Alexandra Burke made her successful return to The X Factor by performing her new single ‘Bad Boys’ with rapper Flo Rida this past Sunday. The singer won the reality TV singing competition last year. The 21-year old British singing sensation has her debut album ‘Overcome’ being released on October 19. When she was asked to describe her album, Alexandra said “There’s more up-tempo tracks on the album that there are ballads. The ballads on there are very, very strong. The up-tempo tracks are very loud, fierce and beastly! When I recorded the ballads I cried, they’re very emotional.” I can’t wait to hear it.
