Cremey

So devastated :’(

Utica! ❤️ Obsessed. Her and Gottmik were definitely the correct top two this week, I love them both so much. Like everyone else is saying, LaLa’s 3rd look was one of the worst ever runway looks, but she really brought it with the lip sync. So glad she did because she’s so likeable and I want her to do well 😭 YES at Tamisha calling Kandy out for being vile. I just know her and Tina will hang around far too long.

This is going to be so difficult. I love them all 😭 I’m going for betty first too. Until quite recently I would’ve gone with peace but I’ve got a new found love for it after watching The Long Pond Studio Sessions and hearing her talk about it.

You can’t call it The Highlights when you miss off the highlight of your career, High For This 💔

This is sublime 💕

Gloves Up is the just an inferior Power/Salute to me. Similar to past hits but nowhere near as strong. Happiness is the only one calling out to be a single now, but I have a feeling they’ll just move on 💔

Quite a few of my absolute favourites were from the 90s! These would nearly all be in my top 10 of all time: Janet Jackson 'The Velvet Rope' D'Angelo 'Brown Sugar' Lauryn Hill 'The Miseduction of Lauryn Hill' Björk 'Homogenic' Michael Jackson 'Dangerous' Madonna 'Ray of Light' Björk 'Post' The Velvet Rope is my favourite from the decade though. Such a classic album and one I'll never tire of :wub:

I always have this on my running playlist, good to see I’m not the only one :lol: It’s a perfect workout song.

I haven’t listened to much of Zayn’s solo stuff but had to listen to When Love’s Around because I love Syd so much. That voice :heart: Looove it on first listen, might have to give the rest of the album a listen.

Ha I’m the same, baffled by its success and don’t see the appeal at all :’) I can’t handle that cursive singing. Good for her though, amazing for a debut!

The video!! Amazing.

Am I the only one loving the single? I admit it’s not really anything new or different for her but it’s so gorgeous – that chorus :wub: Her voice is heavenly, so much stronger than LMLYLAW.

How can someone who is known to be such a great writer constantly get it so wrong when trying to put their point across? I don’t get what she was trying to achieve with the Instagram caption... it comes across as so ignorant and so defensive, and not in a good way. The ‘my boyfriends have been rappers’ line is literally ‘I’m not racist, I have black friends’ 🤡🤡🤡

Sooo made up for them :wub:

So great to see her doing so well with this! It's quite unexpected too, this is quite like a lot of her older stuff which I didn't think would have that much commercial appeal. I'm glad she's going down this route though, her profile has been raised in the last couple of years and she easily could've gone much more commercial to make the most of it. One of favourite songs at the moment :wub:

It’s definitely overtaken Touch for me now. My favourite girl group song in absolute years and my favourite song of 2020. Undeniable :heart:

Can’t get enough of this, it’s exactly the kind of thing I love from SZA :heart: I liked Hit Different but it didn’t ever properly click with me like this has straight away. This is much more what I was hoping for, can’t wait to hear what else is to come from the album :wub:

Really hoping it’s not Not a Pop Song or Gloves Up...

Tidal :wub: Ha I think you’ve convinced me to subscribe, I’ve been looking through their previous records of the month and there are so many great limited edition ones. Really good that you can unsubscribe whenever too 👌🏼

Haha yeah I think we will. I think I’ll always like his more mellow ones though so that’s probably why I prefer the third act. Must admit I only actually know Trippie Redd from this :lol: and just find his parts off-putting for some reason haha. You never know though, he might grow on me :’) And thanks dandy, I’ve just found it online, think I might have to subscribe in March (maybe in Feb as the Strokes one looks gorgeous too...)

OMG I NEED THAT! Do you know if it’s limited edition just for your subscription? I need to get all three on vinyl. Ha Bré, act III is the best act! His mellow ones are always the ones that I come back to. Sept. 16 and Lovin’ Me are two of my absolute favourites, along with The Pale Moonlight and Mr Solo Dolo III. Rockstar Nights is the only one on the whole album I’m not too keen on, really don’t like that chorus or Trippie Redd in general 🙃

01 Touch 02 Sweet Melody 03 Move 04 Wasabi 05 Power/Forget You Not Wasabi being so high on most people’s lists just shows it really is the single that should’ve been 😭

100 (!!!) new versions of Riquiqui have just been released. Here’s what she says about it: Did you know that up until now I had never allowed anyone to remix an Arca song? There existed 0 official remixes to an Arca track until today—“Riquiquí” has gotten 100 remixes by an intelligent sentience, created and trained by the genius minds at Bronze. I’ve worked with Bronze once before; in 2019 I gave musical language to Echo, a musical being birthed into the Museum of Modern Art’s lobby, and then Echo began to speak of its own volition. There you will never hear the same thing twice—for two years it is an evermorphing stream thanks to Bronze’s trained yet unpredictable musical AI. I recognized the textures and melodies, but never the song—for a composer such as myself it remains something truly new which I had never experienced before, a moment of unforgettable experience in virtue of the mystery and wonder Bronze makes possible. In my top 3 albums of the year, still adore this 💕

Rain On Me <-> Marry The Night The Edge of Glory <-> Dance in the Dark Dance in the Dark is her best ever :heart:
