Sudan is back in full force with The BPM. I actually heard the first single, DEAD by happy accident – when Chanel used it on their Chanel Fall-Winter 2025/26 Haute Couture runway. This album, which earned an impressive 8.4 on Pitchfork, if you care, is even more sure-footed than its predecessors. I dare you to listen to it without dancing. Sudan emerges fully formed: assertive, frank, and more self reflective than ever, but she’s also looser, funnier. But; this should come as no surprise, she’s said it herself, she’s “deep and insightful and also fucking silly”. Even more importantly, Sudan doesn’t actually care if you like her – or her music. She wants to make you feel something.
