Earlier this week, the singer didn't just sit back when her new music hit the Internet prematurely. "This is artistic rape!! These are early leaked demos, half of which won’t even make it on my album," she wrote in a now-deleted Instagram post on Wednesday, Dec. 17. "The other half have changed and evolved. This is a form of terrorism. Wtf!!!! Why do people want to destroy artistic process??? Why steal? Why not give me the opportunity to finish and give you my very best?"

The ordeal was frustrating, but was eventually the reason why she decided to share the music with her fans early. "I was hoping to release my new single 'Living For Love' on Valentine's Day with the rest of the album coming in the Spring," she said in a press release Friday. "I would prefer my fans to hear completed versions of some of the songs instead of the incomplete tracks that are circulating. Please consider these six songs as an early Christmas gift."
