I mean I'd be sick of it too if I were her; She started writing/teasing it in 2016

Did anyone ever find "Excitement"? 

And they were both underwhelming, imagine that

I see that, despite the cape god text being the same in the Rings a Bell artwork, it now says FIG 4, while Fresh Laundry said FIG 2. Are these tracklist placements?

Yeah L+F's really the outlier 
 

I waited YEARS for another great Allie X music video!!! (looking at you, NSBILA. what a disgrace). OMG that was amazing and so creepy lmao I'M FUCKING EXCITED FOR THIS TO BE A STORY OF X CONTINUATION, IF THIS IS ALEXANDRA'S CHANCE OF FINALLY SEEING THE LIGHT AND BEING RELEASED I'M GONNA CRY 

What a weird thing of her to say    Her music's maturity has been on a decline since Dollhouse EP

I thought about it some more and I think it's so weird that Wheels On The Bus, Class Fight, The Principal, Show & Tell and Nurse's Office all contextually look to happen in 1 day in the film 
 
That's a bit much!

Yeah, I think she just cusses as filler when she can't think of a better line at this point. Hoping that it is or was just a phase (bit of a long one tho since it mainly spans Class Fight circa end of 2015, to Piggyback end of 2017) since this wasn't really an issue on Cry Baby (sans the title track and Training Wheels).
 
The spam of "fucking" and "shit" in Piggyback and then the "fucking damn Barbie" line that I'll never get over in Lunchbox Friends are really indicative of the problem.

Agree. "Show & Tell" is maybe the only song on the record that I would argue is near-perfect and could work on Cry Baby if you found a slot for it.
 
I think the album's struggles are mainly just due in part to how extremely conceptual it is. With Cry Baby, you have to remember that she recorded a decent chunk of the songs (i.e. "Pity Party" and "Cake") without an explicit storyline in mind. And even then, Cry Baby's storyline is relatively loose with a ton of vague characters, brief plots and locations, whereas the concept for K-12 is the first thing Melanie created on the album, and it focuses on events and ideas around 1 isolated building with a consistent cast of characters over a (before the film was written) 13-year span with only 1 song per year.
 
I'd say the first 3 tracks on K-12 are easily the worst (Wheels On The Bus and Class Fight are nothing but exposition), and other good songs are almost completely ruined by a failure to find a good lyric (the "fucking damn Barbie" line in Lunchbox Friends) or more unnecessary exposition (the whole second verse in Nurse's Office).
 
The album also suffers from that, while it's a sequel to Cry Baby, the whole metaphor pattern is largely omitted (sans the 3-4 songs about the music industry) and with Cry Baby you can apply most, if not all, of the songs to real life (whereas K-12's relatability only goes in the "oh that happened to me in third grade" way or isnt relatable at all because it's political, specific to her experiences as a famous musician, or just generally can't be related to by anybody like in the case of Wheels On The Bus).

Those lossless files are fake. That account is a scammer.

Lily making PC music after the panned Sheezus and uneventful No Shame would be worse homophobia 

The visuals and audio for this new track are so out of character for her; What the fuck
