    Samantha Mumba has never charted outside the UK Top 6!

    I fully expect COOL to continue that record for her

    TBH my full initial reaction was excitement tempered with 'but it'll probably just be cheap crap'.

    HOWEVER, apparently she's been in the studio with MNEK :o

    Is she giving us 2 weeks to self-isolate for this? I'm taking this as a sign it's up to par.

    That just sounds like someone's sink grinder with a bit of R&B production in the background.

    A shame cuz I was looking forward to liking her new content.

    Ooh, she’s got the braids back. Unfortunately I don’t think the success will be forthcoming with them.

    Sounds like Brandy crashed into her and they settled on a sing off. Not cool.

    I'd say she's taking the Micky, but she's already did that:

    I'm fairly sure she identifies as being NATIONALITY FLUID.

    oh sorry I totally forgot

    it’s not like she’s a legend where everyone remembers her nationality though. She’s hardly U2...

    You’ll have to excuse the historical oppression-related sensitivity. :side-eye: There’s nothing more triggering to an Irish person than ONE OF OUR OWN being claimed by the/labelled British - which I know funky wasn’t doing intentionally.

    Just watch yourselves the next time B*Witched make a stab at a comeback :kim:

    Otherwise I go full tiocfaidh ár lá :ireland:

    No it’s ok she’s one of theirs in the South, we don’t claim her up in the North.

    *wee joke*

    Doing the opposite of shaking and crying at the idea that @funky advocates the solution to no hard border as being simply to reclaim the island of Ireland as British.

    I quite like this in a 6/10 kind of way. It'll do nothing but hopefully her label which I see is Mumba Music Worldwide don't lose faith in her.
