Confident is the fifth studio album by American singer Demi Lovato. It was released on October 16, 2015, by Hollywood, Island and Safehouse Records. The album features guest appearances from Australian rapper Iggy Azalea and American rapper Sirah, while Lovato co-wrote most of the songs on the album and worked with writers and producers such as Max Martin, Ryan Tedder, Steve Mac, Rami and Stargate, among others.
The album has received positive reviews from critics who praised its themes. Its lead single, "Cool for the Summer", was released on July 1, 2015, peaking at number 11 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and was certified double platinum. The second single, "Confident", premiered on September 18, 2015, and peaked at number 21 on the Hot 100. The third and final single, "Stone Cold", peaked at number 2 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100. Following its release, the album debuted at number one in Canada, while reaching the top 10 in fifteen other countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States.
Confident has been nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 59th Grammy Awards.
On December 18, 2013, Lovato confirmed that she was working on her fifth album, stating "The sound just evolves into everything that I've been and everything that I want to become." She also said, "I've never been so sure of myself as an artist when it comes down to confidence, but not only personal things, but exactly what I want my sound to be and what I know I'm capable of and this album will give me the opportunity to show people what I can really do." In October 2014, Lovato's manager confirmed to Billboard that the singer had "done some songs, but certainly the majority of it will kick off next year", following the Demi World Tour.
