RuPaul RuVeals The Covergurlz 2 Album

So we don't have a premier date for the seventh season of RuPaul's Drag Race but we do have the release date for a completely frivolous and unwarranted album. By that, I mean that yet again we are getting an entire album of songs by girls we barely know (so far) covering some of Ru's best (and most unknown?) songs. Let's hear it for Covergurlz 2. Yes. They just added "2" to the end.

All shade aside, I am in love with this cover. It's simple, and Ru looks very nice. If only we were getting Ru on the vocals. Instead we have a large listing of tracks for the new season of girls, which do I need to mention again has no premier date. I guess they are hoping that this will tide us over until they get their issues sorted out behind the scenes.

As much as I want to dislike this work, I have to say that it really does set some of the girls ahead from the gate. Unfortunately, other than garnering extra fans, this will not really do anything for them. The show (minus the finale/reunion) has already been filmed. Everything has been said and done for a while, so even if you fall in love with a contestant via this release, it won't change anything.

That being said, some of these girls really can sing. A couple of surprises (in a good way) are Max, Ginger Minj, and Tempest Dujour. This is of course only from the previews. The full album hits digital stores February 3rd. The list is as follows:

01. New York City Beat (Michelle Visage)
02. Throw Ya Hands Up (Kennedy Davenport
03. Freaky Money (Jasmine Masters)
04. Can I Get An Amen (Kasha Davis)
05. Drop That Pimp (Violet Chachki and Miles Davis Moody)
06. Let The Music Play (Ginger Minj)
07. Sweet Kandy of Mine (Kandy Ho)
08. Drag U (Katya)
09. Hey Booty (Pearl and Miles Davis Moody)
10. Geronimo (Trixie Mattel)
11. The Beginning (Jaidynn Diore Fierce)
12. Call Me Starrbooty (Sasha Belle)
13. Dance With U (MAX)
14. Drag Race Theme (Miss Fame)
15. Sissy That Walk (Tempest Dujour)
16. Hollywood U.S.A. (The PitCrew)

Yeah. The PitCrew has it's own song. We will figure this mess all out on February 3. No iTunes preorder, but it is up on Amazon if you wish to have it previewed.
