She shares her first full-length project alongside a video for her single ‘Times Like These’
Addison Rae‘s debut album Addison is here. With her first full-length project, she’s also releasing the video for her latest single “Times Like These.”
Rae’s Addison comes a year since she first began teasing new music. Last June, she posted a video of her underwater as the then-unreleased track “Aquamarine” played over it. Lead single “Diet Pepsi” was dropped in August, with “Aquamarine” officially arriving a couple months later. Ahead of the album, she unveiled five total songs off the LP, all with their own videos.
“Times Like These” is the latest in her stream of singles and arrives with a dance-heavy new video. The visual was directed by photographer Ethan James Green.
Rae’s debut album was written and produced by Rae with Elvira Anderfjärd and Luka Kloser, both of whom are Max Martin’s protégées. “We were both shocked [that] her taste leaned very left and underground at times,” Kloser told Rolling Stone in Rae’s cover story earlier this year.

Addison arrives nearly four years after Rae first tried to make the jump from TikTok stardom to pop. She released her first single “Obsessed” in 2021, which ended up not taking off as she hoped. She ended up scrapping her first EP, but after the songs leaked and generated buzz online, she put them out in 2023.
Rae has since signed to Columbia Records. Before unveiling her solo songs, she further cemented more Main Pop Girl points by appearing on a remix of Charli XCX’s “Von Dutch.” She has performed the song live with XCX at a Brat release show in Los Angeles as well as the UK star’s 2025 Coachella set.
