Album Description
Available in:
Feed the Beast is the debut studio album by German singer Kim Petras. It was released on 23 June 2023 through Amigo and Republic. A pop and dance album, Feed the Beast explores themes of love, heartbreak and hedonism, filled with sex-positive lyrics on many of its songs. It was preceded by the release of the lead single "Alone" and includes collaborations with Nicki Minaj, Banks and Sam Smith.
Upon its release, the record was met with mixed reviews, as many critics thought the songs were uninspired and disappointing compared to previous output from Petras. To promote the album, Petras will embark on the Feed the Beast World Tour.
Background and promotion
On 3 August 2022, after having alluded to the release of her forthcoming third studio record Problématique for a year at that time, Petras confirmed that the album release was halted, ultimately putting her in "limbo". However, she approved fans to listen to leaks. She later clarified that three tracks from the scrapped album would be on Feed the Beast. On 22 September 2022, Petras released the highly anticipated "Unholy" with English singer Sam Smith. The song went on to reach number one in various countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States, and eventually earned both artists a Grammy Award for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.
Petras then released the singles "If Jesus Was a Rockstar" in November 2022 and "Brrr" in January 2023. On 21 April 2023, the singer released "Alone" with rapper Nicki Minaj. The song proved more successful than its two previous singles, having charted in five countries. While all singles were expected to appear on the album, "Alone" was officially announced as the lead single.
On 17 February 2023, the singer stated that an album that she had been working on "for three years" was ready to be released the next summer, sharing her excitement for people to hear the songs. On 26 February, the album was nearly finished. On 15 May 2023, Petras announced the album on her social media. A corresponding album poster depicts a noir photo of a "medieval-looking sword propped up against a large stone". Petras also shared posts of medieval imagery. In anticipation of the album, the news was celebrated as part of a live performance on NBC's Citi Concert series.
Title and concept
"After that happened , my A&R Wendy Goldstein and I had a little meeting and she was like, ‘Well, this stuff happens. It’s life. Go and write more. Challenge yourself to the limit and go feed the beast.’ And that’s what I did, and so that’s how the title came along."
–Petras on her album title for WWD Magazine
The album's title came after Petras had a meeting with her A&R Wendy Goldstein, following the leak of her then-planned debut album Problématique. She encouraged the singer to "write more and feed the beast", which inspired her to name the album with that title after their conversation. Petras also described the album as her most personal, with "vulnerable, real moments ", being a departure from some of her previously released projects such as Turn Off the Light and Slut Pop, where she played characters to fit their musical narrative.
According to Amazon Music, the album's concept was based on a "modern-day spin on the classic Greek tale Andromeda" with lyrics about "sacrificing every part of yourself to your biggest passion in life". The overall aesthetic features a medieval setting surrounded by rocks, a sword and chains, while the cover was shot by American photographer Luke Gilford.
