I only listened to album previews... And well it's listenable but this album seems to be weaker than his previous works.
At the beginning you have a few hip-hop songs, then you have 2-3 ballads, and the remaining songs are mid-tempo. Close Encounter (slow version) is actually an acoustic version, and it sounds way better than the original one in my opinion.
Full album is now available worldwide on Spotify by the way!

Jolin leaving for Universal is not even official yet: we know thanks to a few articles and thanks to Jolin's fanclubs.
But neither Universal nor Jolin have made it official. It's just an "open secret" at the moment. It will be official when a press conference will be held, so we might get more info at that moment?
I have to admit I find it weird that she seems so eager to release this album this year, when before she was like "lol I'll release it whenever I want to I'm not in a hurry".
EDIT: aMEI wants to release her album this year for it to be eligible for the 2018 GMA... Maybe that's why Jolin wants so much to release it this year too.

If Elva's album is indeed coming out in November, we'll most likely get the title song in October.

I have to agree with this... Miss Elva was so great!

失眠 (Insomnia) from
Will Pan's new album is plagiarized from a song by K-Pop boyband Beast (now called Highlight it seems?). I couldn't find the song's title but it has been composed in 2014 by one of the members, Yong Jun-hyung.
Co-composer 房振剛 Jhen apologized and took all the blame. He's a fan of the group and "unconsciously" put these notes from Highlight's song into Will's song.

Will Pan is also sorry and full of regrets since he's the other composer of the song.
2 choices were given by the Korean label: 1. remove the song from illi / 2. pay copyright fees.
In the end insomnia will be removed from Will Pan's album (I guess physical copies of his album are also going to be removed from shelves then).
