Demi Lovato is back with her new album, Dancing With the Devil…The Art of Starting Over. It’s the singer’s first album since 2017’s Tell Me You Love Me. The new album features Ariana Grande, Noah Cyrus, Sam Fischer, and Saweetie. The album’s title track details her nearly fatal drug overdose in 2018.
The album was originally titled just The Art of Starting Over, but Lavato says she gave it a double title to highlight the importance of her four-part documentary series Demi Lovato: Dancing with the Devil, which details her rise to fame as well as her drug use, sexual traumas, and her eating disorders. During a live stream on Clubhouse, Lovato explained the album’s layout.
“If you listen to it track by track, if you follow the tracklisting, it’s kind of actually like the non-official soundtrack to the documentary,” said Lovato. “Because it really does follow my life over the past couple of years. When we went through the tracklisting and kind of mapped out how it kind of coincided with my life’s story, it made sense to add the more emotional stuff in the beginning and then transition into The Art of Starting Over.”
