Christina Aguilera has an English and Spanish album on the way
Demand for a new Christina Aguilera album is expected from fans. With that being said, the Grammy Award winner has revealed she is wasting no time and will be treating fans with TWO new records. In a July 2021 interview with TooFab, the "Dirrty" chart-topper has revealed one will be another English LP, while the other will hear her revisit her Latin roots and be in Spanish.
"I've always kind of inserted different styles within my albums," Aguilera said, adding, "The last record kind of explored me coming out of a time where I was feeling like I was coming out of a place where I wasn't so happy and I wanted to rediscover who I was as an artist and being able to do that again and have the freedom to do that, so now I'm in really great place." The two upcoming releases are "two different feels." She joked she was a "freakin' teenager like baby" when her first Spanish album "Mi Reflejo" came out. The outlet notes fans can expect a more mature sound in 2021.
"I'm culturally exploring my roots a little bit more, I'm singing about my father and that's kind of always been sort of an interesting, private but layered topic for me," Aguilera continued. "So I'm really exploring that on the Spanish side with a really special song, and hopefully the fans will really appreciate that honesty and love, coming from the place I am now."
