On October 25th, Rex Orange County released his new album “Pony.”

Alex O’Connor released his first project as Rex Orange County in 2015. His sound appealed not only his fans but also Tyler, the Creator, who recruited the British singer and songwriter for his 2017 album Flower Boy.

After meeting Tyler, he made another album, Apricot Princess, so that people who learned about him from Flower Boy would have something to listen to.

Last week, he released “Pony,” his first album for Sony and the third in Rex’s career. In this new album he sings air being young and in love, about getting getting older but yet not old enough, and about getting stressed out.
