might actually be the worst and messiest rollout in a hot minute, an artist of lorde’s tier should be making waves but this has been flying under the radar

it is that's why i said that they aren't gonna get how absurd some of this s*** sounds haha

this leak yet?

It's absolutely not parodying anything and that might actually be the saddest part

and herreeee we go.

I'm so tuned out of this album now :((((

How did this even leak? Didn’t she have a handful of producers for this? I would’ve imagined it’d be on hard lockdown

never really looked at can’t tell me nothing as that just feels like a stadium anthem also kanye solidifying his fame

Album leaked?!??

she literally said it was

why are you such a crybaby

I just mean there’s debate over whether the lyrics of “ can’t tell me nothing”s chorus is meant to be ironic

Out now bois

i do think the extended notes she used to fill the stanzas in the first verse after "if i ever let them grow out" and "early 2000s feel so far away" sound odd and clunky

other than that no complaints. about the subject matter, lyrics, production, nothing. just a solid record

It's not bad but man it sounds like hold music

I wonder if she wanted this release to be lower-key

Sounds like some contemporary adult radio music from the 2000s

whether she did or not (she's spoken on it in recent interviews) they aren't gonna believe her. no way a pop star could want less spotlight, never been heard of before

yup she said that's the feel they were going for in the pre-premiere livestream. they nailed it shoutout Jack Antonoff

idk wanting less spotlight seems to fit in this "hippie" arc

the blonde looks good too

Any other info from that pre premiere thing about the Album or anything ?

will need to see what happens when the album releases but i don't see myself liking this more than melodrama or pure heroine

Blonde era
