It was most likely meant to be a surprise and they’re just hoping HTE goes viral since MANY people asked for it. I think the song and the ep will do ok for her.

wren Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Kelly did say she is releasing something that leads to something bigger I feel in one interview and this EP could be that..?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinKDC Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I don’t think the new album is coming this year. The re-recordings of her own songs are also coming. And if Atlantic is smart it would include UTT, which means we’ll be getting the re-recording album around October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoopidjenna Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I've always wondered what it costs to license songs for a cover project like this. There are plenty of random acts on Spotify that do tons of cover songs, do they not actually have the rights to use the songs and are just doing it anyway until someone tells them to take it down? Or maybe it's different if you're an established act or are contracted with a music label/publisher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like how Jason and Kelly were doing the “KC Live” thing in 2016, on a website giving out free downloads of live cover songs and then they just mysteriously stopped doing that and they went away quickly. Most people seem to think it had to do with legal stuff. I cannot wait for this, but I hope the only 6 songs thing does not turn off people who are expecting a full album.

This guy has 228 million streams of Kelly’s Already Gone (far more than her original) and her name is not even on the writer. She’s losing a lot of money for someone taking credit for her work. That person doesn’t list anyone on the songs. Not sure how there legal https://open.spotify.com/track/5zCunX8URvLoBHlg1Fnjv6?si=n6FMlhJuSMWi--FCrvvqJQ Edited May 24, 2022 by RealityBites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieceByPiece_KC Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) I don't know if it necessarily costs a lot of money to release a cover, but I know you essentially forfeit all the publishing royalties associated with it to the original artist. That's even the case with sampling. I read somewhere that Ariana had to hand over like 90% of the publishing credit for 7 Rings to Julie Andrews.

Honestly this may be it - I can completely seeing Kelly saying don't post about/promote myself when a horrific act of violence just occurred. --- that being said the cover is amazing and she really is the best vocalist of amongst her peers.

Articles said it was supposed to be announced today in the morning, but the official announcement was probably moved to later because of what happened at the school in Texas yesterday… it would seem insensitive to post about it just like that, I think. We’ll see if we get anything later. Or if they just wait until tomorrow or Friday. Edited May 25, 2022 by Ab1818 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATRL Moderator Bloo Posted May 25, 2022 ATRL Moderator Share Posted May 25, 2022 I don't think there's going to be much of a rollout. This is probably just a cute lil thing for her fans to enjoy until she does something else or something. Kelly is literally said she isn't doing anything this summer intentionally to be with her kids. So expecting much of a rollout or promo for this is setting yourself up for disappointment. A 6-track cover EP isn't also something that has much potential to attain much commercial success. Let's just be grateful for the music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
