In an interview with Sam Thompson for Hits UK, Hill revealed that her second album will be released in 2024. She said: “It's back to my roots really. There's lots of proper club records on there which I'm really excited about. I've been back in writing more drum and bass as well. I actually think I've written one of the best drum and bass records I've written since Afterglow, which I'm really excited about.

“I wrote it with Chase & Status as well, so that's really exciting. There should be new music out quite a lot this year. I just want to see how this next year goes, you know, I've got to go out to America and try and break America, and I've got to really plant my feet.”
