Resolution criteria
This market resolves YES if Addison Rae releases a new studio album at any point during the calendar year 2026. The album must be officially released through a major or independent label and be available on major streaming platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, etc.) and/or physical retailers. Her debut album "Addison" was released on June 6, 2025, so any subsequent full-length studio album released in 2026 would count. The market resolves NO if no new studio album is released by December 31, 2026.
Background
Addison is Addison Rae's debut studio album, released on June 6, 2025, through Columbia Records. The album debuted at number one on the New Zealand Albums Chart and reached the top ten in multiple countries including the United States. The album earned Rae her first Grammy Award nomination at the 68th annual ceremony, for Best New Artist.
Considerations
Listings on Rae's online store describe Addison as "the first & last album by Addison Rae", suggesting she may not release another album under that name. However, in an interview with Elle, Rae said "I feel like I've surpassed Addison Rae ... It's just Addison now," indicating a potential shift in her artistic identity that could affect future releases.
