Nightmare

I'm forever fascinated by Pitchfork's grip over pop fans. I've watched people on Reddit rave about an album only to suddenly go lukewarm if Pitchfork scores it low.

Hot Girl (Bodies Bodies Bodies) is so brat coded

brat will convert me if the music's good

i promise you all that just because something looks simple to you it doesnt mean work was not put into it and its void of symbolism... i think the cover is very good and just the thing this project needs but im afraid that by explaining myself your 16 year old they/them asses will quote it saying its not that deep 

i’m your number 1 

The way Spring Breakers smashes Von Dutch

 

guys she just played a snippet of a new song   why is nobody talking about this it’s called von dutch it’s out feb 29th apparently, it goes “i’m your number 1 i’m your number 1 i’m just living that life cult classic but it still pop i get money you get mad because the bank shut” it sounds sooo good omg  like if you agree and are excited for the new song von dutch

Just watched the video, so boring
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again that alien costume is so unflattering, the body shape it gives her looks like The Grinch and I so miss seeing her expressive face
This era has been terrible imo, it’s so soulless & non-personal, I hope whatever she brings out next in 2065  restores my faith in her as an artist but I’m not holding out much hope

high peak magnus opus mwah

Sorry but all the articles about this being psych and massive attack/Brit pop inspired when this sounds so disco pop is
 
like does she not know genres? Houdini sounds so 80s with its it’s my life guitars aswell and the 80s nostalgia is so dated now.

yall gonna have me devastated when this theory doesn’t come true 

my tinfoil hat conspiracy theory at this point is that she chose a thursday for the boiler room so she could surprise drop the album the same night and the drawn out release for the single was secretly to build hype for the album without explicitly giving anything away, which is why we still don't have a date for von dutch because she's actually dropping the whole album. this way she appeases the label and who's gonna be mad that von dutch took so long when there's like 11 other songs to listen to. her month off was to make sure everything was lined up and ready to go. seems very antithetical to the 8 month lead up to crash, "similar in its ethos" to the quick release of pop2, and very on brand for her idgaf era. so xcx6 out this friday.
 
 
 

 
 

She’s been an advocate for the STD community since Boom Clap lol where’ve you been

Von Dutch (feat. Sam Smith) out February 29 

and i feel her in the air
 

I’m literally just an insane person

WAITTTT is Spring Breakers a track she wrote for Britney??? They’re TOO many hints of it being from Britney’s POV. I broke down the lyrics:
Ik I’m reading way too into it and it’s 95% not a song that was pitched to Britney… but the coincidences…. 

Made some quick simple vinyl mocks for Von Dutch. I had kinda already started working on a cover before the actual cover dropped so expect another mockup soon!

Cover art is gorg, I like the minimal text making it look like an early aughts 12" release

So far I'm loving the visual aspect of the era. While at first I didn't fall head over heels for the pic which was on that Instagram post with the marketing ideas, it really grown on me since then, and now I can't get enough of it. And now the cover art for Von Dutch is the definition of cuntiness without even trying the least. Guess we're eating GOOD.
 

I need everyone to understand that Charli is not the one stretching out the teasing, it's Atlantic. We've seen how fast Charli works. When she's left to her own devices (pop2, hifn, etc) she gets out music VERY quickly. The label are the ones who decide when to start promotion, when to drop teasers, when the single is released etc. They want the song to go "viral" before it's released. It's just a numbers game to them, they could not care less about how exciting a rollout is for fans. If you're annoyed with the rollout process, direct your frustrations to people at the label. Charli shouldn't be the one catching strays for the release schedule that her label is implementing. 

I think she ate with the aesthetic…
wonder how’s the album cover will be now.
very interesting ladies

Queen  she's keeping the hard drives on lock in the drawer!
