So we've known for a while Enrique was going to have more than a few collaborations on the upcoming album. We've known about Akon, Wisin y Yandel and Juan Luis Guerra and now a French article has revealed two other collaborations with Nicole Scherzinger and Usher.

 

Strangely the article doesn't mention a song Enrique has done with TI which was talked about by Redone in a radio interview which he claimed would be the first single. The article does talk about the first single "I Like It" out next week as well as a description of some of the tracks on it as well as it's overall direction.

 

You can read the original French version here.

 

I've copied and pasted a translation done by a fan on Enrique's official site here I've done a bit of further clean up of the translation..

 

"I Like It" is the title of the new single from Enrique Iglesias produced by RedOne (Lady Gaga), whose radio transmission is set at April 28, 2010 announcing the half English half Spanish album of the new Azzaro Pour Homme muse released in the summer, July 5, according to Polydor. Very soon on Music for free listening-radio.com, the song "I Like It" and will formalize the return in 2010, which is more bold, the Spanish singer more than fifty million albums sold worldwide in ten-year career. After one and half years of fruitful work, Enrique Iglesias will make a comeback this year with the single "I Like It" and a new album half English half Spanish scheduled for July 5, 2010. And like The Black Eyed Peas and Lady Gaga the Madrid artist wished to renew, mix sounds, take a turn artistic collaboration with other artists, not necessarily from the same genres, he created , engage, have fun and make fun of course.

 

On the production side of the album in 2010 half English half Spanish Enrique Iglesias nearly three years after "Insomniac," he found the key for highly effective , up-tempo songs in the 90's now works with RedOne (Lady Gaga), Mark Taylor ("Broken Strings by James Morrison duet with Nelly Furtado) and Carlos Paucar (Shakira, Lionel Richie). The Senegalese rapper Akon also signed co-production, and features on the pop reggae track "One Day At A Time," Nicole Scherzinger (Pussycat Dolls) also provides a duet on the very sexy haunting "I Can Feel Your Heartbeat, Usher is also part of "Dirty Dancer" an ultra efficient resolute club track. And some last minute surprises are expected ... To discover from April 28, 2010 in radio and soon on our free online radio, the new single from Enrique Iglesias, "I Like It" is the first single from his new album, is an electro-pop track produced by RedOne (Lady Gaga), lifting away the table about the direction the music choices.

 

"It's funny because when we started working on new songs, I wanted something different" , Enrique Iglesias admitted that embodying seduction charismatic fragrance iconic character distinguished Azzaro Pour Homme. "The result is certainly the album's most up-tempo and more festive that I ever recorded, but ultimately it is a album that I like enormously. Everything was done so logical and obvious to me. It begins where I left my audience with 'Takin' Back My Love ', allows me to reconnect with the dance rhythms of my debut (' Bailamos', 'Rhythm Divine'), while sounding very 2010! The album includes both titles in English and Spanish, in short, it's very me! " . No doubt "I Like It" with its punchy chorus and his gimmick wink to the famous standard "All Night Long" by Lionel Richie, should quickly make lots of noise. New muse Azzaro Pour Homme, Enrique Iglesias has ceased to be visible and noticed over the last month since the beginning of their sublime campaign by the talented photographer Steven Klein (Madonna, Brad Pitt). The campaign should continue and be strengthened throughout 2010, providing visibility of the first class to the Spanish artist. Sexy, simple, warm, generous, both in private and on stage, full of humor, brilliant and talented, Iglesias has finally returned in 2010 with a new album already fourteenth good ... And so much better as he began to miss his fans terribly!

It will be interesting to see what the overall sound will be like seeing there is so many collobartions.

It looks like it's going to be a mix of sounds. Incidently it's looks like there's some eleventh hour changes happening to the album.

 

Also whether the single has changed since Redone's interview or they simply changes rappers the lead single "I Like It" features Pitbull.

I've seen a tracklisting and on the album he has worked with usher and akon, which I dont think bodes well. I cant stand those artists and their music, so wont be supporting this album im afraid.

The bad thing with so many styles is that there's always a few songs on it that you don't like. I don't think this'll be Enrique's best album.. (understatement).
