illi is available by the way. I think it will be on Spotify worldwide tomorrow.

yeah, I noticed that his new MVs look kinda cheap, but I guess that's intentional. Like you said, he wanted to go back "to the roots" with his music. So not only his first two new tracks sound more hip-hop-ish but also his MVs now look like they've been shot in 00s.
I don't know .. maybe it wasn't intentional at all and I am the only one who has this feeling from his new work :-)
Even though, I still wonder if "back to the roots" (doesn't matter if musically or visually in music videos) was a good idea. I guess Will has more freedom now while he is under Warner, Coming Home was enterily composed by him and also the whole concept of album about "the artist who had a strange dream about giving birth to a baby alien whom he believes is his reincarnation" is made by him, but it is questionable if this "freedom" may help his popularity or not ... not mentioned that this new album concept sounds totally dumb to me
I am really curious about sales ...but somethings smells like a flop here.

I think we would know about that clause by now, but yeah, everything is possible with Jolin

According to an article I've found, it's a "warm-up" song so I guess it's going to be in the new album.

I don't know ... it is kind of ordinary song. But I don't consider it to be a single for new album (maybe it will be included only as a bonus track), so for now I am still waiting for "real" comeback track that will hopefully blow my mind! ;-)
I think the peak of her music was 2006-2010 for me. I love albums 1087, Diamond Candy, Miss Elva, then it was a downhill .. I am Ready and Shut Up and Kiss Me were so-so albums. It is pretty unfornute because I used to like Elva more than Jolin. But then, Jolin took a blast with her Myself album (and Muse .. and Play) and now she is uncomparably better, more inspirational, more musically advanced artist than Elva who has been wasting her chance for a past few years.
