So I'm not sure if they're talking about the album (since they wrote it in English and with all capitals, just like the album title), or just saying that she's stepping her game up.

I figured it was a cute nod at NEXT LEVEL. I don't think they would name drop an album for any reason other than a nod/reference for Ayu fans to get. Tsuriko/Takako Tsuriya has done nearly all of the official Ayu interviews/articles since the beginning of her career so I could see her putting in little things that only fans would "get" as an easter egg.
