It's no secret that we've been desperate to hear new Christina Aguilera music, ever since she ended her 'Lotus' campaign back in 2013. The 'Can't Hold Us Down' hitmaker is an icon and as great as pop is, it feels somewhat empty without her running it.

Thankfully the wait isover. Christina is back and'Accelerate' is one of the standout singles of her career to date.

'WATCH CHRISTINA'S STUNNING 'ACCELERATE' VIDEO BELOW...'

NO. WE'RE NOT JOKING. YOU CAN LISTEN TO BRAND NEW CHRISTINA AGUILERA MUSIC RIGHT NOW.

The 'Ain't No Other Man' superstar began teasing new music earlier this week with an array of mysterious videos and clues before announcing that she would be returning today at 13:00 (GMT). 'Accelerate' is an instantly memorable pulsating club bop.

The single features Ty Dolla $ign and 2 Chainz and it is easily one of her most experimental releases to date.

From the effortless vocals to the unique production, we've really missed hearing new Christina music.

'Accelerate' is the lead single from Christina's highly anticipated eighth studio album 'Liberation'. Rumours that theLP would betitled 'Liberation'surfaced earlier this year. Christina has now confirmed them and revealed that the album is out June 15th.

Not only that but it stars a new duet called 'Fall In Line' with fellow powerhousevocalist Demi Lovato.

We cannot wait for Christina to reveal more details about the project.

Until then we'll be playing 'Accelerate' on repeat. Our fave is back!
