What is Next for Chappell Roan?
In her first performance of The Giver on Saturday Night Live, Chappell Roan went viral for the lyrics in her bridge. She sang “All you country boys saying you know how to treat a woman right. Well, only a woman knows how to treat a woman right.” Needless to say, this lines broke the internet.
However, in the released studio version, the bridge was reduced to a series of "na na na na"s and "She gets the job done." Initially, fans were outrages and confused by this. It was then revealed by Chappell Roan that, when she went on tour for her sophomore album, she plans to change the lyrics of the bridge during each show. This is exciting to fans as it is sure to be an engaging and popular aspect of her shows, much like Sabrina Carpenter's iconic Nonsense outros and the surprise song on Taylor Swift's Eras Tour which left fans guessing and engaged every night.
Given that the beat and tone of this country song is quite different to that Chappell Roan's previous pop songs, many fans speculated that her next album will lean more into the country genre. However, she has disproven this by saying in an interview with Rolling Stone that her next album will still be pop and will not be "entirely country".
"I have such a special place in my heart for country music... Right now I’m just making songs that make me feel happy and fun." ~ Chappell Roan
As for the next single from this upcoming album, there is no information thus far about when it will be released. However, fans predict that her unreleased song The Subway will be her next song to be released.
Conclusion
Overall, Chappell Roan's latest track The Giver has a charming country vibe with the singer's signature flirtatious lyrics. Although it may not be as catchy as her previous songs with similar meanings like HOT TO GO! and Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl, this song is nonetheless an entertaining addition to this pop star's discography.
The Giver plays with gender roles and country stereotypes in a fun, light-hearted manner that leaves us all excited for Chappell Roan's next album.
