Fantasia Says Her Next Album Will Be Her Last

By Miles Carter, November 15, 2026

Fantasia says the next album she makes will be her last. On The Jennifer Hudson Show, in an episode that aired Nov 13, 2026, Hudson asked about new music and said she had heard Fantasia call it her final album.

"Listen, I'm not stopping," Fantasia answered. "I've been traveling for 22 years singing the same hits." She said she wants to do her last album and added that a gospel album is "coming too."

She tied the decision to her family. Her prayer, she said, is that she can travel with "the old and the new" while still focusing on home. "I'm tired of racing," she said. "I'm ready to go home."

The show posted the exchange on its official YouTube channel on Nov 13, 2026, inside a clip about her bond with Tyler Perry. She was on the show promoting Tyler Perry's The Gospel of Christmas, the Netflix film in which she stars. Neither Fantasia nor the show gave a title or a release date for either album.
