GRAMMY-nominated pop powerhouse Reneé Rapp returns with her most daring project yet — her second studio album BITE ME, out now via Interscope Records.
The 12-track LP includes fan-favorites “Leave Me Alone,” “Mad,” and “Why Is She Still Here?” and ushers in a bold, no-holds-barred era of radical vulnerability, cathartic storytelling, and self-ownership. Rapp celebrated the release with a powerful performance of “Shy” on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, followed by a special album release show tonight in Brooklyn.
Following a string of viral teasers and celebrity cameos — from Paris Hilton to Monica Lewinsky — the BITE MEcampaign has set the internet ablaze. The hype hit a new high after Rapp debuted “Leave Me Alone” at the 2025 American Music Awards and “Mad” on The Today Show’s Summer Concert Series. The album marks her first full-length release since 2023’s Snow Angel, which earned the largest first-week sales for a female debut in the U.S. and launched her sold-out 'Snow Hard Feelings Tour.'
Now, Rapp is preparing to hit the road again for her biggest tour yet. The BITE ME North American arena tour kicks off September 23 at Red Rocks Amphitheatre, with stops at Madison Square Garden, TD Garden, The Kia Forum, and more. Tickets are on sale now. With BITE ME, Reneé Rapp cements her status as one of pop’s most fearless voices — and she’s just getting started.
