Alright, it still feels surreal we're finally able to (properly) listen to this and I'll try to be as objective as possible regarding the whole situation surrounding her career.

 

It was tough to accept the album was not coming out anymore back in the day as I genuinely worshipped American Girl and the rest of the tracks she performed live throughout that time. 

I believe releasing the album now could represent something quite interesting in today's music scene since unlike the early 10s, nobody is properly pursuing the euphoric and extra rich dance sound that belongs to those years (there are only a couple of indie attempts).

 

With some support, Bonnie could genuinely build her niche and start a movement. Also thanks to TikTok's obsession with nostalgia, the late 00s-Early 10s could become the new 80s, they most likely will tbh. We just need a proper spark to start the fire.

It’s still there, but just tacked onto the end of the song as a lil outro (it’s also in the intro). Imo that works much better. Before it felt like the chorus was way too over-extended. 

agreed!

She sounds great, song is and always has been a massive bop but what was the point of cutting the final post-chorus in half? 

Posted

honestly im gonna listen to the leaked bc it feels so weird without the post chorus part...

 

also not a fan of the new lyrics sadly 

Posted

It's very campy and corny but lowkey a bop. I can totally hear Katy singing this

Which Epic tracks has she confirmed for the album so far?

 

Don't Get Mad, Love Spell, what else?

I love it! It's my first time hearing it too so it's a completely new song for me. Also I love how she says "slay" in such an anthemic song, back in 2013 (or whenever this was written in) the word wasn't such a meme it is nowadays I guess :laugh:

Oh really? I wasn't really online back then so I wouldn't know but I felt like it was much more niche back then and now with TikTok and stuff it's more popular so I thought that maybe the song's lyrics were received differently when it first leaked. Anyways, I love it... S L A Y :jamming:

maybe a controversial opinion: the chorus lyrics are so bad and cringey, puts me off from listening :coffee:

 

decent song otherwise and the cover is gorg

 

hope she puts finishes dashboard and puts it on the album, the drop on it is so hot

MCKEE’S COMEBACK ALBUM Hot City takes place in an imaginary, retro-futuristic city, a world with an “Eighties-Miami, expensive prostitute vibe” that lives in McKee’s head. Several songs have leaked over the years: “Forever 21” is one fan favorite. It was inspired by a so-called friend who stole her credit card and charged thousands of dollars at the clothing store early in her career. “The track might seem like an innocent pop song but it has a dark underbelly,” she says. Other tracks include “Jenny’s Got a Boyfriend,” a conceptual play off Rick Springfield’s “Jessie’s Girl,” in which she sings about fantasizing about stealing her friend’s flirty boyfriend. (“It’s not about actually going for it, okay!”) 

And there’s the revamped, “sexually frustrated brat” pop song, “I Wanna ******* Call You,” which McKee wrote about a summer fling she had with an unnamed celebrity. “A couple of songs were inspired by him,” she says with a smirk. “It was a very lusty five seconds of summer type of situation.” There’s also “Snatched,” the only fully new song on the album, which she wrote with the drag community in mind. “Yeah I came to serve/Did I strike a nerve?” she sings on the ballroom-esque track.

this just shows that you can make a great ******* video with a low budget, shame it's not getting an attention it deserves, it's amazing, especially her standing against the wall with the kaleidoscope effect :flame:
