Hits Set Tees Up Next Christina Aguilera Album

Beyond marking Christina Aguilera's first decade in the business, the Nov. 11 Target exclusive "Keeps Getting Better: A Decade of Hits" serves as a sneak preview for the artist's next RCA studio album.
Aguilera tells Billboard the as-yet-untitled set will arrive in summer 2009 and will be mostly produced by Linda Perry.
"With my last album, I had music that was very '20s, '30s and '40s, and was very detailed and part of a very specific genre and sound," she says. "But with this new album, I wanted to go in a completely opposite direction-a very futuristic, robotic sound and computer-sounding vocals. I'm experimenting with my voice in ways I've never done before, almost like a technical, computer-generated sound, which is different for me because I'm the type of vocalist that just belts. I'm always inspired by new things because I get bored."
"The album is very pop and very upbeat, and it's inspired by [Andy] Warhol and the late-'60s scene," says RCA senior VP of marketing Scott Seviour, who adds that Aguilera has been in the studio as often as she can, considering she became a mother in January. "Once you hear the new material you'll have a very clear idea what the direction of it is."
As for "Keep Getting Better," it includes new versions of "Genie in a Bottle" and "Beautiful," titled "Genie 2.0" and "You Are What You Are (Beautiful)," respectively, plus the new songs "Keeps Getting Better" and "Dynamite." Staples such as "Dirty," "Come On Over" and "Hurt" also appear.
Produced by Perry, the new and remixed tracks all feature "futuristic sounds with beats driven more toward dance music," Aguilera says. "This time around, I'm playing with this superhero element based on the fact that fans have grown up with me since I was 17 and have continually supported my changes throughout the years."
Aguilera is planning to tour next year.

I'm really excited for the new album! And the next tour 
I also like that she's with Perry for most of the album and not DJ Premier! But I would like for her to team up with some newer producers she hasn't been with yet.

Too late to join the bandwagon!
Poor Christina!
Just when her contemporaries Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears went into this 'future/techno' pop direction a few years back, she decided to go back to basics and release a 40's inspired album.
She was probably hoping to stand out from the crowd since everybody else was going with techno/dance pop.
Now, she's eating her words and going in the same direction as Britney and Justin.
Too bad, Britney and Justin have already made a mark on this new music genre, while she is just starting out.
The techno/pop scene is already too crowded for Ms. Aguilera, and obviously, the listening public has already rejected her as a dance pop artist.

You're so pretentious.... Xtina didn't make "b2b" just for being different from the other singers... "b2b" was the album she always wanted to do, it was like a dream come true for her, the kind of music she heard during her life.
She just change with every single album (teen pop, latin, urban, 20's-30's-40's and now futuristhic), I think it's easy to understand, but maybe not for you...

Yes Britney. 900k+, hit singles, amazing reviews for the album. Same goes for Justin. 4 million, hit singles, amazing reviews. Christina is already failing in the hit singles part, will she sell or get amazing reviews? IDK. Her so called "best" album Stripped bombed with critics, so we'll see.
