Album information

''Angel with an Attitude'' was Fox's first studio album in seven years, following 1998's '' 21st Century Fox''. Fox wrote "Angel with an Attitude" after a trying court case with her father, Patrick Fox, who had embezzled over £1 million from her accounts. Fox describes the title track as one of the deepest songs she ever wrote. Fox's new manager, Myra Stratton, encouraged her to take a two-year break from music during which time Fox wrote the rest of the album, gaining inspiration from her growing relationship with Stratton. In the course of working on her autobiography, Fox realized that she had crossed an important chapter in her life, and began to commit her life stories to verse. According to Fox the lyrics "show my weakness, joy, moments of total euphoria, but also sadness. These words simply flowed from my heart." The songs reflect her despondency over past troubles as well as her ambition to overcome. The work was a progression from her earlier, less serious recordings as Fox sought to apply her experiences as a mature woman to the album. As a result, she says, this album comes the closest to reflecting who she really is. Fox describes the album as a "blend of rock with electronic sounds". She recorded it in
