Miley Cyrus' Evolution: Fresh Music Release - Emerging rock legend reaches maturity.
On May 30, Miley Cyrus, the 32-year-old pop artist and Grammy winner, will release her ninth studio album, titled "Something Beautiful." This new project comes amidst a thriving pop music scene dominated by notable female artists such as Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Billie Eilish, Sabrina Carpenter, Lorde, and Charli XCX. However, Cyrus' victory at last year's Grammy Awards lingers as proof of her enduring influence.
The album consists of 13 songs, totaling approximately one hour of music, and departs from the rowdy or shrill sounds commonly associated with pop music. Instead, it presents a subtle nod to old Hollywood, filled with heartfelt ballads and a touch of disco, devoid of lightweight pop tunes.
"Something Beautiful" explores themes of love, grace, dreams, and rebirth. Cyrus appears to have found her niche as a musician, growing steadily from her previous role as Hannah Montana and the subsequent struggle for recognition as a singer. She also sought attention through unconventional means, but today, she seems more mature and assured than ever.
In a short film accompaniment scheduled for a global cinema release in June, Cyrus visually expresses her tracks. She revealed that the film's budget primarily went towards outfits, a statement made during her appearance on the US talk show, Jimmy Kimmel.
Cyrus attributes her smoky voice to a polyp on her vocal cord, a condition that she described as challenging during performances, likening it to running a marathon with weights on her ankles. She discussed this with Zane Lowe on Apple Music.
Drawings parallels with Pink Floyd's 1982 music drama, "The Wall," Cyrus described the atmosphere of her new album as "hypnotic and glamorous." In an interview with Lowe, she explained that she has fused all aspects of herself within "Something Beautiful." The album can be seen as an evolution from her previous work, particularly her best-selling hit, "Flowers," which topped charts in the US and Germany, and dominated social media.
Standout tracks on the album include "Easy Lover," which Cyrus recently teased on Instagram, and "Reborn." This release is not confined to die-hard fans but offers a compelling blend of catchy melodies and fresh perspectives for those less familiar with Cyrus' work. The perfect choice for sunny afternoons on the terrace.
The new album, "Something Beautiful," by Miley Cyrus, presents a blend of heartfelt ballads, disco elements, and a subtle nod to old Hollywood, offering a mature evolution from her past work and venturing into the realm of enthralling entertainment through music. In her upcoming album, the memorable lyric, "♪ I'm gonna be the one who's gonna make you cry ♪," suggests a hint of raw emotion and vulnerability that transcends the typical pop music scene.
