Fantasia Returns To The Studio For New Album

Published: Sunday 15th Nov 2015 by Sam

Few artists are as qualitatively consistent as Fantasia.

Indeed, album after album, the American Idol graduate delivers outstanding material.

Like many of her peers though, the current sales climate hasn’t been particularly kind to Ms. Barrino.

Hoping to reverse that trend, she’s back in the lab baking the follow-up to 2013’s ‘Side Effects of You.’

Details below…

Taking to Instagram, the married mother of two shared a snap of herself in a Los Angeles  studio. Word has it that she’s been there for a week:

I think it should be a documentary with this album.. It’s a story #music #tellsitall #newchapter

Interestingly, she also posted a video of her in-between breaks with industry icon Ron Fair (whose credits include Christina Aguilera, Mary J. Blige and many many more):

Yes, yes, and yes! We’re all sorts of ready!

    Good job for her! I wonder how her brothers music career has been going thus far. It’s truly amazing how easily she can get a gold certification, so I really hope that she can earn a platinum one this go around. That would truly be awesome for her. Plus, I’m glad that she’s been able to pull away from those suicidal thoughts. She has a purpose in this world, although she may not have known it for sure back then.

    Take that S*** back to the 1960’s, Etta James just called!

    • King Mark111 /.\ November 15, 2015

      Not even the same kind of music. Fanny is way more authentic. I know id Adelephant was doing J Who numbers, NON of you f*** and hookers would be using her. You clowns are stans of sales and charts.

      • ????Queen Molly???? November 15, 2015

        Lmao pressed.. Adele is queen fanny is trash.

    • rass November 15, 2015

  5. Hivehighness November 15, 2015

    who is Adele vocally against Fantasia? Molly stop

    • ????Queen Molly???? November 15, 2015

      Adele and Beyonce are the only soul singers I use.

      • King Mark111 /.\ November 15, 2015

        HA! Yet they lack soul.

  6. pat November 15, 2015

    Her last album was fantasti . Can’t wait

  7. When Rihsus Says Yes… November 15, 2015

    Fantasia is one of the best R&B artists of the this generation. Unfortunately, she is contracted to RCA Records, and the company has not supported their R&B artists since the late 90’s. See Fantasia, Usher, Chris Brown, Monica, Brandy and Jennifer Hudson as examples.

    • King Mark111 /.\ November 15, 2015

      That’s because those were OG JIVE and J Records artist. RCA always catered to Pop artist, so yea, they’re paying their R&B artist dust. Usher being effected the most, because JT NEVER did bigger numbers than Usher until the label merge.

  8. King Mark111 /.\ November 15, 2015

    Fanny is the prime example of CATERING to YOUR audience. She’s not my cup of tea, but my mother LOVES her. She def have the MJB listeners. And that’s why she always sh1ts on J-Dud, no matter how hard Clive tries to make her the next Whitney or Franklin.

    • Mister_Ken November 15, 2015

      Not to mention Fantasia is an electrifying performer. We haven’t seen a performer of that magnitude since Tina Turner.

  9. Mister_Ken November 15, 2015

    Fantasias last album actually sold more than most female rnb artists who released around the same time. She sold around 400kish and got a Grammy nomination. I’d say she’s doing pretty damn girl and she’s always selling out show. What does Adele or Beyonce have to do with anything? Molly is such a flip flopping troll.

    • King Mark111 /.\ November 15, 2015

      Are you talking aboit Back To Me or Side Effect of You?

      • Mister_Ken November 15, 2015

        Side Effects Of You

    • ????Queen Molly???? November 15, 2015

      No one knows you faagg

      • Mister_Ken November 15, 2015

        And you’re not a real female bro so have several.

      • ????Queen Molly???? November 15, 2015

        Yea ok… Keep hiding under random user names barb_wire…

  10. dee November 15, 2015

    Fantasia is the truth adele can’t sing as good as her adele sell more but very over hyped adele is dry

  11. ????Queen Molly???? November 15, 2015

    Its cute how my opinion still gets you hoeees bothered

  12. MALUCE November 15, 2015

    Fantasia is a beast, incomparable. You can’t liken her to Adele because she is in an entirely different lane.

  13. truth(Janet is QWEEN, was a hot MaDINOSAUR is a flop! Deal!) November 15, 2015

    The truth is @molly eats puussy!

  14. Brandi November 15, 2015

    Name a current R&B artist that has atleast 3 Grammy nominations for every album? Fantasia does! Every albums she’s recorded has been nominated for multiple Grammy’s. At this point, Fantasia has proved her musical power. She’s consistent and her fans allows her to experience. Although I have my favorite Fantasia albums, I can humbly state that all of her albums are quality. Go Fanny!!!

  15. @JanetCIARA_ November 15, 2015

    Im here for it Tasia

  16. Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans November 15, 2015

    Shade her if you must, although I don’t know why you’d need to, but please don’t even delude yourselves into believing that “Bittersweet”, “Free Yourself” and even “When I See You” didn’t slay and drag you to another dimension by your edges. That woman can sing AND sell albums. Let me know when Kandi Burruss can do the same.

  17. rass November 15, 2015

    its really a insult to compare Fantasia to beyonce or adele I put Fantasia up there with the greats like Aretha James and tina turner even MJ yes she’s that damn good just go see her in concert in you will know I cant wait for this album cause she never let us down everything she puts out always turn into magic

  18. B2B November 16, 2015

    Fantasia can SANG!!! It’s sad that she doesn’t get the respect that Adele does. Prime example of white privilge in America; both soul but one does 400k and the other 10M.
    Side Effects of You>> Hello

  19. Theman November 16, 2015

    Every soul singer doesn’t sound the same. Some shout a little more than others. That is off putting to the mainstream audience. Stop trying to knock Adele because urban artists aren’t having great success. Although, they deserve it. Fantasia is incredible. She and Adele are two totally different singers. Adele is superb herself.

  20. A&R November 16, 2015

    Side effects of you, sonically, is arguably one of the best r&b albums that came out that year. It not thee best. She has to start carrying herself like the true artist she is. That’s her only flaw.

  21. StrawberryMuffin24 November 16, 2015

    Yasss I can’t wait love all of Fantasia albums she always delivers!

  22. blaqueice November 17, 2015

    I wish she would go to another record company that will push her music the way it needs to be pushed..Fantasia is very versatile as a singer so they need to think outside of the box with her push two singles at a time.

  23. Michele Young December 14, 2016

    I would love to speak with you guys because I write gospel music and gospel TV shows I have some songs that I know she would sound good singing.
