Fifth Harmony Delays Release of “7/27” by a Week

Camila Cabello, Ally Brooke Hernandez and Lauren Jauregui are making you wait a week…

The Latina singers and their fellow Fifth Harmony members took to Twitter on Friday to announce that their forthcoming album 7/27 will now be released on May 27, one week later than originally planned.

“The number 27, as you guys have already probably figured out, is quite important to us. It means a lot of different things,” Jauregui says in the video. “And so to keep cohesive with the theme of 27, we have decided to push it one week to the 27th. One week will be nothing.”

Fifth Harmony released their debut album Reflection in 2015, which debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 chart.

The all-girl group’s latest single, “Work From Home,” the first single from 7/27, is Fifth Harmony’s first song to reach the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The song, the debut single from the all-girl group’s upcoming album 7/27, moved up 12-10 on the chart dated April 16 

With the advance, the quintet passes its prior best rank, first set when “Worth It,” featuring Kid Ink, reached No. 12 last August.

The group’s new single jumps 6-4 on Digital Songs (89,000, up 34 percent); 8-5 on Streaming Songs (14.4 million, up 20 percent); and 22-17 on Radio Songs (49 million, up 22 percent). The track, already a No. 1 on the Billboard + Twitter Trending 140, previews 5H‘s upcoming album 7/27, a nod to the date (in 2012) that the act formed on Fox’s The X Factor. The set arrives May 20 and follows the group’s debut full-length, 2015’s Reflection.

“Work From Home” additionally flies the flag for girl groups, becoming the first Hot 100 top 10 by a girl group this decade. The last such hit? The Pussycat Dolls‘ “When I Grow Up,” which became the act’s fourth and final top 10, reaching No. 9 back in July-August 2008.
