BEYONCÉ RETURNS: POPGAF OT XIII
- Thread starter Garrett Hawke
- Start date
I urge you to listen to RAYE SECOND EP if you still haven't given it a spin already.
(Click ha face!)
It is everything you wish your faves would do. Contemporary sound that sounds fresh, instead of re-branded, tired, and tested sounds processed through cookie-cutter, run-of-the-mill stile of simplicity of the well known manufactured and soulless POP production made to appease the brain-dead, deaf masses.
It doesn't overstay it's welcome and it is cohesive and tight piece of work.
The highlights for me are Shh, with its key changes and dark beats, and Distraction with blissful layered vocals that hit deep. I, U, Us is the leading single and the music video was directed by Charli XCX.

Nope, quality takes time.
Your avatar killed me. asdfghjkl;'
There is a lot of great music out there than I can use while waiting for ha quality to be released so I am not that pressed about her taking her sweet time making this and will only get annoyed if her 2nd album ends up being mediocre like countless 2nd albums tend to be for some reason.
Any of you gave up?
Now, if only I had some news from Ed Sheeran that would be nice =3

The same reviews that are giving the lates Frank Ocean a 90 metacritic score? One can't trust sales or reviews in this day and age.
RealMusic® + Penis + The Gay Agenda seems to have influenced the score, iamdisgusted.gif
LMAO only The NYT review was a bit harsh on Britney. They didn't talk much about the music itself, they were talking about Britney herself, because she's 34 and singing about sex. Judge an album by the body of work, not the artist singing it or their reputation. I wouldn't expect less from a white middle aged sexist straight man to be honest. Objectivity shouldn't be optional.
Also NYT gave Anti the same score...
Frank Ocean deserves the praise. Any album that has songs like "Nikes", "Self Control" & "Futura Free" is worthy of the acclaim.
Also, Britney isn't getting dragged for just singing about sex. She's getting dragged because after 18 years of career, countless life experiences and milestones, it seems that's all she can "sing" about.

Now you want to say you're sorry
Now you want to call me crying
Now you gotta see me wildin'
Now I'm the one that's lying
And I don't feel bad about it
It's exactly what you get
Stop interrupting my grinding

As well as what Nasser said, like 90% of mainstream music is about love, sex or heartbreak so its hardly a unique issue with Britney.
Yes she's gone through a lot but being sectioned, losing custody of her kids and probably close to losing her life is maybe something she's put in her past and wants to keep it that way.

got half way through frank's album and the only thing of note is the last bit of Nights. the rest just kinda blends into moaning. Will give it a proper listen because of all the praise but I'm not seeing the fuss at the moment.
on the flip side I was singing britney so much in the car I nearly crashed. ha power

Nikes, Solo and White Ferrari are godlike.
Girls, give it a listen (a proper one this time). The more you listen to Blonde, the better it gets.
Any of you gave up?
I knew evil wouldn't die so easily.

People are being extra when it comes to Lorde. I mean, it's not like she released an album in 2008, it was only three years ago, and she released a couple of songs since and featured on Disclosure's last album. Jeez

He said something about this fall, last year in December. So hopefully a single by November and maybe a release in February.

This actually a topic I want to discuss. How many you guys stream vs buy album. Personally I stream everything, except for when it is an artist I really like, however I think this might be the first year in a long time where I haven't bought any albums.
I only buy albums from my faves

Side B is so good. Carla came again.

I just recently started streaming, with Apple Music. Like you, I would still buy a few albums here and there, but it seems less and less likely for me to continue. I really held off on streaming because I felt once you started, you really can't stop. If you do your whole music collection since joining disappears. I probably spend about the same amount though. On the other hand I listen to a lot of stuff I would never have bought before, so there's that.

After listening to EMOTION B Sides like 4 times in a row I can confidently say that this collection of rihjects has managed to become THE Pop eXperience of 2016.
Cry, Higher and First Time are currently my Holy Trinity but is so hard to choose when I get to Roses chorus or Carlisus sweet voice starts licking my inner ear during Fever.
