Martin Garrix announces his debut pop album, “MARTY,” featuring collaborations with Madonna, U2, and Ed Sheeran, alongside additional artists. The album is described as Garrix’s shift from DJ booth to microphone, with the sources also noting that Garrix contributes vocals on the record.
Rolling Stone frames the project as a long-gestating effort, describing it as 13 years in the making and identifying several collaborators credited for helping shape the album. Billboard similarly highlights the featured names and includes the release timing “here’s when it arrives,” presenting “MARTY” as a high-profile pop debut. Together, the coverage emphasizes major pop and rock partnerships and Garrix’s increased role as a singing performer rather than only a dance music producer.
