During the interview, Smith shared, “Over the past year and a half, I’ve been pouring my heart and soul into the studio. This new album is by far my most personal and profound musical endeavor yet. Its essence revolves around the theme of ‘Dance in your darkest moments.'”
A teaser post on Smith’s Instagram on a Tuesday showcased a snippet of his collaboration with Russ titled “Work Of Art,” where Smith excitedly announced, “I just wrapped up my album.”
The title of the album, “Dance In Your Darkest Moments,” appears to have been revealed, as the phrase already has a dedicated Instagram page and website.
