Covering the sh*t you like since 1984.
Story by Tobias Hess / Photography by James Bee / Styling by Angelina Cantú / Makeup by Patrick Ta / Hair by Jesus Guerrero / Nails by Juan AlvearThe world has come to know Cabello as one thing: an eminently capable pop star who can craft ubiquitous hits without ruffling too many feathers. But with just a few cryptic Instagram posts and one album preview, it's become clear the days of simplicity are over.
While speaking, she reclines languidly in her bed against a wall of pillows adorned with silver Cs. Her newly platinum bangs partially cover her doe-eyed gaze. “Culture goes up and down. You're that girl one day and then you're trash the next day, so I don't really care about that,” she says. “There is no master plan.”
This sentiment might be surprising. With “Havana,” for example, Cabello assembled a team of nine fellow co-writers to hone a song that is among the most successful of the streaming era. The industry model — that is, one that involves great legions of writers, producers and general collaborators — has served her well on paper. But for this album, she was sure that she wanted to try something different.
The first time I heard the album was in Jasper Harris’ car. Harris has been my dearest friend since childhood, so when I came home to LA for the holidays, he was eager to show me what he’d been working on for the past year in secret.Harris works harder than anyone I have ever met, but I sensed within him a weariness over these past few years. There is a certain way pop music is done: a pace to its creation, an often set of narrow demands implied by the business minds behind it.
