Tate McRae‘s new musical era has arrived. The pop star dropped her highly anticipated third studio album, So Close to What, on Friday (Feb. 21).

The project features previously released viral singles “It’s ok I’m ok,” “Sports Car” and “2 Hands,” as well as a collaboration with Flo Milli titled “Bloodonmyhands.” Additionally, the album features a collaboration with McRae’s boyfriend, The Kid Laroi, titled “I Know Love.”


McRae shared of the romantic team-up in a recent Spotify listening party. “It was a really funny process, because me and Laroi have never really, like, taken each other seriously,” she laughed. “You know when you’re in a relationship and you sing around each other, but you don’t really, like, sing? So it was a little stressful being in the studio singing and writing in front of him, but it was a cool experience to watch him in his process.”

Following the release of So Close to What, McRae is kicking off a world tour next month. Kicking off March 18 in Mexico City, the Miss Possessive Tour will find McRae traveling through Europe, Canada and North America through the end of September 2025. It’ll feature special guests Zara Larsson and Benee.

So Close to What follows the singer’s 2023 album Think Later. Boosted by hit singles “Greedy” and “Exes,” Think Later bowed at No. 4 on the Billboard 200.
