Personally when I see a huge slab of words stick together in one block online, I skip it and think to myself (tl; dr)

Exactly. At first i thought they have some sort of great strategy for her this era, but it's turning out to be a bit of a mess. The messy, ever changing VAGUE release date for "West Coast" and The album itself. (the mess that was her website when they updated it with the false dates) I think that Interscope didn't expect "West Coast" to do as well as it did in the U.S .That's why there was no american radio premiere or any sort of radio deal, no big promo at the launch week either. I think they thought "West Coast" is going to be another Ride. They underestimated HA POWAH. The same thing happen with her U.S tour. They have to add more dates and expand some of the venues because they didn't expect the huge demand for her. This is like de ja vu. It happened before when Young and Beautiful was released. If I remember correctly, the song was supposed to be sent to radio station for airplay a month before the film. but they didn't bother because they thought it's going to flop digitally. But they were wrong as the song shot to the top 10 on iTunes and like ONE DAY later. They advertised it on ALLACESS for immediate impact to radio stations but it was too fucking late because the song peaked digitally already.

Try listening to West Coast new mix then listen to something like "Blue Velvet" The UTTER shock. The difference in vocal mixing is just ...... Rant over. :-*

Seriously, It makes me PHYSICALLY uncomfortable listening to the new mix. I feel suffocated, squeezed, squashed, strangled even when the chorus hits. And let's not forget the dying sound when she sings "your Looveeeeee" the low one right next to the high. She sounds like she's dying in the new mix. The original did an amazing job of masking it. Now she sounds REALLY nasally on the verses. Horrendous. I can't imagine ANYONE buying that new mix and listening to it comfortably without feeling weird and chocked. Interscope fucked it up so bad. They were very quick and smart to replace "Ride" and "Burning Desire" with a buttery smooth soft to the ears better quality one. why are they so DUMB now? Replace a great smooth song with a rather Jarring SHARP version. My god.

UGH, I HATE the new mix on itunes. I highly doubt people will spend their hard earn coins on that bad quality mess. Hope it flops. Interscope their messy ways. Why cant they keep that filtered mess for RADIO ONLY or release that edit separately and keep the flawless SMOOTH DREAMY original. the new mix is AWFUL. Every thing is sharp to the point that it's like needles jabbing to my ear drums. The Chorus is a disaster. It's too sharp. it sounds too FILTERED too crisp. She sounds like a GOD DAMN FROG on slow motion for god's sake. Who the HELL approve that mess. IF they want to clean up the vocals why can't they professionally remaster the vocals. It legit sounds like they edit the new mix with a cheap 99cent iphone app and send it straight back to the store. PRAYING that the official video contains the original audio NOT that mess. I'm done/disappointed with this era before it begins.
