I don't get the mumbling complaints, I can understand every word she's saying.

It's not really mumbling. That's basically how she speaks with her full accent. It's her patois. If you watch the documentary when she visits her country before starting the TTT era, you can barely understand a word when she speaks.

It's actually more of a faux-Jamaican than Bajan accent. Bajans don't speak like that.

Work sounds like an unfinished demo with vocals that sound like me when I'm trying to describe a song to friends I've only heard once

In the e-mail that came with "Work" for the radio stations, it mentioned ANTi was coming "in a few days". Could it be this Friday?

I can too. And I'm a sheltered white American. No one else has any excuse.

Is this what she is saying?

Honestly Work makes me excited for the full album, even though it's not necessarily the single everyone wanted. There are moments on Work that are brilliant.

The album's called ANTi, I dunno why y'all were expecting some kinda WFL radio fodder situation. I take this over generic pop tune any day.

And lol @ assigning any expectations toward a Zayn single. Is the kid actually talented beyond that forced crooner vocal tone?

calling Zayn untalented while at the same time trying to defend this new mediocre single from the most untalented rodent CTFU

Zinc's single is gonna be such a non-event. 1D had improved numbers without him, so clearly he was also a non-factor to their performance. I hope his solo career will have a chance with his pseudo-serious R&B appoach.

edit: #1 in over 50 countries. Thought AO ended her tbh.

As far as my ears can tell. She lays the patois on thick during the chorus. Admittedly, I can't make out the final line.

I stan Lana and already forgot Huntymoon. This is the tea.
Considering that she has the biggest second week drop for an album along with MDNA of all things, you are not alone.

Poor her stans, they even dared to drag Lady Gaga when the mess with High by the Beach happened. Oops!

Work is cute up until Drake begins his droning. He KILLS the song's flow. At least the Rhat's mumbling has some kind of rhythm. >_>

Agreed. I can listen to the song, but when he comes on I just want it to end. I guess I was hoping for another Only Girl (In The World), We Found Love, Love The Way You Lie, Where Have You Been, Diamonds, Stay or anything near the caliber of so many of her other wonderful songs. :( I don't think the ANTi era is for me.

Amber is a whore and stripper now but honestly did he forget that he wrote one of his best albums and cried on stage about her when she left him? Asshole

I like Work. Sure it isn't exactly bombastic nor does it really grab your attention but it is an enjoyable song. I like that Rihanna sounds more Barbados-ian on it.

YASSS Billboard, let them know! Carly Rae Jepsen Makes Another Case For Being Highly Underrated on 'Seth Meyers'

In case you missed it, Carly Rae Jepsen performed two songs off her Emotion album on Late Night With Seth Meyers Monday night, which only served to remind everyone just how solid a pop album that was, despite being largely eclipsed by Taylor Swift's 1989.

Singing "Run Away With Me" and "Your Type," Jepsen delivered just the kind of unshowy but melodically infectious performance that fans can point to when making the case that Swift's claim to current pop queendom isn't totally irrefutable. Jepsen's Late Night appearance also comes as part of her publicity buildup to her role as Frenchy in Grease: Live! which airs Sunday, Jan. 31 on Fox.

Summary of what is going on, please?

I'm on the side against Kanye before I know what is happening, tho.

WIz said something negative about Kanye West's new album being called waves, then he put KK on his twitter name. Kanye sees this and thinks he is referencing Kim for some reason and then goes off on him and eventually mentions Amber and the child Wiz and her have had together.

The Amber, quite rightly, weighs in.

I'll congratulate Kanye for exploring his body and his erogenous zones. No need to be ashamed, Kanye. Let Kim go deep if you want to.

BTW, Thanks, Fevaweva

That was a really tame thing for her to say tbh. The fact that they have a gag order suggests that she knows some shit that could really shift his wig.
