According to the teaser, which the network also shared on YouTube, fans can expect to see an "intimate" look at the creation of every single song.

The singer made sure that the album should feel more authentic as possible. "I wanted to put everyone on their own journey to link the storyline," the Grammy winner said in July. "Each song was written to reflect the film's storytelling that gives the listener a chance to imagine their own imagery while listening to a new contemporary interpretation."
