Jennifer Lopez has signed a new global recording and publishing partnership with BMG ahead of her ninth studio album. Here’s the latest.
This Is Me… Now is the singer’s first album in nine years and a sequel to This Is Me… Then (2002). The newest album was written and recorded at Lopez’s converted home studio in Los Angeles during 2022 and 2023.
The album is produced by Rogét Chahayed (Doja Cat, Travis Scott), Jennifer Lopez, Angel Lopez (Jack Harlow), and Jeff “Gitty” Gitelman (H.E.R).
