The Toronto native released his new single, \u201cPast Tense,\u201d today, March 13, 2026, signaling his first solo output in over ten years and his debut as a fully independent artist.<\/p>\n<p>The track serves as the lead single for a forthcoming full-length studio album scheduled for release in Summer 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Breaking away from the traditional major label structure, Lewis is releasing the project under his own imprint, Reimagery Inc. The move represents a \u201ccreative reset\u201d for the artist, prioritizing creative ownership and artistic restraint over commercial trends.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the high-octane production common in contemporary R&amp;B, \u201cPast Tense\u201d is characterized by its use of \u201cwarmth and space.\u201d The arrangement deliberately avoids dense production, instead centering on Lewis\u2019s signature vocal\u2014described here as grounded and unforced\u2014to drive the narrative.<\/p>\n<p>While the R&amp;B genre often focuses on the friction of heartbreak, Lewis describes \u201cPast Tense\u201d as a study in emotional intelligence rather than a standard breakup song.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSometimes the most powerful thing you can do is listen,\u201d Lewis stated regarding the release. \u201cAllowing myself to be an interpreter of the message hidden in the music.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPast Tense\u201d was written by Glenn along with Juwayon Clarke and produced by Seige Monstracity. <\/p>\n<p>The upcoming album is expected to expand on these themes, focusing on accountability and the perspective gained from a decade away from the spotlight. This body of work marks a departure from Lewis\u2019s earlier hits, aiming for a \u201cconversational\u201d tone that reflects his growth as both a songwriter and a man.<\/p>\n<p>This will be the first album from Glenn Lewis since <a href=\"https:\/\/youknowigotsoul.com\/glenn-lewis-to-release-upcoming-album-moment-of-truth-on-august-20th\">he released \u201cMoment of Truth\u201d<\/a> in 2013.
