The Concert for a New South Africa (Durban) is a posthumous live album by Whitney Houston, released by RCA Records on November 8, 2024, to commemorate the historic 30th anniversary of both Houston's first concert in South Africa as well as the first concert by a Western pop artist in South Africa.[1] The album also features a studio recording of "Love Is", a ballad written exclusively for Houston by Carvin Winans of The Winans, from a 1990 recording session and produced by Houston and Nat Adderley Jr., as well as a remixed version by Winans himself.
