My Way is the sixth solo album by British artist Ian Brown. The album was released on September 28, 2009.^[10] The album's lead single "Stellify" was released on September 21, 2009. In an interview with XFM Manchester he claimed that the song was originally written for Rihanna, but he realised he had created "a great sound" so claimed the track for himself.^[11]

"Just Like You" will be the second single released from the album.

Recording

My Way was inspired by Michael Jackson's Thriller with Brown noting that "we mastered it on the day that Michael Jackson died (too), so I'm taking that as a good omen."^[10]
