Rachel Chinouriri prepares to release her second album

Rachel Chinouriri’s second album is due Oct.

16 through Parlophone.

The British-Zimbabwean singer’s new record, I Think I Spoke Too Soon, follows her 2024 debut, What a Devastating Turn of Events.

The new album moves toward a broader, more energetic sound, drawing on pop, rock and electronic music.

Chinouriri says she has grown more confident and no longer feels she needs to over-explain her music.

She has also gained wider pop opportunities, including performing at Olivia Rodrigo’s Daisy Chain Fields festival and supporting Gracie Abrams on an arena tour.

Earlier critics’ R&B labels left her feeling mislabelled because of her race, making the album’s varied sound part of a wider effort to define her own music.

The album’s release on Oct.

16 is the next step in that career momentum.
