Jennifer Lopez Drops Album "This Is Me… Now": Stream It Now

Jennifer Lopez has finally dropped her ninth studio album, "This Is Me… Now".

Calling it a “musical experience,” the project will chronicle the “emotional, spiritual and psychological journey” that Lopez has taken over the past two decades, according to a press release.

J.Lo said: “We captured me at this moment in time. If you have, like me at times, lost hope, almost given up, don’t. And that’s real. And I want to put that message out to the world.”

"This Is Me…Now" is the sister album to 2002’s "This Is Me…Then", which was dedicated to her partner at the time, Ben Affleck. 

Lopez and Affleck have since rekindled their romance, and the couple tied the knot in 2022. It’s also Lopez’s first full-length solo release in nine years, following A.K.A. in 2014. 

The tracks on the 2023 album are described as “plaintive, confessional songs, reflections on the trials of her past, upbeat jams celebrating love.”

“This Is Me … Then” featured popular tracks such as “The One” and “All I Have”.

“This Is Me…Then was something that I wrote at that point in time that wound up capturing a moment where I fell deeply in love for the first time in that way, and I didn’t know that I would look back and I think. ‘What a kind of poetic thing to say,’” the "Jenny from the Block" singer told Billboard in a recent interview.

She continued, “Then to have this kind of crazy, strange, magical, surrealistic plot twist where I wound up back with that person, it was insane and it was also very inspiring. So I went back in the studio, and in the way that This Is Me… Then captured that first moment in time, I wanted to capture this moment in time,".

"It’s even more beautiful and inspiring than the first time. I have something to say about love now that I’ve been looking for which is — I’m sure people wonder because I did — does true love exist? Is that type of love real? Does anything last forever? When I felt like I had the answers to that, I wanted to share that with all the people who’ve been on this journey with me, who watched me get up and fall down, in and out of relationships. It may not be a straight road, but the love is there.”
