Sucker is a great album name. 'Break the Rules' is pretty damn good too. I never expected her to actually get mainstream success so I'm very pleased to see it happening and without her sacrificing what made her so promising!

Guys, I’m moving the release of Sucker back to December 16th in the US and January 26th in the UK & Europe. ‘Boom Clap’ is still getting so much love all over the world, which is crazy, and it just makes sense, so I have proper time to focus on the album launch. The support I’ve received this year has been mind-blowing. As you know, I’ll also be supporting Katy Perry on her European arena tour in February! I totally can’t wait to see you all, Angels. I promise it’ll be worth the wait

 

JANUARY?! I was getting really hyped up for the release in a few weeks.

 

I don't really understand the reasoning? Surely it's better to release while there is still some hype for Boom Clap and off the back off Break The Rules.

Maybe she wants to launch it off the back of 'Break The Rules' in the US, but that'd mean we have to get another single in the UK in January?

 

I'm mega disappointed, I was looking forward to this.

Disappointing it's been pushed back :(

 

On the plus side, we now have the (wonderful) artwork:

Striking artwork! A bit of a shame it's been delayed, but it might be a good move for her. Maybe it would have got a bit lost here in the Q4 sales climate?

 

I wonder if this means that 'Break The Rules' will impact later than originally intended, or if they'll go ahead with its release and then launch the album with a different single?

I'd say there's no way they won't stick with it, it's on the R1 playlist and everything.

For crying out loud :drama: I was so excited for this album and now I have to wait ANOTHER 4 months

New song 'London Queen'. I don't know what this is supposed to be, an instant grat for America perhaps?

 

 

It's not very good and I'm starting to worry about the album's quality.

it's like a poor man's bubblegum bitch
Not good. Her last album is slaying Sucker as it stands.
I'm a 'sucker' (:D) for anything this bitch touches right now, great to see the album will be nice and diverse. All 3 songs so far have been comepletely different, though I fear it may not be coherent enough...

let's get real, it's absolutely terrible. why in god's name would you put out such a track when pushing (what is to most people's mind's) a new artist? it sounds totally unlike the two singles and isn't very good, trite subject that's been rehashed a million times and nobody could give a f*** about.

 

america is different to the uk, we know and can guess why. should i release a song about my holiday to tenerife 12 years ago because it'd sure have the same amount of relevance lyrically and soundwise going off this turgid crap.

Kingdom is out there and it's AMAZING. Better than anything we've got this era so far. I don't get why they didn't put it on the album!

 

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS best song on the album (so far) CAN'T. STOP. LISTENING.

I am listening to this now and really struggling to make it to the end. Her voice is really grating and doesn't have the same passion as Marina's (sorry for comparing but they are very similar sounding, here it's just tinny and brash and annoying). The songs lack depth for me too and it's all quite try-hard lyrically.

 

Very disappointed in it all and probably won't return to it again. A shame because i really love 'Boom Clap' :(
