Meghan Trainor has announced her fourth studio album, 'Takin' It Back'.
Due out on October 21 via RCA Records, the follow-up to 2020's 'Treat Myself' and 'A Very Trainor Christmas' will feature collaborations with Natti Natasha, Arturo Sandoval, and Teddy Swims.
The latter appears on the record's lead single, Bad For Me, a heartfelt pop ballad which reflects on a toxic relationship. Trainer commented:
"My dad actually sent me Teddy's video for Broke, and I’ve been so obsessed with him ever since. It’s a dream to record with someone who has that good of a voice, and he’s the sweetest guy ever. The song is a true story for me. It’s about how I stood up for myself and took a step back from a relationship that was hurting me more than anything. It’s hard to do, but I needed to in order to feel better."
About the record, she added: "I tried to do the doo-wop feel I had at the beginning of my career, but the 2022 version of it. This is from the new Meghan who is a wife and mom with a baby. This is from me right now. I decided to give the people what they want, but with my spices added to it. I wanted to make my Title 2.0."
