24 OCTOBER 2025 (TORONTO, ON) – Today, GRAMMY® Award-winning history-making superstar Alessia Cara unveils the deluxe edition of her acclaimed fourth full-length album, Love & Hyperbole, available now via Def Jam Recordings / Universal Music Canada. Listen HERE.
She has notably added eight previously unreleased songs to this bold body of work as well as releasing a visual for stand out track “Fire”. Among the new material, “Easy” pairs softly plucked ethereal guitar with an inventive rhythm. The beat kicks into high gear and underlines a confession on the breezy chorus, “You don’t make it easy, I could get used to it.” Elsewhere, her warm delivery practically melts into a sultry beat and smooth bassline on “Sunday.” She softly sings, “You feel like Sunday when you touch me, wanna lay here a little more, you somehow make a bad thing not hurt anymore.” Then, there’s “Clean.”Eighties synths glimmer and glow, cymbals stutter, and her voice booms with confidence as she reminds a toxic ex, “No blood on my hands, baby I’m clean, your karma’s gonna come around.” She notably joined forces with R&B powerhouse Lucky Daye on a duet version of “(Isn’t It) Obvious),” and Tiny Habits on the smoldering “Fire.” She rounds out the deluxewith acoustic versions of “Dead Man” and “(Isn’t It) Obvious).”
Check out the full tracklisting below.
Of course, she preceded its release with the collaborative version of the fan favorite “Nighttime Thing” featuring Julia Michaels out now. Listen HERE. Julia adds another dimension to the song altogether, locking into a smooth and sultry back-and-forth with Alessia. Together, their voices uplift this lovestruck anthem highlighted by the unshakable hook, “I think I like you like that—like that.”
Next week, Alessia will hit the road on an upcoming North American headline tour for two weeks. In advance of the first date in San Francisco on October 29 at The Fillmore, San Francisco Chronicle praised, “authenticity remains at the core of her music today,” going on to marvel at how, “the Grammy-winning singer-songwriter has continued to evolve, crafting introspective yet uplifting music anchored by her unmistakably soulful voice.” Following opening night in the Bay Area, this jaunt rolls down to Los Angeles, CA on October 30 for a show at the Orpheum theatre, crosses the country, and concludes on November 12 in Philadelphia, PA at Keswick Theatre.
Thus far, the original Love & Hyperbole has earned widespread acclaim. GRAMMY.com raved, “Love & Hyperbole is Cara’s most emotive album to date,” and DIY awarded it “4-out-of-5 stars,” proceeding to applaud, “Placed against a landscape of infectious basslines, sensual strings, and irresistible hooks, the record is a lesson in timings, accepting the past, and embracing an unwritten future.” Atwood Magazine christened it “her most intimate and raw work yet.” CLASH professed, “‘Love & Hyperbole’ is anthemic, self-aware and shows listeners how confident Alessia is in herself as an artist.”
She paved the way for Love & Hyperbole with the single “Slow Motion.” EUPHORIA. wrote, “Cara has been experimenting more and more with jazz elements with this upcoming album, and “Slow Motion” is no different,” going on to profess, “The beauty is in the general song.” Billboard attested, “For Alessia Cara, emotion and connection is at the heart of her creative endeavors — hence why each of her three studio albums live in a unique world full of signature concepts, colors and themes built around them. Her music isn’t just a listening experience, it’s a feeling.” It arrived on the heels of the standout “(Isn’t It) Obvious,” which featured a guitar solo from John Mayer. The latter has already generated millions of streams and counting in addition to earning critical praise. Not to mention, she delivered a showstopping performance of the track on Good Morning America. Watch her performance HERE.

ABOUT ALESSIA CARA:
Since catapulting to stardom with quintessential loner anthem “Here” in 2015, the singer/songwriter has matured alongside her audience, capturing the highs and lows of adolescence and young adulthood with camera-like clarity. In many ways, Cara’s new era is a snapshot of an artist finally processing her meteoric rise in the music industry. The Grammy winner’s debut single, “Here,” peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and went on to sell three million copies. Her platinum-selling debut album, Know-It-All, delivered another smash hit with “Scars to Your Beautiful” and she memorably contributed “How Far I’ll Go” to the Moana soundtrack. She then added further platinum plaques to her collection with “Stay,” a dizzying club collaboration with Zedd, and an unforgettable feature on Logic’s “1-800-273-8255.” The Brampton, Ontario, native returned in 2018 with The Pains of Growing, which won a Juno Award for Best Album and Songwriter of the Year cemented Cara as one of her generation’s foremost singer/songwriters. In 2021, Alessia released In The Meantime, that featured hit singles “Best Days” and “Sweet Dream.” The album was met with critical acclaim from Pitchfork, Billboard, Rolling Stone, with The New York Times calling it “Incisive and introspective as ever. Cara continues to position herself as both pop star and therapist.” Her recent release Love & Hyperbole solidifies her evolution as a powerhouse vocalist, empathetic songwriter and force of nature.
