About Shezz from Pk: L4L

Re: Somewhat Loved (98,020) (98,024) by Shezz from Pk According to Mariahnow.br, it's the Jimmy Jam song. Also, apparently now she's managed by a new company called Range Media or something where Melissa Ruderman is a partner. (Monday 24 May 2021; 20:13)

JD / studio pic (97,972) by Shezz from Pk Before all the lambs collectively facepalm, the pic Mariah reposted of JD in her stories was of him in the studio with Stevie Wonder, Mariah was on the phone with them, not recording with JD (this is from JD's post - MC left it very ambiguous). But of course, we still probably will end up getting some JD I'm sure. (Friday 14 May 2021; 10:25)

Re: Something's up (97,908) (97,911) by Shezz from Pk I don't know if anybody heard her on Twitter spaces a few days ago when she had a random conversation with a few lucky fans. She said she's been busy working on a couple of different music projects, one of which is Christmas related. She seemed very excited about what she's been recording and said she hasn't made anything like this in years. Not sure if it was in this same conversation or not where she said that her voice is also in a much better place than it's been in years. In addition, she has recorded a song for Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis's album coming this June which features an all star line up. Here's hoping we have some good music coming up later this year.

Re: Languishing Interlude (97,459) (97,461) by Shezz from Pk After reading the memoir, it could easily be about her family. Allison or Morgan or even Pat or all three. (Tuesday 23 February 2021; 18:06)

Re: My ranking of Mariah's albums (97,441) (97,455) by Shezz from Pk As with everyone, this could change tomorrow. Just what I'm feeling these days based on what I've heard in the last few months: 1.Butterfly 2.Daydream 3.E=mc2 4.TEOM 5.Emotions 6.Musicbox 7.Caution 8.Glitter 9.MC 10.Rainbow 11.MIMATEC 12.Memoirs 13.Charmbracelet (I do love this album very much. Ugh this is tough.) (Tuesday 23 February 2021; 07:58)

Re: My ranking of Mariah's albums (97,422) (97,428) by Shezz from Pk Haha I wonder no one tried a list thread the first time you went missing Bill. (Sunday 21 February 2021; 17:37)

Re: WBT Valentine's mix (97,399) (97,403) by Shezz from Pk To be honest I still want to believe the following: she feels more comfortable and is under no stress or pressure in the studio of being watched and heard by everybody and can loosen up a bit and go for it. And, if she fails, she can try again and again until she gets it right. In a live performance, she is too damn scared to not nail it on the one shot she has to go for it, so instead of being ballsy and going for it and risking utter humiliation of sounding like a screeching cat, she plays safe and goes for the backing track. Try as she may, she is not confident about what's going to come out of her throat. Yes she can't do the vocal acrobatics anymore in the studio and her voice is no longer the same but she can still sing a bit. Just my theory - I could be wrong and she could totally be using a Stephen Hawking like voice device but I think that's less likely. (Thursday 18 February 2021; 16:20)

Re: Migrate or I'm That Chick (97,294) (97,299) by Shezz from Pk First of all, Mimi L: welcome back. You have been missed. Hope all's been well with you. Love that idea of FTR video. For some reason, or actually because of the music used in the M perfume ad, I always see M flapping around in the water when I hear the song. Also, bad singles choices side, didn't she give up on the album early because she went through that traumatic miscarriage at that time? That's what I remember hearing or reading recently when she spoke about her miscarriage. Can't remember how that came up now a decade later. And my vote goes to I'm That Chick of course. One of the highlights amidst that stunning "non cohesive" body of work. (Friday 5 February 2021; 06:29)

Re: AIWFCIY official videos (96,759) (96,766) by Shezz from Pk Sorry you're not gonna like me going off your list but my favourite is the MC25 behind the scenes video she released last year set to AIWFC. It perfectly captures that iconic moment in her life and you can see her genuinely enjoying every moment of it and giving it her all without becoming camera stiff and posed. It's like she came full circle with that song last year and that video captures the spirit effortlessly. (Wednesday 2 December 2020; 05:35)

Re: UK Number 1? (96,758) (96,765) by Shezz from Pk Fingers crossed (exclamation marks). (Wednesday 2 December 2020; 05:26)

Re: O Santa? O Mariah (96,668) (96,680) by Shezz from Pk I'm just absolutely flabbergasted that she's invited the two of them to sing with her. On the same song. (Tons of exclamation marks.) That's mighty ballsy of her. Kudos to Mariah. Jennifer Hudson can sing anybody under the flood and with all the new Mariah comparisons, Ariana can show her up too. Mariah will be in control of the situation and center stage for sure. Not a huge fan of the song, so here's hoping they've reworked it into a winner. It'll be interesting to see who'll be the Celine and who'll be the Mariah to her Aretha. I feel we'll have two Mariah's a la 98 Divas respecting the Grand Dame of Christmas on her song and on her special. (Thursday 19 November 2020; 18:59)

Re: The mother (96,494) (96,500) by Shezz from Pk Not that Andrew needs any defense, but Robert this time he was defending Mariah against a hater and not being cruel. At least that's what I got. Happy Mariah Season everybody. Hope we have some joy to close out this crazy year. Can't wait for Mariah's festive plans' announcements. (Monday 2 November 2020; 16:55)

Re: Jade has had a baby (96,491) (96,495) by Shezz from Pk Wow. Congrats to mama Jade. (Monday 2 November 2020; 03:09)

Re: Where I Belong should be a single (96,471) (96,478) by Shezz from Pk According to Mariahnow.br, this song actually samples I Know What You Want (the beat is quite audible) and was originally meant to be a remix of IKWYW. Sounds more like a part 2. I think the chances of it being a single are pretty good since it already has a video shot with MC in that red dress but who knows. (Saturday 31 October 2020; 16:56)

Re: Big Willy (96,422) (96,425) by Shezz from Pk Been quite worried about Bill's sudden absence as well. I've never seen him get into any arguments here with anybody. Does anybody have any way to contact him to find out if he's okay? (Sunday 25 October 2020; 14:33)

Re: Firecracker Loverboy vs Cameo Loverboy vs Remix Lo (96,352) (96,365) by Shezz from Pk Firecracker version all the way. It is exciting, fun and infectious with that amazing intro and outro and more energetic vocals and ofcourse that infamous sample. (Tuesday 20 October 2020; 15:18)

Mariah & Busta song to finally see the light o‘day (96,297) by Shezz from Pk Busta's new album is being released later this month with the long teased Mariah collab "Right where I belong" finally (Friday 16 October 2020; 18:23)

Re: Liner Notes (96,079) (96,083) by Shezz from Pk Thank you so much for that Bill. Nice to read them all. (Saturday 10 October 2020; 18:59)

Re: Fave five The Rarities songs (96,007) (96,010) by Shezz from Pk This is just for the newly heard songs and not counting DYTOM, EFA, and SA that I’ve loved for decades (but are getting less love now): 1. Out here on my own 2. Loverboy (Firecracker) 3. Cool on you 4. Can you hear me 5. Here we go around again / Mesmerized (Wednesday 7 October 2020; 19:33)

Re: The Rarities - track by track review (sorry) (95,937) (95,938) by Shezz from Pk Bill, that was a fun read. I'm glad you weren't disappointed after how excited you were the last couple of weeks. I feel bad for STD - it's actually living the life of its acronym. Everybody wants to stay far away from it. (Saturday 3 October 2020; 17:52)

Re: Thoughts after first listen to "The Rarities" (95,912) (95,913) by Shezz from Pk Love the album. Haven't gotten to the Tokyo Dome concert yet but the highlights for me that I've had on repeat (other than OHOMO) are: 1. Loverboy (Firecracker version) 2. Cool on you 3. Can you hear me Lullaby of Birdland is lovely, I'm not getting into Mesmerized yet - probably once I've worn the others out. Who knew a track from the Glitter debacle era would be the strongest track from all the eras represented. OHOMO is the crowning glory of this album for me - but we love everybody. (Friday 2 October 2020; 12:22)

Oprah interview high quality link (95,771) by Shezz from Pk Let's hope it stays up long enough. I've just seen the first few minutes, thought I'd share it here in case people are still looking. (Saturday 26 September 2020; 11:22)

Re: OHOMO (95,625) (95,642) by Shezz from Pk Don’t forget what came before OHOMO - STD. (Saturday 19 September 2020; 06:02)

Re: Out Here On My Own (95,603) (95,611) by Shezz from Pk Gut wrenching and so powerfully beautiful like only Mariah can do. I guess they decided they didn't want Billie to sing an already famous 80's song as if it was her's. I don't know if I'm explaining myself properly. I'd still love to know why it was kept off the soundtrack, would have been a closer to rival EFA for sure. I wonder if she and the label would be willing to promote a song recorded 20 years ago.
