With 30 million albums sold worldwide and the prestigious honor of being the only artist under the age of 30 included in Rolling Stone Magazine’s list of the 100 greatest singers of all time, five time Grammy Award winner Christina Aguilera has already achieved an unprecedented level of success.

The title Bionic reflects Aguilera’s ability to take her range to new levels and use her voice in various ways never heard before.
With over a decade in the game to her name, it’s pretty safe to say that Christina knows what she’s doing, even if her harshest critics fail to realize it. The music speaks for itself.
