1:59 is soooo good. It really feels like what Aaliyah would have done if she did another album and got more into her freaky side.

 

Love the ad libs at the beginning and her vocals throughout. There's something special about this record.

Nah..Aaliyah was scheduled to work with Trent Reznor and Johnathan Davis. So an alt rock sound was more of what she was headed towards.

 

Like the song and can't wait to hear the album

Everythingnormanikordei said Candy Paint MV was shot last year and 1:59 MV was shot in March ? True ?

I know they were trying to film it last year and shuffling through directors. Not sure what came to be. Haven't heard anything about a finished product but I hope ENK is right!

 I said the same thing she keeps saying she's shooting something special if it was MV she would've just said I'm on set shooting a MV but she keeps using the word special so I think it's a vevo live performance🤔  and if so don't they normally sing 2 songs on there 1:59 and wild side intimate performance on the horizon let me dream guys 😅😂

Candy Paint live before it drops would be nice 

damn she needs to shoot the music video for Candy Paint already but without those bangs.

we need one live that's at least 20 min, Q&A time. after next single drops  or right during album release week would be great 

I can't believe some people are trying to have a gotcha moment with Mani pulling 900k streams. I'm honestly proud of her because a lot of us was expecting way less than that. I really hope to see the song keep on growing because if it has longevity, this will shut so many people up, and I can't wait to see that happen.

Just realized the black rocket on the album cover looks like the black missiles from Mario games

 

 

In case anyone who missed the love wants to see it

How many songs from the album have you heard except Candy Paint and Big Boy

This song is actually VERY addicting.

What's up with the wheresjay interrogation tho

Do we think she's attending the Met? 

1:59 needs performances lol. i hope we get like maybe an acoustic/acapella and some sort of online performance with it. 1:59 def can be a slow burner tho i just know radio is gonna eat it up

Not sure what to say about that.... I don't know for others, but whenever I get to hear the live performances of songs before they are actually released, it kind of loses their spark (might be different if you heard the studio version before, was just saying from the perspective of hearing only the snippet) , especially since it tends to different quite a bit from the final version of the song.

 

Also, after 2 more listens, I actually got into 1:59. It's really good and quite a grower actually! I have a feeling they started the era with it so it can start the hype for the album. In a way, I think it might be for the best they didn't start with the best song from the album, so the overall perception of the album itself after the first listen to be a positive one instead of having higher expectations that aren't going to be met. I do feel like 1:59 could work as the intro or 2nd track of the album (which could have been followed nicely by Wild Side if they decide to keep it on the album).

 

About Candy Paint as a single (or other more uptempo song), that would probably best to be pushed during the album release as they usually send 1 song to playlists. It might as well give more visibility and push for the album as it's also out rather than just hype it only for people to start forgetting about it as the time goes by.

 

As for the album itself, personally, I wouldn't mind more songs as 1:59, as long as they flow well as a work of body. Something like this, Wild Side and Waves would make for a really good album.

 

Sorry for the wall of text lol.

Well, the rest of it was outside the first paragraph for the quote but thought it might be best to write all I had in mind in one post rather than create 10 posts for each page  

Edited April 28, 20242 yr by Cry

Second day streams are in and they seem good to me for now. We need some more effective promo so hopefully a performance is in the works and at least a visualizer. 

 

We need Apple Music to support if we want this to chart (which I really hope it does).
