Easily the worst album cover I have EVER seen. Like...what even is that big green nipple thing creeping from the side to attack her and why is she so unbothered by it? Speaking of Nelstar, Parking Lot came on my phone today while on the train and took me by surprise. I started rocking out on the train, didn't care who saw. SUCH a jam. I know whenever "Parking Lot" comes on while I'm driving I have to calm myself because I get too into the song and become distracted! How that didn't do anything as a single I'll never understand. I'm sad "Islands Of Me" won't be on the album. But I'm looking forward to hearing the whole thing, love me some Nelly! I thought it was originally reported that IOM would be on a deluxe edition of the album?

TSI had some amazing songs. I think "Big Hoops" was a bad choice as lead though.
Bucket List, Waiting for the Night, Parking Lot, Believers (Arab Spring), High Life, etc. were all fantastic. I don't think this woman has ever made a bad album, tbh
Folklore <3 <3

As much as I loved "Big Hoops" I get why it didn't connect. "Bucket List", "Parking Lot" or "Waiting For The Night" should've been lead. The title track could've also worked but I would've been iffy with that one too.

Billboard is also listing it as one of the most anticipated albums from 2017. From Billboard: Interesting that it's mentioned that "Islands of Me" is the first single from the album when it's not.

Wow @ them acknowledging maybe the least talked about track on a very obscure album. Haven't listened to TMBT in a while.

The Guardian Future sounds: the best pop and rock of 2017Nelly Furtado – The Ride If you’ve forgotten what made Nelly Furtado such a charming proposition when she emerged in 2000 then you can refresh your memory in March, when she releases her sixth album, which she says is a return to the styles of her debut, Whoa, Nelly. At this stage, she says, “you can lay back, look at the whole picture and figure out what brings you the most joy”. • 31 March, Nelstar.

So excited!
The description for Carnival Games sounds quite intense, didn't expect that.

That Kehlani person tweeted something about Nelly but it's deleted now. Anyone catch it?
Also I heard I'm Like A Bird is being sung at some inauguration?

That's kind of a mess. It reminds me of a 2017 "Maneater," but the beat is a little too off-kilter. In general, she's going in a much better direction than her last album though.

And lol at it being unlisted, how'd you even get the link It's on her website and it's included as a fan premiere in her latest newsletter. The mini-film was directed by Joachim Johnson.
As previously mentioned, Nelly performed "Cold Hard Truth" on the Late Night with Seth Meyers TV show and you could watch it here.

As much as I love Nelly, that performance was very off key and the music sounded like loads of busy noise.
I'll stick to "Behind Your Back" and "Pipe Dreams" for now.

Nelly Furtado Wore All Queer Designers of Color on Late Night With Seth Meyers
The singer debuted her new single, "Cold Hard Truth," wearing all queer POC.
Ahead of her comeback LP, The Ride, due March 31, Nelly Furtado debuted last night her new single, "Cold Hard Truth," on Late Night With Seth Meyers. For her performance, the Canadian pop star exclusively wore pieces by queer designers of color—a subtle, but strong statement to present on mainstream television for Trump's anti-LGBTQ, anti-immigration America.
Styled by Brooklyn's Phil Gomez, another queer POC, Furtado was dressed in a Nicopanda blouse, designed by OUT100's Nicola Formichetti, faux cowhide coat by rising queer brand Daimorf, necklaces from Chris Habana and wide-legged lace trousers by Gypsy Sport. While these details are largely insider knowledge, Furtado's fashionable protest is valuable in creating visibility for indepedent LGBTQ designers.
