On Thursday, February 20, 2025, artist Cynthia Erivo posted a 16-second sneak peek of her upcoming music on her Instagram account. The video opened with a close-up shot of her whistling in sync with the beat playing in the background.

As the clip progressed, it transitioned to scenes of Erivo enjoying the music, showcasing her nails and jewellery while writing in a journal filled with handwritten notes.

The reel's audio featured only a whistled sound, with no additional vocals.

Toward the end, Erivo appeared on screen, gazing directly into the camera before the clip abruptly cut to the text "FEB 28," strongly suggesting that a new release, possibly an album or a single, is set for February 28, 2025.

The Instagram post was accompanied by a numerical caption, encouraging fans to sign up for real-time updates on the forthcoming music.

"Text 310-421-0741 🕊," Erivo wrote.

In early February 2025, Cynthia Erivo appeared for an interview on CBS News Sunday Morning, discussing her forthcoming music. During the conversation, Erivo revealed that she and her team have crafted the project using a diverse range of sounds she can create.

"Some of it is train of thought... We've built a lot of music using the sounds that I can make. Often the lyrics come after the vocal pad. They sort of happen as I'm recording it. So I record a line and they'll be a line playing in my head, as I'm recording a different line," Erivo said.

BroadwayWorld reports that the forthcoming album, whose title has not yet been revealed, is reportedly set for a summer 2025 release and is partly autobiographical.

However, Erivo has not yet commented on the album's official release.
