Still challenging myself in my own way. On my own terms. At my own pace.
I don't think I've ever been more excited to cover and release something. It's just so different compared to what I typically do and that's the intention. Showing my love for an album that changed my life and introduced me to rock music essentially. This is gonna be so fucking good.
See the vision?
You fucking with it?
Black Friday 2025.
And by fuck with it, I mean connect with it.
I'm not focused on chasing ghosts. If I continued to do that, I'd be doing that until I die. I'm also not focused on convincing people to listen. They either listen or they don't. I'm letting what I'm putting together speak louder than anything I could ever say.
I've stopped worrying about trying to best what I did last time. I only focus on putting my authentic self into what I do. It'll perfectly translate however it's meant to come across and the right people will fuck with it.
I'm holding onto my cover of Long Live and I'm not putting it out. I'm saving that one for whatever ends up being my last. That's such a perfect end and I'd hate to waste it as a loosie or as a cover on something that isn't my last one.
Love yourself. The good and the bad. No one is perfect. We all fuck up. We all have flaws. Don't use it against yourself. Embrace it. Without it, you wouldn't be you. It completes you. Both sides are needed to balance each other out. That's what my therapist taught me years ago.
In order for me to love myself and accept myself, I had to accept my flaws and shortcomings. I had to learn how to not self-deprecate even as a joke or reject the negative sides of myself. I had to embrace them because they are me and if I do that, I'm actively rejecting myself.
I do what I want and I tend to walk to the beat of my own drum. I tend to stay true to myself while knowing it could turn some people away from me. But I'd rather feel comfortable in my own skin. I want to look in the mirror and like what I see. That's what I truly care about.
Yeah, it got a sneaky unannounced remaster when the song got some newfound popularity because of TikTok earlier this year. Lol it's the only time I approve of a song going viral on TikTok because Imogen Heap deserves far more recognition than she gets. Truly an innovator and super slept on.
The best part of all this has been just not giving a fuck about whether people like what's coming out or not. Doing it for myself above all. Doing what I want and staying true to myself. With that mindset, the possibilities are endless.
I can't even begin to say how much these recent covers have been hitting for me on a personal level. Like, I don't care if they're popular or not. I'm going on a hell of a run right now and it's only started. This continues for as long as I want it to. I'm not done yet.
Look, I got spit at, slapped, kicked, but, bitch, I ate my lunch
Thеn I snapped, clicked, flipped, and dropped Pop the Trunk
Don't believe blood is thicker than water, that shit is a myth, bro
I say I'm taking a break after October and I'm releasing another covers project literally the month after. Make it make sense. You can't.
I'm never not a busy girl. That's my biggest problem. I don't know when to sit tf down.
Even though I've said I'm taking a break after October, I'm still gonna be a busy girl and working on shit. Gotta figure out what's set for 2027.
Lately, I've been going back into the vault and asking myself, "What haven't I re-recorded from 4 years ago that desperately needs that treatment?"
Do not put the weight of your bad decisions on to your friends and those you care about. It's unfair to those people and honestly just makes you a shitty friend.
18 covers. All 13 cuts on the standard edition, the 3 bonus cuts on the deluxe edition, 1 bonus track on a special edition version and then 1 cut that didn't make the album (which I already uploaded, but I'm re-recording it for this project).

The world is gonna see Jessica Valentine in her rap bag. I said the world was gonna see a side of me they've never seen before. I meant it. This ain't gonna be the new norm. It's a special occasion. I don't see myself doing this ever again after this. Enjoy it.
When I said October 31st was the reset I needed, I meant that. What's next is something I've never done or thought about doing. Until now. Black Friday 2025. 10 years since I listened to General Admission on Thanksgiving 2015. Now I'll be covering the entire album.
