I can’t say that about my last album, but this one I’m really proud about. I made this album, you know, clean and sober. “Something that really represents who I am, and I think the best way to do that - and the easiest way to do that, and the most authentic - is to do it clean and sober. “After going through even more stuff last year, I came out of treatment again, and I realized I really want to do this for myself, and I want to make the best album possible,” Lovato continued. That’s no secret to the world,” they said. The song is being released just months after Lovato left rehab in January, as reported by Entertainment Tonight, and they told “The Tonight Show” host Jimmy Fallon that they’re proud to say this album was written while they were completely sober. It also happens to be a deeply personal song inspired by Lovato’s history of drug addiction as well as their mental health struggles. The singer debuted “Skin of My Teeth,” the first single from the album, on the June 10 episode of “The Tonight Show,” and it’s a rock anthem unlike anything they’ve ever done before.
