Five-time Grammy-winner Christina Aguilera releases a second Spanish record, La Fuerza. It follows her 2000 album Mi Reflejo, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard‘s Top Latin Albums chart and remained there for 19 weeks. It will be the 9th studio album for the singer and includes new tracks featuring Latin artists Ozuna, Becky G, Nathy Peluso, and Nicki Nicole.

John Mellencamp gives us his 25th studio album, Strictly A One-Eyed Jack, released on Republic Records. It features three collaborations with Bruce Springsteen, including the landmark duet "Wasted Days."

Award-winning actor Kiefer Sutherland releases his third album Bloor Street, centered around love and positivity. Sutherland sets out this year on an extensive 24 date tour of the UK and Europe for the new record.

Breakthrough country artist Walker Hayes’ new LP will be called Country Stuff The Album and follows his 2021 EP Country Stuff. The full-album package will include 13 songs in all, including his “Fancy Like” hit, plus the previously released “U Gurl,” collaborations with Carly Pearce, Jake Owen, and Lori McKenna, and a reimagined version of “Craig” featuring the Christian rock band MercyMe. The "Fancy Like" singer first blew up after posting a video of himself and his 16-year-old daughter Lela performing an original dance to the track on TikTok last year. The popularity of the No. 1 song scored a feature in an Applebee's commercial and a Grammy nomination for Hayes for Best Country Song at the 2022 ceremony.

Night Call is the upcoming third studio album by British musician Olly Alexander,  released under his solo project Years & Years. The electropop meets R&B artist’s latest work has 11 tracks featuring the Swedish EDM duo Galantis-assisted "Sweet Talker."
