Many of our favorite artists are dropping new albums this year, and Selena Gomez is getting ready to join them. She recently shared an update about her plans for the future and said that she’s planning “to make a great album” in 2024.

Gomez recently set down for an interview with Billboard and Rolling Stone and told both magazines that she’s planning to release a new album this year. She told Rolling Stones that her new music comes “from a place of confidence” before dropping some more hints about her next album.

Gomez gave us a taste of her new sound with her latest singles “Single Soon” and “Love On”, but she claims that they might not really be reflective of the project that she’s working on.

“They are in spirit, but I’m excited to explore more styles of music, and I think people will hopefully be surprised by the contrast. I like releasing songs that I love and I care about. I just released them into the world and later comes the full album,” she explained.

Gomez also addressed speculations that she’s planning to retire from music and said it’s “natural for people to take breaks.” She explained that she wants to prioritize acting in the future because she hasn’t done a lot of the things that she wants to do in that space.

Selena Gomez is gearing up for the release of her fourth studio album, and she’s finally ready to share her new music with the world. Love is in the air in the music video for her latest single “Love On”, which sees her fully embracing Parisian chic.

“Love On” celebrates love in many different shapes and forms, and it opens with Gomez holding her puppy, while several couples kiss around her. The rest of the video shows her having the time of her life in a series of glam outfits, and we get to see her doing everything from eating croissants to dancing the night away with the group of ballerinas.

“Love On” is Gomez’s first single of 2024 and it marks her first release since “Single Soon” last year. She’s currently plotting the release of her fourth studio album, which she described as a “real pop record” with no sad song in an interview with Vogue Mexico.

Gomez also recently dropped hints about her plans for the future during an appearance on SmartLess podcast, teasing her potential hiatus from music. She told the hosts “I do feel like I have one more album in me” before adding she’d like to shift her focus to acting.

From Elton John to Elvis Presley, we’ve seen many music icons get Hollywood treatment in recent years, and Linda Ronstadt is the next one in line. The First Lady of Rock is getting her own biopic, with the Grammy-nominated singer Selena Gomez in the lead role.

After months of speculations, Selena Gomez dropped hints about her involvement in this biopic by sharing a photo of Ronstadt’s memoir on Instagram. The Rolling Stone was quick to confirm the rumors, officially announcing that Gomez will play Ronstadt in this biopic, based on her book Simple Dreams.

Gomez’s casting makes sense since she found success as both an actress and a singer. She’s been nominated for two Grammy Awards, while her work as an actress and a producer on Only Murders in the Building earned her several Emmy and Golden Globe nods.

Linda Ronstadt is known by the nickname “The First Lady of Rock” after transcending genres and pushing boundaries with her music over the decades. She’s been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, in addition to winning 11 Grammy Awards.

Ronstadt’s music experienced somewhat of a renaissance in recent years, especially her song “Long Long Time”, which was featured prominently in an episode of the HBO series The Last of Us.

Music is only one of Selena Gomez’s many talents, and it seems she’ll soon stop making it a priority. She dropped hints about a potential retirement in a recent interview and suggested her next album could be her last, as she shifts focus to other creative endeavors.

Gomez recently made an appearance on an episode of the SmartLess podcast alongside Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett. She revealed she’s thinking of putting music on the back burner and focusing on other things, including her acting career, her best-selling cosmetics brand Rare Beauty, and her philanthropic endeavors.

Gomez said she feels like she has one more album left in her, and that she’ll probably choose acting afterward. She also added that music was never her first career of choice, but she fell into it after recording a theme song for Disney’Wizards of Waverly Place.

“I wanted to be an actress, I never really intended on being a singer full-time but apparently that hobby turned into something else. I don’t think I’m the best singer but I do know how to tell stories and I love being able to make songs,” said Gomez.

The two-time Grammy nominee is currently plotting her fourth studio album, which she described as a “real pop record” with an R&B moment in a recent interview with Vogue Mexico.

It’s already been three years since the release of Selena Gomez’s last album Rare, and she’s finally plotting its follow-up. She discussed her upcoming LP in a recent Vogue Mexico cover story and described it as a “real pop record” with no sad songs.

The main topic that Gomez wants to explore on her next album is freedom from the constraints she had when she was 20. Unlike her last record Rare, which tackled the themes of self-love and self-empowerment, while touching upon some of the lowest points of her life, the singer’s next album won’t feature any “sad songs”.

Gomez told Vogue Mexico it took her a long time to start working on new songs because she didn’t have anything to write about after being so used to making “sad girl music”. She wasn’t going through anything that was breaking her down during the writing process, and the sound of her next LP will reflect that.

“I want to try to find ways to make good pop music, with a message that really means something. When people hear [the new album], whether they like it or not, I hope they say ‘That sounds really happy,'” said Gomez.

She also said that her upcoming album will be a “real pop record” with an R&B moment, but added that her latest single “Single Soon” isn’t representative of the whole album.

“Calm Down” by Rema and Selena Gomez is definitely one of the songs that summer 2023 will be remembered by, and it’s finally getting credit where credit is due. This song recently crossed one billion streams on Spotify, making history as the first track led by an African artist to reach this milestone.

“Calm Down” was originally released as one of the songs from Rema’s debut album Rave & Roses, but it became a global sensation after Selena Gomez hopped on the remix of this catchy Afrobeats track. The remix peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, in addition to topping the Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay charts.

Only about a year after the remix with Selena Gomez was released in August last year, “Calm Down” joined the Billions Club on Spotify. This is quite a historic achievement for the Nigerian singer Rema, who became the first lead African artist to cross the one billion mark with a single song.

“It’s a blessing. It’s not just a big win for me, my team, and family; it’s also a big one for the culture. I feel really happy, and I’m really proud of the fans as well for going back to the song and putting people onto the song. Shout-out to the DJs and everyone who made this possible,” said Rema in a statement.

After a lot of anticipation, Selena Gomez finally dropped her first solo single of 2023 – and it was worth waiting for. The offbeat music video for “Single Soon” sees Gomez celebrating her freedom and having the time of her life with her best friends.

The lyrics of “Single Soon” deliver an empowering ode to self-love, and the music video does the same. Gomez is seen picking up a stylish outfit for a wild night out with friends after deciding to break up with her ex. After a night of drinking, dancing, singing karaoke, and swimming in a pool, they all fall asleep together in the same bed.

Gomez described “Single Soon” as “a fun little song I wrote a while back” and added she wanted to share it with fans before the end of the summer, while they wait for the release of her next album.

When discussing her upcoming album with Vanity Fair back in February, Gomez said she’d write ballads for the rest of her life if she could, but she’s currently focusing on making music that will make people smile.

“The music I’m doing right now is about real things that I’m walking through. It’s really powerful, strong, very pop. The theme generally is freedom—freedom from relationships, freedom from the darkness,” she explained.

Selena Gomez is currently promoting the upcoming second season of her show Only Murders in the Building, but that’s not the only thing keeping her busy. The Grammy-nominated singer recently confirmed she’s working on her new album and discussing the possibility of going back to touring.

Gomez recently set down with Deadline for the Crew Call podcast to discuss her Hulu show, but that wasn’t the only topic of the conversation. When asked what’s on the horizon for her after Season 2 of Only Murders in the Building, the singer said she’s currently in Los Angles, working on her new album.

When asked if she’s considering promoting her next album by embarking on a tour, Gomez said she’s open to the possibility of hitting the road.

“I’m open to a tour, one thousand percent, but I obviously have obligations and things I wanna do, so when the time’s right. It’s not the top of my priority list,” she explained.

Gomez hasn’t toured ever since 2016, when she spent three months on the road promoting her album Revival, before canceling the rest of the shows due to health problems. This record was followed by her 2020 album Rare, which produced hit singles  “Lose You to Love Me” and “Look at Her Now”.

It’s already been three years since the release of Selena Gomez’s last album Rare, and she’s finally plotting its follow-up. She discussed her upcoming LP in a recent Vogue Mexico cover story and described it as a “real pop record” with no sad songs.

The main topic that Gomez wants to explore on her next album is freedom from the constraints she had when she was 20. Unlike her last record Rare, which tackled the themes of self-love and self-empowerment, while touching upon some of the lowest points of her life, the singer’s next album won’t feature any “sad songs”.

Gomez told Vogue Mexico it took her a long time to start working on new songs because she didn’t have anything to write about after being so used to making “sad girl music”. She wasn’t going through anything that was breaking her down during the writing process, and the sound of her next LP will reflect that.

“I want to try to find ways to make good pop music, with a message that really means something. When people hear [the new album], whether they like it or not, I hope they say ‘That sounds really happy,'” said Gomez.

She also said that her upcoming album will be a “real pop record” with an R&B moment, but added that her latest single “Single Soon” isn’t representative of the whole album.

“Calm Down” by Rema and Selena Gomez is definitely one of the songs that summer 2023 will be remembered by, and it’s finally getting credit where credit is due. This song recently crossed one billion streams on Spotify, making history as the first track led by an African artist to reach this milestone.

“Calm Down” was originally released as one of the songs from Rema’s debut album Rave & Roses, but it became a global sensation after Selena Gomez hopped on the remix of this catchy Afrobeats track. The remix peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, in addition to topping the Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay charts.

Only about a year after the remix with Selena Gomez was released in August last year, “Calm Down” joined the Billions Club on Spotify. This is quite a historic achievement for the Nigerian singer Rema, who became the first lead African artist to cross the one billion mark with a single song.

“It’s a blessing. It’s not just a big win for me, my team, and family; it’s also a big one for the culture. I feel really happy, and I’m really proud of the fans as well for going back to the song and putting people onto the song. Shout-out to the DJs and everyone who made this possible,” said Rema in a statement.

After a lot of anticipation, Selena Gomez finally dropped her first solo single of 2023 – and it was worth waiting for. The offbeat music video for “Single Soon” sees Gomez celebrating her freedom and having the time of her life with her best friends.

The lyrics of “Single Soon” deliver an empowering ode to self-love, and the music video does the same. Gomez is seen picking up a stylish outfit for a wild night out with friends after deciding to break up with her ex. After a night of drinking, dancing, singing karaoke, and swimming in a pool, they all fall asleep together in the same bed.

Gomez described “Single Soon” as “a fun little song I wrote a while back” and added she wanted to share it with fans before the end of the summer, while they wait for the release of her next album.

When discussing her upcoming album with Vanity Fair back in February, Gomez said she’d write ballads for the rest of her life if she could, but she’s currently focusing on making music that will make people smile.

“The music I’m doing right now is about real things that I’m walking through. It’s really powerful, strong, very pop. The theme generally is freedom—freedom from relationships, freedom from the darkness,” she explained.

Selena Gomez is currently promoting the upcoming second season of her show Only Murders in the Building, but that’s not the only thing keeping her busy. The Grammy-nominated singer recently confirmed she’s working on her new album and discussing the possibility of going back to touring.

Gomez recently set down with Deadline for the Crew Call podcast to discuss her Hulu show, but that wasn’t the only topic of the conversation. When asked what’s on the horizon for her after Season 2 of Only Murders in the Building, the singer said she’s currently in Los Angles, working on her new album.

When asked if she’s considering promoting her next album by embarking on a tour, Gomez said she’s open to the possibility of hitting the road.

“I’m open to a tour, one thousand percent, but I obviously have obligations and things I wanna do, so when the time’s right. It’s not the top of my priority list,” she explained.

Gomez hasn’t toured ever since 2016, when she spent three months on the road promoting her album Revival, before canceling the rest of the shows due to health problems. This record was followed by her 2020 album Rare, which produced hit singles  “Lose You to Love Me” and “Look at Her Now”.
