AceShowbiz - Jennifer Lopez is already very close to releasing her new single. Just a month after signing a multi-album deal with Epic Records, the singer casually announced in a Facebook Live video on Monday, April 4 that she's dropping "Ain't Your Mama" in a few days.
J.Lo was chatting with a fan about the upcoming "American Idol" series finale in the clip when she revealed that she was going to perform the tune live for the first time during the show's Thursday episode.
She then played a portion of the upbeat track, which includes lyrics like, "I ain't going cook all day, I ain't your mama/ I ain't going to do your laundry, I ain't your mama." The song will hit iTunes after her performance.

"Ain't Your Mama" is presumably a preview of Lopez's upcoming album, which will be her first under her new deal with Epic. Currently, no official release date has been set for the follow-up to 2014's "A.K.A.".
Lopez won't be the only star taking the "American Idol" stage this Thursday. A bunch of former contestants including Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Jordin Sparks and Clay Aiken are set to make appearances that day.
