I know it seemed like Christmas came early already when the Nick Jonas sex gifs from Kingdom were slapped online, but no, scratch that — Santa officially delivered prematurely today, as news came that there’s a Bon Qui Qui album on the way. It’s called Gold Plated Dreams, and it’s out on January 13 from Warner Music Nashville.

If you’re not quite up on who Bon Qui Qui is, then start slapping yourself hard in the face over and over, because the now-eight-year-old “Bon Qui Qui At King Burger” sketch from MADtv is one of the holy grails of the Internet. Comedienne Anjelah Johnson-Reyes originated the character, and now that she’s got a record deal, she whipped together eight tracks — including such gems as “Oh No He Didn’t,” “No Boyfren,” Securrity” and “Bye” — for Gold Plated Dreams, the full tracklist for which you can catch below, along with her “I’m A Cut You” video and the original Bon Qui Qui skit from MADtv.

By the way, here’s the hottest part from the press release for this whole thing:

Since being fired from King Burger, Bon Qui Qui has worked many odd jobs and lost them all. In the search for her calling, the employee with no filter made it her life mission to dominate the hip-hop world and recorded her first rap single, “I’m a Cut You”. She’s still her ghetto fabulous self, but with a new career and a new weave.
