Leona Lewis - Glassheart

Glassheart is the third studio album by British recording artist Leona Lewis. The album was released on 12 October 2012 by Syco Music and is Lewis's first release in partnership with RCA Records following a restructure at Sony Music Entertainment which led to the closure of J Records. Glassheart was conceived in 2010 shortly after Lewis completed her first headline tour, The Labyrinth. It was originally scheduled for release in November 2011 but was rescheduled several times throughout 2012 to accommodate further recording sessions and more creative time for the project.

On the album, Lewis is reunited with Ryan Tedder, producer of previous singles "Bleeding Love" and "Happy". Lewis also worked with new producers including Naughty Boy, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins and Dallas Austin amongst others. "Collide", a collaboration with house music DJ Avicii, was released on 2 September 2011 as the album's first single. It would go on to become a top-five hit in the UK and Lewis's first single to top the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart in the US.

To bridge the gap between Lewis's last album Echo and Glassheart, Lewis teamed with Fraser T Smith to release Hurt: The EP. Following its positive reception, Smith was hired as Glassheart's executive producer, and has credits on many of the album's songs. Scottish singer-songwriter Emeli Sandé aided Lewis to write the second single "Trouble", a dark song inspired by Lewis's break-up with childhood sweetheart Lou Al-Chamaa. "Trouble" features US rapper Childish Gambino and was premiered on 21 August 2012, ahead of its digital release on 5 October 2012.
