Fantasia Readies New Album

Apr 30 | by Natasha

Fantasia is gearing up for the July 13th release of her yet-to-be titled third album on J Records. The album’s official first single is called “Bittersweet.”

The music deets when you read on...

Written by Claude Kelly and produced by Chuck Harmony, “Bittersweet” will impact radio May 10th. The video for the smoldering slow jam will be shot in a few weeks.

The pic above is a sneak peek of the album packaging photo shoot, done by famed photog Derek Blanks. I'm sure her new season of her reality show will be good promo for this album.

Let them hate if they wanna,

Let them hate if they wanna, Tasia don't care. She's been through a lot of adversity in her life which undoubtedly gave her a thick skin. The people on here who are saying negative ugly things about her, I wonder if they've written a book that people bought. I wonder if they've made a tv movie about their life that people watched. I wonder if they have a record contract. I wonder if they've been on broadway. It's so easy to put others down just so you can feel better about yourself, but in the end, you are still less than stellar. So with that said, I love Tasia for the beautiful spirit that she is and I will always buy her music and I will always enjoy it as well. And she doesn't have to change one single thing about herself because I liked her since her very first audition on AI when she was still a nobody. And now, I'm a fan till the very end. So get back haters and go accomplish something of your own.

Go, Fantasia!! She must keep pressing on through to Victory! It's tough, sometimes, when folks keep criticizing and berating. But, that's when we get to see what folks are made of. Keep on pushing, Fanny!!

I am growing tired of the same artists getting recognized for their music. There are many more amazing singers that are so not getting this attention. For instance, what are your thoughts on this singer; Lisa Bello http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hs1XATTxmI She can sang and is undiscovered. Love me some Fantasia but while waiting for her album to drop, there is a lot of unsigned hype that can be appreciated.

We should support young Black

We should support young Black women who realize their Dream, regardless if you like their style of singing or not. They are independent and we should be proud of them. In the music Industry the women are not going to jail or on Drugs like their male counterparts yet they get no credit only hate because people feel they can't sing or dance.

Now. She reminds me of Nikki

Now. She reminds me of Nikki Howard some kind of way. I've been posting negative stuff about sistahs now I'm going totally positive. Fantasha has black features and is beautiful. She is glowing. This is how we can all look. We are diverse, beautiful and interesting. We just need to drop the bad attitude and expand our horizons. Stop thinking someone owes you something. Education and entrepreneurialism is in our genes. There is money out there...let's get it. Each one teach one. Have a great weekend.

once agan I am black myself

once agan I am black myself but when black women down other black women it bothers me because yall should support each other. Once again Kelly don't have to be promoted on this one blog because her song is on everybody else blog including the hip hop and urban blogs her single is the most talked about song right now. Yea she had papa knowles holding her back but Kelly is free and flying like a bird with all her fans and trust me her voice is amazing on this new song and everybody knows she got a hit on her hands this time. Pop is big in the US lady gaga just was named the most influential person in the world and she is straight pop beating out all yo lil favorite urban singers. Kelly is in the genre that accepts her for her don't compare and who love her and she is wit the people who will buy her music not bootleg it and it shows because her last song went #1 in 10 countries won her a grammy and made her a bigger star. Kelly has finally found herself and the world is loving it. She gone succeed with or without you.

Yes, there are few singers

Yes, there are few singers who I can say have talent, Fantasia is one of them. Tasha, I Know Christina Aguilera not black, so to speak, but I hope you will put her new video on your site. In saying that, I would like to say Christian is a young lady I would put in the same catagory as Fantasia as far as talent is concerned . I saw her new video today, and would say, if Christina had stayed in the game, I think she would have been able to pull that video look off. The fact that Lady Gaga has put her stamp on a certain look, all folks are going to say is, Christine is trying to steal Lady Gaga's look. I hope when Fantasia comes back, she returns being who she has always been. Although, I would give Christine higher marks in comparison to Lady Gaga and talent but her new video seem straight out of LADY Gaga's play book.
