MIKA has always treated pop like a wide-open canvas, and with Hyperlove, he leans fully into color, emotion, and instinct. The multi-platinum, BRIT Award-winning, Grammy-nominated artist returns with his seventh studio album sounding energized, fearless, and sharply focused on what he does best: turning vulnerability into something euphoric.

Produced by MIKA alongside Nick Littlemore of Empire of the Sun, with additional production from Peter Mayes of PNAU, Hyperlove thrives on contrast. The songs move between theatrical highs and intimate moments, balancing glittering melodies with emotional clarity. It’s pop that reaches outward while staying grounded in personal truth, a combination MIKA has spent his career refining.

Written almost entirely by MIKA, the album reflects a songwriter fully in control of his voice and vision. Select collaborations bring added texture, including work with Littlemore, Renaud Rebillaud, Matthieu Jomphe, and Amy Wadge, whose melodic sensibility helps sharpen the record’s emotional edge without diluting its personality.

One of the album’s most unexpected touches comes from legendary filmmaker John Waters, whose narration adds a surreal, cinematic dimension. His presence doesn’t feel ornamental. Instead, it deepens the world MIKA builds across the album, blurring the line between pop record and immersive experience.

Throughout Hyperlove, MIKA pushes forward without chasing trends or nostalgia. The record celebrates emotion in all its messiness and joy, embracing identity, imagination, and connection with a sense of freedom that feels intentional rather than overstated. It’s a reminder that pop can still feel expressive, personal, and expansive when guided by an artist who trusts his instincts.

With Hyperlove, MIKA once again proves that his version of pop doesn’t need to fit inside anyone else’s framework. It moves on feeling, melody, and conviction — bright, human, and unmistakably his.
