New Bernadette Cooper album? Could it really be true? Finally?? According to her Twitter page, her album Last Diva on Earth drops next week. I hope this is true. Love me some Bernadette! |

Remember that time that BC came into the org to hype that flop single.Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair. RIP Nick. - Pee Wee Herman |

"Fashion Girl"....new single from the album!
Fashion Girl by Bernadette Cooper
I love this song but it's not really new. This was one of the songs that was supposed to be on
Klymaxx official last album a few years back ago or so when the band was previewing songs on
their Facebook page. It sounded like Fenderella's vocals were on the original version. The album
was never released and it seems as though as BC is moving on with other vocalists. I'm surprised
she didn't get Pennye Ford to sing lead on the song. She had been working with Bernadette a lot previously. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint |

thanks for the info.I would have really liked to hear a 'final' Klymaxx album. |

FASHION GIRL is kind of disappointing but I AM YOUR DIVA SAVIOR in its 36:05 minute long nonstop LGBT REMIX is the shit! - this is some true BernaDette Funk! Brings back the memories of the good old BC/KL/MX days without sounding boring. Love it! Btw, is she a Lesbian? Not that it matters to me, just being curious and big probs to her for supporting the gay community, anyway!!!!!

this reads like the soundtrack for one of these devoted drag queens. Absolutely adorable! I think, I like the title "The Landing Of The Heteros" or is it "Haters" best! Sorry but my eyes are bad and somehow blinded by so much dark color. You're sure this is not taken from R U Paul's latest? Really? I love me some Bernadette Cooper, always did, always will! Can we have a certain release-date for this, please?

No sign of BernaDette's Diva Epos yet, instead we have a brand new single from KlymaXX (My Way This Time). I believe, it is their very first release since??? And like with Con Funk Shun's latest, it sounds so fuckin dated, that I am seriously wondering if this is recorded for a RHTO (rest home tour only)?! Btw, same goes for Club Nouveau and their comeback album. Ugh! To be honest, before i would release crap like this, I would lock myself away and listen to my old records until I'm healed respectively the Funk has kissed me alive. Word!

I'm disappointed her album still hasn't dropped. I wonder what the hold up is? Now, where did you hear a new (old) Klymaxx track? I'd be interested in hearing it. |

Club Nouveau released the worst comeback album for an old school artist I've ever heard. Don't laugh at my funk

I haven't heard the Club Nouveau album and I don't think I want to 
the new Con Funk Shun album is horrible.A funk band doing a funkless album?! That's inexcusable.
I guess Bernadette is gonna be the one to show 'em how it's done.I like what I've heard so far. |

it's available on itunes since June 03, 2015, and the track is called MY WAY THIS TIME feat. Cheryl Cooley. It's a slightly different version of their 2007 release (Klymaxx presents unruley Cooley)! However, disappointing stuff overall, but the ladies seem to be very proud of that tune bringing it out to us every once in a while or it's the only song they have in store right now?!

See it positive! Listen to it in times of need, when you wanna fall asleep within 5 minutes f.e. Its impact on your brain will be purely psychological/biological w/o any chemical side effects. |

the new album drops on June 19
you can already listen to it in full and for free via BernaDette's soundcloud page. It's a very housey affair with lots of spoken words, intros, outros etc. ... Some may say, it's hard to get into .... almost tempted to say it is kind of "wild", but me, I guess I like it. Sure, it's milestones away from her classic KlymaXX / MaDame X period. However, it is still fun to listen to and the production is oh so crisp! |

2 more listens and I am totally hooked of Last Divaahhhhh! What an adventurous, spicy musical ride we have here. It is definitely an ALBUM, and recorded as such. Means, if possible, dont pick out certain tracks, play it non-stop! Only then you realize its true finesse - the constant switching of beats from house to dance to funk to hip-hop to slow groove ... Good job BernaDette! Think I call you BernaBetta from now on ... |
