  1. that's not the japan anyone is talking about when they say "leak japan"
  2. how do you know this to be a fact? (btw can you reply to my mention about charli reading lanaboards? I'm not trying to interrogate you I promise lol I just want to hear other people's takes on things) but yeah that's the whole confusion. Right now there are two theories. The first one is that her google drive was hacked. But in recent history, some leakers on this thread have said there was a digital backdoor left unattended and that's where they stole everything. I don't believe they consider it stealing because it was unprotected but it's still her art & livelihood and they knew damn well it wasn't rightfully theirs. You'd have to do some crazy mental gymnastics to justify that shit. but ANYWAYS, they should've only had access to the songs made before the day ransacked the site or whatever. I just don't get the constant stream of snippets. I think Charli said she doesn't believe in backups because she believes if the file is lost it was meant to be (don't remember what interview I heard that in), so it could be possible that google Drive is the only place she stores music.
  3. it really was! it gave me an entirely new perspective on atlantic. Especially this part of the podcast https://youtu.be/JGeInNyszQk?t=56m33s , it makes me reconsider the meaning of her "album isn't delayed, just releasing it at the right time for me. label fucking love me." tweet. maybe there was some truth? maybe it was deleted bc the GP isn't supposed to know that there's a strategy at hand? like yes she was frustrated at the delay but maybe she also somewhat understood the holdup.
  4. "angels i'm so happy to bring out my first single from the new record... after the afterparty ft Lil Yachty!!!!" why am I crying in the club rn
  5. how does no one care that snippets of the new XCX3 are leaking (especially 1999) when Charli made it explicitly clear she only wanted the people at the Spotify meeting to listen to it and literally no one else on earth until release? now she's pretty much robbed of the choice to pitch it to other singers bc there'll be fans that bug her about it forever. how are these leaks even happening?? girl c'mon they clearly didn't know... no need to get saucy just say it's not an exchange track
  6. thank you so much! sometimes I worry that it comes across as a lot of rambling so no one reads it lol but I do like when we have discussions in here
  7. By the way, I know my posting style is usually LONG posts back to back, but I just have a LOT of thoughts in a very short amount of time and that's just sort of what happens, so I'm sorry if it's annoying you guys. I don't mean to spam. just block me I guess? (idk how to block, I just heard it was a feature back when bicassie was in this thread)
  8. was this snippet posted recently? when did it leak? I can't find the first time someone posted it, and I really don't remember anyone talking about it. One page to the next people were talking about this leak and I've been driving myself crazy trying to find the source. there's something about her vocal delivery that doesn't feel right: there are a few parts where she's off timing or the autotune stumbles while trying to find what note she's aiming for, and it really takes me out of the moment. I'm just sensitive to things like that. But the production is very interesting. Also, doesn't Bjork produce most of her own music? how? did something go down? how about no... I want to actually be surprised when she posts about it. what's wrong with emotional? what makes you think this? I don't think she just said it as an excuse or a fallback, (I'm not sure if that's what you mean), but I think most of us assumed she said that because of how the campaign for XCX3 never fully took off. But as of right now, she just said she doesn't know, sometimes she does sometimes she doesn't think an album is right for her (I can't find the interview but I know that's her current statement).
  9. About the recent interview about Charli being a workaholic, I wonder if it made her emotional because of possibly being pressured by expectations. Like, she loves music and if it was just music that she was obsessed with, I don't see how that could cause her distress... but I just feel like it's similar to the extreme anxiety that happened while creating Sucker. Maybe it's because she's working so hard for her fans but it feels like it's not enough bc of everyone demanding that she release tracks from 2 years ago or snippets of tracks that she never wanted to release. I'm just thinking out loud here... not trying to act like I cracked the code or something, just postulating. Does anyone have thoughts on this?
  10. I loved the part about boom clap in that podcast, ed howard really knows a hit when he sees it. I know we tend to hate atlantic for the album delays because they were too hung up on a hit, but you have to admire their drive as a label to always push for the most success their artists can achieve. It's clear they felt Charli could achieve more, but it just sucks how messy things got. After the Afterparty actually makes me nostalgic now but it also doesn't feel real, it almost feels like it didn't happen. Surreal I guess. Like I know she performed it on Kimmel and the X Factor but it's just crazy to remember all the promo she did and the snapchat stories she'd post of getting ready to go on set, she was really going back into the ring and then everything else is a blur. Complaining about the delay, saying it's not delayed, teasing the party concept, that magazine interview where they described the songs, then another delay, then everything leaked. I know we've played this (night a thousand times, in my dreams... a thousand times the same old story... ok im sorry, my brain just had to hit me with references) story out so many times, but does anyone feel the same way when they look back on 2016/2017??
  11. https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/atlantic-signs-characters-youve-got-to-be-about-more-than-gimmicks/ Skip to the part of the page that says "Cook's affinity with his artists", I found that part really interesting
  12. holy shit tysm for posting this!! I remember coming across this series a couple months ago and I SO wished they had a Charli episode. They actually have a spotify playlist https://open.spotify.com/user/andthewriteris/playlist/3nBURAz7EPkVNt2bQAlO11
  13. sis omg... do you feel like you're in the twilight zone?
  14. I'm screaming omg she made a song titled after a city where a nuclear plant blew up and referenced her own song Nuclear Seasons?? That's some next level conceptualization going on in your dreams Can you post the snippet please?
  15. I don't think I've heard liquor or middle finger, can someone post snippets?
  16. I love how someone was like "oh I have that unleaked track", didn't post it, and disappeared (can't remember who it was)
  17. https://soundcloud.com/xcx2018/b-1 has this been posted in here? it leaked 23 days ago... I feel like someone quoted it in here
  18. is there a video of this?
  19. true but I guess they caught on to stan behavior
  20. Spotify has a system in place to detect if a user is abusing the playback of a song and in those cases the plays might not be counted. Keeping No Angel/Focus on repeat while you sleep might not count. I'm just gonna buy the double single and you should all do the same, Charli deserves it.
  21. y'all are SUCH haters omg
  22. someone tweeted that they asked her and she said yes she has plans yeah I know they're not sonically cohesive but they kind of follow the same arc... have any better ideas?
  23. it said "most others" so i'm not sure the author was writing about Charli... it definitely fits with the gays pestering her for the exchange tracks (omg imagine Charli releases TKO along w the other exchange songs and says "here they are... pester me again I'm gonna have to kick your teeth in") I noticed that too! It reminds me of Cher, I guess the believe cover really rubbed off on her! it's like a "tongue stuck in your mouth" kind of slur, like you just came back from the dentist with gauze all up in your mouth. Other examples that come to mind are the girls demo that leaked (didn't save it) before the official came out and Delicious. It's not too offensive in No Angel and the second yeah is normal so I'm fine with it I've never heard of this second version, can you post a link? I bet you burned 10x more calories by listening to such skinny songs! It's also in the released version, is it like a grinding metal sound? How do you get these numbers?
  24. Since Charli said she's planning to do something with Vroom Vroom records, imagine this: She drops an EP titled Vroom Vroom: The Next Mile (credits to Khris for the name i think) where it's the same car except in glossy classic red and the background is red but the center glows white like there's a light behind the car. She's photoshopped leaning onto the hood of the car wearing her iconic red Exchange outfit and the tracklist goes -TKO -Taxi -Up N' Down -Blame It On Ur Luv (the 1st version) -and the EP ends with that snippet that goes "what else could I do? cause I was moving along and walking alone when I found you", I imagine it to be like, an 80's heartbreak song, and she intimately sings that line right after the instrumental fades away to close off the EP (in that last line, the word "you" goes up in pitch instead of down so that it sounds really cute and dreamy, and it feels like a happy ending. Kind of like the way she sings the last line of True Romance.) and then for the 3rd EP titled Vroom Vroom: The Finish Line, the car is white and the background is white but it the center glows light blue to sort of highlight the car and reflect off of it (and the headlights glow light blue) and she's on the hood of the car in her iconic white tennis skirt, bra, rhinestoned XCX visor look. The tracklist is - Waterfall - WGFU - In The Darkness - EP closes with the line "all I know is I don't deserve you" from White Mercedes. OMG my mind really snapped, the girls are out here releasing their albums in 2 parts while Charli's doing a whole 3 part concept on her own label ugh only in an alternate reality
