The release will also help raise funds for COVID-19 relief.

Selena Gomez has dropped the deluxe edition of her new Rare album, featuring three previously-unreleased tracks, today (April 9).

“Boyfriend,” “She” and “Souvenir”  all appear on the beefed-up version.

“Many of you know how excited I have been to release a song called ‘Boyfriend,’” the singer, 27, previously said in a letter to fans about the bonus tracks. “It’s a lighthearted song about falling down and getting back up time and time again in love, but also knowing that you don’t need anyone other than yourself to be happy. We wrote it long before our current crisis, but in the context of today, I want to be clear that a boyfriend is nowhere near the top of my list of priorities. Just like the rest of the world, I’m praying for safety, unity and recovery during this pandemic.”

Because of her concern, Gomez said she’s personally donating to the Plus1 relief fund, as well as $1 from every order of the album on her official store to the fund.

The singer earned her third No. 1 album on the Streets Talkin 200 with Rare, which was released on Jan. 10 Interscope Records and kicked off with 112,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. for the week ending Jan. 16, according to Nielsen Music.

Gomez also recently appeared on Miley Cyrus’ Bright Minded Instagram series, where she discussed her bipolar diagnosis for the first time in a candid chat about mental health.

“Recently, I went to one of the best mental hospitals in… America, McClean Hospital, and I discussed that after years of going through a lot of different things, I realized that I was bipolar,” Gomez told Cyrus. “And so when I got to know more information, it actually helps me. It doesn’t scare me once I know it.”
