    Block will never be Taxi. Block will never be Round & Round. Block will never be Hey Boy Hey Girl. Block will never be Up & Down. Block will never be CTMP 320kbps. Block will never be Pop the Balloons. Block will never be WGFU. Block will never be Mow That Lawn. Block will never be Believe. Block will never be Lucy Liu. Block will never be Would You. Block will never be Rain Over London. Block will never be 24hrs album. Block is a flop scrap that's getting the high demand leak treatment but once it's out there most will forget about her within the day it leaks! Another song left rotting in the Charli sessions albums.

    BRAT is the kind of diet you go on when you've got an upset stomach - Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast.
     
    360 - circular, all around, all encompassing, back to the start
     
    For the sake of the shitpost, we're going to focus on Bananas and Apples(auce). These are fruits, which means....

    Oh god it's so hard. I know a lot of people group things by the eras or the recording sessions songs were made in. A lot of people pin the songs to the album most closely released to the songs' genesis, etc.

    I personally just....do my own thing. I look at what albums we know the songs are outtakes from, but then I look at how sonically they go together, lyrical quality, production, etc. So in some places, I've got a "B: Side" of the album, but then in others I've just got a lot of my own "albums".
     
    Some of it is easy and clear (like the whole 'Sucker Punch' punk concept - all sounds the same, very British Rock, cohesive songs), and then some of it is sheer utter mess (literally 2015-2018/19 lmao oh my god there is JUST. SO. MUCH. SHIT.)
     
    Some examples of what I've done. I need to actually redo some of it eventually because I've gotten HQ versions of some of the tracks over time and need to swap out the LQ versions.


     

     

     

     


    I've got a lot of my own covers that I either made, or copied from other people and tweaked or cleaned up too. It's been a minute so I have no clue what I did or what I took from someone else and made my own or w/e.

    I realized that the ones that are worth to keep are:
    Touch - BJB 1-26_2 Touch 2-28_1 Touch 2-28 V2 Just One Touch - 3-15 Charli XCX - Touch - BJ Burton x Xela v2.3 different chorus sample The others ones can go as they are previous versions of the ones I mentioned above (with almost unnoticeable differences)

    I think there's a diminishing returns thing with leaks. You find an artist you ABSOLUTELY love, and you're craving more more more, and then you find there's a little back catalog of unreleaseds or leaks or songs that were released but then quickly taken down, and it's like "OH MY GOD, MORE CONTENT TO LOVE!", but after awhile, the shine wears off.

    Sometimes, the songs were legit mastered and ready, they're *done*, but held back for a deluxe that never materialized, or an entire album or EP that was canned last minute. They're great quality, lyrically and compositionally, if it's a ballad and you love ballads, then you love it. If it's a pop-bop and you want another pop-bop, you love it. Love/hate comes down to personal taste regardless, and everyone is happy to have another song or body of work.

    Then you have the songs that were 'done' in the sense of album ready, but not selected and sent for mastering, and the rest of the body of work they were to go with went on and lived its life while they got forgotten. They're still great, but they just didn't get included for thematic reasons. The execs and managers did their own ranking and reviews and the track(s) ended up at the bottom of the pile for whatever reason. Still listenable. Still likable. Fans rejoice.
     
    Then you've got the songs in the intermediate that were still in the workshop. Some are 'finished'. Some are absolutely not. Some are lyrically right, but the instrumental is shit, or vice versa. We've got 8 different versions with different intros and outros. Sometimes they're missing a bridge or a proper intro/outro. Sometimes it's just all instrumental stems with no vocals. Depending on the case, dedicated fans will 'fix' the track in a week. Sometimes it's absolute crap. Song quality is questionable - sometimes we get that 320k/WAV, sometimes we get that "recorded in a club in the bathroom on a 2002 Nokia' experience". Sometimes listenable, sometimes horrid. And with demos and WIPs - wide range of expectations v. reality. Could get shit that sounds almost album-perfect, could get shit that's literally tin-can microphone and a ukulele. Could have nonsensical lyrics to fill the space in a track, could just have gaps of silence in the tracks altogether.

    After awhile of leak after leak after leak after leak after leak after leak bouncing between these different quality levels, it gets fatiguing. I used to be like 'OMG NEW SONG WHENN???!!!", but then when the full doesn't match the hype of the snip, I'm a little more reserved the next go round. Or when the snippet is passed around for months before the full drops, by then I'm already over it.

    Add in that some people are really hunting for leaks or unreleaseds from a certain 'era' of an artist, or only looking for a specific sound or song, and suddenly the leaks and outtakes and resurfaced old material starts to become less impactful, less important, less celebrated. In the case of Charli, there's a dedicated block of folks who have basically bone-grafted Pop2/Self-Titled/HIFN to their skeletons and literally anything that isn't poppers bottom PC music is panned. There's a block of people who crave witchy-goth-tumblresque True Romance 24/7/365 and anything not from that angsty era is panned. XCXWorld sluts literally want one thing and it's Bounce are constantly chasing that "high" of when that whole thing materialized, so anything less doesn't smack the dopamine button like it used too.

    Just my 2 cents (adjusted for inflation).
     
    (Also sometimes the song really is just that fucking bad, which is WHY it wasn't released. Something something we all missing the forest for the trees on that one.)

    THAT BEING SAID...
     
    I am (baby) obsessing.
     
    MOTDF and Crying Stars are good. 3.5/4 out of 5. Solid songs (to me). Going into playlists. Will be bopping. Worth the wait or w/e on MOTDF. I have her. We living.
     
    WvW I like it a LOT, BUT sonic texture is off. Sounds demo. Maybe more in future? Maybe scrapped and this is what we get. Who knows. I remember hearing snippets in the past so getting the full now is nice.

    Hotel - meh.

    Tables - I need the fulllllllll. I love it.
