Next single announcement today!!!

Guesses?

I’m hoping for Forever 21 or Electric Heaven.

did u get this from her hotline? i didn't get any message yet...

[Ice Prince]

My best bet is Rewind Your Heart. I agree it's more proper for Autumn so maybe it's a possibility. Forever 21 and Electric Heaven would be the ones I want the most, tbh. I lowkey I Wanna Fucking Call You has chances too, but who knows.

Wig! Where'd you hear this?!

While we need "Forever 21" (her best song) to get the single treatment at some point, I feel like that's a quintessential summer anthem. I think "Rewind Your Heart" would be the perfect sadgirl / sadboi fall bop.

That said, I hope we get a "Forever 21" music video alongside the album release in the spring. And another single or two in between if I'm not being too greedy. 😬

She has a texting service now.

Said she’ll be announcing new music, merch, and tour info with it.

The new single text came last night.

"Don't Get Mad, Get Famous" is coming Nov. 3rd!!

DAMN I love the new production on this song. (You can listen through most of the first chorus on TT). And you know it will sound even better on streaming.

I wasn't expecting Don't Get Mad Get Famous to be on the album, didn't she say once on her TikTok comments that she never finished writing the lyrics for the song, and was even surprised fans were asking for it? Or am I confusing it for something else?

[Fellicia Hitch]

Sounds amazing and more refined. 

[Ice Prince]

Don't Get Mad Get Famous? Out of all of the other options? Bring it on I guess, but if it took the place of an essential track imma riot ngl. Lowkey I always saw DGMGF more like a b-side or something...

[zaynphallic]

If "SLAY" and "Hot City" didn't light TiKTok on fire, "Don't Get Mad" is probably her best bet to go viral (along with IWFCY). So I'd assume that's her reason for giving it the single treatment. I don't really get the impression that Bonnie cares too much for the song. 😅 Didn't she deny it's inclusion on the album for the longest time? Anyway, I hope it'll be a cute little viral moment to drum up some more interest in the rest of the tracks. It's kind of weird to be releasing it in the beginning of November when the music landscape heavily shifts to Christmas. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see if we get a video, or if this is more of a buzz single sort of thing.

In other news, in her TikTok comments she said that there are "3 more singles" coming before the album (not sure if this includes "Don't Get Mad" or not).

 

[Heartbreak Anthem]

SIX singles pre-album?! That's SIX music videos CONFIRMED! Yes! That's how you do it, Bonnie!!

[Crystal <3]

I was hoping it was this year but at least its still coming!!

[BraveNewSeth]

DGMGF has always had a ton of potential so I’m excited for this. I just hope she turned it into a full length song with a proper second verse and bridge. The production could use some work too but I’m liking what I hear from the TikTok snippet. 

[Ice Prince]

Okay I accidentally stumbled upon the DGMGF snippet and she really did quite the rework?! I can't believe I'm bopping so hard to it. It has the potential to become my favourite single so far... and THREE MORE SINGLES? they better be Forever 21, Electric Heaven (or Rewind Your Heart) and I Wanna Fucking Call You. She can flesh them out very very well. Bonnie, you deserve the world queen!

I'm just so stoked we are getting this from her, honestly... more than Epic would've ever given us!
