Background and development

[edit]

In 2025, Max released her third studio album, Don't Click Play,[1] and it failed to chart on the US Billboard 200 chart.[2] In support of the album, she planned the accompanying tour, Don't Click Play Tour; however, she canceled it later, wanting to refine it.[3]

On February 11, Max suddenly cleared her Instagram page and posted a portrait of Elizabeth II, blowing pink-colored bubble gum againt red background, stating: "God save the queen".[4] Two days later, she uploaded a teaser of then-upcoming single, with the caption stating: "So it begins".[5] She posted another teaser video of the song with "Popmaxxing" caption on February 18, and that she left her previous record label, Atlantic Records.[6] It was revealed that she had signed a record deal with American record label, Artist Partner Group.[7] A day before of its release, Max announced a cover artwork, title and release date of "Kill It Queen".[8][9] Serving as the first single from her upcoming fourth studio album,[7] it marks her first release since 2026 and first as an independent artist.[4]

Composition

[edit]

I'm telling my story my way. I'm doing things differently and it feels good. I feel empowered, reinvigorated, and I think you can hear it in this single. "Kill It Queen" is for anyone who wants to feel unstoppable.

— Ava Max, ABC Audio[10]

Produced by Arthur Besna and Sam Martin,[7] "Kill It Queen" is a pop song, featuring dance-pop elements along with "punchy synths and a glossy electropop backbone".[11] Variety magazine described the track as a "self-empowerment anthem in a classic Max mold, a forceful pop tune that leans even harder into the towering sound of past singles".[7]
