But then there was that undeniable kiss in July in San Francisco, the one that led her to realize that with him - only with him - she could drop “the mask of perfection,” as she put it. She and this guy had started off as friends, Cabello told the crowd gathered for an invite-only performance sponsored by Apple Music for a long time, she didn’t admit to herself how much she liked him. I’m still talking about my feelings.Onstage recently before a couple of hundred fans in a small studio in Silver Lake, Camila Cabello spoke in gushing, nothing-to-hide detail about how a very special relationship - the singer’s first taste of true love - had indelibly shaped the songs on her new album, “Romance.” This next round of music is going to be a bit more rhythmic, so you’ll be able to, like, move a little more to it. Add guitar licks here and there, add some piano chords. So, like, backgrounds, harmonies, ad libs, go in with the strings, go with the trumpet. They’re still in demo mode, and I just have to get the final touches on them. LJ: I just have to finish the songs right now. What can you hint about your next project? This time around, in the way that I see it, we’re starting here and we’re moving forward. It’s like an iconic little venue for me, just because growing up there, we used to go there all the time. I’m really excited to perform at the Ground at Club Space in Miami. It’s been interesting to figure out how to incorporate the current self with a bit of the past self so that people can still get a vibe and hear songs that they love from other iterations of myself. LJ: I’m still in the creative process, to be honest, but it’s going well. Can you talk about how that process has been going and what fans can expect? And now I know better.” I’ve learned to get more comfortable with failure because it’s the only way you actually make something great. Not in a way of, “Oh, fuck, I failed.” It’s more, “Oh, wow, that really taught me something. I’m sure there were a lot of lessons learned throughout. I think that the logistics of things and finances and all the fucking mechanisms that go into doing art as a business, as a career choice versus just something that you do for fun or a hobby were the things that have brought the most challenge to me out of the whole process. LJ: When it comes to challenges, the creativity has always flowed out of me. What was the most difficult thing about bringing it to life? You released this EP under your own record label, which means you’re going the independent route now. These songs were cohesively making sense with one another and made the most sense with what I actually wanted to be creating. But this isn’t necessarily for me or the sound that I’m curating.” It was something that came out of me but could work for something else. Some of it was like, “Okay, this is great. A lot of what I was writing-I mean, I’ve written a whole wide range of stuff-but it was like getting stuff out of my system. LJ: I think they told my story the most clearly and poetically. What made you pick these tracks out of the 50? Was it mostly rhythm and flow? Or was it to tell a certain story? How many songs did you have set before picking the track list for the EP? In a previous interview, you mentioned this EP is named Prelude because it’s a prelude to a full album. So it’s cool to be recognized for that and as myself. Although Fifth Harmony was a beautiful thing in its own right, I’m very different, personally, from what Fifth Harmony gave me. It’s cool to be acknowledged for the artist I am outside of what Fifth Harmony was. Lauren Jauregui: It is a stark difference. How does it feel to be known as just Lauren? Cosmopolitan: Like some newer fans, I became a fan of yours because of your solo stuff, especially when you released your first single, “Expectations,” back in 2018.
