American Whore

I think this is one of those situations where intention is really important. At the time, I don't think it was made to offend someone - other than those who were so anti-gay and anti-LGBTQ+ in general. It was edited for the radio and some radio stations banned it, both because of the Coca Cola name being used but also subject matter. Some stations thought it wasn't "radio friendly" enough because of what he was singing about. It's iconic for a reason. Ray talked about it, saying, "It really doesn't matter what sex Lola is, I think she's alright". I think it's just a representation of the youth of that time, being more open-minded. (This also scares me because most people my age now are pretty open minded about LGBTQ+ plus, but looking at how the older generations have flipped their opinions, it worries me that my generation will do the same.) Also, it's ironic, considering the name of the band, but that isn't offensive lmao I'm not trans or dress in drag, but I do think it's an important topic that's already had and will always be had surrounding this song. Either way it's an important, classic song and i'm pretty sure it's my bf's favorite song from The Kinks. Probably my favorite too, next to Yes Sir No Sir from the album before Lola, Arthur

lol i wonder if she intentionally did the If You Seek Amy thing here or if it's just a thing i hear when i'm paying too much attention, "If you're seekin heaven" -> "f-u-c-kin heaven" maybe it's what i wanna hear idk lol

queen of rap and yet can't make a good album

did roman show up anywhere? i didn't finish it, i got bored

why is j cole carrying the entire track he's featured on like.... roman better show up or i'll be mad

fallin 4 u is giving pinkprint outtake

not the roman song missing on the tracklist

i found the tracks but not the album on apple music help

idk this album better be good for not coming out in 5 years

i'm just saying, i listen to her bops but being time person of the year hasn't ever really meant much - hitler was the time person of the year in 1938 so their judgement of what person of the year's meaning is is kinda confusing. edit: ew, so was trump in 2016 regardless yall swifties stay eating! hell, i'll buy the magazine too just for fun

got mine today, it was apparently at my apartment complex's office because the package boxes got broken into so they had it held for me at least it was safe

give back the candy necklace

i always forget about this leak bc i have it saved as a COCC demo since it belongs with COCC but it also belongs with UV so idk where else to put it, plus it's also an unreleased with different lyrics ugh

it's almost a four way tie for A&W, Taco Truck, Candy Necklace, and Kintsugi. i love those four so much

I put a spell on you would be iconic or crazy he calls me

but but

it's working fine for me but i don't see a story

this could also be implying if there's a cover album, it wouldn't be on it right? we can be delulu for a minute longer

not this being added to 11 playlists on apple music, she's coming for streams and coins ladies and gays

this is still so weird, waking up to this news kinda shook me and i'm still wondering if she's gonna end up announcing a covers album in the morning

i wanna go against the grain here and say 2016-2020 because there's still so much we know that she made between this period that has yet to leak. bombastic songs, the political tracks, etc. of course, 2013ish would be the most interesting, but i feel like unless there's a ton we have yet to know about or hear, we kinda have the picture of that period.

I hope we get like 20-25 tracks on this thing. we've been waiting for so long

100 pages!

also give us Do Right (Studio Version) finally PLEASE

NO I WAS JUST THINKING THIS TOO. it sounds very UV to me, i was just about to say this
