Christina Aguilera fans, affectionately called #Fighters, may be gearing up to help her suit up for chart battle sooner than they think.
The GRAMMY winner, who took a six-year break between the releases of her 2012 (‘Lotus’) and 2018 (‘Liberation’) albums, promised she’d never take that extended of a hiatus again.
And, if the words of the famed music producer who is helping to helm tracks for her next project is to be believed, the songstress is set to keep that promise.
See what we mean inside:
In April, Xtina told ‘Health’ magazine she – despite being ‘months away’ from an official announcement – was working on two new albums (an English and Spanish effort).
While some fans perceived the statement as suggestion official news of a new project would arrive this year, GRAMMY-winning songwriter-producer Federico Vindver recently took to press to confirm as much.
Chatting our friends at MusicRadar, the Buenos Aires-born bop maker – famous for work he’s done with Kanye West, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, Mariah Carey, and many more – got tongues wagging with his update on Aguilera’s yet-titled seventh studio album.
“We’re finishing the Justin Timberlake album and it’s beautiful. Super enjoyable. And I’m also finishing Christina Aguilera’s album which will also be out this year.”
Granted, there’s yet to be official word from Xtina’s camp but Vindver’s statement will ramp up excitement nonetheless.
If true, the effort and accompanying era will be her first under Roc Nation management (which she joined last year as we reported here).
I have every album of hers and usually will preorder but I’ma wait on this one. I need at least 3 videos from the album and actual promotion for me to consider it this time. The last few CDs she put out were underpromoted and lazy AF
I agree 💯 she is struggling after back to basics. All she needs is some strong material in her upcoming album and a “Dua Lipa” team to supporting💅🏿 She gave up the whole project once the lead single flopped and it’s sad🤳🏿😫
She did it with Bionic, Burlesque, Lotus and Liberation. I’ll be damned if she troll my ass again lol
Will she promote it like Liberation? Or will she pretend it doesn’t exist when she gets a bad critique, like she did with Bionic and Lotus? Inconsistency and unfulfilled potential have been the major themes of her career.
Hunnie, this should be her 9th studio album. Y’all forgot her other two albums, the Spanish debut & Xmas album💅🏿 Hopefully she will get her lazy ass up to promote more singles on this new era. 🤳🏿 Please bringing the stripped era energy, Queen! ❤️
Liberation charted #6 on the Billboard 200 after an 8 year break with the lack of promo y’all say she had. In addition to a world tour and Vegas residency. So the haters can suck it.
The one topping the charts today can’t hold a candle next to Christina. PeriodT
Roc Nation is just the cherry on top. Us #Fighters are unbothered.
2012 lotus —- 2018 liberation. It was a 6 years break. Hunnie, u can’t count? 💅🏿
