Background

On February 12, 2022, Max cut off her signature "Max Cut" and dyed her hair red, sparking rumors about the start of a new era.[1] On March 2, 2022, she confirmed that a song titled "Maybe You're the Problem" would be the lead single. She also stated that her upcoming album would be her most personal album to date.[2] In an interview with Billboard, she revealed that she had been working on the album for the whole of 2021, which she refers to as "the hardest year" of her life.[3] She also stated that she was "terrified" as her recently recorded music became more vulnerable.[4]

On June 1, 2022, she revealed the album name and the original cover art, first on social media, then on The Today Show.[5] Max was seen on the original cover art covered in diamonds on the cover with a diamond in her mouth.[6] The album is set to include 14 tracks in total.[7] When asked about the sound and lyrics, she replied saying, "it will make you cry and dance at the same time". She described the album as "basically heartbreak on the dancefloor".[8]

The album was set for release on October 14, 2022, but was postponed to January 27, 2023. It consequently received a new cover art which was unveiled on December 19, 2022.
