Singles
The album's first single "For You", a duet performed by Liam Payne and Rita Ora was released on January 5, 2018,[3] and its music video was unveiled three weeks later. The second single "Capital Letters" performed by Hailee Steinfeld and BloodPop was released on January 12.[4] The third single "Heaven", performed by Julia Michaels was released on January 26.[5]
Critical reception
Jon Pareles of The New York Times wrote "throughout the album, despite skillful songs from Ms. Michaels and Sia, there's a sense of obligations being met, bases being touched. It's the bane of most sequels, and the songs in Fifty Shades Freed can't escape it."[6] The first three singles from the album were selected as one of the best songs from the film's franchise, according to Billboard critic Nina Braca.[7]
Commercial performance
Unlike its predecessors, the soundtrack to Freed was moderately successful; it sold nearly 58,000 units in its debut week where it was charted at number 5 on Billboard 200.[8] The music video for the single "For You", albeit being charted at number 46 on the Billboard Hot 100, had garnered around 50 million views in YouTube within a month.[9]
