Troye Sivan’s fourth album, She’s the Best, examines the spaces between dancefloor peaks and emotional lows. The record is dedicated to the women in his life and to an elusive “him,” and it follows the sample-driven queer pop of Something to Give Each Other. Sivan loosens his established pop sound with larger samples, harsher vocal effects, and more dissonance.

Expanded Detail

She’s the Best is Troye Sivan’s fourth album, issued in 2026 by Interscope and classified as Pop/R&B. It follows Something to Give Each Other, a sample-based dance record that marked a breakthrough from his earlier, more ballad-oriented work.

The album is dedicated to women he loves and to an unidentified “him.” Its title-track video features Nicole Kidman, Sasha Colby, and a glamorous occasional DJ near the Morgan L stop. After co-headlining with Charli xcx, Sivan drew on the isolation that followed arena shows.

Context

Listeners navigating queer identity, nightlife, and loneliness may find resonance in Sivan’s contrast between communal dance spaces and private isolation. The album’s dedication to women and an unnamed male figure could broaden conversations about chosen family, intimacy, and the emotional costs of performance. Its harsher textures and dissonance may influence pop production trends, while fans and LGBTQ+ audiences could see their experiences reflected in mainstream pop.
