    Something Beautiful is an absolute triumph that casts aside any qualifiers to make a strong bid for the best major pop album of 2025 so far.

    So while ‘Something Beautiful’ probably isn’t Cyrus’s most hit-packed album, it does feel like a fully realised artistic statement. This post-genre pop star has pulled off another pretty big swing.

    Something Beautiful is a taste of everything she’s done well without overcooking any singular concept. How the charts will take to such a record so allergic to categorization remains to be seen, but Miley Cyrus at her very best was well worth the wait.

    Miley’s commitment to new horizons can’t really be faulted, and ‘Something Beautiful’ does indeed add yet another string to the star’s already considerable musical bow.

    There’s a feeling that ‘Something Beautiful’ is searching for a unity that doesn’t quite coalesce, all while lacking some of the towering peaks of Miley’s more commercially-focussed work. A fascinating one-off, potentially; ‘Something Beautiful’ adds another layer to Miley Cyrus’ story.

    If the rest of the album steadfastly fails to make the listener vibrate at a different level – it’s all about as psychedelic as a baked potato – and you struggle to identify any kind of concept, it’s still all very well written and well made, a varied succession of good vehicles for Cyrus’s powerfully raspy voice.

    Something Beautiful has three decent tracks (fizzy dance song End Of the World, emotional ballad More to Lose and the elegiac Golden Burning Sun) and one absolute monster of a sad banger, Easy Lover, that stands out like a blazing beacon amidst a parade of trite ditties overstretched far beyond their natural life to encompass banal poetic codas.
