Jordin Sparks is reincarnating.

Having burst onto the scene as American Idol‘s youngest champion, the 25-year-old is skewing more Urban these days. Case in point her third studio album, ‘Right Here Right Now.’

Released last week, the project serves as the 25-year-old’s first LP since 2009’s ‘Battlefield’ and marks Sparks’ debut effort for new label Louder Than Life (the imprint of hitmaker Salaam Remi).

To plug to the set, the singer-songwriter stopped by The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 this week; there, she chatted it up about her refreshed sound and new boyfriend Sage The Gemini. Naturally, the subject of ex Jason Derulo was brought up and she didn’t shy away from it.
