Young Forever is the debut studio album by American singer Nessa Barrett. The album was released on October 14, 2022, with the extended deluxe being released a month later on November 18, 2022.[1]

Touring

[edit]

In 2022, Barrett performed her first headlining tour dubbed the "Young Forever Tour".[2]

Critical reception

[edit]

Caitlin Conmy of The Bubble indicated that the work "presents a powerful commentary on mental health, in particular borderline personality disorder (BPD) which Nessa has openly spoken about struggling with".[1]

Shannon Shumaker of Prelude Press stated that "Comprised of thirteen confessional, personal tracks, young forever finds the twenty year-old looking inward and dissecting the music scene while she balances growing up while being thrust into stardom".[3]
