Beabadoobee’s Third Album ‘This Is How Tomorrow Moves’: A Folk-Pop Evolution with Rick Rubin’s Touch
Bea Kristi’s, Beabadoobee, third album, This Is How Tomorrow Moves, co-produced by the legendary Rick Rubin, marks a significant shift in her musical journey. Departing from the grungy flair of her debut Fake It Flowers and the whimsical charm of Beatopia, Kristi embraces a more subdued, acoustic palette, crafting a collection that feels like a poignant reflection of early adulthood.
Listening to Beabadoobee’s evolving sound is like revisiting the golden days of ’00s radio. Her 2020 debut channeled the raw, unfiltered energy of Alanis Morissette, while 2022’s Beatopia sparkled with the nostalgic, pop-infused essence of Hilary Duff. Now, with This Is How Tomorrow Moves, Kristi leans into a more introspective, folk-pop style, reminiscent of Suzanne Vega’s intimate coffee shop musings.
This album stands out not only for its acoustic warmth but also for its mature exploration of folk-pop. Rubin’s influence is evident, guiding Kristi towards a sound that balances her signature sweetness with a newfound depth. The result is a record that feels both familiar and refreshingly new, capturing the complexities of growing up with a subtle, yet powerful grace. Check it out below:
