9 Lives is the debut album from R&B singer Kat DeLuna. It was released in the United States on August 7, 2007.
DeLuna co-wrote each song with RedOne, who also produced the album. The album debuted at number 58 on the U.S. Billboard 200, selling about 11,000 copies in its first week.[1] Its U.S. sales so far: 80,000+.
The album's first single "Whine Up" was successful but performed under expectations. The second single was supposed to be "Am I Dreaming" which she shot a music video for, but was scrapped due to the album's performance. Kat DeLuna and producers decided to go with another up tempo song like "Whine Up" so in place of "Am I Dreaming" they will release "Run The Show" featuring a new rap by Busta Rhymes. "Am I Dreaming" might be released if "Run The Show" performs well in the charts.
Late in February 2008, the album was silently removed from iTunes. No reason was given, but mostly likely because of the albums Re-Release. The singles for "Whine Up" and "Run the Show" remain, however.
