More Than A Year Later…

Effy Giraffe has been retired from music since 2014 (2015 is you count her greatest hits release). Unfortunately, we stopped making frequent posts about her seeing as she was working on nothing new– besides her unreleased/cancelled reality series.

So we stepped away from the blog in 2017. A little more than a year ago. But now we are back. Why you might ask? Well we have reason to believe Effy Giraffe is readying her first comeback album. An exclusive source tells us,

Effy has reached out to a number of new producers, in hopes that she can take her career a step further than ever before. She has also been looking into new background vocalists since her daughter is no longer with us.

It has all been a lot of talk for now. I heard she even has been looking into a physical release this time around.

Why after comeback after three years? We have an idea. 2019 marks 10 years Effy Giraffe has been in the music business (with the debut of her first release I Wanna Die). 10 years is pretty big, so a comeback wouldn’t be a surprise.

Although it might be stretch, we are thinking Effy might be planning to re-release her now unreleased debut EP with brand new songs. Perhaps a full on reinvention of a debut that went under the radar.

Who knows what to expect. But I think it’s safe to say… she’s coming back!

‘In The Life of Effy Giraffe’ Exclusive: Effy DID HAVE WORK DONE

Hello everybody! We are back sharing an exclusive story with you all! Effy Giraffe’s (self proclaimed) popular series will apparently be making its debut this year. So far not much is known about the show, but slowly teasers and promos have been coming in.

A month ago, Effy released the above picture teasing a possible cosmetic surgery she might have had. The ‘did she or didn’t she have surgery’ tease is an interesting gimmick to get you watching– but you don’t actually have to watch, because we HAVE THE ANSWER.

Thursday night, Effy released the following picture on her Instagram page:

The photo is of Effy being interviewed for the show, but where is she? She is in a large green hat, which is covering her face and body entirely.

Why could she be doing this? Well. It turns out Effy DID in fact have surgery. Her reasons for doing so are unknown, and any pictures of her transition are not yet available (except for the above teaser shots).

 

What do  you think?

‘F*** Me Mr. President’ Almost Got Re-Released This Month

Effy’s iconic 2012 single F*** Me Mr. President almost made an unexpected return this year!

In 2015 the song was remastered for her greatest hits album, so many are wondering why would we need it to be reissued again?

Well, Effy Giraffe has been a big supporter of president-elect Donald Trump since he first announced his run. She was very nervous on election night. Effy tells us, 

I was on the edge of my seat, just waiting to see if Trump won. I was hopeful! Trump and I had a brief sexual relationship back in the day. He’s a great man!

F*** Me Mr. President can now officially be dedicated to Trump. She tells us

F*** Me Mr. President was a song written about Bill Clinton, dedicated to Barrack Obama, and now officially dedicated to Donald Trump!

About reissuing the iconic track, Effy states:

I almost re-released the song. It would have only made its debut if Hillary won the election. 

I re-recorded the track, titling it Fuck Me Madam President, and was set to release it if Hillary won. The song won’t see the light of day but it was a great cut!

What so you think about that?!

In The Life of Effy Giraffe IS NOT Effy’s TV Show…

Everybody is discussing Effy Giraffe’s upcoming reality series In The Life of Effy Giraffe. The show will make it’s official debut next year! Many have wondered, will we get more than one season? Effy answered her faces on social media, stating she wasn’t sure. She’s open to it, but it seems to be a one shot kind of deal. 

So, why the uncertainty about continuing the show? Well it’s simple. It’s not really her show. We spoke with a producer of the series who told us exclusively:

Many seem to think In The Life of Effy Giraffe is Effy’s show, when really it isn’t. Effy Giraffe is the star of OUR In ‘The Life of’ reality series. Each series will focus on a different persons life. 

Naturally, we had a few questions so here they are in this exclusive behind the scenes interview with the producer:

Why and how did you choose Effy as your focus for the first season?

The show actually isn’t split into seasons. Each will be split as a series. We had our eye on Effy. She’s a retired musician, and honestly her popularity was really non existent. We chose her in hopes to perhaps get her name out there. 

Why not focus on someone with a greater popularity level?

Well we have a person in mind for our next series who is more well known! But Effy’s co-star actually has a pretty large following  so I think that helped us settle into creating the show with Effy had the lead. 

How many episodes will each series have?

Episodes will vary. The first series will have 18 episodes. Anything thereafter won’t be decided until production. 

Would you ever bring back the show for a In The Life of Effy Giraffe II?

If the show does well we told Effy it would be a possibility but not until after a few different series’. Perhaps a revival in 2020 we’re thinking. Who knows! We’ve even penned a few titles that could work:

In The Life of Effy Giraffe: The Bitch Giraffe is Back

In The Life of Effy Giraffe: III Years Later

Still…In The Life of Effy Giraffe

In The Life of Effy Giraffe… Again

Seems like there has been a lot of thought into this?

Yes and no. We had it planned for a 2020 return but not it’s just all up in the air right now

Who else would return?

Can’t quite reveal that. Some fresh faces, some old flames, new flames. A lot can happen in three years. Honestly anybody who is in Effy’s life in that point of time will be featured on the show. 

Well there you have it! Effy’s show will only get one season (series) and a possibly 2020 revival season. 

News// Effy Giraffe Releasing A New Song This Month Limited To A FEW Countries

 

Effy Giraffe will officially be releasing a new song! That’s right! We just received some interesting information. A brand new song was registered under Effy’s name. The track, expected to drop no later than next week, is titled Toy Soldier.

Unfortunately, the song won’t be released worldwide. We aren’t sure exactly what areas will be lucky enough to be able to buy/stream the track BUT we do know those in The United States and The United Kingdom will NOT be receiving this brand new track.

Rumor has it Effy is trying to branch away from the united states and only release music to areas that stream her music the most. But we have the exclusive reason why you might not get a chance to hear the new track:

 

Toy Soldier could very well be a song cover, without having rights to distribute the song some countries are most likely being excluded.

 

Either way, it’s coming! Could this be a lead single to an upcoming album!? Who knows!

News// Effy Giraffe Returns To Music OFFICIALLY In 2017

We have been very quiet lately because Effy Giraffe hasn’t revealed any details about anything. Nothing new with In The Life of Effy Giraffe and nothing new in her personal life. Why is this? Effy is reportedly putting the finishing touches on her upcoming reality series releasing this year, but what else is keeping her so busy? Well we have new details on what that might be…. A NEW ALBUM.

That’s right. Effy Giraffe will be returning to music in 2017 according to her old BandCamp website. A fan stumbled upon the site a few days ago where a new design is shown:

The last time Effy’s BandCamp account was used was when she released her I Love Charles Manson Single in 2014. It has since been updated promoting something called Forbidden Me. We didn’t want to jump to any conclusions  so we decided to investigate the site further, and get this. BandCamp is exclusively offering a pre-order for the ALBUMS! Yes, ALBUMS!!

Effy will be releasing two versions of Forbidden Me. A standard version and a deluxe version. Here is the details:

Forbidden Me: Standard Edition ($9.99)

Forbidden Me will be Effy’s big return to music. The album took two years in the making and will officially be rolling out April 12, 2017 (release date subject to change). The standard edition will consist of 9 tracks (7 original and 2 covers!) Take a look at the tracklist so far:

01. Show Me
02. Moving On
03. Billionaire (Made of Money II)
04. What Do You Want?
05. FALLINLOVE2NIGHT (ft. The Moment)
06. TBA
07. In The Air Tonight
08. TBA
09. TBA

The album introduces a sound that Effy has never produced previously. It’s a mixture of the pop/dubstep you’ve all grown to love, but with all new vocal effects that’ll leave you speechless. Effy is back and stronger than ever!!

Forbidden Me: Deluxe Edition ($14.99)

The deluxe edition will feature 6 more songs vs. the standard edition, none of them have been revealed or complete quite yet:

01. Show Me
02. Moving On
03. Billionaire (Made of Money II)
04. What Do You Want?
05. FALLINLOVE2NIGHT (ft. The Moment)
06. TBA
07. In The Air Tonight
08. TBA
09. TBA
10. TBA
11. TBA
12. TBA
13. TBA
14. TBA
15. TBA

This deluxe editions seems to be limited. Only 1,000 copies are available and can only be purchased on BandCamp. It’s unknown as of yet if both versions will be streamable. We reached out to Effy but she hasn’t answered quite yet.

This is certainly interesting! According to the tracklist there will be a sequel to Made of Money titled Billionaire. This would be an interesting move, considering Made of Money was a trending song from her EFFY era. Will Billionaire be a rap song? It doesn’t seem like it will be.

In our opinion they should have made a sequel to a more popular track — I Love Charles Manson for example?

WHO’S EXCITED FOR NEW EFFY!!!

News// Effy Is Readying New Album ‘Effy Giraffe & Friends’ + Exclusive Details

Effy Giraffe might have retired, but that isn’t stopping her from creating a new artist name. This time, she wants to start a new legacy.

Effy has been known to previously kick start a lot of musical careers– for instance she kick started Jamiya’s by featuring her in a variety of songs (including hit single Hear Me and a number of tracks from EFFY). Effy apparently loves working with other artists and helping them become known. Effy previously took to her website to say:

“I love helping boosting other artist’s careers. I remember starting out I had nobody. So having Jamiya on ‘Hear Me’ and The Moment on ‘Desire’ really helped them and their talent even helped me out.”

We decided to talk to Effy about something she’s planning titled ‘Effy Giraffe & Friends’.

FanSite: It’s so great you’ve decided to chat with us today. We know you haven’t been a huge fan of our blog previously, so it means a lot it us.

Effy Giraffe: Well you know it’s always fun doing interviews and since you guys get a lot of views I figured why not bring some truth to your blog by doing an interview.

FS: So tell us about Effy Giraffe & Friends. Is it an album? A new band name? what is it?

EG: It’s a bit of both. It’s a new artist name and a new full length album. ‘Effy Giraffe’ is all done. This is something completely separate and should not be compared to my original stuff. I am starting a new era with some great friends.

FS: Will Jamiya be on the album?

EG: Honestly, I thought about it. But I want to move in a different direction. I want to introduce brand new faces. My relationship with Jamiya no longer exists. Unfortunately, there was a terrible miscommunication the last time be collaborated so we know longer talk. Even if we did talk, I want to introduce new faces. NOBODY I’ve worked with before.

FS: What will be on the album? What kind of songs?

EG: No original songs. Everything will be covers! Every cover will feature myself on vocals along with a guest. I love doing song covers and I feel like it’ll be awesome!

FS: Do you know when the first single will release?

EG: I have no idea yet!! In time we’ll see.

FS: How many singles will the album have?

EG: I’m thinking at least three? And then a fourth after the album releases? Who knows yet!

FS: When do you predict the album will be available for sale?

EG: The album actually won’t be for sale. Since I am covering A LOT of songs I sadly won’t have the rights to distribute them for purchase. INSTEAD the album will be available for FREE and will be streamable on Youtube. Making albums available for free is how I started out back in 2009 all the way through 2011. Late 2011 was actually the first time I ever distributed music for sale as an artist. So I’m technically following my original style of releasing.

FS: Will you guys be covering any Effy Giraffe originals?

EG: Anything IS possible this early in the project, but I have to say I don’t think so. I want to move away from Effy Giraffe entirely.

FS: How many albums do you think you’ll be doing?

EG: That’s a tough question. Let us put out the first one and we’ll see about doing another.

FS: Well that will be all for now. Thanks for chatting with us!

EG: Anyime!
