Limitless is the twelfth studio album (36th overall) by American singer/songwriter and record producer/arranger Richard Marx, released on February 7, 2020. It is his first studio album since 2014.[1] It was the first time Marx had recorded an album without the conscious thought of making an album.[2]
Marx usually produces his albums by himself but this time, he worked with several different producers, all of whom also co-wrote a majority of the songs on the album as well. His son Lucas was one of the producers who also co-wrote two of the tracks, including the single "Another One Down".
"I wasn't really sure what making a new album meant for an artist like me," Marx said of the creative process behind Limitless. "All I knew was that I still write songs all the time and I realised I had a collection of songs I really liked. In my past, my only criteria were to write and record songs that pleased me, and hopefully other people would like them, too. So I returned to that ideology and dismissed any concerns of stylistic consistency and the next thing I knew, I had recorded a diverse album I really liked."[3]
The album was dedicated to his wife Daisy Fuentes.
Limitless became Marx's first studio album to chart overseas since 2004's My Own Best Enemy.[4]
"Another One Down" was released several months prior to the album and peaked at No. 14 on the Adult Contemporary chart.
