History

History is the ninth studio album by American singer-songwriter Frosty. It is a double album, with the first disc containing some of Frosty's hits from 2031-2041, while the second disc contains new material recorded between August-November 2041.
The album was a commercial success, peaking at number one in 26 countries, which is one less than his previous album, Dance (2040). However, the album received mostly mixed reviews from critics, many of whom criticized the lyrical content of the album, as well as the production. Most critics, however, applauded the slower tracks on the album.
== Background ==
On June 2, 2041, Frosty revealed that he had been writing songs while on the A Cold World Tour, stating that he had been influenced by the current political climate in the United States. On August 3, 2041, Frosty revealed that he was in the studio recording his ninth album. On September 5, he revealed that he had recorded 10 songs for the album already. He confirmed later that day that the album would likely be released in spring 2042.
On December 3, 2041, Frosty revealed via Instagram Live that he planned on releasing a greatest hits album in 2042 in order to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his career. Later that month, he revealed that he plans on releasing a double album the following year, with one disc featuring his greatest hits and the other disc featuring entirely new song. 
== Release ==
On January 5, 2042, Frosty revealed that he had finished recording his ninth album in November 2041. The same day, he revealed the name of the album would be 'History', and put the album for pre-save on streaming platforms, revealing the release date as May 25, 2042. However, two weeks later, the released date was postponed to July 13, 2042, for unknown reasons. It was speculated that the album's release date was postponed due to backlash from the lead single, "History". However, those speculations have not been confirmed by Frosty nor his team.
== Promotion and singles ==
History was released as the first single from the album on December 22, 2041. A musical departure from Frosty's previous work, History combines R&B and electronic music in a song that describes how history repeats itself. The music video, released on January 12, 2042, was extremely political in nature, and led to it being removed from YouTube after five days. It earned 34 million views within its first 24 hours, but also received a great amount of dislikes.
On February 9, 2042, Not Alone was released as the second official single from the album. 
The third single from the album, Lost in Bucharest, was released on April 13, 2042. 
=== Tour ===
On March 10, 2042, Frosty revealed that he will be '100% for sure' touring for the album in 2043, but that he was waiting for the album's release to start planning the tour.
