Billie Eilish Billboards Tease 3rd Studio Album Coming Soon
Billie Eilish attends the 2024 People's Choice Awards at Barker Hangar on February 18, 2024 in Santa Monica, California.
Billie Eilish fans are getting “Happier Than Ever” as the artist has been popping up on a series of billboards. Apparently, these billboards appearing in major cities across the world are teasing Eilish’s new album.
Billie Eilish Billboards Tease 3rd Studio Album
The billboards don’t show the Grammy-winners name, but it includes her “blohsh” logo and what seems to be lyric snippets. Some lines featured in the advertisements include: “Did I cross the line?,” “I try to live in black and white.” and “She’s the headlights I’m the deer.”
The billboards feature a shade of blue that is now the profile photo and backdrop of her social media accounts. One fan theorizes on X (formerly Twitter), “those are lyrics from the unreleased ‘true blue‘ it’s finally coming.” She has performed the song while on tour.
Another fan wrote: “BE3 IS COMING GET UP.” One fan demanded, “we been waiting 3 years she better give us enough tracks and a deluxe.” A third crooned, “interscope spending BUDGET like this means it’s really something my god the line is super busy this year.”
Eilish’s team used a similar tactic in 2021 to tease the release of her second studio album, Happily Ever After.
As we previously reported, Eilish and her brother and musical collaborator Finneas first teased the new album back in September. “There is lots of music coming. There is a whole album of music coming. We’re in the final stages of making it, so that doesn’t mean it’s about to come out, but it is getting there, and it’s very exciting.” A month later, she revealed they have been “filming the whole creation of the next album we’re working on.” Then, in February, Eilish revealed that her new album has been mastered, which is usually the last step before an album is manufactured and sent to streaming services.
Before she penned the award-winning Barbie track, “What Was I Made For?” Eilish was “concerned” that her music career was over. When she and Finneas were trying to write music, “it wasn’t doing what it usually would do in me” and she thought she hit her peak. Getting the call from director Greta Gerwig in last January was what changed everything for the 22-year-old singer-songwriter. She went so far as to say the director “saved” her and Finneas from the despairing slump. “It brought us out of it, and immediately we were inspired and wrote so much more after that.”
Billie Eilish's 10 Best Music Videos
Billie Eilish has put out her fair share of music videos since 2016, starting with her breakthrough single, “Ocean Eyes.” Since then, the now 22-year-old singer-songwriter has created some of the most visually stunning videos any female artist her age has ever accomplished. Two of her music videos have received over 1 billion views on YouTube: her collaborative song “lovely” with Khalid and 2019’s hit, “bad guy.” She has 24 other music videos that have over 100 million views on the site alone.
Eilish’s first studio album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? released in 2019 as one of the best-selling albums of the year, which she received multiple Grammys for. The 14-song album featured such hits as “you should see me in a crown,” “all the good girls go to hell,” “bury a friend,” and “when the party’s over.” The following year, Eilish performed the theme song “No Time to Die” for the James Bond film of the same name, which is arguably one of her most moving songs to date. By 2021, Billie released her second studio album, Happier Than Ever, which featured the song of the same name, as well as “my future,” “Your Power,” and “NDA.”
As we previously reported, the musician thought her career was over before she got a big break in 2023 with the Barbie film soundtrack. Before she and her frequent collaborator and brother FINNEAS penned “What Was I Made For?”, Eilish was honestly concerned about her music career. “I was honestly like, ‘Damn, maybe I hit my peak, and I don’t know how to write anymore?’” she said during The Hollywood Reporter‘s songwriter roundtable in November. She credits the call from Barbie director Greta Gerwig for saving her and Finneas from the despairing slump. “It brought us out of it, and immediately we were inspired and wrote so much more after that.” The song has now been streamed over a billion times.
