Carly Rae Jepsen is reveling in her life’s next chapter on “After All,” the second single from her double album Day and Night<\/em> out Sept. 18.<\/p>\n “After All” will appear on the Day <\/em>side of her next record and was co-written by Jepsen and Kyle Shearer, and co-produced by Shearer and Nate Cyphert. The glistening song finds Jepsen musing on life as a new wife and mother in a series of tableaus; there’s terracotta tiles, late-night fireworks, and an apartment with the view of the ocean. The chillwave-esque track then explodes into a spritely breakdown which is sure to serve as a midsummer anthem.<\/p>\n More from Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Like previous single “On Wires,” Jepsen is pregnant in the Aerin Moreno-directed music video for “After All” (she and husband Cole M.G.N., who she met three years prior during a studio session, welcomed their first child in March). Throughout the glowy video, she twirls around a golden-hued house, and later, M.G.N. makes an appearance in the visual at a glitzy f\u00eate.<\/p>\n Day and Night\u00a0<\/em>is Jepsen’s eighth studio album following the 2023 b-sides collection\u00a0The Loveliest Time<\/em><\/a>. On Sept. 27, Jepsen will play a special sunset set at New York City’s All Things Go Festival, marking her first live performance of the year.<\/p>\n The Canadian pop star’s first double album features 24 tracks, with each LP comprising 12 songs corresponding to the\u00a0Day and Night<\/em>\u00a0theme. The musician worked on the double LP with collaborators and friends, including Tavish Crowe, Shearer, Cyphert, and M.G.N..\u00a0The track list has yet to be announced.<\/p>\n Jepsen began dropping hints of a new album in June. Keeping with the\u00a0Day and Night<\/em>\u00a0theme, her\u00a0official website<\/a>\u00a0played snippets of two different instrumentals (for 12 hours each) on June 1; one of the tracks being “After All.” Later, she began posting postcard-like images twice a day to her\u00a0social media accounts<\/a>\u00a0on June 11, captioned by a lyric, location, and timestamp.<\/p>\n While celebrating the 10-year anniversary of her beloved album\u00a0Emotion<\/em><\/a>\u00a0last summer, the Canadian pop star was announced as a co-writer of the stage musical adaptation of\u00a010 Things I Hate About You<\/em><\/a>\u00a0with Lena Dunham signed on to co-write the book.<\/p>\n Best of Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for RollingStone’s Newsletter<\/a>.
