Marina Is 'Manifesting' Love on New Album, ‘Princess of Power'
Another MARINA album is nearly upon us, which means we'll soon have an entirely new rolodex of glittery alt-pop bangers to soundtrack our summer. According to the singer-songwriter, her latest record PRINCESS OF POWER is a form of 'manifestation music,' as her discography has always been. During a recent interview with Rolling Stone, she got candid about how certain things in her life came true once she released her past fan-favorite albums, The Family Jewels, Electra Heart, and FROOT. 'The Family Jewels was full of manifestation,' she told the outlet. 'It was believing that I deserved… that I could be a star. It was based on what I'd been dreaming of. So, I fully believe this works.' She added that 2015's FROOT 'brought a major love into my life,' and that her Tumblr-era megahit 'Primadonna,' off her album Electra Heart, 'created that lifestyle' of being front and center in the spotlight. As for PRINCESS OF POWER, MARINA describes her track 'Rollercoaster' as 'manifestation music,' as she sings about 'embracing life's highs.' 'It almost always comes true,' she said, adding, 'I want this fresh, free energy.' She explained that she 'manifests finding love' in the song while another track on the album, 'Metallic Stallion,' tells the story of a lover with intimacy issues. The album's title track 'reteaches' her how to love, and according to the artist, she 'had to reconsider' her approach to romance. 'A lot of us, I think, prioritize romantic love. And I've, by force, had to reconsider that,' she said. 'That's massively part of this album as well,' she shared, adding, 'I just really want it to have a positive impact. Otherwise, what's the point of doing anything?' PRINCESS OF POWER drops June 6 along with her fourth single, 'I <3 YOU.' The star has been teasing the track across social media before she takes the stage at New York's Governors Ball music festival on Saturday, June 7. So far, fans have gotten a taste for MARINA's new album with tracks like 'Cuntissimo,' 'Cupid's Girl,' and 'Butterfly.' This marks MARINA's first full-length release since she dropped the deluxe edition of Ancient Dreams in a Modern Land in 2022, and we can't wait for the newness she's bringing with this new era.

Marina Serves Transformative Looks in Her 'Butterfly' Music Video
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Marina Diamandis has evolved from her chrysalis to spread her wings toward another bright and brilliant pop record. Her latest single, 'BUTTERFLY,' introduces a new era and marks her first musical release since 2022. It also comes hot off the release of her literary debut, Eat The World: A Collection of Poems, which dropped last October. Known for her quick-witted lyrical prowess, the artist—who simply goes by the mononym MARINA these days—is back with another alt-pop gem that sees her inching toward greater heights. She's leaving anything that no longer serves her behind as she muses, 'To become a butterfly / Parts of me had to die / Spread my wings in the golden light / and I fly.' Along with the track came an Aerin Moreno-directed music video featuring several ultra-glamorous looks—including one with a bedazzled butterfly perched upon MARINA's signature dark hair. As it starts to take over our social feeds, the visual also premiered on MTV Live, MTVU, MTV Biggest Pop, and on Paramount's billboards in New York's Times Square. 'My next record is very playful and has a character-led concept, but not in the same way as Electra Heart,' MARINA told Plastik magazine in January. 'I found it weighty to have to commit to character for 2 years, and that's not where I'm at now. This next era is very fun. It has a special energy.' As new music is on the horizon, MARINA's also headed on a festival circuit this year with appearances at Coachella, Governors Ball, Bonnaroo, and Osheaga. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be marveling at all of her stunning looks in the 'BUTTERFLY' music video and memorizing the song's lyrics 'til further notice: You Might Also Like Here's What NOT to Wear to a Wedding Meet the Laziest, Easiest Acne Routine You'll Ever Try
