Miley Cyrus has released her tenth studio album, 'Bass Persuades,' on September 18, 2026, through Atlantic Records, marking her first album promoted under the mononym Miley. The singer adopted the mononym Miley for her public and artistic identity on August 31, 2026, when she posted a photo teasing the new musical project. Discussing the upcoming project in July, Cyrus described the album as reflective of her relationship with her fiancé, Maxx Morando, while also exploring themes of self-love, explaining that the album is a "love story" with multiple layers, including a "romantic thread" running throughout it. The title track was released as the lead single on September 3, 2026, through Atlantic Records. The song is about Cyrus urging her fans to put down their phones and dance. The album features 10 tracks with guest appearances from Model/Actriz and Miike Snow's Andrew Wyatt. In announcing the album, Cyrus explained the title as encompassing "heart full, heartache, every part of life in between." The album follows her 2025 release, 'Something Beautiful.' Cyrus will also make a rare return to the stage with a two-night stint at Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. The album represents a continuation of Cyrus's creative evolution and musical reinvention, maintaining her status as one of pop music's most prolific and versatile artists on the global stage.
