Addison Rae’s hopes to drop her debut album were put to rest after several of her songs were leaked online, but she decided to do something about it. TikTok star compiled her “lost” songs into her first EP AR, featuring a collaboration with Charli XCX “2 Die 4”.
After making her debut with the single “Obsessed” in 2021, Rae was determined to share her first album with the world as soon as possible, but her plans quickly fell apart. Following the leak of the music she recorded for her “lost album”, Rae decided to scrap several leaked songs and start anew.
Rae eventually decided to release these songs through official channels as a part of her first EP AR. This was her way of giving “a little sign-off” to her first chapter as a musician before moving on to the next one.
“A few of you may have heard these songs after they were unfortunately leaked last year.. but if you loved them, now you can listen to them on all streaming platforms!!! Ahhh!! If you haven’t heard them, I hope you take a listen and they make you dance!!” she wrote on Instagram.
AR hit the shelves on August 18, and the standard edition features a total of four tracks: “I Got It Bad”, “Nothing On (But the Radio)”, “It Could’ve Been U”’, and “2 Die 4” featuring Charli XCX.
