It's been a while since we last heard from Adam Lambert, but finally, the American Idol alum had a big announcement for his 33rd birthday on January 29 - he is finally releasing his third album, and according to his Twitter account, it's going to "The Original High."
Lambert also revealed that a yet-untitled single will be released in April, with the album executive produced by Max Martin and Shellback, who, according to Music Times, also produced Taylor Swift's "1989."
Not much is known about the album, however, though portions of the album seemed to be finished already. Lambert recently snapped a photo on Instagram that showed himself listening to one of his songs.
Music Times also said that "The Original High" is going to be Lambert's first solo album in three years, and the first that he's doing with Warner Bros. Records, where he signed on just this year, after disagreements with RCA, his former label.
According to Billboard, Warner Bros Records picked him up less than 24 hours after he was dropped from RCA. He said, "The next day, Warner Bros. contacted us, which I thought was pretty amazing and it was a kind of relief. It was just a scary thing to make that announcement to the world."
Lambert also shared the importance of making the right decision for a new deal. He said, "Finding a home that was the right fit. As you know, leaving RCA was really due to creative differences. They are great people over there. I have a really nice relationship, but it didn't feel like we wanted the same things with this next chapter, and so I chose to part ways with them."
As to how he reconnected with Max and Shellback, Lambert shared on Billboard, "I was working on demos and scheduled a meeting with them. They're two of my favorite producers and at the very top of their game. I love everything they do, and was really excited to sit back down with them after having worked on 'For Your Entertainment'. It was great to reminisce and laugh. It was an easy, humble, casual vibe, and when you're in the studio, that's what you want. I played them a song and we got very excited. They heard my personal growth, and lyrically, the things that I was trying to say. Long story short, they offered me a deal to be executive producers of this album, and that felt like a big moment."
