shades of cool is my favourite song of the year so far
It's no Ultraviolence but as a released song I guess I agree.

Brooklyn Baby will be the best song out of Ultraviolence I can feel it
Shades of Cool is a good song.
I am liking her rock musical direction this era. It suits her better than the sappy orchestral production that her stans are upset about being gone.
But where are you frequenting? The ATRL Lana stans are so possessive and sensitive.

o those were the stans I was referring to. Their reactions to West Coast were :biblio:.

Days Are God is still amazing.
This is a good symbol of Azealia Banks' career:

Shades of Cool will work much better within the context of a full album. She couldn't release an actual single-worthy song (such as West Coast) as a promo single, so what we get is just a random album track, which is why it's so weird to randomly listen to and probably why some people just don't 'get it'. (aside from the fact that they're ignorant)
I can't wait to hear Old Money, it's probably going to sample The Godfather Soundtrack and it will be glorious~ Also a Nina Simone cover! Lana going for the culture points.
Also, Days Are Gone is basically neck-and-neck with The Electric Lady for my AOTY 2013. ***flawless

Sounds about right.
I think Gaga's seen her last days as an A-Tier Pop act. It's all downhill from here.

Damn, that Cherry Pop number is catchy.
The moment when the chorus shifts in higher gear during the "when I look into his eyes..." and "never felt like this before...", it totally shits. Great production.
edit: and yes, the dancing gauys are fun, I like that their outfits and dance routine are silly.

So 6 years is 15 minutes in bizarro world? K
People cannot fucking handle her and I'm so entertained by it. The way the universe has decided to create this narrative about her career as if she's up there in her room at the W giving a fuck. After 6 years in the business people are still wanting to call her a fad because they're not ready to accept the fact that she's the closest thing to our generation's Michael Jackson and they would rather cast stones than give credit.
She's doing what she wants to be doing. She was on top of the world (a peak that only four other people in pop music can attest to seeing: Michael, Britney and Madonna) and instead of using that view to sit and lounge decided to make music that was her. Taking that risk is fucking balls. CONTINUING to take that risk takes balls. Very few people with her level of reach can read all these headlines and go on unphased. Most pop stars of her caliber would have buckled down, ran to Max Martin or slapped Jay-Z on their track in a desperate attempt to capture the zeitgeist again but she doesn't feel the need to. She feels just enough pressure to casually implement trends here and there but generally she's just her own muse. And that gets all my respect. I'd much rather see her make music that inspires her with varying levels of success than try to be something she's not.
People are going to be attacking her as long as she's not number 1, and it's because they actually think she deserves to be in that top post. But it takes more than just having a catchy hook to have a number 1 song. It takes calculation, projections, keeping eyes on trends. You could be lucky enough to make something that falls in line with the trends, but otherwise to find that formula for success you gotta have your ear to the ground. She's choosing not to listen right now, and there's nothing wrong with that.
In summary:
At least the music is good.

Wow at the Chandelier video. The girl is damn talented and has great presence.
She did a just as good job on Ellen, fits the music strangely well. 1000 Forms of Fear can not come soon enough.
I saw this when it was broadcast, but I love how since Sia is perfectly fine with knowing that she herself is not a physical performer, that she's content with having others relay her sentiments with theirs.
Rise Chanteuse, Rise!
I'm happy it's not Thirsty, as that has limited appeal; however, YDKWTD comes off as plain in comparison to the stone-groove smash wonder that is METEORITE!
Maybe YDKWTD will count as the official "1st" single a la "It's Like That," perform somewhat similarily and then she gets with the program and releases Meteorite, which will resuscitate MIAMTEC.

I know many of you hate the Ginger Gollum Ed Sheeran, but I've been bopping lately to this I See Fire remix and I figured I'd share.

I listened to some of his stuff on Spotify recently, and I didn't mind it.
