The First Seed is the first solo studio album from American R&B singer Yummy Bingham. It was released in the United Kingdom on October 9, 2006. The album is entirely written by Yummy Bingham with main production from Rockwilder. The album was originally due for a US release on September 27, 2005, through Motown. It was then delayed to March 21, 2006, then delayed again due to the lack of attention received by the singles "Come Get It", "Is It Good To You" and "One More Chance" in addition of business reasons (Bingham breaking her management deal with Muzic Park Records' co-CEO Randy Parker). Still signed to Motown in the USA, Bingham had been signed up in June 2006 by Motown's UK parent label Island Records Group who enlisted Bingham as one of the Notting Hill Carnival guests, simultaneously launching her debut UK single "Come Get It" on radios and televisions. The single has been released in the UK on October 2, followed by the release of her debut album on October 9. It is currently unknown when (or whether) the album will be released in the United States.
