Chappell Roan Says She Has ‘No Idea’ What Her Next Album Will Sound Like: ‘That’s the Scary Part’
Chappell Roan plans to begin her second album after recovering stability following Los Angeles wildfires that disrupted her routine and creative process, with three singles reaching top 5 on the Hot 100.
- On Tuesday, Chappell Roan told Zane Lowe she has `no idea` what her next album will sound like and remains far from complete.
- Earlier this year, Los Angeles wildfires displaced Roan for months, and she says she needs to feel `settled` in a routine before writing.
- Supporting evidence highlights fan approval, as Roan's three singles—The Giver, The Subway, and a third single—each reached the Billboard Hot 100 top 5 despite stylistic differences.
- With tour dates ahead, she said Roan has U.S. shows scheduled for February and March next year and an April break before writing new music.
- In broader context, Roan highlighted it took five years to write her debut album and expects at least five years for her next, reflecting a long creative cycle.
