Given the number of pop stars who have been open about their issues with drug addiction, it’s surprising there aren’t more songs about breaking up with dealers.

This is the third LP in as many years from the 24-year-old pop-rocker who hit the mainstream last year when her anthem “Messy” went viral on TikTok. Kylie Jenner was among the 250,000 people lip-synching along to the snaggy hook: “Cause I’m too messy, and then I’m too f***ing clean.”
