Recently, singer MakSim gave birth to her second daughter. Today she is almost ready new album, she travels a lot, is preparing for a tour in China and is going to open an art school in the center of Moscow. About myself and my life - for the first time, perhaps, so openly! – Marina Maksimova told Woman's Day.

Both my girls are completely different. I'll say even more. All three of us are very different! I, like any mother, really wanted my child to be like me, to play football together, wear funny pants and caps. But Sasha already told me at the age of two that she would not wear any shorts, she only wears dresses, her wardrobe of dresses is larger than mine, she is a real girl! She is now six years old - and she cooks great. She can make pancakes, bake something. To the question “Who do you want to be?” she replies: “Mom!” At her age, I wanted to be anyone - from a clown to Joan of Arc, but not a mother! She is completely different. And for me this is a big surprise.

Now Mashenka was born, this is the third female type in my family. A completely different breed. She will be a very sophisticated, calm, balanced girl with a big soul and an open heart. I look into her eyes - it’s all there already. Now she is a completely calm child, unlike Sasha. Sasha didn’t let me sleep at all, Masha - pah-pah-pah, I’ve never seen better children. The perfect child.

Most often, our grandparents help us - our parents on both sides are in touch with us all the time, they always give a lot of excellent advice. And a nanny. This is ours close person, knows Sasha very well, sincerely loves girls, I trust her. Sasha is now engaged in education, and she needs more mom and teachers. But I need a nanny more. To the question “Is this your children’s nanny?” I usually answer: this is my nanny! She raises me too, teaches me life sometimes. I want to gain wisdom, but somehow it doesn’t come quickly. And I’m still just learning this wisdom. And sometimes she gives very correct advice.

If I’m away, I call several times a day, I miss her terribly, of course, because Mashenka is still a small creature completely inseparable from me, I feel her so much, I feel her, she’s still completely part of me. It is very difficult to be away from her, even for one day.

I finally felt like a weak woman

It’s difficult to say what has changed in my worldview with the advent of my second child. I definitely changed a lot, but not after Masha was born, but in connection with the appearance in my life true love. With the understanding that you can be a woman - real, weak, flexible, homely. I had never had this feeling before; there was some uncertainty about everything.

Maternal instinct shocked me on the third day after Sasha was born. Before that, I didn’t understand at all what pregnancy was or what children were. I continued touring until last month. And when this feeling hit me over the head, I realized that this uncontrollable feeling was stronger than me - and I panicked. I didn’t understand how to live with all this now. Masha was a planned, much loved, long-awaited child. And as soon as I realized that I was pregnant again, some other consciousness appeared. For example, I thought it wasn’t very nice when you go on stage while expecting a child. And when my belly started to grow, I stopped touring and going to any events.

I traveled a lot during my pregnancy. I was practically not in Moscow, I traveled almost all over Russia. By the end of the week I didn’t always remember when it started and in which city – I moved around very actively. In the seventh month I even went to the races... Still, at some points I cannot be stopped. As my mother says, I have no self-preservation instinct at all. On the other hand, I began to be afraid of flying. That is, the instinct still manifests itself, along with responsibility for the children.

Well, my pregnancy was very, very beautiful: I had a small, neat belly, my relatives said that they had never seen such beautiful pregnant women. I started looking in the mirror and really liking myself. And then the child was born, but this feeling did not go away! That's why the eyes burn. The second birth was completely different. With Sasha everything was much more complicated, but Masha really wanted to be born.

Motherhood inspires

Does motherhood distract from creativity? Not at all! On the contrary, it inspires! During pregnancy, I didn’t write a single song. I began to look at the world with a wide open gaze and perceived everything with such crazy positivity! I would start writing a song, but by the third line I would forget what the first line was about. But when the child was born, I was so carried away that by that moment almost the entire album was already ready. I, of course, plan to write more to choose the best.

And now I sing with children. Fortunately Masha loves it. And if Sasha asked me: “Just don’t sing, mom!” – then Masha looks at me with her blue and so loving eyes when I start singing to her. She looks at me, falls silent - she really likes me. Now, of course, Sasha has matured and plays her mother’s CDs on her own and dances to them. True, I ask her to do this while mom is not at home. I can’t calmly listen to the material that I’ve already experienced. Firstly, I perform all this at concerts and just as a listener I can’t relate to what I’m doing; my inner critic immediately kicks in: I’m distracted and can’t do other things. And Masha is a very romantic girl. She's a love child.

The eldest daughter was being prepared for the birth of the youngest

The difference between the children is five and a half years. I consulted a lot, asked what to do in our case to avoid jealousy. But everything turned out to be simpler. Sasha has been asking for a brother or sister for a long time, every evening she literally said: “I will tell her this, I will show her this, I will definitely give her my toy.” I was really looking forward to it. When Masha appeared, I remember well the moment of their first meeting. When Sasha was allowed into my room, she was not interested in how her mother was feeling, or her grandparents who came with her, she ran in with wild eyes and shouted: “Where is she?” They have an amazing love that cannot be expressed in words! She hugs Masha constantly, they have their own communication, they spend a lot of time together, Sasha is ready to devote maximum of her time to her and even gets upset when Masha sleeps.

Of course, we prepared her for the baby’s arrival in advance: we gave her a doll that looked very much like a child. The doll has many functions that she has to perform as a mother. And they said: here is your child. And while we bathe Masha and tell her how beautiful, sweet, the most best girl, Sasha bathes her girl and says the same words to her. Sometimes she bathes Masha with us. She does everything to keep Mashenka from crying and smiles: he tells her something, jumps with her, does what she wants. And every time he goes out into the yard, he tells everyone: “Do you know what kind of sister I have!” Extremely proud of her.

Of course, we understand that the child will grow up and tear her notebooks, we are preparing her for this too. To which she replies: “Let him vomit, it’s my sister!” She always joins my tenderness and says: “This is my sister, she is the best - our Masha!” We have a very gentle girl.

Who do I consult with? With mom, of course. She also raised two children 3.5 years apart, so my brother and I were very close as children. We are still the closest people. And when there are such moments when no one except my loved ones can help, I can in a second buy the nearest ticket to Kazan, and where I go first - to my brother. And he will meet me, cancel all his affairs. We don’t even need to talk to him much or discuss anything. We can exchange some phrases with him, and everything is clear. I can just sleep with him. Because in childhood they were very close and there were no jealous relationships. By the way, my brother has two sons, 3 and 10 years old, I adore my nephews.

About your art school

Another trait passed from my mother to me. As it turned out, I am a person who loves children very much - and not only my own. My mother worked as a kindergarten teacher all her life, and her love for children was passed on to me. Therefore, I am now devoting a lot of time to opening an art school, in which, with my great love I will give away my knowledge. It’s clear that I won’t be able to fully teach any discipline, but I can do it open classes, master classes, writing songs for someone, helping to become a real professional artist is my task.

School is my long-time dream. Until now I couldn’t imagine how all this could exist, but now everything has fallen into place and good company assistants. We know exactly how to do it. It will be an art school, with full-fledged disciplines of a classical music school - and musical literature, and solfeggio, and separate vocal lessons, and individual sessions in all subjects. We will have a full-fledged recording studio for talented people– with whom it will be possible to cooperate in the future. The teachers will be respected people whom I know well and in whom I am confident. Now the project is in a completely uncreative state: we are concluding a mountain of contracts, selecting teaching staff, and completing cosmetic repairs. The opening is planned for September this year. The school will focus on middle class. Because people who initially have a huge number of possibilities have very few desires left. It seems to me that those who want to achieve a lot in life have more potential.

My daughter is growing up, she attends many clubs, and I am faced with the fact that most of them are entertainment and a waste of time, and for me, as a mother. I wouldn't want to waste time. And we are constantly looking for something, selecting something new, so that some knowledge remains in her head. My task is to give something constructive, not to engage in sloppiness to pass the time, but in a way that is both interesting and necessary for development. I think my daughters will study there too.

I want to be successful for my daughters

I have a clear conviction that mother can only by example give some correct advice, life guidelines, and you cannot give this to children with any instructions. I wouldn’t want my girls to make a lot of mistakes—all of us moms don’t want that. God grant that at least our mistakes are not repeated. Therefore, I want to be a bright image for them, from whom they want to follow an example. Of course, they will find out about my youth, dreadlocks and some actions, and I am not going to hide this from them - because I myself do not regret anything. But while they are growing up, they should have people to follow as examples.

How do I want my daughters to see me? A strong woman who knows her worth and knows what she wants from life. Being educated is important if I want my children to receive a good education and wanted to be successful. Now I’m catching up on some of my gaps: I study a lot in English, Spanish, study the history of art, I’m passionate about a lot of things. In addition, I actively engage in sports and take my eldest daughter with me so that sports can also become a way of life for her.

How to quickly get in shape after childbirth

The main thing is to stop panicking, calm down and try to plan everything. Gradually it comes: the eyes are afraid - the hands do it. If you can delegate, then two children is quite easy and even fun. For example, while playing hide and seek with my eldest daughter, I can make some business calls while sitting in the closet.

In January, I went on vacation calmly. Masha felt great! She had no acclimatization, no consequences, nothing to scare us with. And I realized that vacationing with children also greatly rehabilitates me. Not only travel and tours - until now it was they that brought me back to normal, to the state in which I should be. But also full children's holiday– with all children's discos and events.

I think, Any person can find one hour a day to devote to sports. And I do the same. Sports for me habitat: I lived in it and grew up in it. I need to give my best – physically, in order to get rid of negative emotions and impressions, and I am very impressionable. And sport helps a lot.

It's better not to ask me about food– I eat everything, I love sweets very much, I can’t live without cakes. Maybe two more children - I live a very active life, a lot of plans and thoughts. It seems to me that the whole world can be embraced by me! That's why I want to do a lot of things now! In May we will go on our first big tour - it will be in China. There are a lot of flights, but I’m already in control, knowing exactly how many concerts I can physically and mentally give.

For me, it is still important to remain an artist who is on fire for listeners. There was a time when we worked 30 concerts, and they were already turning into a conveyor belt, and we were very tired, both morally and physically, and our health had weakened. Therefore, I decided to do no more than 12 concerts a month. This is enough to give the maximum of your emotions.

Singer Maxim is a young, talented and purposeful girl who, at the age of 32, has already reached certain heights in the musical field. And most importantly, she achieved everything through hard work and incredible perseverance. People say: “The city takes courage.” And this phrase is entirely about our heroine. IN at a young age when all the girls are waiting for love, Maxim wanted to not just dream, she decided to shout about her feelings to the whole world through music and poetry own composition. She was not afraid of difficulties and rushed at the age of 17 from distant Tatarstan to Moscow, where, in fact, no one was waiting for her.

Our article will tell the reader about the main facts from Maxim’s life. The singer, whose biography, personal life and career are always in sight, will appear, perhaps, in a slightly different light, different from the stereotypical image in which people are often accustomed to seeing her.

Childhood

Marina Abrosimova - that’s actually the name of the heroine of our article - was born in Kazan, into an absolutely ordinary family of an auto mechanic and a teacher. kindergarten in the summer of 1983. As a child, she was a playful and extraordinary child, because, on the one hand, she was fond of karate and was such a tomboy, on the other hand, she attended classes at music school- studied vocals and learned to play the piano. It must be said that the creative pseudonym Maxim is the girl’s childhood nickname, which stuck to her because she youth was inseparable from her older brother, Maxim Abrosimov.

And although Marina’s education was not related to music, she first graduated from Lyceum No. 83 in Kazan, and later from Kazan State Technical University. Tupolev with a profile as a public relations specialist. Music lived in the girl’s soul constantly. Marina began writing songs while still at school, which later became her debut hits and were included in her first music collection. In general, the girl can be called lucky - she knew from childhood that she wanted to be a singer, and was firmly confident in the choice of her future.

The beginning of Maxim’s creative journey. Photo

The singer, whose biography is of interest to numerous fans today, has her creative steps started doing it in hometown- Kazan. Recording the first musical material- songs “Alien”, “Start” and “Passerby” - was conducted with the support musical group“Pro-Z”. The group decided to help the young and talented talent. By the way, a very curious situation arose with the song “Zavedi”. Music pirates confused the cards for the aspiring singer, and her song was released in one of music collections, but under the authorship of the popular group “t.A.T.u.” at that time. The true owner of the musical creation for a long time remained on the sidelines. The singer Maxim was at one time even reproached for the fact that the girl imitates “tattoos” in her behavior.

The creative biography of the singer Maxim took shape bit by bit. At that time, Marina was engaged not only in her own promotion, but also wrote songs for others, in particular for the group “Sh-cola”. She tried to try herself in everything - she participated in joint concerts with little-known groups, and promoted her songs on the radio. However, at first Maxim’s efforts did not lead to success. The ice broke only when the song “Centimeters of Breath” appeared on the radio. The listeners liked the composition, and the girl immediately felt inspired to further creativity, although fame has not yet come to her. Maxim understood that global changes and fertile soil for fruitful work were needed - Kazan had become too small for the plans of the ambitious Marina. She set off to conquer Moscow.

Moscow does not believe in tears

Like many visitors, Maxim experienced the “hospitality” big city. At first, the girl, barely making ends meet, performed in the Moscow metro. No one was waiting for her here, and everyone had to survive by known methods. It was 2005, and by this time the author had accumulated a lot of songs. They needed a way out.

Marina was actively looking for a company that would help her record musical material and become a springboard on the path to success. Soon such a campaign was found - Gala Records, represented by sound producer Anatoly Stelmachenko, became the locomotive that slowly opened the then unknown Maxim project to the Moscow public. “Difficult Age”, “Becoming the Wind”, “Letting Go” - these compositions were the starting point, it was after their birth that the singer got into the rotation of the radio station “ Russian radio" Soon she musical achievements were awarded the Golden Gramophone award.

The first successes were followed by the appearance of everyone’s favorite hits “Letting Go”, “Do You Know”, “Becoming the Wind”. Work swirled the girl in its arms - tours began in Russia, Belarus, Estonia, and Germany.

Without slowing down, the girl was working on recording her second album. By the way, in creative process There have been some minor changes - Maxim began working together with musicians who play live sound. This brought rock shades to the performer’s work, although the singer herself says that she was, is and will only be a pop diva. On November 13, 2007, the world was presented with the second music album Maxim - “My Paradise”. The sales record broke the record success of Marina's first album - within a year it sold 700,000 copies, receiving platinum status. This was followed by a new large-scale tour and a concert at the Olimpiysky sports complex, which was attended by a huge number of people. The singer achieved genuine success and recognition from the audience.

About personal

It should be said that all Maxim’s songs are her own story, her feelings, experiences and dreams. Perhaps she won the love of fans with her sincerity and simplicity, because the lyrics of her songs are about what happens in the life of every teenager. Her audience is just young girls, the same as Maxim’s songs - tender and touching. And over the years, the singer's music remained very autobiographical. To confirm this, there is a story associated with the song “Best Night”.

It was after the release of this composition (2008) that rumors about the singer’s pregnancy spread in the press. And then they were confirmed. Personal life singer Maxim became public knowledge. She and Alexei Lugovtsev had a daughter, Alexandra. However, the happiness did not last long. In 2010, information appeared about the singer’s divorce. The family boat did not stand up to the test. Numerous exaggerations of the situation in the press prompted Marina to give the only official interview to Oksana Pushkina’s program. The girl in it admitted that their couple did not have the wisdom to maintain their own happiness, and explained the reasons why the young people decided to separate. In addition, Maxim said that during the period life together she had no inspiration to create decent music. And only now, after the divorce, she returns to herself again.

What's interesting about speaking about working together with Maxim, the guys noted the girl’s incredible performance and her high professionalism, arguing that the created image of the little girl that the viewer sees is just a mask.

Marina is a very versatile person. And it is important to note that the biography of singer Maxim includes a lot interesting facts.

On October 29, 2014, Maxim gave birth to another daughter, Maria. The child's father is businessman Anton Petrov. As the singer admits to correspondents, being a mother is absolute happiness. Talking about his girls, Maxim openly says that the birth of his first daughter Alexandra was exciting and led the singer into confusion. The first child is a constant fear and anxiety for any reason. In general, it was not easy. But the birth of my second daughter became a conscious and planned event, because the experience of raising my first child gave me a feeling of peace and self-confidence.

Today, a young mother tries to spend every free minute with her girls, takes care of their development, and pampers them. However, he is wary of the issue of money and the freedom associated with it. Maxim herself grew up in a family with modest incomes, so she knows the value of money. However, today, receiving good fees for his work, he is afraid that big money, or rather, the impact they have on the psyche of people. She says that she has seen enough of such stories and wants her little ones to early years everyone understood correctly.

About fans and the future

Speaking about herself as a person and as a performer, Maxim notes that she has probably changed over time, but she doesn’t realize it. Although after the birth of children, of course, she began to look at many things differently and, probably, her music also matured. Observing the situation, how her once young fans have already managed to get married and today come to concerts with their families, together with children, the singer rejoices. If people come, it means there is sincerity in Maxim’s work - and this is the most important thing. After all, the viewer does not forgive deception.

Fans of the performer can always follow her life on Instagram. All the information that appears on the Internet is what singer Maxim lives by. Biography, height, weight, new hobbies - topics that always worry fans and become hotly discussed in the Internet space.

The artist says that her life is scheduled minute by minute. “...Participation in various creative projects, concerts, filming take a lot of time. And it is also a huge responsibility when you are no longer destined for yourself. After all, you are a public person, you are the singer Maxim. Biography, family, physical form- these are all questions that a lot of effort is spent on solving every day. But first of all, it’s a great happiness to work on what is important and dear to you...”

Speaking about plans for the future, Maxim does not indicate clear guidelines or any specific goals. She intends to go only forward and do only what will be interesting to her. And she loves experimenting on herself. Laughing, he talks about how, for the sake of business, you can easily leave your comfort zone and spend days on end going towards your goal. This was the case during the filming of the video for the song “Golden Fishes”. The singer put on pointe shoes and practically lived in ballroom class, while losing her own weight to incredible limits through hours of daily training. By the way, some time after the second birth, with a height of 160 cm, the girl’s weight was only 45 kg. Isn't this an example?

Therefore, apparently, the biography of the singer Maxim will be updated year after year. interesting events. Surely the girl still has many large-scale achievements and victories ahead, since she knows how to achieve her goals, and creative potential and her ambitions are as they should be.

Regularly, singer MakSim (real name Marina Maksimova) pleases numerous subscribers with publications that she makes on her official page in social Instagram networks. The artist posts photographs and videos dedicated to the details of her public and private life.

ON THIS TOPIC

Marina also publishes footage of her eldest daughter Alexandra. But for some reason the singer does not show a photo of Maria’s youngest heir. Numerous subscribers were literally at a loss as to why, and finally Marina decided to explain her decision.

In an interview with the program “OK in touch!” Maksimova said that her father, businessman Anton Petrov, insisted on the absolute privacy of Maria’s life. “I don’t show my youngest daughter much, because it was my dad’s wish. We respect this wish and meet it halfway. When she herself wants and asks to appear somewhere, we will think about it. While our adults decide,” the singer said .

Marina noted that her girls are very different. “The little daughter is completely creative, and she sings very loudly. She studies English closely, speaks the same English and Russian. She sings to the whole house, it can be very fun, even the teachers laugh. Sasha is a more thoughtful girl, more serious. Well, she feels responsible. She is a real big sister – the kind they write about in books,” said the artist.

Despite the young age of Alexandra and Maria, Marina is already keeping them busy with various activities. “It always seems to me that I am giving them too little education, although everyone who sees how much they study says: “Well, give the children a rest!” A person must adapt to being constantly busy, and then he does not have enough time to be lazy,” Marina Maksimova is sure.

Let us remind you that common law husband MakSim Anton Petrov married someone else. The businessman left the artist for student Elizaveta Bryksina. The fact that the singer’s common-law spouse has another woman became known thanks to social networks. In her account, Elizaveta Bryksina romantically wrote: “How quickly time flies... I’ve been with you for a year already,” accompanying the post with a corresponding photo. It is difficult to imagine what a shock the artist experienced when she learned that her beloved was spending evenings with someone else, especially considering that she was expecting a child from Anton - she was seven months pregnant.

When journalists contacted Marina to find out the details, she did not deny it. “Unfortunately, we couldn’t become a family, what to hide. Life is unpredictable. Love passes. Let him be happy,” MakSim admitted sadly.

Childhood and youth

Biography future star began on June 10, 1983: that’s when the singer was born. Real name is Marina Abrosimova, her zodiac sign is Gemini. Kazan became the girl’s hometown. Marina’s parents were far from art; her father worked as a car mechanic, her mother as a kindergarten teacher. The family raised an older brother, Maxim, in whose honor the singer later took her creative pseudonym.

Marina became interested in music at an early age. The girl studied vocals and piano. The singer took classes in the karate section and received a red belt for this martial art.

Maxim recalls that in her youth she was an emotional child and once, after a quarrel with her parents, she even ran away from home. During her absence, the girl got her first tattoo on her shoulder, which she later completed, turning it into an image of a cat. Marina also loved to experiment with hair color. The character of a rebel did not prevent the singer from graduating from KSTU. Tupolev, Faculty of Public Relations.

Music

Marina began her initial steps towards her future career while studying at school. As a student, she became a participant in the “Nefertiti Necklace” and “Teen Star” competitions and wrote her first songs. These were “Winter” and “Alien”, later included in the star’s second album.

However, Maxim’s serious approach to her future career began at a young age. In 1998, when the girl was only 15 years old, she firmly decided that she would connect her life with singing. But Marina’s actions did not end with one decision, and she and the group “Pro-Z” recorded the first three songs: “Passerby”, “Alien” and “Start Up”. Latest in short terms gained popularity in the clubs of Tatarstan, and the singer received her first fame.

The song “Start Up” can be called the star’s first serious success. Some time after its popularization in clubs, the track appeared in the collection “Russian Ten”. Instead of Maxim, the performer was the popular group “t.A.T.u.” at that time. The mistake of the compilers of the pirated album led to the spread of the opinion that Marina was imitating a famous group.

However, this did not bother Marina, and she confidently continued her own promotion. This period in your career cannot be called easy and cloudless. To get at least some money, Maxim collaborated with little-known groups.

The girl writes songs, sometimes records a soundtrack to which other performers perform. Among the more or less well-known groups with which the star collaborated, “Lips” and “Sh-cola” stand out. The last one is Marina wrote the lyrics for the songs “Cool Producer”, “I’m Flying Like This”.

So creative career singers continued until 2003. Then Maxim, together with “Pro-Z”, recorded two singles called “Difficult Age” and “Tenderness”. The songs were released on the radio, but did not gain popularity. The star did not give up and a year later released another single, which was the song “Centimeters of Breath.”

This moment became a turning point in Marina’s life. The song quickly gained popularity and took 34th place in the general radio chart in the CIS. After performing several performances in clubs in Kazan, the singer decided to move to the capital of Russia.

The conquest of Moscow began with troubles. When Maxim found herself at the Kazansky station, she learned about a sudden change in the plans of the relatives with whom she was supposed to stay. The singer spent eight days on the street, staying in the waiting room at night and periodically hiding from the police. Everything ended well. Marina met a dancer who offered to rent an apartment together. The singer agreed and lived in this rented accommodation for the next six years.

After moving, Maxim begins to prepare material for his debut album. As soon as the preparations were completed, the singer began to look for a company to release the project. The girl's choice settled on Gala Records. Marina contacted the organization, providing a video of a concert in St. Petersburg, where an audience of fifteen thousand people sang the song “Difficult Age” with the singer.

Gala Records decided to give the project the green light, and full-scale work on the album began. In 2005, new versions of the songs “Difficult Age” and “Tenderness” were recorded, and videos were released for both tracks. After the video appeared for new version The hit “Tenderness” brings real fame to Maxim. This composition took first place on the Golden Gramophone radio station chart and stayed there for nine weeks.

In 2006, work on the debut album was completed, and it was released under the name “Difficult Age”. Several months have passed, and the project reaches the mark of 200 thousand copies sold, it is awarded platinum status.

At the same time, Marina, together with the singer, released the single “Letting Go” and a video for it. The video quickly gains popularity and takes 1st place in the overall chart of CIS radio studios, where it stays for four weeks.

In October 2006, Maxim went on his first tour in support of his first album. During the tour, the singer gave more than a hundred concerts in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Belarus and Germany. The tour continued more than a year, ending in November 2007. During the tour, a single was released for the song “Do You Know,” which would later become business card Marina, and the single “Our Summer”, recorded by Maxim together with.

In October 2007, the singer received two awards at once during the Russian Music Awards: “Best Performer” and “Best Pop Project of the Year”. By this time, Gala Records began to rush the star with the release of his next project. As a result, by the end of the year the album “My Paradise” was released. Fans greeted the project with joy, and more than seven hundred thousand copies were sold in 2007. Critics' opinions varied widely. Some noted the quality of the live sound, others complained about the number of hits.

During 2009, the singer was actively working on her next album, releasing several singles, including “Sky, Fall Asleep,” “I Won’t Give It Up,” and “On the Radio Waves.” Moreover, the latter is directly related to the singer’s third album, which was released on December 1 of the same year.
