Samantha Mumba's back

[dUb]

Pop toilet was full and let's give her a chance I suppose

 

[VoR]

Oh my.

 

[HeLikedTurner]

What is a Samantha Mumba?

 

[straightorbroken]

CIRCLES AND TRIANGLES.

I'd love it to be good. C'mon Mumba.

 

[Berly]

Samantha Mumba has never charted outside the UK Top 6!

I fully expect COOL to continue that record for her

 

[Dark Carnival]

I’m going to go ahead and give this a 3

 

[Will]

Samantha Mumba has never charted outside the UK Top 6!

Micky Modelle has sad recollections to the contrary

 

[VoR]

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

 

[dUb]

 

[SDF]

Praying that this is good

 

[straightorbroken]

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

 

[dUb]

Well it sounds... ok

 

[Jark]

sounds like a fucking MESS!

 

[K.C.]

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.

 

[funky]

First Leona now this?

Noughties Brit invasion 2.0

Joss Stone, Duffy and Natasha Bedingfield to confirm

 

[Iguana]

Joss Stone, Duffy and Natasha Bedingfield to confirm

PLEASE NO

 

[K.C.]

What about Jenny Frost?

 

[Rita]

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

 

[dUb]

Noughties Brit invasion 2.0

funky what the fuck

 

[straightorbroken]

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

 

[straightorbroken]

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

 

[funky]

funky what the fuck

I'm not saying I AGREED

 

[dUb]

I'm not saying I AGREED

Samantha Mumba is not British.

 

[Jark]

even if she was, we wouldn't claim her

 

[SystemAddict]

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

 

[funky]

Samantha Mumba is not British.

oh sorry I totally forgot

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

 

[Iguana]

POP QUIZ: What are all of Samantha Mumba's middle names?

That’s fine that you forgot

POP QUIZ: What are all of Samantha Mumba's middle names?

You’ll have to excuse the historical oppression-related sensitivity. 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

Otherwise I go full tiocfaidh ár lá

I only asked what her middle names were :emoji_cry:

 

[jivafox]

Not funky unintentionally restarting the TROUBLES.

Omero Tapestry Wilcox

 

[Iguana]

Omero Tapestry Wilcox

Actually not far off with Tapestry. She's Samantha Tamania Anne Cecilia Mumba.

 

[SDF]

Racist funky

it was bound to happen in his old age

 

[BoysForSeles]

Not funky unintentionally restarting the TROUBLES.

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

*wee joke*

 

[Loufoque]

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.

 

[funky]

That Katie Hopkins, isn’t she great, etc

 

[dUb]

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.

 

[VoR]

Pleasant enough but not a comeback.

OMG at this line from the press release though

As one of only five Irish acts to be nominated for a GRAMMY Award, Samantha has been one of Ireland’s biggest female exports for nearly two decades.

 

[SDF]

Bigger than Guinness
