Lady Gaga’s Next Album, ‘Mayhem,’ Due March 7, According to Teaser Billboards in New York and Las Vegas
Lady Gaga's seventh studio album, 'Mayhem,' will be released on March 7. The announcement was teased via billboards that appeared overnight.
Lady Gaga has revealed that her seventh studio album, apparently titled “Mayhem,” will be released on March 7. The announcement was teased via billboards that appeared overnight in New York and Las Vegas, according to multiple media reports. The countdown clock on the singer’s website, which appeared earlier this year, is set for 11 a.m. ET on Monday. Reps for the singer did not respond to Variety‘s requests for comment or confirmation on Monday morning.
Gaga released multiple versions of her upcoming album’s first single, “Disease,” as well as her Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 duet with Bruno Mars, “Die With a Smile,” which will be included in the new set.
In a Dec. 19 interview with the Los Angeles Times, Gaga said the LP was “full of [her] love of music” and was composed of “so many different genres, so many different styles, so many different dreams.”

“It leaps around genre in a way that’s almost corrupt,” she told the publication. “And it ends with love. That’s the answer to all the chaos in my life is that I find peace with love. Every song that I wrote, I just kept getting kind of swept away in these different dreams I was having about the past — almost like a recollection of all these bad decisions that I made in my life.”
She added, “But it ends in this very happy place.”
Outside of her work for “Joker: Folie à Deux,” this will be Gaga’s first full-length effort since 2020’s “Chromatica,” which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 upon its release. Lady Gaga previously hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with the “A Star Is Born” soundtrack (with Bradley Cooper, in 2018 and 2019), “Joanne” (in 2016), “Cheek to Cheek” (with Tony Bennett in 2014), “Artpop” (in 2013) and “Born This Way” (in 2011).
Gaga is set to perform on Jan. 30 for the FireAid benefit concert in Los Angeles to support victims of the disastrous wildfires that wreaked havoc across the region just weeks ago. She’s part of a lineup that also boasts Joni Mitchell, Stevie Nicks, Katy Perry, Sting, Billie Eilish and Finneas, the Red Hot Chilli Peppers and more.
