The ninth album to come from Miley Cyrus, ‘Something Beautiful’ is a concept album centred around the theme of healing.  

The popstar says it’s “an attempt to medicate somewhat of a sick culture through music”, and when discussing the inspiration behind the music, Cyrus said "the nastiest times of our life do have a point of beauty. They are the shadow, they are the charcoal, they are the shading. You can’t have a painting without highlights and contrast." 

An accompanying musical film of the same name is releasing in early June. 

Estelle Clifford joined Francesca Rudkin to give her thoughts on the album.
