Their second album, A Year Without Rain was released in 2010 and their third album, When the Sun Goes Down, in 2011. Gomez announced the band would take a hiatus while Gomez focused on her acting career.[4][5] In 2013, she confirmed that she would be releasing her solo debut album, as opposed to another album with her band.[6] The result was Stars Dance, released on July 19, 2013. Stars Dance is an album rooted stylistically in EDM and pop,[7][8] this later specifically showcased as electropop.[9][10]
Having spent seven years with Hollywood Records, Gomez signed a recording contract with Interscope Records in 2014.[11] To officially end her contract with Hollywood Records, Gomez released the compilation album For You (2014). Her second studio album, Revival was released on October 9, 2015. Revival is primarily a dance-pop and electropop album with R&B vibes,[12][13] which has been also described as "a heady mix of electronic dance music pop".[14] The album was met with a positive reaction from critics, who praised the album's production and lyrical content.[15][16][17] Her third studio album, Rare was released on January 10, 2020. Rare is a midtempo pop and dance-pop record, taking cues from electronic, latin pop and R&B styles.[18][19][20][21] Lyrically, the album explores themes of self-love, self-empowerment, self-acceptance, and self-worth.[22] Gomez released her first Spanish-language project, an extended play titled, Revelación was released on March 12, 2021. The album blends reggaeton, electropop, Latin pop, R&B and alternative R&B genres with urbano elements. Upon release, Revelación received acclaim from music critics, who highlighted its tasteful production, and praised Gomez's expansion of her artistry. The EP became her best-reviewed project on Metacritic.[23][24][25]
