After nearly five years of writing, Lily Rose is ready to share her story like never before with the release of her highly anticipated new album, I Know What I Want, arriving September 26.
Announced today, the 13-track project captures the emotional highs and lows of Rose’s personal journey in recent years. She co-wrote all but two songs on the album, collaborating with acclaimed songwriters including Paul DiGiovanni, Hillary Lindsey, Emily Weisband, and more.
Giving fans a preview of what’s to come, Rose will release the song, “Of Course I Do” this Friday, Aug. 8.
“I’ve been writing for this project for almost five years now and during that time, I have spanned the spectrum of peaks and valleys,” Rose shared. “Through these years, I have known what I want but have been navigating how to get there… and I feel like I finally made it. When it comes to my catalog of songs, a lot of them were written to bring energy to the live show – ‘Of Course I Do’ is the poster child for that. It’s the song I’m most excited to crank up to 10 in my car and play live.”
