Lily Allen Set to Release First Album in Seven Times After Writing It in Just 10 Days
Pop icon Lily Allen is making a triumphant return to the music scene, publicizing her first reader in seven times.
The songster-tunesmith, 40, has reportedly inked a deal with BMG to release a secret design that was penned in a whirlwind 10- day creative burst.
Sources close to the project told The Sun’s Bizarre column that the new album is deeply personal.
“Lily wants to really surprise people with this new music, and everyone has been sworn to secrecy,” the insider said.
The record is said to chronicle her move to New York and her emotional journey following the breakdown of her marriage to actor David Harbor.
“There’s a real outpouring of emotions in it. She’s not had the easiest time, and she’s ready to bare her soul,” the source added.
This upcoming LP marks Allen’s first since 2018’s No Shame. Between 2006 and 2018, she released four studio albums and achieved chart-topping success with hits like Smile, The Fear, and Not Fair.

Earlier this year, Allen revealed her music is experiencing a digital revival. Speaking of her, Miss Me? podcast, she noted: “I do find it hard listening to that music. I’m not ashamed of it because I think it was good for what it was at the time.
And actually, I think it does still stand up … It’s having an actual resurgence on the internet. I know because my royalty payments are going up. There are young kids that are into my music now.”
She has been monitoring this renewed interest through streaming platforms, tracking the rise in her royalties and the engagement of a younger fanbase.
Allen also opened up about using music as a coping mechanism. “Music is the one place where I can let it all go. It’s almost like therapy.
I like to write and record at the same time with somebody else in the room – there’s something therapeutic about it.
My producer or my co-writers become almost like therapists because I’m processing the things that I’m going through in real time … I can do that in music, but I can’t really do it when I’m talking to friends or my parents.
It doesn’t mean I’m being inauthentic … I just don’t feel like I can sum things up properly. But I can do it in a three-and-a-half-minute pop song.”
Fans of the London-born singer can expect an emotionally charged album, blending candid storytelling with her signature pop sensibility.
The countdown has officially begun for Allen’s comeback, and anticipation is already building across the UK music scene.
