  1. Safe to expect these to be full reproductions (maybe we'll get her to reteam with some former collabs, but still), so they will sound different and likely more organic. Let's keep our expectations in check in this regard and understand that she likely isn't able to singularly reproduce the exact same sound, but I'm sure they'll be amazing and will be fully her and therefore, I'll be streaming and promoting regardless!
  2. Yes it's been 10 years but I couldn't respect Bonnie more for all it takes to do what she is doing right now.
  3. OK I guess I am back to checking this board daily! I feel it's really coming this time!
  4. I don't think we talk about Rewind Your Heart nearly enough. The "final" version with the updated vocal runs has been on constant repeat for like a solid month now. I think it's up there with Bonnie's best in terms of melody and production and maybe top 3 on the album for me.
  5. I really feel for Bonnie. She probably teased under the assumption she had the legal rights to release but has since hit some snags and the very fans she's trying to feed are now eating her alive. It's not in her interest to lie or misdirect. I think this album is in response to fan demands, what other reason would she have to withhold it? She's also probably dealing with a thing that a lot of creative people struggle with, crippling perfectionism and self-doubt. It is not easy to do what she does, at the level that she has, for so long as an independent artist. I will continue to always cut her slack even when she edges us. I love the new SLAY btw. The lyrical changes make it more idiosyncratic and specific to her voice.
  6. Hey y'all, longtime lurker first time poster here. I listened to today's podcast interview and just wanted to spread some positivity onto this thread. Not only did Bonnie take time to reveal her inspirations, her approach to her craft, and even the technical details of songwriting that not many people at her level share (yes we've heard much of it before but still, I always love to see under the hood), she also shared stories and anecdotes that really reveal yet again how much fucking guts it takes to have a reputation like hers and put original work out into the world in an industry that has gotten harder on creatives like her. The story of her approaching labels/music industry people she knew and trusted and they made her feel small for "still" wanting to be an artist... that story made me so angry for her. The fact that the industry is as hard to break into as it is (she did it), how hard it is to succeed as it songwriter (she did it) get signed to not one but TWO labels (she did it) then go on the break out on her own and find critical and commercial success for her independent artist project (she did it)... this woman is a fucking BOSS and had show incredible brilliance and heart for decades now. I know we're joking around here, but she's the last thing from lazy or entitled... she's a human battling the kinds of insecurities that we all have, and when it comes to releasing music, she's facing the kind of challenges stakes most of us will never understand. So enjoy that leaked music, keep cheering her on, and keep cutting her some slack. She's earned it. THAT SAID... I'm so grateful for this board for being so active and dedicated to Bonnie (even when it gets a lil nasty haha) but to also just, I'm grateful for the joy this woman has brought to all of us. And if she's reading this, I just hope she really does feel the love. ❤️
