Adam Lambert is terug! Het grootste deel van zijn carrière tot nu toe heeft Adam Lambert personages gespeeld. Zoals zijn tour rol als frontman van Queen of als jurylid bij American Idol. Maar nu is het tijd zijn rol als solo zanger weer op te pakken. “I’ve watched other artists express this very real, authentic part of themselves over the last few years,” zegt de 42-jarige Lambert tegenover Billboard. “Now, it’s my turn.” Op 19 juli brengt Lambert zijn nieuwe EP ‘Afters’ uit. Als voorproefje verschijnen op 31 mei twee singels: ‘Lube’ en ‘Wet dream’.
“I wanted to make a project that felt like the kind of music I listened to with my friends, talking about the things I talk about with my friends,” legt Lambert uit of zijn nieuwe plaat. “Sometimes, things get a little naughty, and I wanted to capture that energy.”
Over zijn aankomende singel ‘Lube’ zegt hij: “Yeah, I really did sing the words “gonna make you nut.” [Laughs.] I actually wrote this song with Vincint and Parson James, and we had a different chorus originally. I walked away with the song, and I was like, “That chorus is not really doing it for me.” So I had the producer take the chorus vocal off of it, leaving it as an instrumental, and I just kept listening to it. I opened the program up and I just started running the track and recording ideas. When I thought of the rhyme and I was like, “Oh, that’s crazy, I can’t say that.” And then I was like “…maybe I should just say it? Just f–king say it! Why am I editing myself?”
