The Entertainer

The Entertainer is the third studio album by English recording artist Alesha Dixon. It was released on 26 November 2010 in the United Kingdom by Asylum Records, and Atlantic Records in the United States. The album's lead single, "Drummer Boy", was released on 5 September 2010. The album's second single, "Radio", was released on 28 November 2010. The album was originally planned to be named Unleashed, however the plans were scrapped and The Entertainer was decided upon instead. The Entertainer has a different sound to Dixon's previous album, The Alesha Show, which gained a gold certification by the British Phonographic Industry. She decided to rap in some of the album's songs again, like she once did as member of girl band Mis-Teeq. She worked with producers such as Rodney Jerkins, Toby Gad (Beyoncé, Fergie), Jim Beanz, and Soulshock & Karlin during the recording of the album.
