As the Holiday’s loom, it’s pastures new for Fantasia.
The vivacious vendor of Rock-Soul has taken flight from her longtime label home, RCA Records. A fact further cemented by her absence on their official site.
Sources close to the situation tell That Grape Juice that the parting was amicable and actually the fulfilment of her contract rather than anything arduous.
It does, however, bring to an end a relationship that dates back to her American Idol win. Indeed, Fantasia’s first three albums were released via J Records, while the following two were issued by RCA after J folded and its roster was absorbed into the Pop focal imprint.
Wasting no time releasing new material, Ms. Barrino is prepping a festive LP named ‘Christmas After Midnight.’
Due via indie label Concord, the set arrives October 6th.
