Big Fat Lie marks a return to form for Nicole Scherzinger.

Produced with the help of The-Dream and Tricky, the album offers a mish-mash of R&B throwbacks and catchy pop tunes.

For Scherzy, the backstory for this LP goes much deeper, after publicising her battle with bulimia, the singer tipped that she would use the record as a vessel to address a few demons, telling Digital Spy in an interview: “I think we all have our own big fat lies.”

Your Love, the album’s lead single and opening track would have you completely contradict Big Fat Lie’s backstory. Nicole’s vocals are infectious, catchy and the song is a tried and tested crowd pleaser, see her performance at Isle Of MTV Malta if more proof is needed.

View the lyrics
Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Boy, you don't know how much I like it
It is so hard not to bite it
Just a little, know you like it
I'll do whatever you want

Something 'bout you so enticing
Even when I try to fight it
Knock me out like Michael Tyson
I'll do whatever you want

And I, I'm never letting you go baby
I love you so baby
Love me the most baby
Ain't going nowhere like froze baby
Do whatever you want baby
And everything you don't baby
Be whatever you need

'Cause your love makes me feel like
Do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
Boy your love makes me feel like
Do, do-do-do-do-do

Do-do-do-do-do
Boy your love makes me feel like
Do, do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do
'Cause your love makes me feel like

Yeah baby you got me
Yeah my body's like Bugatti
You know everybody wants one
You got everything they don't, uh
You get all my loving
All my kisses when we huggin'
MC Hammer girls can't touch this
I got everything they don't

And I, I'm never letting you go baby
I love you so baby
Love me the most baby
Ain't going nowhere like froze baby
Do whatever you want baby
And everything you don't baby
Be whatever you need

I need you in the day time
Especially in the night time
I'm never in my right mind
When I'm with you baby, oh

Whenever you're gone I get lonely
Can't believe how much I'm missing you

Your love makes me feel like
Your love makes me feel like

Hide the lyrics
From the top floor house party to the secret underground club, Nicole pulls in the help of T.I. for Electric Blue. Sultry R&B meets Pharrell Williams/Neptunes inspired production. There are hints of Janet Jackson in Nicole’s vocals and the tracks composition, whether intentional or not.

Third track On The Rocks is an obvious choice for the album’s next single, seeing Nicole “taking shots”, at who? We can’t be sure. It’s a typical Scherzy track, the no nonsense pop diva makes it clear on this record.

Girl With The Diamond Heart is more of the familiar Nicole, making the shift again with one eye on her Pussycat Dolls days. It’s the album’s break-up/better off without you number.

Big Fat Lie makes the switch back from sweet danceable pop to beat heavy ballad. The title track seems to bring to surface the evident aforementioned big fat truths. Nicole’s biographical interpretation and two fingers up to celebrity culture sums up the premise of this album. She sings: “If I’m living such a wonderful high why don’t I feel alive,” taking shots at her appearance and perception of herself.

Run, the eleventh and final track on Big Fat Lie – also the first  US single from the album – is a somber piano ballad complete with and even more somber vocals over this track where the singer offers advice to the next broken heart.

All in all, it’s a short album but with moments of Nicole magic, diva in appearance but not in manner. The very likable Pussycat Doll has released a very likeable record, which will be sure to please the fans. 

It’s a brave move to put your life and insecurities on a record, but Scherzy proves why she’s the woman for the task.  

Big Fat Lie is due for release on October 20.
