This damn Becky G song is growing on me. Fuck!
I nearly forgot about this cover. Damn, Rih should rih-ly do more stuff in this vein.
I'd never guess it was him who produced the song! Can't wait for the EP, simply to see what Sia did with Brooke's sound.
If you liked those songs, give her first album a listen, Hyperventilating was the most popular single. Luckily in the end it all turned out well for Tami, she's managing Tessanne's career now. Speaking of Tessanne, I remember when I first heard her single "Hideaway", I was blown away by her voice, that woman deserves to be huge.
Nostalgia and nothing more.

I'm glad I have at least one other fave that is delivering :weeps:Thank god we have Lana.
West Coast video this week.
I didn't lie. Hew else is delivering on all fronts. Quality, numbers, musical evolution.
The United State of Lanamerica finally stanning hard

These are fakes, fwiw. A guy on popjustice edited together some clips that have been released to make them.
mess ;_;

Happy birthday Yado and Vitanimus!
Those Robyn tracks are amazing, as expected.
EDIT: Oh they're fakes??

I liked Daughter's album well enough, although I haven't felt compelled to return to it in many months. However, KEXP insists on playing their vile cover of the equally vile "Get Lucky" with disturbing regularity.
Yasssssssssssss I love their music. Love, Medicine, Tomorrow...
My only gripe with them is that their demos sound way better than the final album tracks.

If she gets in before Adele releases she has a real chance imo.

I agree. I could see this song becoming a huge radio hit.

Love is so beautiful, it just eclipses everything on their album. I don't think it's possible for them to top this song.
I think I might stan. ;___;

So this Advil Lavigne nonsense makes a music video that looks like a schizophrenic WW2-era racist's worst nightmare, while she saunters through some froyo shops too distracted by the bigness of her non-prescription glasses to remember the words to her own goddamn song
What a fucking shart

That song by itself made me a stan. I went from unaware to borderline obsessed in 10 minutes.
How lowly has Advil Vagine fallen tbh.

I love fetishizing popular imagery. The key is to adopt it in a way that tailors to your own musical strengths, and not to just emulate a trend or style that's been done and polished for years on end for the sake of emulating. This song sounds shit compared to K- or J-pop songs that capture that sound, but besides that, the imagery she's attempting to live in works because it comes from an authentic place to J- or K-pop audiences. This isn't authentic in the least. It's a shart, like I said.

I don't think the song is good, or the video. But I don't think that's enough to claim that Avril is being offensive.

Yeah, I'm on my third listen right now. Definitely going to buy this later.
I love Daughter though; they're great. Here are some similar artists, if you guys are interested:
Rhye - Open
Polica - Chain My Name
Warpaint - Stars

It's like if an artist came around who has said vocally, multiple times, that she looks up to Christina Aguilera more than anyone else in music, and all her performances had her wringing her arm up and down while growling notes and trying to force a run and riff into every bar. She didn't do it well, and just sounded messy. Would you be a fan of hers just because she attempted to emulate a style, or would you, like me, be pressed that she's making a new audience of fans who think she's completely authentic and unique?
Hello Kitty is abhorrent sonically and visually.
At least she gave us this song last year
When it's you and me
We don't need no one to tell us who to be
We'll keep turning up the radio
What if you and I
Just put up a middle finger to the sky
Let 'em know that we're still rock 'n roll

Who is this pretty girl, and how have I not heard of her before? This song is amazing.
Feels like forever since I last visited this thread to steal gifs. I am glad I decided to check though, that song was quite the discovery.
