I'm not gonna get excited for this, although I hope it's new music.

She's in Florida I think. Orlando related maybe?

Now I'm wondering if it's related to her record contract.

Actually, that could really be it.
Do we know if any other Idol winners have completed their obligations under their original contract, and then renegotiated with the same label to resign? Or more basically, is Kelly the first Idol winner to officially complete their obligations under their first contract? I know she renegotiated so that changed the terms of the contract she initially agreed to, but this could be a precedent setting moment for other Idol winners.

^ She's the first Idol winner to finish their initial contract (without being dropped).

Sorry about the double post, but the live stream just started. I didn't catch the beginning, but she mentioned she would be singing covers of songs that she loves but weren't able to do on tour. She's going to cover a new song each day and she said all the original artists have something in common.
EDIT: Just re-watched the stream and she said the actual announcement will be made on Friday. The songs are supposed to be hints leading up to it.

She sounds amazing, and I feel like this announcement is more substantial than we might have initially thought. I wonder if Jack knows anything that he can't share.

Wow, Kelly sure hasn't lost anything vocally. In fact she might have gained some due to the vocal rest maybe. What an incredible performance of "These Arms of Mine"...

I'm guessing soundtrack single? Seeing as how the first song was part of the Dirty Dancing soundtrack. When she mentioned FR I was hoping for a covers album/boxset (ha!)

Do you think these artists all point to the label Kelly is moving to? I don't know where Redding was but it looks like he was initially signed by Atlantic Records. No idea if he made a lot of moves or not.
The other guess is the soundtrack single, which we have all known was coming. This first song is from Dirty Dancing. If tomorrow's is from a movie then I think it will be confirmed.

Do artists typically announce record label changes?

I'm guessing it's a new project, maybe a covers/collabs album or the country album, but definitely not her next pop album. Wouldn't be surprised if the label announcement was tied into the project announcement as well. 2-for-1 PR.

But Kelly said the artists themselves were the hints. So unless Redding did covers a lot or did a country album then I don't see how that can be what her announcement is.

A Memphis Blues/R&B type record would make sense based solely on Otis Redding, or maybe she'll be featured on some sort of Stax tribute album later this year.

I feel like it has to be her new contract. She said she hasn't been singing, so I doubt she's been recording (also sounds like she still has some vocal cobwebs to dust off, but she sounds strong); all the artist pointing to the label would make sense. This is also the kind of thing that would be announced via press release (but so would new music). And even if it is new music, that wouldn't happen without a contract, so I'm thinking/hoping the new contract will at least be part of the Friday news.
She's looking good, too.

"It might not be the most exciting announcement for y'all, but it's the most exciting announcement for me as an artist."
To me, this suggests that it's not new music.

Maybe she's starting her own label... or maybe she has a lot of control over her stuff at wherever she signed to (if that's even what the announcement is)

I feel like it's not going to be the announcement of her new label...that does NOT warrant 4 days of Facebook live videos LOL. It won't make a difference to 95% of her fans.
But who really knows.

I have read before that there is a Stax record musical in the work. If tomorrow's song is from a Stax artist I think it's clear that she got a part in the musical and that will be friday's announcement.

She sang "These Arms of Mine"? That song was featured in the Road House movie soundtrack. Maybe she is singing songs from soundtracks as a cute way to announce her own soundtrack song for the Secret Scripture.

I would literally pay for daily 10 minute videos of her just talking about random shit.

I was thinking maybe she is going to make up the dates that got cancelled from her last tour due to vocal rest but that'd be exciting news for us fans so who knows. Loved the Otis cover. She's looking good too. :)

She specifically said the announcement has something to do with the four artists she's covering all of which have something in common. I feel like it's got to be something more significant than the release of that soundtrack song. I'm thinking it may have something to do with the genre of music or that the four artist all have a live album or something like that.
