Melanie Martinez unveiled her fourth studio album, HADES, on March 27, offering a collection of 18 tracks that serve as social commentary on contemporary society. Martinez described the album as a "cracked mirror," reflecting the world we currently inhabit rather than a futuristic dystopia.
The release follows her 2023 album, Portals, which achieved significant chart success, reaching No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and topping Australia's ARIA Chart. HADES includes lead single "POSSESSION" and followup "Disney Princess."
Martinez, who first gained attention on The Voice in 2012, has amassed over 30 billion career streams and 62 million followers across platforms. Her earlier work, including the 2015 debut Cry Baby, also found commercial success, leading to ventures in perfume and merchandise.
The artist is celebrating HADES with sold-out listening parties and a series of special performances. These include a show at New York's United Palace, a stop in Mexico City, and an exclusive performance at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles on April 8.
