Who's Your Momma is the fifth studio album by Dutch pop rock singer Anouk. It was released on November 23, 2007 in the Netherlands and Belgium.[1] It is her first studio album of new material since Hotel New York in December 2004. Who's Your Momma debuted at number one in the Netherlands[2], making it her fifth number one album and fourth debut at the top. The album contains the soul-influenced rock first single "Good God". In May 2008, the single "Lost" from her previous studio album Hotel New York reached the number 2 position in Norway. Therefore, EMI decided to release the album in Norway in June 2008 and add "Lost" to the track listing.

[edit] Controversy
In May 2008, Dutch radio DJ Giel Beelen played an unofficial song from Anouk, "With You", on his radio show. He downloaded the song from a fansite of the singer. Anouk's record company EMI Music was not supportive and ordered Beelen to stop playing it.[4] The song was used as a potential first single in Canada a few years ago, but was never released physically.[5] Beelen didn't listen and played the song again. And with success: in September 2008 the song was released as a double a-side with the fourth and final single from the album, "If I Go".
[edit] Charts, certifications and sales
The album debuted at number one in the Netherlands.[2] After one week and a half, the album got certified platinum already.[6] In Belgium (Flanders), the album debuted lower, at number 20, and moved up to number 7 the next week, receiving a gold certification in that week.[7]
