Ngl learning that everybody listens to everything is eyeopening for me 👀

Brb changing my sub to Kate Bush's 42 minute Endless Sky of Honey

"It's not the length, it's what you do with it"

Just don't listen to that one 🤷

I had no idea she released an album. Tbh what I think is the most toxic is she is clearly surrounded by people normalizing working when she is not fit to. She looks like a ghost of herself and all of this 'but its her choice' rhetoric is papering over the fact that there are contexts and controls governing round what someone in her position as tied to a record label and contractual obligations are even 'allowed' or capable of choosing in the first place. There was a great post made some years ago by a woman R&B singer who had worked in the industry before going independent (I forget who it was) and she said that what made her see the industry for what it was was that for all it preached about choice and empowerment, only the people who wanted to take choices and empower themselves in ways that the execs and the advertisers already approved of were allowed to do that, so the whole thing was illusory. She pointed out that no A-List celebrity or 'role model' type ever was able to appear and talk about how they found it empowering to not wear makeup or just to wear comfortable clothes or not have a team of stylists and dressers with them at every minute, or not go to certain events, or talk too much about politics or about subjects that executives found uncomfortable, whether in their music or in interviews about it.

I'm glad my artist this time FINALLY has a good song

In case you're not aware, Giant left allegedly because his then-gf had an OnlyFans and the BBC gave him an ultimatum to break up or leave since Gladiators has a large child fanbase.

Cyclone has announced on her social that she chose to leave & has hinted that she was being asked to do something against her values if she stayed.

You're getting pop Jupiterdonia & you'll be happy about it until I come 21st in the semi again

I have always preferred the idea that the chart on the radio continued to be based on sales because that still has fluid change and features new music without needing to come up with all the complex rules they have instituted to try and artificially create a 90s- style chart featuring new entries but also including streaming etc.

Being eliminated by your mother is something new for Lana

Episode 1 is out! Interestingly the spoilers for it were not correct, iirc Imo a disappointing runway generally although Michael and Jade killed it, I also might've put Nicole in the top for doing something interesting with the fabric. They really set some of the girls up with this though.

Unfortunately I kinda don't like it and the MV feels cluttered. It sounds very album track to me rather than a comeback. I feel like there was space for big vocal moments we don't get. Tbh more than anything this sounds like a solo that was repackaged as a group song.

Justice for Jupiterdonia

I may go back to pop for the next one :')

Plane is going to be insufferable after equalling Bendela's record

How boring

M1ss Jade So (Ph, Down Under vs the World) sadly had a health crisis and attempted to take her own life over the weekend. She was prevented and is undergoing treatment now and is taking a hiatus from drag. Her management and family have issued a statement.

Tense final but for all the wrong reasons. Felt like Jasmine, A'Keria, Dawn and Silky were over the whole thing, Crystal was also kind of checked out & Joey was doing her best to keep the energy in the room up.

Well to my mind Joey was the single best lipsyncer out of all 6. Crystal was worse than everyone except Dawn.

Love seeing Katy B getting her flowers!

I came close. But ultimately this fits my 2020s record of being atrocious at this game :')

iirc Emily Makis was my 12 rip

Ready for my crashdown in flames

I knew Sam would go back to this sound
