Addison Rae has officially announced her debut studio album, ‘Addison’.
The viral pop sensation has subtly revealed on the pre-order page for the record that it will be the “first and last album by Addison Rae,” suggesting she will drop her surname for future releases.
Although there is no tracklisting yet, the LP will feature the singles ‘Diet Pepsi’, ‘Aquamarine’, ‘High Fashion’, and ‘Headphones On’.
Addison worked with Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjärd – who work for Max Martin’s publishing company MXM studios – and were inspired by the duo’s work on Madonna’s 1998 album ‘Ray Of Light’.
They once again utilised the 1988 Korg M1 synthesizer for that ’90s house feel.
Addison previously announced the release date of the album, June 6, on her underwear at Coachella.
The singer was a special guest during Arca’s set on April 13, and delighted fans with the unusual method for teasing her record.
The reveal came as she gave the live debut of ‘Arcamarine’, the B-side of her hit ‘Aquamarine’ featuring the Venezuelan musician.
Meanwhile, Addison previously credited Charli xcx with helping her to become a pop star.
Addison her major label debut single ‘Diet Pepsi’ in 2024 and is grateful for the ‘Apple’ hitmaker’s knowledge for helping her make a splash in the industry, after the pair teamed up on the remix of her ‘Brat’ track ‘Von Dutch’.
She was quoted by the Daily Star newspaper’s Wired column as saying: “It’s inspiring, being around somebody like Charli who has been around so long and has continuously followed her heart with who she is in the music and everything, it’s really inspiring to just watch that and see her doing it so fearlessly.
“And for me it was leaning into that and not being afraid to chase those dreams.”
Some observers have questioned Addison’s musical prowess because she found fame on social media – accumulating more than 88 million followers on TikTok – but she isn’t paying attention to the negativity.
The 24-year-old star said: “There’s no right or wrong way to get where I want to go. It’s OK if it doesn’t look the same.
“A lot of people will be afraid and feel maybe they’re not good enough, now I’ve got to the stage where I’m like that’s just part of the journey.
“I’m not afraid to continue making mistakes as long as I’m learning.”
