Finally, the day has arrived to listen to the highly anticipated second studio album from the talented Olivia Rodrigo. However, it generated more comments about its duration, 39 minutes, than it took for the album to be released on digital platforms.
And for many, the album's duration is too short; in fact, some have even referred to it as an EP rather than a full album. And although we would have also liked Olivia Rodrigo's second album to be longer, it's worth noting that 39 minutes is not entirely off-base. In fact, it's the perfect length to market an album on vinyl, not to mention that "short" tracks can work even better on TikTok, a social media platform that has taken the place radio once had in promoting new musical hits in previous years.
It is worth noting that in this new trend, the Jonas Brothers, Big Time Rush, and Sam Smith have also joined, whose latest albums have a similar duration to Olivia Rodrigo's new production. What do you think about it? Do you like this trend or do you prefer albums that are longer than an hour?
