Once Leona Lewis is in the zone, it’s hard to get her to stop recording. Fans, critics, and peers have been anxiously awaiting the release of the Brit beauty’s upcoming studio album ‘GlassHeart’. However, Leona recently revealed that due to an unforeseen burst of creativity, she has decided to postpone the release of the album until 2012. This comes as a shock to those who assumed that since the singer recently released the first single from the album titled “Collide,” which peaked at number three, that she was still scheduled to drop her third studio album in November.
“Just wanted to update everyone on the album! I’m feeling so inspired right now and have decided to continue recording,” she tweeted. In a later post she added, “I have a collection of songs that I’m so in love with and I know there’s more to be born so it means the album will come early next year.”
In related news, Leona expressed that her record label is “scared” about ‘GlassHeart’ because it features a wide range of styles, genres and beats. They are concerned that fans may not warm to it.
Good news Leona Lewis fans, we’re in the end of 2011! Hopefully the wave of success ‘Collide’ is riding on will carry over into the New Year. Two thumbs up to Leona for caring more about the creativity of music instead of the business and politics of it â true fans may not like the decision but they will respect it.
Leona Lewis’ fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of her new album, GlassHeart. After much speculation and anticipation, it has recently been revealed that the singer will not be releasing the album until 2012. This news comes as a shock to many who had expected the album to drop before year’s end. It looks like we’ll all just have to wait a little bit longer for Leona Lewis’ newest music!
Known for her powerful vocals and emotionally charged lyrics, Leona Lewis has become an international sensation since first appearing on British TV show The X Factor in 2006. She quickly rose to fame with hits such as “Bleeding Love” and “Better In Time”. Her debut album Spirit was released in 2007 and set numerous records including having seven singles reach the top 5 in the UK Singles Chart.
Though this recent announcement may leave some disappointed, there’s no doubt that when GlassHeart is finally available next year it will be worth the wait! Fans everywhere are eager to hear what she has up her sleeve musically for this new album; one thing is for sure – it’s going to be amazing!
Background Of Leona Lewis
Leona Lewis is a British singer-songwriter, who rose to fame after winning the third series of the UK’s The X Factor in 2006. She has since become one of the most successful artists of all time, selling over 20 million records worldwide and achieving ten top 10 singles in the United Kingdom alone. Her debut album Spirit was released in 2007 and has been certified as seven times platinum by the British Phonographic Industry.
However, despite her success, Leona’s career hasn’t necessarily gone according to plan; she recently announced that her next studio album Glassheart would be delayed until 2012 due to production difficulties. This comes just months after she parted ways with long-term label Syco Music – owned by Simon Cowell – leaving many fans wanting more from their beloved starlet.
It remains to be seen how this will affect Leona’s future music releases but it looks like we’ll have to wait until next year before we can get our hands on some new material from her!
Reasons For Delaying The Album Release
While Leona Lewis’ fans have been eagerly anticipating the release of her highly anticipated album Glassheart, they were dealt a blow when she announced that its release would be delayed until 2012. While this has come as a disappointment to many, there are several reasons behind this decision.
First and foremost, it appears that production difficulties have caused the delay in releasing the album – something which is not uncommon for artists. It takes time and money to create an album of such high quality and industry standards, so ensuring that these issues are resolved before its launch is essential for any artist’s success.
Additionally, it could be speculated that Leona’s departure from long-term label Syco Music may also have had an impact on why Glassheart will not be released this year. As record labels often play an important role in organising promotional activities and marketing campaigns surrounding albums, without their help it can be difficult to do justice to releases like Glassheart. This could explain why we won’t see the album until next year instead.
The wait might seem long but hopefully by taking the necessary steps now, Leona Lewis will make sure that Glassheart lives up to expectations when it eventually hits shelves!
Conclusion
I. Summary of Leona Lewis’ Career
Leona Lewis has been a prominent figure in the music industry for over a decade now. She rose to fame after winning the third series of The X Factor UK in 2006, and has since released four studio albums – Spirit (2007), Echo (2009), Glassheart (2012) and Christmas, with Love (2013). Over this time period, she has become one of Britain’s best-selling artists.
II. Reasons Behind Delaying the Release of ‘Glassheart’
In 2011, it was announced that Leona would be delaying the release of her fourth album until 2012 due to scheduling conflicts between herself and her record label Syco Music. Despite being close to completion at this point, Leona felt it was important to take some extra time to ensure that each song on the album met her high standards musically before releasing them into the public domain.
III. Final Thoughts
Overall, I think Leona made a wise decision by taking extra time with Glassheart as opposed to rushing through its production process just so that it could be released earlier than originally planned. This attention to detail is something I greatly admire from an artist such as Leona who clearly puts immense thought into both their music and performances alike – all while remaining highly passionate about what they do!
