I think someone here said it "sounds like a completely different song". I gotta say, I'm intrigued! I mean... it makes sense to completely revamp it. The original was super juvenile, and I can't imagine her doing that "omigod u guys, do ~NOT~ let me txt him!" bridge at nearly 40. 😂

it's not revamped really, but she should take it a step further and do the bridge she did live that would be everything

1) https://dbree.org/v/1935f0

2) S.L.A.Y. (Early Demo) - Has different lyrics in the first verse ("Want the hot light of the spotlight" vs. "Wanna burn bright like the sunrise") and the chorus ("We'll keep slayin' it every single time" vs. "We'll keep slayin' like 1999").

S.L.A.Y. (2014 Final) - Has the revised lyrics I mentioned above, but is otherwise pretty much the same production-wise.

S.L.A.Y. (2020 Final) - Has beefed up production and new lyrics in the chorus ("Baby we're bright as gold, it don't matter what you been told" is now "This is our universe, feelin' flyer than firebirds"). Also the verses have a ton of reverb on them and sound much more muffled.

3) No, that's the final 2014 version.

 

Thank you!

I just saw a comment from july 24 on Bonnie's TikTok, where she says the album is "finally coming", "mid august".

Based on what you've seen from her previous estimates, is it time to get our hopes up or not?

Of course not. August 31 is essentially over and nothing has happened (nor will it do this month). I honestly don't see it happening at all this year, based on the legal issues that she is still involved in, trying to get back the rights of remaining songs. Processes like those take usually long af to be cleared, which is understandable. I've said it before - but if I was her and if this legal issue was still one the table, I wouldn't have teased anything at all just yet.

It's not happening soon.

This is from before she said she’s facing legal issues 😔

Well, we're way past mid August 

I'm honestly not holding out any hope whatsoever, I've got to say she does have balls though--going on podcasts and making a big announcement about how she's dropping two full-length albums 💀 Girls, don't tell me that someone who's been working in the music biz nonstop since forever would discover some major legal complications last minute. We were literally at "mixing the album as I'm printing the CDs" just a couple of weeks ago and now we're back to "can't release any of the songs I own masters to, sorry it's out of my hands" ???? 

And when will she realize it might be better to just put out whatever music she can legally release atm instead of waiting for some drawn out legal process to come to an end?

I mean, she didn't deny that it's coming in 2030? So I'd still keep my hopes up, 7 summers to go

Can't wait for the "S.L.A.Y. (2028 Demo)" leak!

Retconning this FINAL final final mastered version she'd been working on for so long to an early demo of the track from the 4th incarnation of her sophomore album. Worst part is we're not even joking around here...

She should just give up on trying to release the Epic album since Summer is near End.

How are you not banned yet?

The sad thing is that she has so much other material, apart from the Epic material that she could be releasing... Stuff she owns the rights and masters to.

And by the time the Epic stuff comes, it'll be another 10+ years before we get that.

She should be set on releasing an EP every year. If she can’t drop the album by the end of the year she should drop 4 or 5 new songs she does have the rights of
