More about Rina Sawayama’s new album, Hold the Girl

Earlier in September, Rina Sawayama released her second studio album, titled Hold The Girl, via Dirty Hit. The lead single from the album, titled This Hell, was released on May 18, 2022. Sawayama noted that she derived inspiration for the album from artists including Kelly Clarkson, the Corrs, Paramore, and Sugababes. She also said Taylor Swift's 2020 album, Folklore, influenced it.

Sawayama co-wrote This Hell with Paul Epworth and Lauren Aquilina. It is co-produced by Epworth and Clarence Clarity. Speaking about the lead single of the album, the artist wrote:

“Country music at its core to me represents comfort, brilliant storytelling and authentic expression of the writer's reality. I’ve been dreaming of working with Paul Epworth my entire career so I knew it was meant to be when we finished this song in a day. I put in as many iconic pop culture moments as I can, but the song is more than that."

The artist released her self-titled debut in 2017, which was followed by her debut album in 2020, which featured hit tracks including XS and Love Me 4 Me.
