Album Notes & Community Reviews

The sophomore studio effort from the American pop vocalist is a loose concept album interpreting the Romeo and Juliet tragedy through a dystopian, cinematic lens. The production recruits heavy hitters like Greg Kurstin and Benny Blanco to construct slick, R&B-infused electropop soundscapes. The record debuted at the top of the Billboard 200, solidifying her transition from an internet-cultured alternative artist to a mainstream pop fixture.
