After his much praised debut album 'Blue Neighborhood' released back in 2015, Troye Sivan the YouTube cover artist turned worldwide sensation, is back with his much anticipated sophomore album titled 'Bloom'. The 10 song album followed the 5 pre-released singles "My, My, My!", "The Good Side", "Bloom", "Dance To This" which featured fellow songstress Ariana Grande,and last but not least "Animal". 'Bloom' has been labeled as a more darker, sexier version of the singer as well as lots of lyrics relating to Sivan's experience being a very open member of the LGBT+ community. It literally is just listening to a young gay man's experiences. A lot of the material on 'Bloom' is more dancier with a bit of acoustic added into the mix. Even though Troye Sivan is a pop artist who's songs become radio played and mainstream does NOT mean his music sounds just like every other radio hit out there. Sivan is a bit different. With catchy beats, well thought out lyrics, his distinct vocals, his songs become mainstream for being different. Mixing pop with slight electronic, slight dance beats, Troye Sivan is changing the game for pop music. A lot of celebrities praised Troye Sivan on the release of his album, which is well deserved. If you are in need of a chill record to just listen to while driving, out for a walk or even just relaxing around the house, 'Bloom' is the album you need right now!
Getting into the more 'sexier' vibe of 'Bloom' when compared to his previous release of 'Blue Neighborhood', while listening to the songs "Bloom" and "Seventeen" you are started with Troye flirting with the male subject of the song when all of a sudden he talks about the things he desires from these men. Especially when you come to find out that "Seventeen" was written about Troye used a fake ID to go onto Grindr at the age of 17 and seek out older men. Sivan wrote 'Bloom' to demonstrate how love and sex can make you think you that's all you need in a specific moment to make you feel safe. With a duet with the equally talented Ariana Grande on "Dance To This", you can really tell how well their voices blend together. Both also releasing albums with similar connotations, both writing albums about the men they love.
Troye Sivan will be kicking off his 'Bloom' tour September 21st in Irving, Texas which will continue all the way through the US and Canada and continue until November 8th where the tour will conclude in Vancouver.
