Noah Cyrus has just announced her highly-anticipated debut album called The Hardest Part, which is slated to release on July 15th.

To kick off the excitement, the Grammy-nominated artist revealed a dramatic music video for her new, country-inspired single “I Burned LA Down.”

“Living in California, you’re constantly living with this dread of wildfire season. At the time, I was reeling from my breakup, and [the 2021 Caldor fire] was dominating the news,” Cyrus said of the song’s inspiration in a press release. “All this internal, emotional pain I was feeling was intertwined with the anxiety around this out-of-control fire and climate change in general.”

The young singer anchored herself in her Nashville roots for the track while bringing in her love of California for a contemporary sound. In terms of lyrics, Cyrus explained not holding back.

“The song took shape around the idea that the only way my ex could comprehend the scale of my emotions was if I became this agent of chaos and set the entire city on fire,” shared the musician. “That idea of your internal struggle manifesting itself in the real world and affecting your surroundings is a big theme of the record, and that song feels so much bigger than anything I’ve written before. It’s the perfect introduction to the album.”
