Me too, is there a final version though? I think it's more likely for the final version of S.L.A.Y. to leak than it is for IWFCY,

Also, final Hot City would end careers. 

I thought Hot City was the final though?

I'm pretty sure these are the ones that leaked in demo form:

• Don't Get Mad, Get Famous (it's evident, but apparently she never finished it)
• Electric Heaven (as it's a 'rough' demo)
• Everything But You
• Hitman (another rough demo)
• I Wanna Fucking Call You
• Outlaw
• S.L.A.Y.

How do you guys think Bonnie truly feels about her songs leaking, and what do you think she will actually do about this? Or she DGAF?

Come on everybody let's go, we can do anything, it don't matter what people think, we'll keep slaying it every single time 

[Bambi101]

I honestly don't know what she's thinking anymore and why she won't just get it over with and drop (at least) an EP. That's what I would do if I were in her position. GET YOUR COINS, girl. Yeah, it sucks, and this wasn't the way she imagined us to hear the songs but as others have said--at this rate we'd all be listening to S.L.A.Y. on our deathbeds; she wants everything to be so perfect that in the end she ends up achieving nothing and she's really her own worst enemy.

She'll most likely use it as an excuse to not release any new music for the next ten years. See you for the next leak fest in 2032 y'all.

For real though, the normal sane thing for her to do would be to just get those damn songs on streaming services, so she can actually profit from her work.

Well, I mean, the leaked Hot City does sound like the version she used to perform, but I guess the reason why I think it's not completely finished is because it sounds a bit rough to my ears (in comparison to Rewind Your Heart, Everything But You (final), and Somebody's Gonna Get Hurt which are all like perfectly polished and ready for CD printing).

If this ever went to court I am sure the Judge would side with us.

 

Judge - According to my documents, you released your only album in 2004? You have been promising new music ever since?

Some of the leaked songs were recorded as far back as 2009?

Ms. McKee I hereby declare that this music be released in full and immediately or I will have no choice but to convict you for claiming to be a popstar and entraping the gays for a period of 10+ years

I truly wanna know how other artist can share their unreleased material (Myah, Eva Simons) lots of artist who are signed to labels or have been dropped then go Patreon to sell their unreleased songs. Even if she still has a contract, the legal binding for most songs is 7 years if they’re not being used. Let’s be real, she needs her scooter! Where is her scooter?

[Guest]

Like girl has had every disease possible, and she still won’t share her music, hell- she could pull a neon and sell them privately if she’s worried about that 1/3 of a penny per stream on Spotify, like get her scooter!

Hahaha your posts are hilarious and always make my day 

It's kinda tragic how the album she's least proud of and that she doesn't even like, as well as one that doesn't reflect her current artistry at all, is the only one available EVERYWHERE for purchase and streaming.

I originally celebrated the fact she went independent because I'd assumed that her being free of the bureaucracy and the dated ways labels market pop stars would lead to her being more productive, but now I've come to the conclusion that maybe she should've never gone independent because look where we are. 2022, her last song was released 3 years ago, she's only released ONE extended play in 2015, and seven promo singles in total since leaving Epic. 

It's clear Bonnie is the type of artist who needs deadlines and other people pushing her to get things done, otherwise she gets distracted. I'm happy she enjoys shooting her short films and developing her acting reel, but last I heard her dream was to become the biggest pop star in the world. She needs focus, and she needs to set deadlines and meet them. The TikToks are cute, but unless she's trying to rebrand herself as an influencer they ain't gonna cut it.

Thank you, your comment has now made my day!

Can anyone please explain the difference between this version of Sayanara and the version that leaked already? 

Vocals are slightly different I guess. Specially on the spoken part, when she says "Sayonara". Sounds more like the way Miranda says it

IWFCY final when? 😭

[Newtooz18]

If I was Bonnie and knew these songs were leaking I would have registered an account and said 'sorry guys, please don't leak these as although I have made many promises to reliease the album, I really do intend to release within the next year or so. I will post on here to keep you updated and once a month I will share a song or two that won't be on the album' 

She would be happy and we would be happy.

one could wish, but we know all too well she’s not going to put this album out. she’s had 10+ years to do so and the sound of this album has aged. unless she’s pulling a taylor swift and re-recording the entire session, then i don’t think this album will see the light of day in the form of an official release. i’d love to see bonnie prove me wrong though; this record deserve(d)s so much 😭

The album would be fine and fit in with current sounds if there were tweeks made here and there, she has a SOLID back catalogue to choose from but she has let down her small but loyal fanbase year after year after year  and people are buying less of her empty promises more than they are buying her music and thats not how the fame game works,
