Selena Gomez has officially announced her new collaborative album, I Said I Love You First, created with her fiancé, Benny Blanco. This marks her highly anticipated return to music after her 2020 album Rare. The album is set to release on March 21, 2025, under SMG Music/Friends Keep Secrets/Interscope Records.
According to Gomez and Blanco, this album serves as a personal reflection of their relationship. It captures different phases of their journey—from their early days together to their engagement and shared future. The couple described the project as an organic creation that evolved naturally from their connection, both musically and personally.
The lead single from the album, Scared of Loving You, has already been released. This heartfelt, guitar-driven ballad comes with an intimate music video featuring the couple in a relaxed morning setting. Fans have praised its raw emotion and personal touch.
While Gomez and Blanco have collaborated before, I Said I Love You First is their first full-length project together. Gomez’s deeply emotional songwriting, combined with Blanco’s expert production, promises a unique and immersive listening experience. The album is expected to blend Gomez’s signature vocals with Blanco’s distinct style, making it a standout release in 2025.
