“Creatively this is the most control I’ve had on a record, to be honest. They’ve all been a little more processed because I was doing the series at the same time. They wanted me to do a couple shows here or there so it was more about me going in to do a track that I loved and it being on the record,” Selena shared.

Selena added, “This time, I got to work with numerous amount of producers that I wanted to work with. I would go in and create a bridge with someone, start from the beginning of the process. From last year recording to now, I’ve gone through a lot and experienced a lot. This is the hardest I’ve worked on a record for sure, so I’m excited. It’s still super dance. It kind of touches into a little bit of an island-y feel, a little bit of a Spanish feel, and there some are very Ellie Goulding in a way. I’m kind of playing with a little bit of everything. It was super fun and hopefully it makes sense!”
