JLo premiered the teaser trailer for her official first single from her long-delayed album "Love?" on Vimeo (which has since been removed). La Lopez, who stopped by good friend Leah Remini's shitty new "The View" talk show ripoff called "The Talk" gushed over the single and also said she had no idea when the album will come out because they're still working on it. i have a strange feeling the album won't be out until 2011, because if you think like a business person, most likely Def Jam will want to drop the album simultaneously with her stint as a new judge on American Idol. That way she won't be forgotten like MySpace.
I remember critics saying because JLo is over 40 that she needs to mature her sound. Her voice ain't nowhere near adult contemporary, so she needs to stay away from that genre. What Jen needs is to sing over a hot dance/pop beat (not the shitty predictable sounds of David Guetta and RedOne) and some edgy hip hop. Find a couple of hungry unknown producers that sound like nothing on the radio right now and hire some songwriters that can actually write beyond the standard nursery rhyme lyricism we're getting lately. A little diversity never hurt anybody. Look at Rihanna. Not someone with the strongest voice in the world, and barely writes her own songs (except for a few on Rated R). But she changes up her style and music with every album and it's expanding her audience (with a bit of help from Def Jam who keeps shoving her down our throats). I understand you're pretty busy raising twins and making sure Skeletor doesn't tip over and turn to ash, but your money is long so take a damn risk and pay the best writers and producers to give your ass a good hit (pun intended).
