Tulisa has revealed that she wants to rediscover her love of music and take her solo career back to "basics".

The singer released her debut solo record 'The Female Boss' in 2012, but it only charted at No.35 in the UK.

Whilst flagship single 'Young' hit No.1 in the singles chart, Tulisa's other tracks didn't fare quite so well.

Speaking to the Daily Star, the X Factor judge said that she aims to continue her solo career despite her setbacks, with a change in sound on the cards. She said:

"I'm going to make a few singles soon, and I want to take my sound back to basics. I want to just make songs that I really love from now on."

Contostavlos continued: "My first single Young got to No 1, and that’s because it was a very UK-sounding track – and I realise now that’s what the fans want."
