The album features his massive, previously released singles “My My My!” and its title track, queer anthem “Bloom”. Bloom is the Australian musician, actor, ex-Dazed 100 winner, and former YouTube phenomenon’s second album following 2015’s Blue Neighbourhood. It was written and produced with Ariel Rechtshaid, Bram Inscore, and Brett McLaughlin, while Ariana Grande and Aussie folk singer Gordi both get feature credits on the album. “I felt like I had to explain myself a lot before – if you’re gonna talk about being gay, you have to talk about coming out and the hardships,” Sivan recently told us of his approach on the album. “Of course, being gay comes with struggles, but that’s not all there is with this community. I’ve met so many people who came out carefree on the other end, even in the face of adversity. My life is sexy and it’s fun and it’s queer and it’s unapologetic. This time I’m gonna go for it.” Revisit our profile of Sivan, and watch him perform Sufjan Stevens’ “Mystery of Love” as part of our Texts series. Listen to Bloom below. Escape the algorithm!
