Did the bit about the 2015 video where he says "if i stayed i would have killed her" re: an ex ever make headlines? I had never heard of it until now and it's totally horrifying. Fuck this dude. Hope he stays sober for the sake of himself and everyone around him but otherwise it's time to fuck off out of the public eye forever.
having never heard either exposing me or whoopty before this article im gonna go ahead and say there's about a 0% chance cj - or the producer, or literally anyone else in his orbit - was unaware of exposing me. i dont care about "ownership" in this case really but the beats are so similar and it really stretches credulity to believe it's not intentional
i think i just have a constitutional aversion to mendes and his ilk: mayer, coldplay, sheeran etc. cant stand any of it.
cant stand that 24kgolden x dababy song, i'm horrified by each new thing i learn about tiktok stars the "damelios" , and i think billboard is gonna have to change the methodology for the holiday season in the next couple years. i know the uk does weird xmas #1 stuff but i think the industry will start to get pissed off if #1 for 7 weeks a year are mariah and brenda lee.
yeah i dont agree with this assessment at all, starting with you including the deluxe tracks haha. i think the proper album is pretty distinct track to track even with it all meshing together, hard for me to think of lo mein and red bone and secure the bag as the same song for example
I'm torn on what happened to eternal atake this year, feels like it was robbed of some impact by covid hitting at roughly the same time, but also it was pretty apparent right away that it wasn't really a crowd pleasing pop album but something way weirder and more interesting.
i think what's really impressive about baby's 2020 is that he dominated so thoroughly and became the center of rap's solar system but he also is like, not interesting or charismatic at all lol. some great singles but the project as a whole...meh
didnt listen to much new stuff this year honestly. what i did love:
Lil Uzi Vert - Eternal Atake
Dogleg - Melee
Hum - Inlet
Jessie Ware - Spotlight
Jeff Rosenstock - No Dream
Lady Gaga - Chromatica
Caribou - Suddenly
Waxahatchee - Saint Cloud
Everyone's mad about the weeknd and fiona but i really think shutting my turn out of the rap AOTY category is fucking crazy and the biggest snub. i dont even like the album that much but it's absurd to not be in contention there, it's literally the year's biggest release and served as a coronation for a new superstar. ridiculous to not even get a nod.
I'm kinda bewildered by the whole thing. Gucci said he smoked Pookie's ashes to his face! Jeezy tried to be the bigger man but idk how that works if you sent the guys to kill gucci in the first place
1989 is not a primarily antonoff work, he only did a few songs. Lovers...fine? I listened to it once thought it was nice and then never felt like listening to it again. Ditto folklore, which was also, as noted in this article, heavily dessner. Melodrama is basically the only thing he’s helmed that I think is an unqualified triumph.
Thought this was pretty good! First few songs were really engaging but it sagged in the middle before picking up again with rockstar chains. uzi seems a more natual partner for future than almost any of his other collaborators
