Lorde stirred anticipation for new music through an Instagram post that hinted at an imminent release. The 27-year-old singer shared snaps donning headphones, gazing at the camera while resting her face on her hand. Alongside the images, she conveyed a cryptic message to her 11 million followers, stating she was ‘listening to myself.’

The artist, born Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor, sported striped beige pajamas that complemented her vibrant hair. This tease follows a recent open letter from Lorde, fueling speculation about a potential breakup.

During her performance at the Boardmasters Festival in Cornwall, England, last August, Lorde premiered two tracks reportedly titled Silver Moon and Invisible Ink. Despite initial buzz, she refuted these titles as final.

Despite fans’ anticipation for a new album, Lorde clarified on Instagram that no major project was underway, asserting, ‘This is not the start of anything out there, just want u to know there’s a light on inside me.’ When fans questioned her intentions, she reaffirmed her stance, emphasizing she spontaneously decided to share the tracks.

Lorde’s last album, Solar Power, debuted in August 2021, leaving followers eager for more insights into her upcoming musical endeavors based on these intriguing hints.
