She shared Fancy That's nine-song track list earlier this month and said in her Mixmag cover story, 'All the music sounds so big and grand and present, and I really wanted to make music where it sounds like a statement is being made with the songs.

Fancy That will arrive two years after her debut studio album Heaven Knows, which included her Billboard Hot 100 No. 3 'Boy's a liar Pt. 2' collab with Ice Spice as a bonus track and reached No. 61 on the Billboard 200, and four years after her debut mixtape To Hell With It, which peaked at No. 73 on the Billboard 200.

PinkPantheress Says Hitting Pause on Music Last Year Was ‘For My Own Good'
PinkPantheress is ready to step back into the spotlight after taking a few months to herself. You might recall that last August the 24-year-old British singer born Victoria Walker canceled all of her remaining 2024 tour dates — including festival shows and slots opening for Olivia Rodrigo and Coldplay — to focus on her physical health after saying she'd 'hit a wall.' Now, in a new interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe, the singer says that despite the pushback from her team on hitting pause when things were really starting to hit for her she knew it was the right thing to do.

But not even just because things are rolling, but more because of financial reasons why,' she told Lowe. 'If you agree to do shows and you don't follow through, there's a lot of money being missed out on. There's also a lot of… the opportunity for backlash to be. Really the least of my concerns, was the money.' Pantheress said she's naturally someone who is prone to not looking after herself in an effort to 'push through' difficult times, which has caused problems in the past. 'And that's honestly one of the reasons I lost my hearing this ear because of that,' said the singer who in 2022 called off a performance at Spain's Primavera Festival due to 'partial hearing loss' that left her 80% deaf in her right ear. 'So after that happened, I don't know what it was. I think it was when I started cutting my hair with razor blades where I realized, you know what? I'm actually going to stop now.' The singer who moved to Los Angeles two years ago and now spends her time bouncing between L.A. and London debuted a chopped bob earlier in January and told Lowe that when she cut her hair off she had an epiphany. 'I was like, 'you know what? I'm going to probably take a step back and chill,'' she said. 'And I'm not someone that generally… I don't really suffer with any kind of lapse in judgments when it comes to myself usually, but that's when I knew… I had an impulse to literally get follicles of hair off of me. So I needed to… I was full up.' That's whey she made a decision to step out of the spotlight, something she has no regrets about. 'There was something that I needed to address and so I had to leave,' she said. 'And I did that for my own good. And obviously it was a very sad moment for people that wanted to see me but couldn't see me. But obviously, what goes around comes around, and I'll be back again.' At the time she hopped off the tours, PinkPantheress told fans, 'It is with the heaviest heart that sadly have to announce that i will not be able to continue with the rest of my live shows this year in order to focus on my physical health and overall wellbeing. It appears i have reached a wall which i am struggling to penetrate through. this will include my GUTS tour, Field Day, Summer Sonic, FORM, III Points, and Australia/NZ appearances.' In January, she was featured on Shygirl's 'True Religion' single, which she followed up in April with her own songs, 'Tonight' and 'Stateside,' which will appear on her upcoming nine-song sophomore mixtape Fancy That, due out Friday (May 9).
