Troye Sivan Talks ‘Chaotic’ New Album & Getting Madonna’s Approval for ‘Party’: ‘I Was Pleasantly Surprised’
The Aussie pop star and his collaborators — Leland & Troye's brother Tyde Levi — sit down with the Billboard Pop Shop Podcast to discuss new album She's the Best , out Friday.
Troye Sivan's new album, 'Chaotic,' was released on Interscope and marks a shift from his previous euphoric sound. Sivan wanted the album to capture the push-and-pull between feeling empowered on stage and isolated in his hotel room. He enlisted his closest collaborators, including Jack Antonoff, Allie X, Leland, Charli xcx, Tyde Levi, and Tyde's brother Tyde, to co-write and co-produce the album.
The title track, "Chaotic," and the Madonna-sampling single "Party" showcase the album's duality. The duo discussed the album's creation, stating that while they aimed for a marketable single sentence on their last album, this one was more about their personal experiences. They also touched on the dynamic of working with long-term collaborators and Tyde's unexpected contribution to the Madonna-sampling "Party" track.
