'true story' is already massively underrated for me.
It's basically an intro to 'the boy is mine' but it's actually better than it imo. I love the production especially and Ari's vocals on 'truuuuue' are heavenly. |

I really like the production of this one and the "gimme love love" refrain <3

'the boy is mine' is screaming out to be a summer single *.* the production quirks on this one, e.g. the false start at the beginning of the chorus, have really clicked with me on subsequent listens

A bop! One of the weaker songs on the album for me (although the song isn't weak AT ALL). It has grown quite a bit on me since my first listen
That slowed-down bit before the chorus always gets me |

'the boy is mine' has been growing on me to be fair but I was hoping for a bit more. I do like how the vocals in the chorus are dragged out slightly.
Quite a subtle use of the Monica/Brandy track too. |

THE BOY IS MINE
This one didn't click straight away for me but I love it now! Definitely one of the most catchy on the album, I always find myself randomly singing it |

This is still an absolute banger for me! I'm glad the album turned out how it did but not mad at a bit of house music on it.

I love 'yes, and' but now the albums out, it can be forgotten about. I can definitely see why it was the first single and the 'd**k I ride' implied lyric is a bit iconic but it's so different to the rest of the album, it does give slight whiplash.

BANGER!!!!!!! This was a phenomenal way to kick off the era. It feels like a very important moment in the context of the album. Lyrically, 'yes, and?' is very much a celebratory song (because we all need a bit of light in the darkness) whereas the rest of the album's material is pretty heavy.

It's a cute bop but I still don't think it should've been the lead tbh! Definitely towards the bottom of my album ranking, but that says more about the quality of this album to be fair <3

Hopefully a future UK #1
The video is where the references to the film really come alive and I'm here for it! |

already an all-time great Ari single
Love the lyrical content, synth production, vocal performance, music video... no notes, would be such an amazing U.K. #1 if it gets there |

'we can't be friends (wait for your love)' probably would've been a more successful lead than 'yes, and?' but I'm happy to see both songs get a chance being under the spotlight. I love the production of this song SO MUCH I can really feel the raw honesty and emotion in Ari's lyrics + vocals in this song as well, I really hope this smashes.
Very happy that Ari wrote the lyrics for this album, I don't think the album would sound the same at all if they hadn't. |

This is my least favourite of the tracks atm (minus the intro and interlude).
Hopefully a grower but it feels like the one forgettable track on the project for me. |
