“She was with me every step of the way: ’Mom, you can do this.’When I get discouraged and I get like,’This is tiring, this is wearing me out, I’m just not at that point,’she’d just go, ’No, mom, you can do this, get up, get up,’” Houston said of 15-year-old Bobbi Kristina in an interview Tuesday. “She encourages me and inspires me, when I look at her and I look at her eyes and I see myself, I go,’OK, I can do this. I can do this.’”

The 44-year-old superstar is releasing”I Look to You”on Sept. 1. It’s her first album in years on Arista Records. On Tuesday evening, she premiered several tracks before an industry audience that included her only child, mother Cissy Houston, cousin Dionne Warwick, Alicia Keys and Diane Sawyer.

Houston is one of the world’s best-selling artists of all time, but her career stalled for years and her pop princess image imploded as she battled drugs and endured a troubled (and now defunct) marriage to Bobby Brown.

“I kind of got comfortable with being left alone, just being a mom who would take her daughter off to school and who would pick her up from school. I liked that vibe, I liked that feeling, because I never really had the opportunity,”said Houston. “I was always traveling with her all the time.”

She credits her mentor, music mogul Clive Davis, who worked with her on the album, with pushing her to come back to the recording studio.

“He called me one day and he said,’It’s time.’And I said,’Time for what?’ And he says,’Time for you to come back and sing for us again,’” she said.”It’s very special and I feel humbled to be asked to do it again and want to be heard.”

Davis previewed nine tracks at the event, including one song co-written by Alicia Keys and two by R. Kelly. David Foster, Diane Warren.
