Jennifer Lopez’s new pop album Brave is set for release on October 9th on Epic Records. This is Jennifer’s sixth studio album and her second release this year. Her first all-Spanish album Como Ama Una Mujer was released in March; it zoomed straight to #1 on Billboard's Latin Album chart (where it stayed for 4 weeks) while also making a remarkable #10 debut on the Billboard Top 200 Album chart. This made history as the highest sales of a Spanish album debut. Como Ama Una Mujer has already sold 800,000 copies worldwide.
For the hotly anticipated new album Brave, Jennifer collaborated with producers like J.R. Rotem, Ryan Tedder, Middi Mafia and Bloodshy. The first single “Do It Well” is already heating up airwaves on all radio formats including Z-100 in New York City and KIIS and Power 106 in Los Angeles.

Jennifer has been busy promoting the film El Cantante in which she stars as Puchi, the wife of tragic salsa legend Hector Lavoe. Produced by Lopez’s Nuyorican Productions, El Cantante opened last week to rave reviews. Newsday wrote, “…the haunting beauty of the movie is the way it dramatizes the central figure of salsa music, the singer, who is burdened with carrying the hopes and dreams of his audience…”
