Posted January 5, 20169 yr http://www.mtv.co.uk/sites/default/files/styles/carousel_wide/public/mtv_uk/arc/2015/07/02/ce5a8a94-206f-11e5-bd9d-a4badb20dab5.jpg Swedish popstar Zara Larsson has confirmed that the expected release date of her first international studio album is March 2016. She claims it will feature mostly new songs, however "3 or 4 songs" from '1' (her first full length album in Scandinavia) may make the track listing - I would presume 'Rooftop', 'Uncover', 'Carry You Home' and 'Weak Heart' are most likely.
January 9, 20169 yr Never Forget You and Lush Life are serious tunes so I think I may check this album out. She deserves to be big
March 23, 20169 yr Coming in June. She's not sure if she's going to release another single before the album! If I was Zara I would have dropped the album within the next two weeks, I've got no idea why she's not put up a pre-order for the album yet. 1m70eOKjgqc
April 14, 20169 yr So 'Never Forget You' was performed on both the Today Show and Fallon in America which has helped it re-climb to #10 on USA iTunes. Thankfully radio seem to be supporting 'Never Forget You' and streaming is helping the song progress nicely, I'm guessing top 10 in the USA is looking likely which should help for the third re-release of 'Lush Life'. Larsson’s upcoming album, dropping in June, doesn’t have a title yet, but the pop star tells EW it will include even more tracks co-written and produced by MNEK, and that a collaboration with (also Swedish) hitmaker Max Martin is in the works. Larsson dishes more on meeting her celebrity obsession Beyoncé for the first time (she cried) and why Sweden does pop music better in the interview below. What are those songs like? [They’re]more dancey, but also more chill. [There’s] even a mid-tempo, slow song. He’s still got that MNEK sound. It’s so distinct, like ’90s house mixed with modern EDM. Why do you think your style meshes so well with his? I think we just vibe really well on a personal level. We’re not afraid to speak our minds, and when people are not afraid to speak their mind, that’s when you create magic. We don’t really criticize each other; we just let each other flow. You also have some sessions with Max Martin coming up, right? I’m hopefully going to work with him when I come back to L.A. When I was there, he was like, “Frankly, I don’t really have the time for you right now” because he was finishing up Ariana [Grande]’s album and finishing up a few songs from The Weeknd’s album, which I respect, because he was like, “I want to give you my full attention, and if I have other projects I’m thinking about, I can’t do that. I don’t want to run in and out of the session — five minutes here, five minutes there — just to put my name on it.” He’s super sweet. Are there any other producers or tracks or album title? That’s the last thing I’m going to decide. Producers — I’m so bad at that as well. I don’t really know a lot of producers. I’m just into Beyoncé. If I get a nice vibe from [a producer], I don’t really care if they‘ve done blah blah blah. If they don’t give a nice vibe, I absolutely don’t care if they’ve done 20 number ones, so it’s mostly about the person. I think I work with a lot of producers who might be the next big thing. I love The Monsters and the Strangerz from Miami. Everyone I’m working with is great; [they’re all like] “Oh, I produced ‘Sorry’ for Justin Bieber” or “I produced three tracks on the Rihanna album.” I do pop. Pop is everything from The Weeknd to Taylor Swift to Beyoncé to Rihanna, [and my album is] a good mix of everything. There are some very soulful songs on there, but also electric dance songs, and also pure pop, darker songs with a trap vibe. When’s it out?June. I know that!
April 14, 20169 yr I don't like Never Forget You AT ALL but I'm in love with Lush Life. I can't wait for it to smash here.
April 14, 20169 yr Is she serious - no new single before June? Way to put a halt to that star power she was gaining here :lol:
April 16, 20169 yr Why though? It's not as if Lush Life is falling down the chart? It's still doing incredibly well on AirPlay. I think we will get the new single in May.
April 16, 20169 yr Is she serious - no new single before June? Way to put a halt to that star power she was gaining here :lol: she will be more than fine, after the mnek duet, the success of 'lush life' and that timid feature she has the luxury of taking more time and actually can afford to. also the delay seeks to suggest they're looking for her to record something now to really make her name, no wonder max martin has been roped in...
April 18, 20169 yr she tweeted she's in the studio with Stargate and Charlie Puth https://hamadamania.com/2016/04/17/zara-lar...asher-stargate/

June 26, 20169 yr http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1013039 Zara Performed 4 new songs live! 'Permission', 'Mississippi' , 'Wanna' and 'Funeral'
June 26, 20169 yr This has made me so excited for the album! I need the studio version, I love all of them but Wanna and Permission are my favorites.
June 29, 20168 yr We need a new single in July, it's been too long. Love Lush Life still but I need something new to put on blast.
June 30, 20168 yr It's not been a total bomb? It's managed to go too 20 in the UK and went #1 around Europe (France, Germany etc) and they have the closing ceremony performance.
June 30, 20168 yr It's not been a total bomb? It's managed to go too 20 in the UK and went #1 around Europe (France, Germany etc) and they have the closing ceremony performance. I'm talking about its UK success - I'm sure her label thought it would have been a huge summer anthem considering how well Lush Life has done and how well her collab with Tinie did. Instead it limps around in the top 20 and is plummeting on iTunes.
June 30, 20168 yr I'm sure her label will look at the bigger picture and be delighted that she's managed to get her first French and German number one, this song has helped her get her name out further, maybe #16 is a disappointing peak but at least it's successfully managed to peak in the top twenty.
