“Bass Persuades” blends retro-inspired synths with an infectious dance-pop rhythm as Miley explores the ways technology keeps us constantly connected to our screens. The track ultimately encourages listeners to step away from the digital noise, embrace the present and simply let the music take over.

Meanwhile, Miley recently sparked major buzz after dropping her last name from her social media accounts and presenting herself simply as ‘Miley,’ signalling a new chapter ahead of her 10th studio album. The ‘Hannah Montana’ star has not publicly explained the reason behind the change.

As per E! News, Miley had previously spoken about a difficult period following her parents’ 2022 divorce, noting that family members stopped speaking to one another for a time due to divided loyalties. By mid-2025 and into 2026, Miley shared that she and her relatives had worked to rebuild communication, mend bridges, and move past those challenges.

However, according to Page Six, sources clarified that dropping her last name is unrelated to past family tensions and is instead a career move. (ANI)
