Harry Styles: The Anticipated Return of Pop’s Global Superstar

Musical Hiatus and Future Projects

Harry Styles has maintained a notably low profile throughout 2025, choosing to skip awards season events and other high-profile gatherings. However, his influence in the music industry remains substantial, as evidenced by his hit single “As It Was” recently becoming the fastest song in Spotify history to reach 4 billion streams.

The Next Chapter: HS4

Work on his fourth studio album (HS4) has been long in the making, with Styles beginning to establish early ideas shortly after the release of Harry’s House in May 2022. Recent reports indicate he has been collaborating with longtime partners Kid Harpoon and Tyler Johnson, the duo behind his successful albums Fine Line and Harry’s House.

Career Achievements and Recent Activities

Styles has established himself as one of the world’s most successful musicians and cultural figures, with three critically acclaimed solo albums, multiple Grammy Awards, and a thriving acting career. His gender-fluid fashion choices and charismatic performances have earned him a devoted global fanbase.

Looking Ahead

While fans are eager for new music, industry insiders suggest the fourth record won’t arrive until 2027, with Columbia Records planning to align the release with the Glastonbury Festival, where Styles is expected to headline. Despite the wait, Styles’ future remains filled with exciting possibilities, from new music releases to future acting roles and continued success in the fashion industry.
