In a recent interview with The Cookout, global pop sensation Billie Eilish dropped tantalizing hints about her forthcoming musical endeavors, sending waves of excitement through her fanbase. The Grammy-winning singer revealed, "There is lots of music coming," emphasizing, "There is a whole album of music coming. We’re in the final stages of making it, so that doesn’t mean it’s about to come out, but it is getting there and it’s very exciting."
Eilish, however, remained tight-lipped regarding a potential release date or title for her highly-anticipated follow-up to the critically acclaimed 2021 album, "Happier Than Ever." She also dispelled speculations surrounding a new live documentary project after host Eliott inquired about her recent appearance donning a GoPro camera during a live performance.
Addressing the curiosity, Eilish explained, "I put a GoPro on, because after the shows I run out into the crowd and jump up on the barricade and grab everybody… really they grab me, and I just submit to it. I just put myself there, whatever happens, happens. Whoever grabs what, I submit myself… I open my arms and just let them hug me and grab my arm and touch me. I just think it’s really special to do that and I get so much out of it even though it’s terrifying a little."
Eilish also recounted the spontaneous creation of her soul-stirring track, "What Was I Made For?" in the studio. The singer, along with her producer and co-writer brother Finneas, faced a frustrating session where inspiration seemed elusive. "I was literally leaving, I was walking out the door. It was late, I’d been there for six hours or something and Finneas was like, ‘hold on, should we try to write this song?'" she recounted.
Initially hesitant, Eilish recalled her reservations, pondering, "‘How are we going to write a song that’s good enough right now on a day that we suck for something so important?'" However, the duo defied the odds, crafting almost the entire song in just a few hours. Reflecting on the remarkable feat, Eilish marveled, "It’s insane? When does that ever happen?"
