The album has also been called ‘gritty.’

Last year she hinted that the album – her first album in 15 years – would be about someone who wronged her as she said on social media: ‘This comeback is personal, it’s an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve.’

Though everyone knew the album would come out in 2025, the source has claimed the month is February. ‘It’s ready and it’s coming out with a bang very soon,’ said the source.

The siren recorded the music when in Nashville, Tennessee last year. That is where she got back to her country music ‘roots.’

As DailyMail.com reported in mid January, the album that have to do with heartbreak as she penned them when her marriage to Eric Johnson was unraveling.

‘It will be about her broken heart, so, yeah, I guess you can call it a revenge, a heartbreak album,’ a source told DailyMail.com.

‘When Jessica writes music, she pours her heart into it and has no filter, it’s very personal. So the album will really be about the struggles she has been through at home. It is super emotional and shares her side of the story.

‘She has been working on the album for years, there is a lot in there.’

In addition to working in Nashville, she has been recording at Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles. 

DailyMail.com reached out to Jessica’s rep for comment but did not hear back.

Simpson revealed in January that she and Johnson had separated sometime last year after 10 years of marriage.

‘Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage,’ the singer shared in a statement with PEOPLE, in regards to her marriage to the former NFL player, 45.

‘Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them. We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way, and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family,’ she added.

The pair share three children: daughter Maxwell, 12, son Ace, 11, and daughter Birdie, five.

The couple hasn’t been spotted together since Birdie’s kindergarten graduation back in June 7, and Jessica’s Instagram has been conspicuously Eric-free since their Easter celebration on April 9.

Jessica raised eyebrows by failing to give Eric a birthday shout-out on his 45th birthday on September 10, further igniting rumors of a marital rift.

Adding fuel to the fire, he has also been spotted without his wedding ring in recent outings.

Jessica fueled the chatter with a cryptic social media post on November 11 that appeared to throw shade at someone close to her.

‘Interviews in my Nashville music room where I unearthed my singular magic,’ began the singer in her caption.

‘This comeback is personal, it’s an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve.’

Her quote raised eyebrows as followers tried to guess who made her put up with ‘everything I did not deserve.’
