Lorde really kept fans waiting for her third studio album, but it seems we won’t have to wait that long for its follow-up. The Grammy-winning singer said her fourth studio album is in the works and said she feels “excited about what’s coming.”

Lorde recently did an in-depth interview with Ensemble, and one of the things she discussed was her plans for the future. Since she took four-year-long breaks between her previous albums, many have wondered if we’ll wait just as long for her next LP.

“It’s always my intention, to move as quickly as I f…ing can and then that ends up taking different forms… It has taken me quite a while [to start working on it]. I mean, I do just take a long time. I do a lot of research, I write a lot down,” the singer explained.

Even though her creative process can take quite a while, Lorde also told Ensemble her next album is in the works, adding “it’s been super exciting and I feel excited about what’s coming.”

Lorde’s third studio album Solar Power hit the shelves in 2021 and debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 chart. The record proved to be pretty polarizing, and the young singer said she experienced “the highest highs and the lowest lows” following its release.
