Most of the songs are good and some are great, but two of the singles(7 rings and Break Up) are early frontrunners for worst pop songs of the year for me, and drag the album down to the point I'd say it's a bad album despite liking every other song.
does anyone find it disconcerting for someone whose biggest hit is a song about the commodification of black people and culture to be very literally turned into a commodity?
also, coming from someone who is in the this album is pretty bad(especially the last two singles) camp, even if you don't like a lot of modern teen pop stuff you don't have to be a complete anti-pop dick about it. It's pretty easy to say "I don't enjoy a lot of modern pop songwriting trends and production. I find it can be dull and repetitive," without having to make broad statements about a whole type of music and audience.
"break up" is a song I'm not into that sounds like a joke song from some celebrity satire show I'd probably be into
alexa play "Good Riddance(Time of Your Life)"
I wonder if part of the increased restraints and expectations had to do with how long the wait between albums has been. She's been with them for so long Im wondering why things changed or if they were always like this to her.
This is beautiful and I wish that they had given Rebecca Sugar lyrics
I don't really love the band tbh, but I liked the last PATD video you picked. However, this PATD video was lame. Well made, but like the least fun way to use that "we can make someone walk up a wall" effect.
Something talk me into liking Empress Of. I've tried getting into her first album a few times and I don't mind it and do think it's definitely well made, but nothing ever grabs me. I don't ever feel a lot of personality of anything to hook me, just pretty well crafted modern indie pop music that kinda goes in one ear and out the other.
the gays are satisfied and ready to cry
I still enjoy her music and will probably continue too, but is anyone really surprised that someone raised in privilege(at least from what I know) and whose never suffered the effects of being lower class might abandon their ideals at the drop of the hat?
I was really hoping for the 2k18 version of We Didn't Start The Fire and won't be satisfied till I get that
"Stevie Nicks Muttering Under Her Breath When Stuck In Traffic" or GTFO
With each passing day, it's getting harder and harder not to see Grimes as the patron saint of "I'm not like other girls"
That vocal effect feels so 1997 to me, but in a good way
also, off subject, I can't stand Bebe Rexha voice
I'm glad they're counteracting the criticism of "maybe don't have a bunch of straight men write your bisexual women song" with a vaguely leering video directed by *checks credits* another straight dude!
I know PT makes fun of drakes sick producer and possible kid, but i think the meanest part is him making fun of drake's dad for wearing Steve Harvey suits.
It's 2018 and our biggest celebrity feud is three people who all suck. approps
I feel dread and he's alright, or at least alive.
I definitely would be into some sort've long form article or something about the creative relationship between Donald Glover and Hiro Murai if you guys wanna make that
So, this is an utter shit show for Kanye, and it should be, but I have one question: Does T.I. end up looking good for doing this? On one hand, he comes off sounding way smarter and more empathetic. On the other hand, the best move may have been to just say no to Kanye. Don't feed into his bullshit.
I like imagining someone listening to Garden of Delete and going "Usher would sound great on this" almost as much as i like imagining how great Usher would sound on Garden of Delete

FJM always looks like the first caveman to discover Kombucha
just bootleg his new album and paypal Amber Rose, or a charity the amount
way too many people in my class went to Coachella last weekend(art majors have rich parents, who knew) and yeah, their excitement about it was so weirdly lifeless. Also, more than a few of them literally just saw Beyonce, and maybe Tyler, and then spent the rest of the weekend wandering around high on something or another. Coachella would 10 times better it seems if the people putting it on and the people going to it weren't the worst
Also also I hope there’s a song on the cudi album called “hey, you got coke in my lexapro!”
Also i really hope he finally calls an album Turbographix 16
I cant wait to hear it sometime in january
After the loose and overstuffed(but still good) TLOP, a (hopefully) short and tighr release sounds amazing.
"I Took Ayahuasca and All I Got Was This Fucking T-shirt"
That teaser kinda looks like what would happen if you had to make a missy elliott video with only 20 dollars and a few hours
This isn't just the Taylor Swift video I'm complaining about but I really get bugged by stuff where the narrative is "rich and famous person whose life has been entirely built around achieving and maintaining being rich and famous deep down really just wants to be regular and not famous. Being famous and/or rich can be really tough you guys!"
this is way better than anything off his last album(which was already very good). less lyrics james, more abstract moaning
Look, I can understand respecting the music video for "Look What You Made Me Do" despite the song being trash, but the "End Game" video is like a crash course in how to do nothing with a huge budget. and on how to overuse lens flares.
