Madonna has officially announced that her next album will be a sequel to 2005's Confessions On A Dancefloor, the club-focused record that produced hits like Sorry and the Abba-sampling Hung Up.

The star has been teasing the plan since 2023, and on Monday she cleared her Instagram and changed her biography to one of Hung Up's lyrics: "Time goes by so slowly."

On Wednesday, she confirmed the release of Confessions II, with a release date of 3 July.

Madonna also unveiled the first taste via a 60-second video for the opening track, I Feel So Free. Set to a throbbing synth bassline, the song teases fans by interpolating a line from her 1980s classic Into The Groove: "Out here on the dance floor, I feel so free."

The Confessions follow-up will be Madonna's first album since 2019's Madame X, and her 15th overall.
