Inner Monologue Part 2 is the fifth extended play by American singer and songwriter Julia Michaels, released on June 28, 2019, through Republic Records.[1] The EP features eight songs, including a collaboration with singer and songwriter Role Model.

Background and release

[edit | edit source]

On June 6, 2019, Michaels announced the release date of the EP.[3][4] She released the EP on June 28, 2019. It serves as a follow-up to her EP Inner Monologue Part 1, released in January 2019.[5] Michaels views both parts as one cohesive and connected album. Originally Michaels intended for Inner Monologue Part 1 to be full of love songs and for Inner Monologue Part 2 to be full of break-up songs, to distinct where she was from where she is now.[6]
