Demi Lovato is back in the mainstream music game, with the star’s first pop song in three years, “Fast,” released today (Aug. 1).
Over a club-ready, EDM-tinged beat, Lovato returns to the form of past Billboard Hot 100 hits such as “Cool for the Summer” and “Really Don’t Care” on “Fast,” singing, “I wanna go fast/ I wanna go hard/ I wanna go anywhere, anywhere you are.”
The track arrives after weeks of the musician teasing a return to pop music years after holding a “funeral” for her songs in the genre. Since 2022, Lovato has strictly released rock music, starting with 2022 album Holy Fvck and followed by Revamped, a compilation of the musician’s past pop hits reimagined as rock anthems.
According to a recent report from Rolling Stone, “Fast” is just the precursor for a full album of new pop music Lovato is preparing. The publication says that the vocalist is readying a “celebratory dance-pop” album informed by the singer’s romance with husband Jordan “Jutes” Lutes.

The publication also spoke to their producer on the upcoming project, Zhone, who said, “This album is about letting inhibitions go, and we had so much fun making this music!”
To promote her pop homecoming, Lovato also recently revisited another important piece of the past: The Bigg Chill, a.k.a. the frozen yogurt shop the Camp Rock alum previously visited in 2021 and made headlines for slamming as “toxic” because of its calorie-count displays. The singer apologized for slamming the store at the time, but now amends have truly been made with Lovato posting a video of their dessert run and writing, “love you bigg chill.”
