Last month, Billboard published a gloomy survey of record-label executive sentiment about the state of the music industry, which noted that it had been near-impossible to “break” new stars. The ability to create a viral smash on TikTok has also led to an oversaturated landscape in which everything feels fleeting. One exception to this shift, Carrie Battan writes, is the 20-year-old former Disney star and vocal powerhouse Olivia Rodrigo. Rodrigo became a pandemic-era success with her single “Drivers License,” and début album, “Sour,” which won her three Grammys. Rodrigo’s new record, “Guts,” comes loaded with not only the normal expectations surrounding a sophomore album but also with ideas about the health of the entire music industry. Though Rodrigo has spoken about being paralyzed by these expectations, “Guts” does not betray any of that worry. Instead, “ ‘Guts’ is a transitional record on which Rodrigo begins to turn the mirror away from her exes and playfully, brashly toward herself,” Battan writes. At the link in our bio, read her review of Rodrigo’s new record—a fusion of piano balladry and retro pop-punk, layered with flavors of grunge and emo.
