Back to Basics is the fifth studio album by American recording artist Christina Aguilera. It was released on August 9, 2006 by RCA Records as a double album. Serving as executive producer, she enlisted a wide range of producers including DJ Premier, Rich Harrison, Rob Lewis, Mark Ronson, and Linda Perry. Recording sessions began in January 2005 and ended in April 2006, taking place at Chalice Recording Studios and Record Plant.
Inspired by Aguilera's 1920s–1940s idols, including Billie Holiday, Otis Redding, Etta James, and Ella Fitzgerald, Back to Basics was described by Aguilera herself as a fusion of old-school jazz and soul inspirations with a modernized style. Primarily a pop and R&B record, the first disc juxtaposes rhythm and blues with hip hop and urban elements with most songs employing samples, while the second contains all original tracks with the exception of "Candyman", which samples "Tarzan & Jane Swingin' on a Vine". Lyrically, the album is inspired by Aguilera's previous life events including her marriage with Jordan Bratman in 2005.
To portray a new persona, Aguilera adopted her new alter ego, Baby Jane, and made several changes to her public appearance, inspired by classic Hollywood movie stars. She promoted the album by performing at concerts from mid-2006 to early-2007, including the 2006 MTV Movie Awards and the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards. The album's supporting tour Back to Basics Tour, which visited countries in North America, Asia, Europe, Australia and Middle East, lasted from late-2006 until late-2008. Back to Basic spawned three international singles: "Ain't No Other Man", "Hurt" and "Candyman".[note 1]
Back to Basics received positive reviews from music critics who complimented its musical diversity from Aguilera's previous albums while there were others who criticized its length. The record received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album, and its lead single "Ain't No Other Man" won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards in 2007. In its first week of release, the album debuted atop the US Billboard 200 chart with first-week sales of 346,000 copies. Back to Basics achieved similar success internationally, reaching the top spot in over fifteen countries including Australia, Canada, Germany, Ireland, Switzerland and United Kingdom. The album has sold 1.7 million copies in the US, and 5 million units worldwide as of November 2013.[4]
Background
At the 46th Annual Grammy Awards in 2004, Aguilera announced that she was going to work on a follow-up album to Stripped (2002).[5] She stated her main idea for the project was to "evolve as an artist and a visionary",[6] which was taken from a poem she wrote during The Stripped Tour (2003).[7] In an interview with Billboard magazine, Aguilera expressed dissatisfaction with contemporary music, as technology "has advanced itself so anybody can be a singer".[7] Thus, Aguilera took musical inspirations from old-school jazz, blues and soul records performed by her 1920s-1940s idols including Billie Holiday, Otis Redding, Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald,[8] which she viewed as "music that really had heart".[7]
To create a "throwback" with elements of old-school genres combined with "a modern-day twist",[6] Aguilera sent letters to different producers that she hoped could help her with the direction she was taking for the project, encouraging them to experiment, re-invent and create a modern soul feel.[9] She initially planned to condense the album into a single, more "affordable" disc, however she expanded Back to Basics as a double album.[6] For the first disc, Aguilera collaborated with hip hop producers including DJ Premier, Rich Harrison, Kwamé, and Mark Ronson for the first time.[10] Most songs from the first half incorporate horn samples to create "gritty and old" sounds.[11] DJ Premier questioned if Aguilera was familiar with his work, though she had known of his jazz-influenced work with Gang Starr in late-1980s and early-1990s.[12] In response, Aguilera wanted her album to draw inspirations from Premier's song "Jazz Thing" and noted that their collaboration became his first time "venturing into the 'pop' world".[12]
For the "1920s and 1930s-era vibe"-influenced second disc, Aguilera teamed up with longtime producer Linda Perry, who produced Aguilera's previous album Stripped.[11] In contrast to the first half disc, the second one consists of all live recordings without using samples[6] (with the exception of "Candyman" featuring a sample of "Tarzan & Jane Swingin' on a Vine").[10] Recording sessions of the project began in January 2005 and ended in April 2006, taking place at Chalice Recording Studios and The Record Plant in Hollywood, California.[13] All songs from Back to Basics were recorded using Pro Tools HD3 program and done with a SSL J9000 console with 96 inputs.[13] Aguilera's vocals were recorded using a Telefunken ELAM 251 microphone, possibly in conjunction with an Avalon M-5 pre-amp .[13] Producer Scott Storch, who contributed to Aguilera's previous album Stripped, was asked to return for the production of Back to Basics.[14] However, he refused the offer when Aguilera declined to pay airfare for him and his entourage to fly out to Los Angeles, which led to a breakdown of their relationship.[14] Subsequently, Aguilera included the song "F.U.S.S." ("Fuck You Scott Storch") on the album,[15] which Storch viewed as "pathetic".[16]

According to Aguilera and the production team, Back to Basics draws influences from 1920s-1940s jazz, blues and soul genres.[7] However, music critics identified the record as a pop[19] and R&B[20] album with similarities to 1960s, 1970s and 1980s albums.[21] Dorian Lyskey writing for The Guardian thought that the album's concept "is so wide as to be meaningless",[22] while Serene Dominic from Phoenix New Times compared Back to Basics' musical style to rock band The Beatles' 1968 self-titled album.[21]
The first half disc incorporates strong elements from hip hop,[7] urban,[17] blending old-school and modern R&B.[23] It features horn samples and gospel choirs, making it sound like "a dusty old vinyl album", according to Jenny Eliscu from Rolling Stone.[24] Most songs from the disc employ samples, with the exception of "Without You", "Still Dirrty" and "F.U.S.S."[10] "Makes Me Wanna Pray" featuring Steve Winwood features a gospel choir in its arrangement,[17] while the pop/R&B[25] and funk[22] number "Ain't No Other Man" features "aerobic oomph" that is similar to Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love".[22] "Understand" is an R&B ballad,[26] featuring soul influences that are similar to ballads done by Gladys Knight,[22] while "Slow Down Baby" blends old-school and modern R&B with hip hop and soul elements.[26][27] The three follow-ups "Oh Mother", "On Our Way", and "Without You" are the three piano ballads from disc one.[26] "Still Dirrty" was described as a "filthy ghetto strut" with hip hop elements.[28]
The second disc of Back to Basics opens with "Enter the Circus", described as a "carnival-creepy orchestration that sounds like Danny Elfman soundtracking Cabaret" by Tampa Bay Times,[29] and followed by the soft rock-inspired "Welcome".[28] "Candyman" draws inspirations from jazz, blues[26] and swing,[17] and was musically inspired by The Andrews Sisters' 1941 hit "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy".[24] Similarly, "Nasty Naughty Boy" also contains elements of jazz and blues[26] and features "blaring horn section" in its arrangement.[25] On "I Got Trouble", Aguilera sings over a blues-inspired theme[30] that is reminiscent of songs by Bessie Smith.[18] "Mercy on Me" features gospel elements,[30] while the acoustic track "Save Me from Myself" is inspired by country rock genre, different from any other tracks on Back to Basics.[23]
Lyrics
Most songs from Back to Basics were inspired by real-life events that Aguilera had experienced.[6] The track "Oh Mother" talks about Aguilera's childhood with her abusive father; its lyrical theme was compared to Madonna's "Oh Father" (1989).[31] Her marriage with Jordan Bratman was the main theme of the album, with tracks inspired by the event including "Makes Me Wanna Pray",[18] "Ain't No Other Man",[6] "On Our Way", "Without You",[32] "Mercy on Me",[33] "Save Me from Myself" and "The Right Man".[25] On "The Right Man", Aguilera expresses that she has found "the right man" for her imagined daughter as she hopes that the child would not have to experience an abusive childhood like her, "One day, My little girl will reach out her hand and she'll know I found the right man".[34]
Aguilera expresses excitement toward old-school music on "Back in the Day", where she names classic artists including Etta James, Marvin Gaye, Coltrane and Aretha Franklin.[18] "F.U.S.S." (which stands for "Fuck You Scott Storch"),[15] is directly toward producer Scott Storch, who didn't accept Aguilera's offer to produce Back to Basics: "Looks like I didn't need you / Still got the album out".[33] In the lyrics of "Slow Down Baby", Aguilera tells a "lusty" man to leave her alone as she sings, "If you knew anything you'd realise I'm wearing a ring".[35] "Still Dirrty" was described as a sequel to Aguilera's 2002 single "Dirrty", in which Aguilera sings about her "sexual independence", "Why is a woman's sexuality always under so much scrutiny / Why can't she do exactly as she please"[18] and claims that she's "still got the nasty" in her.[24] "Here to Stay" tells how Aguilera is "not just a flash in the pan pop starlet",[25] while "Thank You (Dedication to Fans...)" features voice mails from Aguilera's fans, such as "You're so amazing" or "You inspired me to carry on living..."[36]

In mid-2006, Virgin Media reported that Back to Basics would be released on August 14 that year in the United States.[37] Later, Back to Basics was planned to be released on August 15, 2006 in the region, according to TMZ.[38] The album was leaked in full on August 3.[38]
Aguilera decided to portray her different image and persona from her previous stage name Xtina by adopting a new alter ego called Baby Jane,[39] named after a character of the 1962 film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?.[40] She also changed her public appearance as she removed her piercings,[41] and dyed her hair platinum blonde,[42] inspired by classic Hollywood movie stars such as Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Carole Lombard and Greta Garbo.[37] The album's photography was taken by German photographer Ellen von Unwerth during three days; on the first and second days, the photos were shot at the Hollywood Dell hotel.[43] Aguilera and von Unwerth moved to Forty Deuce in Hollywood to take images inspired by 1920s burlesque clubs on the last day of the session.[43] The album's cover artwork was revealed in late-June 2006, featuring Aguilera with bright red lipstick and curly blonde hair dressed in white and lounging on a bed.[37][43] Greg Kot from The Baltimore Sun labelled the cover as "a classy retro look, a sign that [Aguilera] is ready for her close-up as the leading lady of the teen brat pack that emerged in the late '90s".[44]
The first track from the album to be made available to the public was "Ain't No Other Man", which was released as the lead single to US contemporary hit radio on June 6, 2006.[45] Aguilera was featured in Pepsi's commercial advertisement, which used "Here to Stay", a track from Back to Basics as its main theme.[46] Shot in multiple territories including Saudi Arabia, Prague, Rio de Janeiro, Tokyo, and in India,[47] the 60-second advertisement premiered on July 14, 2006 worldwide.[48] Alongside the commercial, "Here to Stay" was available for digital download on mobile phones as a promotional record to Aguilera's then-upcoming album.[48] "Hurt" and "Candyman" were serviced as the album's second and third international singles on September 17, 2006,[49] and February 20, 2007,[45] respectively. "Slow Down Baby" was released in Australia only on July 28, 2007,[1] while "Oh Mother" was released in several European territories only in late-2007.[2][3] In January 2008, Aguilera released a music video for the track "Save Me from Myself", following Aguilera giving birth to her son Max Bratman.[50]

Thomas Innskeep from Stylus Magazine preferred the first disc of the album over the "ridiculously overblown ballads" on the second disc, adding that Back to Basics was "one of 2006's best when Linda Perry's fingerprints aren't present".[17] Similarly, Yahoo! Music's Dan Gennoe described the first disc as a "low-down and dirty masterpiece", but said the second disc found Aguilera "crashing straight back down again".[28] Paul Flynn from The Observer provided a mixed review, saying that the beginning of the album was "all craft and very little heart"; however, he found the collaborations between her and Perry to be "deeply cinematic".[23] Rolling Stone's Jenny Eliscu opined that the release was "overindulgent and self-important", but would have been "masterful" had it been condensed into a single disc.[24] Kelefa Sanneh from The New York Times gave a mixed review, stating that it "contains a roughly even number of great songs and lousy ones", and sait that "her homages to World War II-era pop music resemble skits more than songs".[73] Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine criticized Aguilera for using a sexual image to overshadow her vocals, but commented that Back to Basics was more "cohesive" than Stripped.[26] Robert Christgau provided a negative review, classifying the album as a "dud" ().[71]
The album received a nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 2007 Grammy Awards and won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Ain't No Other Man".[74] The following year, "Candyman" was nominated for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.[75] In 2006, Back to Basics was named the Best Pop Album of the Year by iTunes.[76] In June 2008, Entertainment Weekly listed the album at number 80 of the 100 best albums of the last twenty-five years.[77] By late 2009, British magazine Daily Mail listed Back to Basics at number 17 on the list of 50 best albums of the 2000s decade.[78]
