Journey of a Gemini (2006)
  
The Best of Donell Jones (2007)

Journey of a Gemini is the fourth studio album by American singer Donell Jones. The album's release date was pushed back numerous times due to record label complications of the Sony BMG merger. The album had been given critical acclaim, but due to very poor promotion by his record label LaFace, sales have been lower than expected. Despite that setback, it was Jones' highest charting album on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart where it topped at number one, while entering the Top 20 on the Billboard 200 chart.

    In many interviews, Donell stated that he recorded 50 songs for the album. Some of those songs started to be leaked during the Summer/Fall period of 2004 due to Mixtape DJ's receiving those songs and putting them in their mixtapes. It was speculated that the album was pushed back numerous times due to the leaking of the songs onto the internet. But Donell stated, it was mainly because of the many complications of the Sony BMG merger that happened during the Spring of 2004. Donell was a bit heated at first when he heard about the leaking on the internet but then said it was sign to his fans that he was working on a new album.
