So Good. I hate coming up with titles for things because it's hard - you're supposed to take all of the songs and kinda summarise it in one word and I just thought So Good was easy because the album is so good.
―Zara during an interview


So Good is the second studio album by Swedish singer and songwriter Zara Larsson, and her first released internationally. It was released on 17 March 2017, through Epic Records and TEN Music Group. The album was originally scheduled to be released in January 2017, however it was delayed for unknown reasons other than her claim that changes were made to many of the songs. She embarked on the So Good World Tour to promote the album.

Background[]

The album features mainly pop songs but there are some rhythmic songs, some dance songs, some ballads.[1]

During an interview with Idolator, Larsson confirmed she worked with Dr. Luke. During an interview with Billboard, Larsson confirmed she worked with Max Martin's team on the project, saying: "I worked with so many. Me and MNEK have done a lot of other songs. Me and the Max Martin team. Not Max Martin himself, but hopefully next time. The team is really good. The Monsters & Strangerz, I love them so much. And just a lot of super talented people—R. City, Justin Tranter, so many good people. Whoever you meet, they're like, 'I just wrote a No. 1 for this or that.' Everyone has something to brag about, which is what I would do if I wrote that good songs."\ Larsson also worked with Stargate and Charlie Puth. During an interview with Digital Spy, Zara confirmed that every song on the album was written and produced by a different production team.
