can someone please leak lipgloss & cherry pop with ag’s vocals? 🥺 there was a snippet a while ago but i fear it’ll never leak

The TP cover is sort of an eyesore compared to the Mixtape & Starfucker covers

that cover is stunning

Sorry, but I don't like it  Knockoff didn't need to become another Church Outfit 2.0, the leaked version by Fernando Garibay was also so much better…
 
Fun fact: Knockoff was supposed to be a single from Am I a Girl?— Titanic wrote a music video treatment for the song back then, but there were some issues with releasing and it was ultimately scrapped and replaced by X fairly late into the album's development. 
 
Looks like Poppy re-used the exact dance number video concept that Titanic came up with back in 2018, but again, failed to credit him. 

Uh huh.... Smth is really off isn't it? Maybe the leaks kinda ruinned it for her?!
I'm getting different vibes from her even tho she seems to be really trying to be there on socials.

thankfully he's arrested, it's really sad how many people are stalking lana or are a danger to her  

not terfboards omg...

i'm sorry but her smoking in a couple visualizers is having no impact on her mainstream success jklfdshaakjshf if anything it has the gays/girls liking her more 

why does nobody talk about the grail that ag cook revealed the existence of once and never mentioned again
screamer! dreamer's angsty twin sister!

Brooke Candy's Ligloss is another grail. It exists and people have it.

it's 2023

I'm amazed how there's so few pages for blondie's thread here. As one of the biggest pop stars out there, I expect her thread to reach at least 1000+ pages so I'm genuinely shocked that's not the case. 

that 2018 droplets era looks familiar 👀
 
 

that reminds me... back to begging for Disconnect demo! 

not terfboards omg...

Waterfall and I Wanna Be With U are soooo cute and peaceful… it’s a shame she never got to release them 

I feel like Atlantic would've felt more comfortable about XCX (album) if she swapped out Bounce for ILY2, instead of yk performing Bounce on national TV as if it were a rational single option for an album that is barely similar to it & that is wholly more radio-friendly than it
80% sure I've made this post before but I'm making it again

the reason Ancient F Words is much better than L+F is because she started all of it on her laptop, there are laptop or piano demos that she did for all of the songs, yes they sound rough but they have that charm of her earlier work of banging away at the piano and garageband loops - the problem was the lyrics, it went really pretentious on an attempt to be self aware and "political"... but you can see she still got some chops by the specialness of these demos, unlike someone like BANKS who went indie and tried to self produce her entire album to output that garbage snake thing she put out
 
L+F was trash because she went into studio to write generic love songs started from scratch by a random collection of producers... only a few songs on L+F was made as a laptop demo by her, mainly handmade heaven and soft to be strong, which are two of the strongest songs on the album and most Marina like to no surprises... as long as she keeps her focus on creating songs herself, working mainly with one producer to create a consistent soundscape and finding better lyrical content she will be fine. but i worry about her being independent now... there's a big risk that she will just become more insufferable

It's such a gem. I believe it's her best piano track. Maybe my favorite Marina song. 
 
I miss that sound and I'm glad that we got Goodbye, it's the closest to Obsessions that we have gotten since years. 
 
Goodbye and High Emotional People are future classics ♥ 

The food chain really did fuck some of you up, hun??? 
Anyway. Even if this thread looks like and endless vortex of discussing the same themes, I like to participate!
 
Love + Fear sessions had a really boppy and decent album buried in there. Not sure how we got what we got in the end (ok I know "2 main emotions! concept!" etc instead of "Ok so this is a collection on BANGERS! ENJOY xx") but don't matter what happened in the room, that album would always lack personality or just bring her worst tendencies.
 
Edit: by the way, do we have everything from L+F? I believe there's a snippet of "Ordinary World" (?) leaked but no full song, but that's it?? 
 
Now Ancient Dreams... there's a lot to unpack there. Especially because I hear the album as 2 different things being merged together; the "social commentary" part but also the songs that were personal and about her recent heartbreak. Purge the Poison & New America are bad (from lyrics to production) while the title track & Man's World are sort of... You can ignore the lyrics and bop along\vibe. Venus Fly Trap is pretty good and balanced out. But the more personal songs are mostly truly great gems, sorry: Flowers, Goodbye & I Love You but I Love Me More are songs she's selling the fuck out of them. Highly Emotional People is a career highlight from every point of view (lyrics, production, vocals). I will say I don't really care about Pandora's Box and can't remember how it goes at all BUT I do like the concept\metaphor... and the deluxe ones: Pink Convertibles is the same crap from the social commentary and I have no idea why people were craving it, Free Woman is useless and Happy Loner is cute but if we really decided to go with personal songs only... we'd be here saying WHERE THE BOPS AT???
 
Oh and unpopular opinion maybe (?) but Cuz I'm a Woman should have been part of the album. It fits perfectly between the themes, the song is catchy and it just works.
 
The whole cringe discourse is complicated when Marina herself has hinted that she cringes at stuff like... Obsessions. Which I personally see as one of the greatest songs ever created (no hyperbole). And at same time, while Electra Heart is one of the albums that I'll take for THE REST OF MY LIFE, stuff like "Teen Idle", which used to be something super deep and close to me, now sounds... silly. "Sixteen and burning up a bibble \ feeling super super super suicidal" is iconic but... cringe. 
 
Sometimes I think she just ran out of things she wanted (or........better: HAD) to say. When she gets it right, she gets it right and I know she's still talented as fuck and whenever she's ready, there will be more stellar albums to come.
