Fans may rejoice, in some way, upon hearing the news of Amy Winehouse‘s first posthumous album, Lioness, to be released by the holidays. Via MTV News,
“The world will finally get to hear the music Amy Winehouse was working on before her unexpected death earlier this year. According to a press release from her English label, a posthumous collection of unheard studio tracks, Lioness: Hidden Treasures, will be released on December 5.”
“The 12 tracks on the disc were put together by Winehouse’s longtime collaborators, producers Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi, and will include songs she recorded before, during and after the releases of her two studio albums, 2003’s Frank and her smash 2006 breakthrough Back to Black. “It was said by all who worked with Amy that she never sang or played a song the same way twice,” read the release announcing the disc. “It quickly became apparent to Salaam and Mark that they had a collection of songs that deserved to be heard, a collection of songs that were a fitting testament to Amy the artist and, as importantly, Amy their friend.”
With a host of sorrowful listeners of Winehouse’ sound still in mourning, it’s refreshing to look forward to new music…a treat that fans were expecting for so long.

Rihanna’s “We Found Love” video disgraceful?
