S*** is getting out of hands for real like Twigs teasing in september an album that's dropping next year like what are we doing here ???

Yall gotta blame the dsps!!

They make artists release the music that way

In

Tyler announced flowerboy and released 3 weeks later

tyler announced igor and released 2 weeks later

Tyler announced CMIYGL and released a week and 2 days later

Tyler announces Chromokopia....

FRIDAY

shipping container leak was real

I feel like bigger artists have more control over release dates because they get priority placement with physical releases getting made

saying that as someone on a major is wicked. just because he's in-demand and can move how he wants to doesn't mean that's the case for everyone. actually kinda a laughable statement but i'm assuming he said more that's missing in the context.

Yup and he doesn’t announce an album until it’s 100% done and ready to release

I can’t stand when artists announce a project is coming “soon” , and then gotta deal with delays, last minute changes, and sample clearance issues

cough cough Ye West

Feels like an excuse for most of them because if Taylor manages to bend Sony at his will, others can do it too if we're being honest, they just don't want to

business is business. i'm sure she'd personally love to drop whenever she'd like

that single she dropped enough to feed me for months though lol

Usually when I listen to it I have to run it back, she’s sensational

Previously said that I hope his next album is about him embracing his African heritage and blackness after the self-hate he expressed as a teen because of his father abandoning him. Hoping this is the case, first thing I thought when I pressed play on this

original leak said this is coming Friday

I feel like Twigs earned that right and if that rollout is going the way it goes, it's most likely her own doing

link?

Taylor Swift? things can get egregious, for sure, but the biggest cash cow in the industry isn't really the best example for what other artists are capable to do. she and artists of similar stature move however, whenever she wants. others have to be fit into the schedule, and it's a HUGE schedule

She is but you'll ruin the single to the ground, with how long you gotta wait before the album, and s*** will just be an almost skip when the whole body of work drops

MONTHS!

He said he doesn’t like when artists go on live and preview music for fans. He said just drop it when it’s ready and you’re able to instead of sitting on a snippet so you can see the reaction and then the song never comes out cause people judged a 30 second snippet or a rough version

No they can’t bro

You think Spotify is dealing with Fka twigs the same way they deal with Taylor Swift?

I’m saying this for a fact bc I’ve seen it first hand. Spotify only lets you push 1 song a month for playlisting and you can’t push songs after the album is out, if you wanna promote multiple songs then you have to turn your album in months in advance. This doesn’t apply to artist like Taylor who is A-List or to artist like Tyler who don’t need multiple singles for promo

But I def don’t think Twigs fits in either of those categories. This is actually a very real issue in the music industry its not an excuse at all

Lmao I meant Tyler not Taylor my bad I don't even want to edit my answer out of respect for the lines you wrote

I'm personally a fan of rollouts after that Drake/Beyonce phase we had for a while circa 2015 where artists were just doing suprise releases

FKA Twigs period between announcement and release is ridiculous tho. Tyler pretty much nails it everytime, announces shortly before release but still has videos and s*** so it feels like a rollout

I meant Tyler my bad bro
