^^ I've got it too! It does look very slapdash... low-ish quality pictures and the text is on the blurry side. Something I really dislike is the parental advisory logo on the front... it's so small that the text isn't even readable, it looks smudged :') That definitely lends to making it look like a low quality print out rather than an official item. It's certainly nowhere near the quality of Kylie's Golden cassette!

 

I'm not too mad about it given that it was fairly cheap, but I'm sure more care could have gone into its design.

Bopping so hard to the title track now! Album is still a bit iffy overall, but I’ve made a 10 song edit which I’m enjoying!

Kinda expected bigger numbers in the US for her but still a good opening amount! I guess Nicki would have won had she had physicals and went up against Ariana!

It’s 60k more than Dangerous Woman, but yeah I expected more too!

Can't wait til everyone grows to love "borderline" aka the fourth best track on the album LUH

Bordelrine, Blazed and Get Well Soon are my least favs.

I'm totally convinced that in 'Sweetener' (the song) she's saying "when life deals us c**ts".

I've listened to this in full now, it's such a CHORE to get through. Jeeeez.

 

At this point, I'm calling Dangerous Woman a fluke.

I absolutely adore the album now lmao :') even tracks I wasn't totally here for like 'blazed' etc.

Same! Ive rearranged the album in a seperate playlist and it flows so much better to me.

The flow is the niggling issue I have with it but the individual songs... there's none of skip? Except maybe 'better off' / 'get well soon' at a push :o

I'm loving all the tracks now :music:

Maybe it's just because I'm used to it now but I really don't have any problems with the ordering of the songs. It flows well for me.

 

Although I do think Better Off sounds like an album closer. I read that it was recorded for 'Dangerous Woman' which makes a lot of sense because it does very much sound like a track from that.

I read that Better Off was written about Mac Miller and was one of the songs added to the album later on as a sort of afterthought

 

It’s one of my least favourite tbh anyway, I feel like her big post-Manchester album didn’t need a “f*** my ex” sort of song

I actually really love Better Off (it sounds more CTRL than Dangerous Woman to me). It has smart placement on the tracklist, Goodnight n Go and Pete Davidson following it feel like a story almost.

Better Off is amazing :(

 

Pete Davison is fantastic and I wish there was a longer version.

Glad to see you all coming round.

Right! :wub:

Better off & rem are the bests

Only just seen her singing Natural Woman on Jimmy Fallon, that performance shows every reason why she's one of the best vocalists of this generation :wub: One of the very few singers who could actually pay tribute to Aretha and do her justice.
