‘Something Beauiful' is arriving May 30th for Miley Cyrus fans.

Miley Cyrus is once again making waves in the music world with the impending release of her ninth studio album, Something Beautiful. This highly anticipated visual album is set to drop on May 30 and promises to be a transformative experience, combining rich storytelling and captivating visuals. Cyrus is no stranger to pushing the boundaries of her artistry, and this latest project appears to be no exception. The album, teased through cryptic social media posts and a visually striking trailer, has fans excited for what appears to be yet another bold evolution in the singer's career.

The cover art for Something Beautiful, which Cyrus unveiled on Instagram, depicts the pop star clad in a vintage Thierry Mugler couture piece. Captured by renowned photographer Glen Luchford, the artwork mirrors Cyrus's vision for the album—a blend of innovative, genre-defying music and vibrant visual elements. In her artistic journey, Cyrus has continually sought to redefine the pop music landscape, and Something Beautiful is seen as her next big move to intrigue and captivate her listeners.

Cyrus has been transparent about her inspirations for the album, noting that it draws heavily from Pink Floyd’s The Wall and the film Mandy. This influence is evident in the concept of the visual album that will accompany the music, described as a “pop opera” incorporating elements of fantasy and personal narratives. Anticipation is also mounting for the theatrical release of the visual album, slated for June, where it promises to deliver a unique blend of music and cinema.

Shawn Everett, a seasoned producer known for his collaborations with artists like Kacey Musgraves, co-executive produced the album alongside Cyrus. They have crafted an auditory experience that the artist describes as hypnotizing, glamorous, and therapeutic. Cyrus has shared that the concept behind the music is to find beauty even in the darkest moments of life, and her intent is to use music as a means to heal and medicate cultural malaise.

Something Beautiful comprises 13 tracks that span different emotions and stories, making it not just an album, but an immersive experience. The production of the album and its accompanying film showcases the combined efforts of industry titans like Columbia Records, Live Nation, and XYZ Films. Early glimpses into the project reveal haute couture styling from fashion houses such as Jean Paul Gaultier, Alexander McQueen, and vintage Mugler. These elements highlight Cyrus's commitment to a visual narrative that matches the depth and diversity of her musical output.

This release marks Cyrus’s first major project since her 2023 album Endless Summer Vacation, which achieved significant commercial and critical success. That album featured groundbreaking tracks like “Flowers”, which won her Grammy Awards and further established her as a dominant force in pop music. With Something Beautiful, Cyrus is poised to continue her legacy of innovation, building on the foundation of her previous successes while branching into new artistic territories.
