She’s releasing a cover album by Christmas bc COCC has been delayed until past March at the very earliest (most likely June/July since it’ll be 90days after March 5th

[plastiscguy]

I hope it has some solo songs... No offense to Nikki (whoever she is) but if that's not the case, i'll be expecting some solo edits on YouTube 

[Nobody]

I’m assuming she’s referring to songs that are listed in the Great American songbook! So, songs that have been covered by so many American legends throughout history! 
Here’s a link to see if there are any songs you recognize! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_American_Songbook
