    what he say

    To summarize:

    • the singles gave him the feeling that Crash was going to be a send-up of 80s music (???)

    • he thinks Crash "marks a departure from the Vroom Vroom/Pop 2 Charli era" which he prefers (as if her self-titled and Number 1 Angel aren't littered with bunch of more traditional/trendy sounding pop jams)

    • goes on a tangent about Charli "desires to release an album that does very well commercially" — and he says "good ones and beg for you have done huge numbers, but not 3 or 4 times her previous singles" (this is supposed to be a criticism, somehow — also no mention of Crash being her last contractual album which means the label is going to market the s*** out of it to shoot for the most commercial success as possible)

    • says two of the songs on the album are rip offs of famous New Order singles

    • charli tries and fails to make rihanna-esque music

    • says New Shapes chorus is unpleasant to listen, and that the title track is headache inducing (and the closing guitar solo is "truly awful"

    • thinks is among her worst work lyrically

    • "Charli and her producers toss on loads of kooky synthesizers and sound effects. And toward the end we get all of these weird beat switch-ups and vocal manipulations that sounds like a mess compared to her use of those elements in previous albums" (????)

    • Constant Repeat and Move Me were more of what he was expecting from her but "aren't as fun or exciting" as her older stuff

    • when describing Used to Know Me: "the whole thing sounds the way I think ill-fitting vintage clothing looks" (3 million subscribers)

    • favorite songs are Baby, Every Rule, and Yuck — the rest of album is forgettable and hasn't stuck with him at all

    My brother had a ton of those "Movie Maniacs" figures from the late 90s (?) and all of them were really high quality s*** IIRC. He had ones of pumpkinhead, freddy, leatherface, jason, norman bates, etc...

    I remember the norman bates one vividly cause it was like 18in tall and it had a removable gray wig that felt like real hair

    Had this one but I lost the chainsaw

    Sounds like he has a personal beef with the album

    Charli:

    But I've always said as well that this album is a great pop album. In my eyes, I have not sacrificed any kind of sonic elements in order to make this performance art statement or whatever. The music is really good. And if you want to just put it on and listen to it as a great pop album with a variety of different styles of songwriting, more traditional versus more left, you can do that. But I would say, if you want to get theoretical about it — which I feel some of my fans like to do — I would say the commentary is actually based more around my history within the music industry and the fact that I've been signed to a major label since I was 16 years old. Throughout that time, I've never really utilized the major label in the way that I am supposed to. I've kind of always gone off grid, made my own path. ... There's been quite a lot of tension between the way I've chosen to do things and the way a major label expects female pop artists to do things. And I think a lot of my previous work has really been born out of that tension — or some, at least. With this final album, the final album in my deal, I wanted to play into this idea of, "What if I played the game?" Hence the whole selling my soul thing. What if I took pitch songs? What if I worked with an A&R for the first time in 10 years? What if I started using interpolations in a few of the songs? That's the world. To be honest, yeah, it could be deemed a performance art piece, but it's also a personal test to see whether I can handle it and whether that makes me happy and how it makes me feel. I'd say that's more the performative element of it. And with that comes all of the stereotypes of major label pop stars, which I think are definitely changing now when you look at the frontier of female pop.
