AL7 Album Speculations Thread

I still wonder if they have a relationship tho..?

But she can send new music to production people right? They can mix it and send it back. So she can do a lot I think. Pete doesn’t have to do it alone.

If you work on a record with Avril, the axe is eminent. If you’re lucky, you might get to be a “close friend” when she refers to you in interviews 🔪 🔪 🔪

They can definitely make demos and she has produced songs along before (and maybe Pete is good at it too) but Tommee Proffitt said he'd been working with her for a year so seems she is on touch with producers

So this Tommee Profitt is the one that composes all of NF's music. And to be honest, i wouldn't mind at all if Avril worked with him for the entire AL7. As NF is a rapper, maybe MGK is involved somehow in AL7 after all (?). or even better, NF himself, that would be dope, a bit weird tho, but who knows hahaha

I still don't know why fans say DB would have been a hit, or at least had the potential to be one. There is nothing special about that song for me, had they released the Nicki version it maybe would have gotten some airplay because of that, but otherwise there's nothing about that song that screams "hit" to me just because it's catchy.

Songs don't get played on the radio because of how good or bad they are. If an artist has good streaming, it will help it on the charts. The artist also needs to promote and do interviews and stuff, which Avril doesn't really do much of anymore. Her social media strategy for promoting is putting a swipe up link to the song on Spotify over and over which does nothing to attract new listeners.

I don't see Avril ever having a big radio song again unless she worked with a hitmaker like a Max Martin type. And they need to promote it. She also needs to have better streaming numbers. I don't think she would be successful trying to do pop/rock. It's fine if that's what she wants to do, but that type of music isn't currently popular and likely wouldn't do that well on the radio or streaming. I think for now she should just focus on releasing whatever kind of music she wants and releasing it as soon as possible instead of waiting. She has a dedicated group of fans that still support her and she already had hits in her past, it's honestly not that big a deal if she ever has a hit song again or not.

Well, thank you next is a terrible song and it got to number1, WAP as well. It's not about the song itself. it's more of the suprise effect. Like, something that's different, that's why billie skyrocketed.

DB had those elements. It was a 2000's inspired song with rap. it was catchy and had funny and empowering lyrics. The only thing left was a music video that never happened. The views on the lyric video are pretty high considering it's avril and it's only a lyric video. The hype was there, Nicki's fandom willing to help, or to make the song a hit. The weird factor about a singer like Avril, pop-rock, and nicki colaborating was there too, everyone was shook and talking about it. The cardi B dish in the lyrics was there, even more spotlight.

That's why we think DB had potential, a lot actually. Thank you next played the mean girls card and nostalgia. DB could have done the same. The idea of gathering blondes for the music video was amazing even tho it never was intented. But it could have worked. She just needed a freaking music video. I understand that it may have cost a lot to a video like that but...idk, no pain, no gain i guess.
