Private Affair is the eighth studio album of Filipino singer Kyla, released in the Philippines on November 30, 2010 by PolyEast Records. After successfully promoting her albums in Malaysia and Indonesia,[1] it was announced that Kyla was planning to release a new album with her label in early 2010.[2] Originally slated for a May 2010 release, the album's release date was pushed back to September. Due to heightened international activity, it was, again, pushed back to November 2010.

Production

In recording the album, Kyla hoped to produce songs that sounded like vintage Motown with "old school R&B, jazz and pop." [3] It is "composed mostly of melodic ballads" with few upbeat and mid-tempo tracks added.[4] She included one cover in the album, Bee Gees' "How Deep Is Your Love", which features acoustic guitars and is a personal favorite of her partner, Rich Alvarez.[5]

Kyla, along with Jay R, Kris Lawrence and Billy Crawford, wrote and produced the track "Don't Tie Me Down".[3] "A Song for the Love in Summer" was written by her father.[3]
