Appearently the procuder she worked with tweeted somehting about Elephant, but that rumour started before the pushbacks so i think or they changed the lead or it didn't make the cut, or it just doesn't exist

She's described this new album as more womanly and sexier. I'm not exactly a fan but I'm interested in where she's taking this next album. In my opinion, her debut was good but it was too unoriginal and didn't do justice for Alexandra's voice (with the few exceptions, The Silence, Bad Boys).

I hope her second album really shows her at her best, some original pop songs because she needs her own stamp rather than trying to copy Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Rihanna etc. She's so talented!

The album sounds like a very club/edgy album going by the producers...

She's worked with Michael Woods who did Example Change the way you Kiss Me and Sandy Vee who did Only Girl for Rihanna...and also Rico Love who did Commander and Motivation for Kelly....

I'm very excited to hear the new direction, and I think she has moved away from the tacky pop of Broken Heels and Start Without You...as much as I like those songs, the sound is getting dated...

Alexandra said this in the Star so it looks like it will be more dance than RnB.

ALEXANDRA Burke is ready to make her a big comeback with help from Colombian DJ legend Erick Morillo. And the former X Factor champ also wants another crack on the judging panel of telly’s top talent show. The 23-year-old has spent a year recording her follow-up to Overcome with Strictly Rhythm man Erick, 40, above right.
Alex told me: “I’ve been doing some amazing stuff with him in LA. One track in particular is very special.“Erick is a very talented producer and I’m sure I will be working with him a lot.

I'm not a big fan of hers but think she has a great voice. So long as it doesn't sound like generic David Guetta crap, I'll be rooting for her.

i think she's staying away from redone and guetta (although she's never worked with the latter i do believe).

Well to be fair none of the X-factor winners/acts are orginal. They are always marketed as the next someone and their debut albums reflect that. Leona kind of moved away from what they marketed her as on her first album, hopefully Alex will do the same.
