Pleased that we got another music video from this era and a beautiful song to go with <3

both playing on the same day at the Primavera festival in Barcelona in a few weeks, so hope they collaborate live on stage

it's a great festival with an amazing line-up if you don't know it

 

I do indeed, my friend is going this year - sadly I couldn't get the time off work because we are short staffed. Gutted. : (

Controversial opinion: This album is his best and Barefoot in the Park is the weakest thing on it by some distance

I wouldn't say it's his best, but it is probably his most consistent and definitely a return to form.

 

“Can’t Believe The Way We Flow” is my favourite from it, the stand-out for me.

Yeah I'd probably go with that, nothing as good as his previous strongest tracks probably but so good throughout which others haven't been. That's definitely up there for me. I'll Come Too and Power On my other favourites. Still think Don't Miss It is the best track on it but feels out of place as it was released so far in advance of the rest of it.

The album has been re-released to include "Mulholland", which is also in the vinyl due out May 10. The track is out now.

Mile High (feat. Travis Scott and Metro Boomin) was sweet! Definitely happy with this new stuff.

We should be expecting a video for Can’t Believe The Way We Flow. It was uploaded earlier but then removed :unsure:

Was literally just wondering the other day if there were going to be any more music videos from this era, another great choice of song to get a video! (Assuming it'll be reuploaded at some point lol)

 

I heard this on vinyl over the weekend (got it for Jade's birthday x), it's cool that he included a new song for the vinyl release but 'Mulholland' definitely sounds like a leftover, probably my least or 2nd least favourite song on the album (with 'Are You In Love?') - the rest of the album still sounds wonderful though. The discs of the vinyl are a lovely green colour, didn't even realise it was a coloured vinyl when I bought it so that was a nice surprise *.* (weirdly though 'Mulholland' is misspelt as 'Mullholand' in the sleeve so the quality control is a little lacking on other areas of this release :P)

Oh I have that version too, they're a gorgeous colour :wub: Great present!

 

I'm still loving this album, it's running Overgrown close as my favourite of his.

Video is now coming tomorrow

 

:wub: !!!!

Omg. So cute!! Summoning Chez for this x

Well thanks for reminding me he exists, nice song x

 

the video is of course absolutely wonderful, like a love triangle of birds, I approve :wub:

saddens me that despite the great songs he's released this year including collars with 2 of the hottest names in the industry (Travis and Rosalia) it hasn't had much effect or buzz, neither commercially nor critically :/

no critical buzz? I thought he's one of the best ranked artists around, at least in terms of critics reviews of his work.

It was only really Pitchfork that gave this album a subpar score and that's likely just because they're salty about him calling them out for referring to his music as 'sadboy music'. It got very positive reviews otherwise (80 on Metacritic). His music is never going to be commercially successful, at least 'Mile High' charted somewhere!

don't recall seeing him in any end of the year charts

 

besides, considering the people he got on board, a bit more of commercial success should have been expected

It was in year end lists from Complex, The Guardian, NME and Time (27, 31, 22 and 10 respectively) according to Wikipedia.
