Music Minute - Lily Rose: Of Course I Do

 

Trailblazing singer-songwriter” (Billboard) Lily Rose shares a slow-burning confessional with “Of Course I Do,” out now. Written by Rose alongside Paul DiGiovanni, Andy Albert and Emily Weisband, the song captures the kind of heartbreak that lingers longer after the relationship ends. It marks the final release ahead of her highly-anticipated 13-track album, I Know What I Want due Oct. 3.
 
 
“We wrote this song back in 2022, and it's stuck with me ever since I walked out of the writing room,” shares Rose. “It captures that whirlwind feeling of falling fast for someone, only to end up as strangers. That kind of heartbreak hits everyone in different ways and I think everyone can relate to it in some way. Production-wise, it's one of the most dynamic and emotionally layered tracks we've ever brought to life.”

The song joins previous standout 2025 releases “End Like This,” “Seein' Blue,” “Let You Know When I Get There” and title track “I Know What I Want,” praised by Country Now for showcasing her “signature country twang seeping through her vocals.”
 
The forthcoming album has been nearly five years in the making, with Rose writing through what she describes as “the spectrum of peaks and valleys.” Produced by longtime collaborator Paul DiGiovanni, I Know What I Want reflects the growth and clarity she's found along the way. “Through these years, I have known what I want but have been navigating how to get there,” she shares. “And I feel like I finally made it.” The new record follows her 2024 EP Runnin' Outta Time and 2021 debut Stronger Than I Am, capturing a new level of confidence and perspective in her sound.
 
Rose will be taking her new music on the road this weekend to support Jordan Davis before embarking on her 17-stop headlining I Know What I Want Tour, bringing her signature “deep, soulful voice and innovative sound” (COWGIRL Magazine) to fans across the country. The run kicks off September 11 in Boston and will travel through major markets including New York City, Washington, D.C., Charlotte and her hometown of Atlanta.

Named an artist to watch by CMT, MusicRow and Amazon, the GLAAD Outstanding Breakthrough Music Artist and ACM nominee continues to carve a path uniquely her own. For dates and more information, visit lilyrosemusic.net and keep up with her on InstagramTikTok and YouTube.

ABOUT LILY ROSE:
Lily Rose has never been one to second-guess herself. After her breakout  2020 viral hit “Villain” was released, the Atlanta native went from local favorite to national name practically overnight – – landing a record deal, joining tours with Sam Hunt, Luke Bryan and Shania Twain, national TV performances and racking up accolades including an ACM Best New Female Artist nomination and GLAAD's Outstanding Breakthrough Artist Award. But even with the momentum, Lily was still searching – not for success, but for clarity.
 
That clarity defines her next chapter in I Know What I Want, her long-awaited full-length debut arriving October 3. Capturing a new era of creative freedom and blending country, pop and hip-hop influences, Lily is stepping fully into a sound that's unmistakably her own. Named an artist to watch by CMT, MusicRow, Amazon and more, she continues to carve out a path rooted in bold storytelling, powerful vocals, dynamic stage presence and a deep connection to a rapidly growing fanbase who see themselves in her songs.
