The wait is officially over. Harry Styles just dropped some major news that has fans losing their minds across the globe.

On Thursday morning, the former One Direction star took to Instagram to reveal his fourth album announcement. The project is titled Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally and it’s hitting streaming platforms on March 6.

The album cover itself is giving off serious vibes. Picture this: Harry standing outside at dusk, rocking a fitted blue tee and jeans, slipping on his sunglasses while a glittering disco ball hangs above him against a backdrop of trees. Pretty iconic, right?

This marks Harry Styles’ first full-length release since his Grammy-winning Harry’s House dropped back in 2022. That album absolutely dominated the charts and took home the coveted Album of the Year award at the 2023 Grammys.

The buildup to this fourth album was nothing short of cinematic. Fans started piecing together clues earlier this month when mysterious billboards started popping up in cities worldwide. From New York to Madrid, São Paulo to Berlin, posters teased messages like “See you very soon” and hinted that something big was coming.

Harry also launched a cryptic website, “WeBelongTogether.co,” featuring a looped video of fans dancing in a crowd. The domain name became clear when he dropped a “Forever, Forever” video on New Year’s Day, ending with the phrase “We belong together.”

So what do we know about the music itself? The 12-track project is being executive produced by Kid Harpoon, who’s basically been Harry’s right-hand man throughout his solo career. Kid Harpoon worked on beloved tracks like “Watermelon Sugar,” “As It Was,” and “Sweet Creature” from Harry’s previous albums.

The album title definitely hints at something dance-floor ready. With references to both kissing and disco, fans are speculating this could mark a new sonic direction for the British popstar. Some eagle-eyed supporters have noticed Harry’s been spotted at Berlin’s famous Berghain nightclub recently, which might offer hints about the sound we can expect.

Harry’s been on quite the hiatus since wrapping up his massive Love On Tour in July 2023. That tour was absolutely massive, spanning 173 shows and grossing over $600 million. Since then, he’s apparently taken up marathon running, participating in races in Tokyo and Berlin.

The timing of this announcement feels perfect. It’s been nearly four years since Harry’s House, and fans have been patient. Really patient. When Harry posted the album cover on Instagram, the response was immediate. The post racked up over four million likes in just three hours, proving that the Styles fandom is as dedicated as ever.

Pre-orders are already live on Harry’s official website. Fans can snag the album on vinyl (including limited edition “Smoke Machine” silver and “Kiss” pink variants), CD, or cassette. There’s even a deluxe box set that includes a branded 35mm film camera and camera bag, which totally fits Harry’s vintage aesthetic.

Reports have also surfaced that Harry might be planning a Madison Square Garden residency later this year, though nothing’s been officially confirmed yet. If true, that would give fans a chance to hear these new tracks live in an intimate setting.

With Kid Harpoon at the helm once again, expectations are sky-high for this fourth album. Their creative partnership has produced some of the biggest hits in recent pop music history. “As It Was” alone spent 15 weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100.

The announcement comes at an emotional time too. This will be Harry’s first music release since the passing of his former One Direction bandmate Liam Payne in October 2024. Harry attended Payne’s funeral alongside Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, and Niall Horan.

Right now, the tracklist remains under wraps. Harry’s keeping things close to the chest about whether there will be any featured artists, though he’s famously avoided collaborations throughout his solo career so far.

What’s clear is that March 6 can’t come soon enough for Styles fans around the world. The disco ball is ready. The stage is set. And Harry Styles is about to remind everyone why he’s one of the biggest artists on the planet.
