Jennifer Lopez Parts Ways With BMG After Disappointing 2024 Album

Jennifer Lopez has officially parted ways with her record label BMG following the underwhelming sales of her 2024 album This Is Me... Now, which only reached No. 55 on the UK charts. The split represents a new chapter for Lopez, who is now operating as an independent artist and released her new single Birthday through a smaller label amid her ongoing Up All Night Live 2025 tour. Her recent performances have featured emotionally charged new songs inspired by her recent divorce from Ben Affleck, reflecting personal changes she has experienced. Despite challenges in finding a record label aligned with her vision, Lopez's team remains focused on pushing forward with fresh music, with reports indicating she has recorded enough material for a new album. She celebrated her 56th birthday with a lavish party during her tour in Turkey, demonstrating her commitment to embracing life and her career on her own terms. Lopez continues to captivate audiences with bold performances and appears determined to navigate this new independent phase successfully.
