The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess is one of the most culturally significant debut albums of the decade. Released in 2023, Chappell Roan's first full-length record announced an artist with a fully realized world: bold pop songwriting, queer identity at its center, and a theatricality that felt both completely original and immediately iconic. Written by Roan alongside Dan Nigro, who produced Olivia Rodrigo's SOUR, the album blends glam pop, synth-driven hooks, and unflinching personal storytelling into a record that has only grown in cultural weight since its release.
Roan's 2025 Grammy win for Best New Artist confirmed what the record had already established: this is an artist and an album that will be studied and collected for decades.
