Addison Rae, a name that burst onto the music scene from the world of social media, is set to take another step in her burgeoning music career with the release of her debut album, titled Addison, scheduled for release on June 6, 2025. Initially known for her success on platforms like TikTok, Rae has strategically transitioned into music. This journey began with her first single “Obsessed” in 2021 and continued with her breakthrough EP AR. Over the past year, she has released a string of singles, including “Diet Pepsi”, “Aquamarine”, “High Fashion”, and the recently unveiled “Headphones On”. These tracks will feature prominently in her upcoming self-titled album, signaling her full-fledged embrace of the musical persona she has carefully crafted.

The announcement of Addison was made amid a flurry of excitement marked by Rae’s appearance at Coachella 2025, where she teased her fans about the project. The album cover art, just as engaging as the music promises to be, shows the singer peering over her shoulder through a delicate curtain of tulle, a visual representation that fits well with the album's nostalgic early 2000s vibe. The choice to make the album eponymous signifies a personal connection to the work, highlighted by Rae commenting that it’s her “proudest work yet” — a deeply introspective project that reflects her desire for self-discovery and understanding.

The creation process of Addison involved collaboration with notable music producers like Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjärd. Both are known for their innovative approach to pop music, having worked under the aegis of Max Martin’s publishing company, MxM Music. Their influence is anticipated to deliver a fresh yet familiar sound that imbues Rae’s personal touch. Rae's artistic vision for this album seems deeply inspired by her background as a dancer, a theme she touches upon in discussions about how dance influenced the rhythmic essence of her tracks — music that evokes motion both in physical and emotional landscapes.

A significant element of the album’s backstory is Rae’s assertion that *Addison* might be her “first and last album,” a statement she has addressed by suggesting potential rebranding. This assertion has intrigued fans and prompted speculation, indicating her understanding of the evolving nature of artistry and public persona. Regardless of future plans, Rae emphasizes a commitment to authenticity and staying true to her vision.

In terms of distribution, the album will be available in several formats, including limited editions that cater to her diverse fanbase. For vinyl enthusiasts, translucent light blue and tangerine versions add a collector's appeal, while traditional black vinyl and a signed CD option provide classic alternatives. This variety not only highlights Rae’s attention to detail but also her understanding of the tactile relationship fans often have with music.
