Demi Lovato is back in the pop scene with her latest single, “Fast,” which brings her back to the club-ready, EDM-infused beats that fans loved in hits like “Cool for the Summer” and “Really Don’t Care.” The track features an energetic chorus with lyrics like, “I wanna go fast/ I wanna go hard/ I wanna go anywhere, anywhere you are,” capturing the spirit of carefree fun and freedom that defines the song.
This new track marks a significant shift for Lovato, who had moved away from pop in recent years to embrace a rock direction. Following her 2022 rock album Holy Fvck and the 2023 Revamped — which reimagined her pop hits in a rock style — “Fast” is a sign that Lovato is ready to return to her pop roots. In fact, reports suggest that “Fast” is just a taste of a full album of new dance-pop music that the artist is preparing.
According to Rolling Stone, Lovato’s forthcoming album will be “celebratory dance-pop,” influenced by her relationship with her husband, Jordan “Jutes” Lutes. The album is expected to capture a lighter, more liberated energy as she lets go of inhibitions, a sentiment echoed by the project’s producer, Zhone. "We had so much fun making this music!" Zhone shared, hinting at the upbeat and playful nature of the upcoming release.
To mark her pop return, Lovato has also made amends with another piece of her past. In 2021, she famously criticized The Bigg Chill frozen yogurt shop for displaying calorie counts, calling it “toxic.” However, Lovato recently revisited the store, posting a video of her dessert run and sharing a heartfelt apology with the caption, “Love you Bigg Chill.” This gesture marks a positive step forward in her journey, echoing the themes of growth and reconciliation present in her new music.
As “Fast” climbs the charts and Lovato teases more music, it’s clear that the singer is embracing a new phase in her career, blending her powerful voice with the vibrant energy of pop music. Fans are eagerly awaiting the full album, which promises to bring both fun and emotional depth, much like Lovato’s evolution as an artist. With “Fast” setting the stage, it’s exciting to see how her next pop era will unfold.
