More on who will be involved in the making of Adam Lambert's post-"American Idol" studio effort is revealed. And according to Entertainment Weekly, OneRepublic's vocalist Ryan Tedder whose songwriting and producing credit included Beyonce Knowles, Leona Lewis and Jordin Sparks will make a contribution.
A source close to Adam also stated that the 2009 Idol runner-up has tagged producer Linda Perry (Christina Aguilera, Pink, James Blunt) in an attempt to make hits. Furthermore, he is rumored getting help from Idol judge Kara DioGuardi.
On top of hitting studio with those acclaimed producer and songwriters, Adam Lambert will be working with RedOne and Sam Sparro as well. He will have his songs produced by RedOne, and recently had a songwriting session with Sam.
Adam's post-Idol album is yet to be titled. It will be released under 19 Recordings/RCA this fall. Besides, an album that he recorded long before he auditioned for Idol will also be dropped before the end of this year, only this time it will be delivered via Hi Fi Recordings. Most recently, his song titled "Want" from the pre-Idol effort has been made available for digital download on iTunes.
In response to the pre-Idol release, Adam issued a statement through a rep for 19 Recordings. "I was shocked to learn that songwriting demos of songs that I co-wrote and recorded over the past few years may be released in an album," Adam said as quoted by Entertainment Weekly.
"Like a rough draft that a writer does before finishing a book, I did not intend my work on these demos to be heard by the public," Adam continued. "I was unaware that anyone intended to release these recordings until I heard about it in the press, and I'm very disappointed by this entire situation."

Once again this tacky know nothing blogger misspeaks and what a surprise, not in Adam Lambert's favor. I love the pejorative words: "gets help, helping him, in AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE HITS"...wtf ...then we have "an album he recorded long ago" HUH? UH NOT HARDLY. Even the label says he only made some tracks, THEY ARE PIECING HIS WORK TOGETHER. Pathetic you losers don't even bother to read. REDONE is ON UTUBE SAYING HE CALLED AI HIMSELF BEFORE THE SEASON WAS OVER ASKING TO WORK WITH ADAM LAMBERT. AI is not "recruiting an army of professionals". You dopes. Adam Lambert is a long time collaborator with Madonna's guitarist Monte Pittman for Zodiac show and they were in a freaking band together go watch Crawl Thru Fire. They wrote a song together the very first night they ever met. Monte introduced Adam to Madonna, or perhaps you missed that. Established musicians are coming out of the woodwork to work with Adam. Not as a favor to AI. Oh wait...I'm sure you're glued to his every move, you haters just pretend to not know the truth so you can post trash. Jealous losers.
By the way, crack team aceshowbiz Adam Lambert sang "Change is Gonna Come" long before AI in his OWN ARRANGEMENT 5:14 which he toned down for AI. They said Simon Fuller "chose it" but it's on UTUBE and fully precedes AI. Of couse he "chose it". Adam Lambert was even more magnificent on that performance. DOING HIS OWN WORK, as proven on utube from 2004... cnz5z35U-0.
Adam rocks--the music biz is standing in line to work with him because they recognize a truly talented artist-the old adage is true--when you have nothing good to say--you should say nothing--your negative judgements describe you--not the person you are attempting to judge--rock on ADAM!!!
adam is handling everything like a pro- what with the bashing from clay and gene, he still came out of it even better than before! now i cant wait for his OFFICIAL DEBUT ALBUM! it sure gonna be a hit, judging from the team of writers he is working with!
Before Idol, he was not just a singer, but an actor, a songwriter, and heck even a dancer!Anyone who bothered to watch Idol would also see that every week he was by a mile the only contestant who made each performance into a concert. He owned that stage, and he was the only one ever bold enough to ask for visual effects. (no that was not something that the producers "pimped" him with)His vocal talent and his ability to arrange songs in a way that make them his own show that he is confident and that he knows who he is as an artist. For those of you who think he is becoming some marketing tool, well at least he is a lot more talented than the other overproduced teeny bopper musicians that have killed quality music!
Oh, and, btw Vattel, I've known a lot of people who still sucked at their craft after 10 years. Oh, and Philly, the "army of professional"s they recruited are there because they will make money off of ADAM, a sure bet. Producers don't throw their money at anything but a sure bet. They are simply investors not philanthropists.
Hollywood is FILLED with working artists who never get noticed but work nevertheless. AND Since when did it become a negative to work many years to hone your craft in order to become noticed as a professional? AND as for not ever being noticed as a measure of talent or lack thereof, you don't know anything about the music/theatre/movie biz if you can make that statement! LA, NY, Nashville, etc have thousands of talented people that simply haven't met the right people at the right time. Even celebrities that are lauded as "rage to riches" stories almost always get their break by knowing someone or being related. There are NO discoveries based purely upon talent. Perfect example: Johnny Depp was an unknown until Nicolas Cage (unknown at the time) suggested he get into acting instead of music. Cage, himself, the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola. Try not to be so judgmental unless you understand how it really works!
Regina, Adam IS indeed a pro! Are you kidding me? This guy is nearly 28 and has worked YEARS in the business. It's funny how his fans think he's a new guy unaware of stuff in the biz. Lol! He's a consumed performer who did make NO impact until powerful American Idol machine ate him and recreated him. There's nothing real about him. Sure he has a nice voice and he can perform (who wouldn't after 10 years of trials?). But this is just what many others have. He needed AI and all these pRs. and composers working for him to get noticed. This isn't really a compliment to his "major" talent. He's talented. But not that much, really.
wow, what an army of professional did they recruit for this old guy debut! With all this help, he better sell 15 millions albums, otherwise it will be a HUGE failure. Seriously... Idol machine is entertaining. If he were this great, he wouldn't have struggled so many years to surface. He did cos he's just a talented singer like many more. But now, with all these helping him, with all the smart promotion about his (fake) image, with all the fuss generated by his sexuality, and with a PR accountant directing his every (prolly controversial) move we will hear about him daily. I am already sick. This is not art. This is a corporated machine ready to sell. Right, he has a nice voice. So what? That voice alone didin't bring him anywhere so far. That means more than something. Anyway: you better sell MILLIONS, Lambert. Or all the investors will be angry.
Now that Adam Lambert may be the next King of Pop/Rock, he has to be careful with negative media/people like Aiken, Perez Hilton, even Simmons, Hi-Fi, anyone who will push his buttons because as a likely emerging King of Pop/Rock, Adam's buttons will be pushed left and right and the media will take each word that he says OUT OF CONTEXT. Adam should take two days or a week to address any negatives or ignore them (the crap). He should start out with "With all due respect, ..." Adam Lambert is being tested by the negative media. He needs to be very careful. He should not let his buttons be pushed by the media/negative people/traitors/etc.
