Posted April 15, 200718 yr X Factor's Leona hard at work in US PA Entertainment X Factor winner Leona Lewis is in America and hard at work on her debut album, according to reports. PerezHilton.com says the young star is currently recording tracks in Atlanta, Georgia, with Joss Stone's recent collaborator, Dallas Austin. As well as Joss, Austin has worked on hit records by girl band TLC, as well as with Pink. According to a source close to the studio: "JC Chasez (formerly of 'Nsync) has also been in the studio with Dallas this week. "They've been having a great time working together and Leona is really happy with the songs she's done just far." The singer has been steadily building a buzz in America, in part thanks to celebrity blogger Perez, who touts her every chance he gets. American Idol judge Randy Jackson has also been bigging her up, saying that he wants to sign her to his record label in the US.
April 15, 200718 yr She's taking ages to the release her 2nd single. she doesnt want to release anything until late 07
April 15, 200718 yr Why should she release a 2nd single so early? Anyway, Dallas Austin :cheer: Has helped produce albums for Pink & Anastacia ^_^

April 15, 200718 yr Dallas did amazing work with TLC. Hopefully he does something decent with Leona :P
April 15, 200718 yr I hope she takes her time and releases something decent instead of rushing material out.
April 15, 200718 yr See they obviously KNOW she has real talent and could be huge worldwide hence why they haven't rush released an album of lifeless cover versions by now like they normally do. Her single was just ugh I can't stand it - it was awful. I really hope all this time she's taking to work on tracks and work with producers can actually turn itself into something good.

I thought she already had a US label :unsure: It's so strange as I was just wondering yesterday what she was up to :lol:
April 15, 200718 yr To be honest, she'd be best releasing a single around May/June to keep up interest and then another single in September alongside the album (if it does well announce a tour) Then another single in time for Xmas? Edited April 15, 200718 yr by spiker
April 15, 200718 yr I'm glad to hear she is taking her time with this album. I think if they release the right songs from it, it could do quite well....at least it wont be another album of crappy cover versions like most of the other recent x factor stars have done.

I thought that does that mean she's f*cking for tracks? Simon is probably doing it for her
April 16, 200718 yr Glad to hear they are not going down the shayne ward route with her She deserves all the success she can. I just hope people wont of forgotten her by the time she releases her next song :lol:
April 16, 200718 yr To be honest, she'd be best releasing a single around May/June to keep up interest and then another single in September alongside the album (if it does well announce a tour) Then another single in time for Xmas? But the thing is, Simon wants her and she can be a global success with her first album and break into the US market. I doubt she could do this with an album full of covers and even if she released an album of covers and decided to release the second album in the US, I doubt it would be as successful as the hype around her in the US would be gone because it would be too long after she won The X Factor.
