Camila Cabello Announces Song ‘Godspeed’ With Pointed Breakup Lyric
Cabello will continue her C, XOXO era with the new single
Camila Cabello isn’t ready to say goodbye to the C, XOXO era just yet, although the lyrics to her new song are aimed at someone she’d rather leave behind. On Friday, the pop star announced that she’ll follow her fourth album with single “Godspeed” on Sept. 6.
“I wish you well, but far away from me,” she captioned a video post announcing the upcoming track. The moody clip sees the singer inside a dark pool at night while wearing a sparkly silver dress.
“It’s time,” commented her producer Jasper Harris.
The timing for the single comes after fans have created speculation that Sabrina Carpenter aimed some lyrics from Short ‘n Sweet toward Cabello and both women’s relationships with Shawn Mendes. Fans drew parallels between Cabello’s C, XOXO lyrics, including “If she’s so amazing, why are you on this side of town?/If you like her so much, what are you here trying to find out?” in “June Gloom” and Carpenter’s lines about an ex in “Taste” and “Coincidence.”
Cabello released her fourth album C, XOXO in June, featuring “Hot Uptown” with Drake, “He Knows” with Lil Nas X, and single “I Luv It.”
“It doesn’t quite establish Cabello as a ‘weirdo,’ but its neon-hued chaos does indicate that she’s been allowed to run with her ideas more fully,” read a Rolling Stone review of the LP.
The new song will arrive in time for Cabello’s performance at the MTV VMAs the following week, where she’s nominated for Best Pop category.
