Soul singer Sade is making a music comeback with a new song recorded for the 'A Wrinkle In Time' movie.
Sade is set to release a new song this year called 'Flower Of The Universe'.
The Grammy Award-winning songstress has agreed to feature on the soundtrack for the film, 'A Wrinkle in Time'.
Director Ava DuVernay shared the news on Twitter.
"I never thought she’d say yes, but asked anyway. She was kind + giving. A goddess. We began a journey together that I’ll never forget. Proud to announce that Sade has created an original song for WRINKLE IN TIME. It’s entitled “Flower of the Universe.” And it’s a dream come true," she wrote.

Sade has not recorded new music since 2010, when she released their sixth studio album, 'Soldier of Love'.
Demi Lovato will also feature on the movie's soundtrack. She revealed on social media that her collaboration with DJ Khaled, 'I Believe', made the cut.
Ava says Demi made magic on the soundtrack.
"My hope was to gather dynamic women artists to craft a majestic soundtrack for Meg’s journey. Demi, thank you for “I BELIEVE.” With our brother, @djkhaled, you made magic," she tweeted.

Happy to share that WRINKLE IN TIME’s soundtrack also includes original music by none other than Sia. I remember being blown away by her SPEAKING VOICE ON THE PHONE. So when she shared the song she wrote for Meg, I was spellbound. It’s called “Magic.” And it is. Thank you, @Sia. pic.twitter.com/PioLASDipQ

Last but not least, I am in love with the music of a young woman hailing from Oakland. Her vibe. Her voice. Her vision for herself. It’s all beautiful. Kehlani’s original song “Let Me Live” is the first heard while watching WRINKLE IN TIME. It’s all about Meg’s inner life. A gem. pic.twitter.com/Slc3yuIyWQ
