Vocal wonder Christina Aguilera is still hard at work on her new album.

The follow-up to 2012’s ‘Lotus’ has been several years in the making, yet we’re hearing 2016 may very well be “the” year of its arrival.

To whet fans appetites, Xtina shared a shot of herself in the studio putting pen to paper in the recording booth.

With the likes of Da Internz and Linda Perry on-board, we hope the diva is baking them bops that will place her atop of the Pop back. Or at least in the upper echelon.

Pending then, check out some of our favourite Aguilera anthems below…

Tank teams up with Siya, Chris Brown & Sage the Gemini for ‘#BDay‘, the latest cut lifted to support his January 22nd release ‘Sex, Love, & Pain.’

Unlikely to impress those of Tank‘s fans who prefer his usually older & wiser sound the jam features a sample of Drake‘s ‘Marvin’s Room’ and sits alongside cuts on the LP that feature Rich Homie Quan and Yo Gotti.

How the cut fares when compared to  recent releases launched by his closest competitors Sam Smith and Tyrese?

When he isn’t wreaking havoc on ‘Scream Queens’ Nick Jonas can be found flaunting his passion for fashion front row at many a show.

His latest trip?

To London to catch what TopMan has to offer this year where he rubbed shoulders with the model David Gandy before he returns to the U.S. to record material for his forthcoming LP.

The project will follow the release of his self-titled set which delivered the song ‘Jealous’ and sees him tasked with competing with chart-topping efforts by his biggest rivals Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Jason Derulo…and the rising Urban Pop force that is Zayn Malik.

After pushing TLC & Usher to Pop royal status in the 90s the record executive LA Reid set out to do the same with fresh faces as the head of Def Jam in 2005.

Joining him in his mission was the rapper turned exec Jay-Z who, keen to replicate the solo success of his then-girlfriend Beyonce and a ‘Goodies‘-supplying starlet named Ciara– picked up two new artists named Teairra Mari and Rihanna.

The rest as they say is history.

Now, Reid has revealed that Rihanna may not have been treated as a priority at the label if not for moves Beyonce made to support her behind the scenes.
