In September, Tate McRae, Uproxx’s May 2022 cover star, set the bar high for her next era with “Greedy,” her unfairly catchy single that has so far peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Global 200 and No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. And it worked. Yes, we’re greedy and want more Tate McRae. Luckily, the ascending Canadian pop star came prepared to satisfy her fans’ craving.
On Monday morning, November 6, McRae announced Think Later, her sophomore album, will arrive on December 8. The LP was executive produced by ubiquitous hitmaker Ryan Tedder. “This new body of work explores the all-too-relatable feelings of falling in love and embracing the raw emotions that you experience as a result of leading with your intuition and heart,” a press release relays.
McRae separately added context in a lengthy Instagram caption, writing, “we’re here guys. my sophomore album. this album means sooo much to me and i can’t believe it’s so close to coming out. writing this whole thing was one of the most stressful, exciting, nerve racking, and fun things i’ve ever gone through.”
She continued, “for the first time in my life i lived this year a little less with my head and a little more with my intuition – and i rlly hope u guys can feel that through the music. through the biggest highs of my life to the lowest of lows – i feel so happy that it is now gonna be yours <3 here’s to 20 years old and figuring who the f*ck i am haha.”
Fans will have 53 opportunities to witness McRae’s self-exploration, as she also confirmed a 2024 world tour, aptly billed as the Think Later Tour. Before then, she will make her Saturday Night Live debut as the musical guest on the November 18 episode hosted by Jason Momoa on November 18.
