Debuting on Friday (Mar. 6), <em>Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.<\/em> marks the follow-up to Styles\u2019 Grammy-winning 2022 blockbuster <em>Harry\u2019s House<\/em> and serves as something of a pivot, taking him further into club and indie-dance territory than ever before, as the former boy-band breakout takes stock of his life and what\u2019s important to him as he gets deeper into his 30s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWith this\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/t\/rollout-report-card\/\">Rollout Report Card<\/a>\u00a0episode, host Andrew Unterberger is joined by\u00a0<em>Billboard<\/em>\u00a0staffers Danielle Pascual and Hannah Dailey as we look at everything surrounding\u00a0<em>Kiss All the Time<\/em>\u00a0\u2014 both in the four years that separated it and\u00a0<em>Harry\u2019s House<\/em>, and now the two months since its actual announcement. We attempt to grade all aspects of the rollout, the narrative that Harry established for his new era, and whether or not the album and its singles actually lived up to their billing. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAlong the way, we answer all the most important questions about the last month or two of Harry\u2019s return: Should we abbreviate <em>Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.<\/em> to <em>KATTDO<\/em> or <em>Kissco<\/em>? How do we feel the album art and title match the actual album? Did we find the BRITs performance of \u201cAperture\u201d fun or cringey? Is it enough already with \u201cEverybody Wants to Rule the World\u201d? What\u2019s the deal with that photo of him with the giant spoon? Is this all the prelude for Styles\u2019 upcoming tour-not-quite-tour? And perhaps most importantly: Do we really understand what any of these songs are actually about just from the lyrics?<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"pmc-protected-embed-1\" class=\"pmc-protected-embed\" width=\"100%\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/playlist.megaphone.fm\/?e=PMC6935622171\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"embed-youtube\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Harry Styles' 'Kiss All the Time.
