Kylie Minogue set to start recording a new album

KYLIE Minogue is set to begin work on a new album next year.

The 54-year-old superstar signed with industry giant BMG back in 2017 to release chart-topping albums Golden and Disco and record label president Alistair Norbury revealed that she will start on her 16th studio album next year.

He said: “So next year we’ll start our third album with Kylie, and we only expected to do one. So the roster is building to a size where it is almost self-sustaining. We already know our first Q1 and Q2 releases for next year.”

The Real Groove hitmaker, who back in 2020 became the first woman to top the charts in five different decades with the release of Disco, started her pop career under industry legends Stock Aitken Waterman back in 1987 before signing with Deconstruction Records in 1993 and eventually moved to Parlophone just before the turn of the millennium, where she achieved further success with worldwide hits Spinning Around and Can’t Get You Out of My Head.

Norbury said Kylie was led to BMG after fellow 1980s singer Rick Astley cut a deal with the label and, because she joined the company, other musicians such as former One Direction star Louis Tomlinson and Anywhere songstress Rita Ora decided to follow suit.

He told Headliner Magazine: “On the label side, we very much enjoy this unique position of being our own entity with our own purpose. That works brilliantly when you are talking to our core artist community, which is iconic, established artists.” |
