EILISH RECLAIMS APPLE MUSIC PRE-ADD RECORD

Ahead of her highly anticipated sophomore album, Happier Than Ever (Darkroom/Interscope), which drops Friday, 7/30, Billie Eilish has once again set the pre-add record at Apple Music.

Happier racked up more than 1,028,000 pre-adds, making it the most pre-added album in Apple Music’s history—surpassing The Weeknd’s After Hours, which previously claimed the title, and Eilish's debut album, WHEN WE ALL FALL ASLEEP, WHERE DO WE GO?, which set the original record.

Will Happier Than Ever break any other records its debut week?

Below, Eilish discusses the milestone and her excitement about the new album with Zane Lowe.
