MULTI-PLATINUM SINGER AND SONGWRITER NELLY FURTADO ANNOUNCES TITLE AND RELEASE DATE OF 5th ALBUM
THE SPIRIT INDESTRUCTIBLE DUE ON JUNE 19TH
FIRST SINGLE, “BIG HOOPS (BIGGER THE BETTER),” AVAILABLE ON APRIL 17TH
April 16, 2012 — Santa Monica, CA — Multi-platinum global superstar Nelly Furtado has revealed the title
and release date of her upcoming fifth album. The Spirit Indestructible will be released on June 19th, 2012.
The album’s first single “Big Hoops (Bigger is Better),” which Furtado co-wrote with Rodney Jerkins,
will be released on April 17th.
Furtado co-wrote each song on The Spirit Indestructible, which, in keeping with her musically eclectic nature,
finds her working with an array of collaborators from across the musical spectrum,
including hip-hop songwriter-producer Salaam Remi (Furtado’s “The Night is Young,” Nas),
pop songwriter-producer Rodney Jerkins (Michael Jackson, Beyonce and Lady Gaga),
veteran metal producer Bob Rock (Metallica), Dutch DJ and EDM producer Tiesto,
rock songwriter and producer John Shanks, and Jamaican reggae producer Da Genius.
A deluxe version of the album will feature several bonus tracks, including Furtado’s collaborations with Fraser T. Smith (Adele), producer and Passion Pit lead singer Mike Angelakos, and a track featuring the Kenyan Boys Choir that Furtado produced herself.
“I began writing these songs around the time I released my Spanish album Mi Plan,” Furtado says.
“I was in a great headspace, feeling refreshed and ready to really deliver in English again.
This album is all about positivity, youth, good energy, and the relentlessness of the spirit.
I want people to live this music the way we did when we wrote it.?I want them to jump, dance, scream,
laugh, cry, love, and vibe to it, and to turn it up very loud everywhere.”
The Spirit Indestructible is Furtado’s first English-language studio album since 2006’s double-platinum Loose,
which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, was certified multi-platinum in 32 countries,
and sold 10 million copies worldwide. Loose also spawned three hit singles,
including the No. 1’s “Promiscuous” and “Say It Right,” both of which earned Furtado Grammy Award nominations.
The Canadian-born singer, songwriter, actress, and philanthropist, who is of Portuguese descent,
has enjoyed a vibrant and successful career as a multi-language superstar.
By embracing different cultures and genres, she has helped define musical diversity for a new generation ever since unleashing her debut, 2000’s double-platinum Whoa, Nelly!, which spawned “I’m Like A Bird,”
followed by 2003’s gold Folklore, whose “Forca” became the official anthem of the 2004 European Cup Football Championship. In 2009, she released her first Spanish-language album,
the Latin Grammy Award-winning Mi Plan, which reached No. 1 on the U.S. Latin Billboard chart and swept Canada’s Juno awards with five wins including Album of the Year.
In total, Furtado has sold more than 16 million albums and 18 million singles worldwide.
She has racked up many international honors, including a Grammy Award, a BRIT Award,
a Latin Grammy Award, World Music Award and 10 Juno awards.

I would rather her push it back. More of a chance for a #1, and a better chance for more sales.

Even if Justin releases that day and will obviously get the #1 spot, I don't think that will hurt her sales, I think it will help since her album will be right next to his for those customers to snatch up too! If anything i think they should push it UP a week so she can still have a chance at topping the chart and still benefit from Justin's crowd he'll bring into store for physical sales.

Cmon now Nelly will be lucky if she goes top 10 unless bigger hoops is a hit. Justin numbers will be big for weeks.

Come on now, you think everybody is made out of money? Those little kids will not be there for Nelly.
