Alexandra Burke has promised her fans a more "sexier" new album than her debut effort.
The singer has been working with Colombian DJ Erick Morillo for the new set, which she hopes will be out before spring next year.
Burke told the Daily Star: "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. It's not strictly a banging album. It's fun, loud, up-tempo, in-your-face. It has a lot of colours."
She continued: "It's very different to Overcome. This one is a bit more womanly, sexier. I've taken more risks. I've done six albums worth of songs. Hopefully it will be out for Easter."
Speaking about her last-minute guest judge spot on The X Factor last month, Burke added: "X Factor was insane, I got the call four hours before we went on air.
"I was shopping for my little brother for his birthday, so I was very nervous. But it was an honour. I'd love to do it again."
Alexandra Burke will open the Clothes Show Live fashion event in Birmingham on December 2.
