BuzzJack Music Forum _ Pop and Country _ Tate McRae - THINK LATER
Posted by: UltraCruelSummer 6th November 2023, 03:00 PM
Tate's 2nd album Think Later will be released on the 8th December! Its nice to see them striking whilst the iron is hot and Greedy is smashing, instead of trying to replicate that 100 times before releasing the album.
Will be interesting to see how this does with a release date so near to Xmas, but I'm excited for how soon its coming & ready for more bops!

Oh wow, wasn't expecting this so soon!! I think it would've made sense to wait until January and "Kisses To My Exes" sounds like a huge hit too - it's so booooooring that December is eaten up by ancient Christmas songs but good on her for trying!
Posted by: RobBot 6th November 2023, 03:16 PM
Yeah, I think she'd be better waiting until January? Especially as Kisses To My Exes sounds like another possible big hit for her, which she's hyping to death again, I'd hate to see that momentum sunk by all the Christmas onslaught.

World tour announced also for next year! Cannot WAIT to see her, she is such a great performer from seeing her previously.

Hope kisses to your exes gets released soon, it’s stuck in my head! I also fear for the December release though albums seem to be less impacted than singles Christmas wise so it could still do decently! And yay at the tour too! Very soon gbo, announced today and tickets on sale Friday! Thank god I get payed in between then lmao

think this is gonna bomb, no vinyls, no cassettes just one CD, and I'm not even sure if it's US or UK?

Not a great release date either i think she would have been better holding off until January and also release vinyl's, unless they are going for a sales boost later on releasing a vinyl and cassette.

Surely an early Jan release would have been a better strategy for this to take advantage of the sales lull and even potentially challenge for number one following the success of Greedy? With maybe Kisses being released last week of Dec? Seems crazy for her to be throwing out an album just before Christmas

She's a great performer!

Saw signed copies on her website and got excited.....until I saw it cost an extra £20 to ship to the UK. They really are missing a trick here. Her promotion has been brilliant but there is only one version of the cd.
Posted by: conorw 23rd November 2023, 03:24 PM
im so baffled cos for her debut there were uk exclusive signed cds, vinyls and cassettes! i really hope more cassettes and vinyls come out in the new year, and as much as i wanna hear it i wouldnt be dissapointed if it got pushed back till the new year just so they can take advantage! i jsut dont get why, greedy has been so huge everywhere, and exes is doing decently to follow up too! why ruin the rollout with limited physicals!

Album sales clearly aren't their focus. They just want all the songs out there so they can see what picks up on TikTok.
Posted by: conorw 23rd November 2023, 06:20 PM
shes already started teasing a new one that is having some virality on tiktok, hope they push it in the new year

Hurt My Feelings is a BOP.
Knew I would adore Grave after the fantastic SNL performance and the studio version sounds amazing <3
(Just realised Run For The Hills is unplayable for me atm so will listen to that after I’ve finished the rest of the album)
Posted by: conorw 8th December 2023, 12:12 AM
Iutticf was my top album of last year (till midnights came out) so this has a high bar!! I love greedy and exes so hopefully another amazing album!!
Posted by: conorw 8th December 2023, 12:14 AM
Ok cut my hair is nice. I do like run for the hills, but omgggg hurt my feelings is soooo good. (I keep updating this as I hear it lol) Grave omg 
it’s giving chaotic, but I love the beat kicking in halfway through!
Stay done I loveeee that guitar!!
We’re not alike wowwww. Along the rock vein of saiwb/ wwyd but… darker? I think that’s the best way to describe it
Oooooh the guitar on calgary is soooo majestic. Scrap tbst the whole song is majestic. Too short though
Ooh messier is lovely!
Holy shitttt think later (the song) slaps
Guilty conscience is a nice one!
Want that too is a nice one too, more chill out in vibe!
Plastic palm trees is giving boy x in musical style, it’s a sweet chill track, works nice as an album closer!
Posted by: conorw 8th December 2023, 12:35 AM
Ok overall based on first listens, it’s a really solid album! Not as good as her debut imo, but a nice album. Greedy and exes are good single choices, and highlights are we’re not alike, hurt my feelings, plastic palm trees , Calgary and think later!!
Posted by: UltraCruelSummer 8th December 2023, 12:45 AM

The lack of a middle eight stops most of these songs from elevating to 9s or 10s! Great album but I can’t get my head around these 2 minute tracks. Great album though.
Posted by: Tafty³³³ 8th December 2023, 12:22 PM
Idk what it is… I just can’t get on board fully and it’s annoying me because I should be loving her more than I do. I just find most of her stuff fairly dull 
This album is… fine. But it gets a bit samey. I think she has the type of voice that isn’t versatile enough to elevate these songs to where they would otherwise go with other stars.
Posted by: Aaron. 9th December 2023, 01:24 AM
Not her naming a song on her album after her home town (where I’m from) but she.. didn’t bother to add the city on her North American tour?
I’ll check this out either way, the handful of tracks I’ve heard so far have been good!
Posted by: Sean. 9th December 2023, 09:08 AM
Guilty conscience is THAT song, it’s huge! Grave next best, both 10s.
Think Later is the only song I don’t like, sounds like a generic K Pop girl and song.
Posted by: JackTheeStallion 9th December 2023, 09:32 AM
Early faves are "run for the hills", "guilty conscience", "grave" and "hurt my feelings" but overall what an album omg. She is that girl!
Posted by: Lunar 9th December 2023, 12:12 PM
Obsessed with this!
My highlights so far are guilty conscience, we're not alike, calgary & run for the hills but there's really nothing I dislike! Saw her at Pryzm yesterday too and she was amazing <3
Posted by: GraceAJX 10th December 2023, 04:35 PM
Bit of a bland album tbh, will try and listen more and get on board with it but not looking good on first listen... still love Greedy tho!
Also, this is really sad and unnecessary...
