Madison Beer on the Maturity and Emotions of 'locket'

Madison Beer recently experienced a whirlwind of significant moments. The "bittersweet" singer visited Bru in our Los Angeles studios, just after walking the runway at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and announcing her upcoming album, locket, set to release on January 16.

Announcement of 'locket'

Hours before the studio session with Bru, Beer revealed on social media that her fourth album, locket, which she both wrote and co-produced, will drop on January 16.

Emotional Response to the Announcement

“I wasn't anticipating to cry after I posted it,” Madison Beer shared. “Right before I posted it I had like a sample of the vinyl in my bed, and so I just went live for literally 30 seconds, and flashed it right before I posted just to get people excited and I started like shaking. I ended the live and then I posted my announcement, and just weirdly immediately started like hysterically crying. I don't know why.”

She reflected on the significance of this moment:

“I just think it's kind of the end of an old chapter, the beginning of a new one. There's just so much, so many feelings that come along with it, but yeah, I was hit with like a wave of emotion.”

Summary

Madison Beer describes the release of locket as a deeply emotional and transformative milestone, marking both an end and a fresh start in her personal and artistic journey.
