Overview
- Lopez told Variety that her 18-year-old twins leaving for college left her feeling “devastating, sad and frightening” and forced her to reassess how she spends her time.
- She said her response was to return to the recording studio and that she has written what she calls some of the best songs of her career.
- Lopez describes the collection she assembled as largely joyful with a small thread of wistfulness that reflects this life change.
- Reports say one new track, “Proof of Love,” is planned for a November release as a bonus on a reissue of her 2011 album Love?, but that timing and details have not been formally confirmed by a label.
- The creative surge follows Lopez’s 2024 divorce and her public emphasis on finding self-directed love, a shift that could shape how she markets the new music and any tied anniversary reissue.
