Ewan Chaos Posted September 18 Posted September 18 More artists who seem to struggle to put music out like her (Fergie, Nelly, etc) should start doing shorter albums like this actually. At least for Gwen I feel like that probably held her back from previous releases. I think this will be cute. Purple Irises wasn't bad and I actually didn't care for True Babe so I'm glad it was skipped nnn sorry to her stans. People begging for "cool Gwen" to come back need to give it up, sorry. It's not realistic. Just listen stick to the 1995-2006 ND & Gwen albums and pretend this isn't coming out.

Maxxxine Posted September 18 Posted September 18 Oh Mrs. Shelton that cover looks tacky. If there's any Blake collabs on it I'm throwing it in the trash.
fulgadrum Posted September 18 Posted September 18 you can tell no one's a gwen fan anymore because she's been saying for the better part of a year that the album is yacht-rock, "back of her parent's station wagon on the way to church" kinda 70s vibes, but there's panic cuz of a cowboy hat. Purple Irises was already released like months ago, and it wasn't country. the snippet of the lead single doesn't sound country, but I guess we'll know for sure tomorrow. anyway........ I'm excited for new G material, but this rollout is so sudden and that cover is so ugly, I'm already deflated wondering what this is gonna look like as a body of work. Someone said her discog is a mess after LAMB and like..........yeah lmao 4
vipanonymous Posted September 18 Posted September 18 I really hope it's not country. The track titles screams country True Babe should be released as bonus. She looks beautiful.
Young In Love Posted September 18 Posted September 18 not feeling the cover, the font looks super fanmade but still excited that she's finally releasing a new album i kinda preferred True Babe to Purple Irises tho
Princess Aurora Posted September 18 Posted September 18 OMG it's coming on the day before my birthday. Thank you Gwen

SlowGinFizzzz Posted September 18 Posted September 18 The cover art is a bit of a choice, but I am super perched to finally get a new Gwen Stefani album, eight and a half (!) years after Truth. Yacht rock sounds like a perfect genre for her and the Someone Else's snippet is very promising. Shame it's such a short album though, especially considering that True Babe was right there. Fingers crossed that it'll at least make its way on the Japanese edition as a bonus track or something like that.
xperience30 Posted September 18 Posted September 18 xtina , nelly and now gwen....it feels like its 2006 all over again (now we need fergie to release dutchess - part 3) 1
Reginald Posted September 18 Posted September 18 Hmm... As others have said, Gwen has seemed very lost, creatively, for a while. I can't say this is giving me much confidence in terms of quality (or personal appeal), but I'm clearly not whatever demographic this is supposed to be for. 2
mathekr Posted September 18 Posted September 18 (edited) It's sad how she completely lost her touch for visuals Edited September 19 by mathekr 1 1
Spicy Pisces Posted September 18 Posted September 18 I guess having now two Blake-adjacent/themed albums + the token Christmas one balances out a pop perfection album + a very good one in your discography
Ivan_brit Posted September 18 Posted September 18 Country album?? Gwen.... however we all know that she will go back to promote Xmas songs by the end of the year
fulgadrum Posted September 18 Posted September 18 such floral imagery for a floral album. it's very Gwen to waste potential lol. i'm really looking forward to the short release. I thought TIWTTFL was a bit bloated with the tracklist and deluxe songs (which were better than the base album!) so i'm hoping this is a nice, cohesive themed album. Gwen's music is kinda like pizza, even when it's bad it's kinda good, so it's probably not going to be terrible even if it's not what people are expecting from her. "Empty Vase" intrigues me the most

I want it nowwww, but why only 10 tracks total? :( not only is it only 10 tracks most of the songs are pretty short as well and I think the album is only around 33 minutes in length which is pretty short in my opinion.
