Miley Cyrus just casually announced that she’s closing in on finishing a new album, revealing in an interview published Monday (July 27) that her 10th full-length project will revolve around the love she’s nurtured for both herself and fiancé Maxx Morando.

“This album is a love story, but love stories are never one-dimensional,” she told Daryl Hannah for the latest issue of Wonderland, which Cyrus guest edited. “They’re always layered.”


According to the publication, the star’s next full-length may come in a matter of months, possibly before the 2027 Grammys in February. “There is definitely a romantic thread weaving through it because, like all my records, it’s a reflection of where I am in my life,” Cyrus continued of the LP, noting it will have 10 tracks. “But this one feels especially meaningful because this feeling has stayed with me through multiple eras.”

“That’s something I hadn’t really experienced before,” she added. “A peaceful kind of love has become a theme across my last three records. Not just the love I share with someone else, but the love I’ve found for myself. That’s probably been the biggest evolution. Once your relationship with yourself changes, every relationship around you changes too. I think this record celebrates both of those equally.”

The former Disney star’s news comes on the heels of the announcement that she’d found a new label home Atlantic Records, which is owned by Warner Music Group, after 13 years with Sony. Her last album with prior label Columbia was Endless Summer Vacation, which reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and spawned the Grammy-winning, eight-week Billboard Hot 100-topper “Flowers.”

“Usually I’m very certain of the destination, and sometimes that can almost obliterate the journey because I’m so focused on getting somewhere,” Cyrus said in the new interview. “This one was different. It was organic and really unforced. Something that was super helpful this time was I started with the tracklist and never veered from it. I knew it would be 10 songs. I roughly knew the sound and the concept. That gave me a really strong compass without making the process feel forced.”

Masego Finds New Ground With ‘Fix Your Face’ Album and Tour

The Jamaican-American singer speaks on bringing his latest tour to Canada and the unteaching and re-learning approach that defined his recent album Fix Your Face, including studying music by PartyNextDoor and giving his own singing a more central role.

Masego is shedding skin in his latest creative chapter.

The Jamaican-American singer has been touring across North America in support of his recent album Fix Your Face, released in July, which puts his singing more prominently at the forefront than ever before. That shift has also changed the way he approaches the stage, something audiences witnessed at Montreal's Beanfield Theatre and Toronto's Massey Hall on Aug. 28-29.
