The way I received like 10 emails at once. Charmbracelet & Elusive Chanteuse both delayed til February. Along with all the various Smile variants.
Oh, it's cute. I'll keep my order and just frame the vinyl. The boring back cover (which I swear, I knew they were gonna do that for...) and no gatefold made that decision for me.
Mariah’s Elusive photo shoot artworks wasn’t even that. It was borderline vector graphic illustrations. I never understood it. Like, I’m sorry but what graphics intern did she spill coffee on to make them do this to her face and HEAD!? She even denounced it when it was released. Surprised she didn’t go in and do something about it. https://www.google.com/amp/s/m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5521380/amp
I've said as much in the Mariah thread but I actually really like the Elusive Chanteuse artwork (bar the covers for The Art of Letting Go & You Don't Know What To Do - both of which make her look Voldemort-ish). It pairs nicely with the super-airbrushed (but like, as a stylistic choice) Emancipation shoot.
Nn I've just accepted the MO for the artwork was like... throwback airbrushed shirt from the amusement park, so that's why it turned out that way and I'm at peace.
Same. Although as I read mine Charmbracrlet is delayed which leads to all of them send to me later. Well.
Charmbracelet still being that difficult album 19 years on... Will this also affect orders from her store? I’ve not had any emails about this or even if it’s dispatched.
I never got my Emancipation/Merry Christmas II so this makes me feel a bit on edge about these turning up too. Strange that 2 of 4 would be delayed a whole month especially when there’s pictures of all 4 out there.
