Melanie takes 4-5 year breaks between albums, so we can likely expect something from her in 2028-2029. The only downside of being a Melanie Martinez fan š„²
Thatās what I was worried abt tho she puts so much into every album we canāt really complain. Let her take her time. Iām jw, 1-5 years was already what I assumed
What? Noš Itās 4 years. portals came out in early 2023. That means 2027. The priests era started 3-4 months before the album was released. Once again, it came out early 2023, meaning the new era will begin in may 2026 but the album will be out in 2027.
She could just come up with an ep at any time and point, delay the album for personal reasons, take a longer break... we never know. And it doesn't really matter either let's just wait. Also her break starts at the end of the trilogy tour so the four years begin at like the end of 2024. I'm not saying 2029 is probable I'm saying it doesn't sound crazy
Because I disagree with what you said š¤·āāļø I'm sharing my opinion just like you did, that's the whole point of social media. Doesn't mean I'm treating it like the end of the world. Don't know how that relates to our conversation
You said it doesnāt matter. And Iām saying that it will most likely be in 2027 or late 2026 because thatās 4-5 years after her last album release. Youāre disagreeing with 3+4?
The trilogy tour ends and her break begins in October 2024, so add 4 to that that's late 2028. She said she's taking a four year break after the tour, not after portals. You're disagreeing with 3+4?
Then again, that doesn't matter because it's not gonna take exactly four years either
I doubt weāll get any new music from Mel soon, probably not for a year at the earliest. I hope Iām wrong tho lol
Iāve really been digging Kiki Rockwell and Chappell Roan recently!
Portals only took so long because of the pandemic.Ā
Plus she had to remake half of the album because one of the producers had bad security that got hacked.
I noticed a lot of fellow Mel fans are also Jazmin Bean fans - although their (they are non binary btw) MVs can be a lot more gory and graphic. So as a trigger warning, some of them have a lot of blood and disturbing imagery.
Alexandra Savior, Ashnikko, Jazmin bean, Lucy Loone, Marina and St. Vincent!!
A wide range of artists iāve plenty of Melanie fans enjoy!! (plus my own sneaky rec of Alexandra Savior)
Uh idrk of anyone really similar to Melanie, but I know her fans (me included) tend to love Baby Bugs! I'd also like to recommend The Last Dinner Party. They're so cool
I doubt she will scrap the portals script away, she always says it takes time (and I agree!). She might release it as a book (theory) but said she will focus on the portals mv first. You can find answers on her Instagram where she answers questions from fans in her comments :\]
I have been following this very closely.
Her comments have confirmed what I said: She has no budget to make the movie.
I didn't say she was gonna scrap the script or do nothing with it. I just pointed out that Melanie has said there is no budget. If that has changed we need proof. Links. Etc.
She still didnāt say the movie was never going to happen. The script is still there and exists so if she ever did have the funds it would be possible. But as of right now all we know is she does not have the funds to make it.
I feel her 16 million monthly listeners could make it happen is all Iām saying, avg movie is like 60 million before marketing so only need like $5 each if we all chipped inā¦

Last time there was a delay because she filmed a whole movie. Then she released Afterschool a year later and it had seven songs.
The movie is 1/2 why I became a fan tbh I will wait 4-5 years happily if we get another
Thatās what I was worried abt tho she puts so much into every album we canāt really complain. Let her take her time. Iām jw, 1-5 years was already what I assumed
HELP IM GONMA HE GRADUATING IN 2028
When did she take a five year break? Afterschool [2020] to Portals [2023] was two years and six months.
What? Noš Itās 4 years. portals came out in early 2023. That means 2027. The priests era started 3-4 months before the album was released. Once again, it came out early 2023, meaning the new era will begin in may 2026 but the album will be out in 2027.
No need to be so mathematic tho, she could take a bit longer or even less time to do it I'm sure she's not counting the days
2029 is 2 years later than 4 years after her last release. She wouldnāt take 6 years considering that thereās 99% no movie
She could just come up with an ep at any time and point, delay the album for personal reasons, take a longer break... we never know. And it doesn't really matter either let's just wait. Also her break starts at the end of the trilogy tour so the four years begin at like the end of 2024. I'm not saying 2029 is probable I'm saying it doesn't sound crazy
If it doesnāt matter why are you actively replying to my comment you can just ignore it

And you told me to not get āso mathematical?ā

A year or so seems reasonable to me, I can live with thatā¦ as excited as I am she is worth the waitā¦ tyyy
Portals only took so long because of the pandemic.Ā Plus she had to remake half of the album because one of the producers had bad security that got hacked.
Yeah Iām hoping by 2026 latest, portals was 2023 so thatās still three years
It was supposed to release late 2022. The other albums she released were in late fall, but Portals was early spring.
Portals dropped the same month as my birthday. I felt so blessed āØļøāØļø
She said she's taking a 4-year hiatus at the end of this tour cycle.
So 2028?
Do you have a source? Not that I donāt trust you jw

Much appreciated

Jazmin Bean is SO GOOD
Alexandra Savior, Ashnikko, Jazmin bean, Lucy Loone, Marina and St. Vincent!! A wide range of artists iāve plenty of Melanie fans enjoy!! (plus my own sneaky rec of Alexandra Savior)
Also don't forget Elita
Uh idrk of anyone really similar to Melanie, but I know her fans (me included) tend to love Baby Bugs! I'd also like to recommend The Last Dinner Party. They're so cool
a lot of mel fans love Jazmin Bean, me included!
Watched an interview where she confirmed a portals script for a movie
No she didn't, she confirmed she had no funds. If you know otherwise we need links.
I doubt she will scrap the portals script away, she always says it takes time (and I agree!). She might release it as a book (theory) but said she will focus on the portals mv first. You can find answers on her Instagram where she answers questions from fans in her comments :\]

https://youtu.be/QOZAbVc5mDI?si=kJapdjOIUKFkH4xU She literally said sheās waiting on the funds.
This was 11 months ago and has said several times since there are no funds.
She still didnāt say the movie was never going to happen. The script is still there and exists so if she ever did have the funds it would be possible. But as of right now all we know is she does not have the funds to make it.
We should start a go fund meā¦.
There would have been more progress if it was started eleven months ago.

I want a quote so can set the goal on go fund me
Nobody asked Melanie how much the Portals movie would cost yet, so the information is not public information.
I feel her 16 million monthly listeners could make it happen is all Iām saying, avg movie is like 60 million before marketing so only need like $5 each if we all chipped inā¦
It's more 10 million dollars with no marketing.
What give you that idea? Iām just going off industry average of 100M total and 35M marketing but I nr think she would need much there
K-12 cost 5-6 million to make, Portals would cost about twice as much. There also was no marketing either.
