In a press statement, Rodrigo expressed that GUTS will focus on “growing pains” and the journey of self-discovery she’s currently navigating.“I feel like I grew 10 years between the ages of 18 and 20 — it was such an intense period of awkwardness and change,” she continued. “I think that’s all just a natural part of growth, and hopefully the album reflects that.”
