    I just think it's Crazy the album will be out in November, like gurl, it's not the 2000s anymore, all of this wait for a rollout is just pointless

    I did... Livraison entre le 24 et le 26 aout. I will let you know but Fnac is one of the most famous reseller in France, and we have some stores in Italy too, so there shouldnt be any problem. So happy to finally have a physical Copy of pop 2, One of my fave records I guess they had to make a choice between Purpose and WM, because they are so similar, and they went with WM because it's a lot more radio friendly. What I would have liked between WH and SC is Miss U tho

    A question for the culture: Do we know if there is a final version for 2 Bad/Valiums on Valentine? I love what we have so much but it's obviously incomplete

    This album isnt bad by any means but affirming it had replay value over its debut week would be a lie

  12. I don't understand why you would want her to be controversial just for the sake of it.

    Same but i gained interest again when a Friend told me N1A was out
  15. Stealing every aspect of the Japanese culture Is cultural appropriation. Words like sushi, kimono, kawaii entering into a languange vocabulary in order to cover gaps in definying certain concepts is not.
  16. First of all I'm not denying the effects of cultural appropriation. I don't thing you've understood what im trying to talk about. But whatever. Borrowings, calques, and loanwords are words that migrates from a languange to another. Or from a slang to another. Or from a register to another. It's a human and natural process and people can't just stop it because of cultural appropriation. I'm not condoning Lana Del Rey
  17. I mean you're right, but you know what? Being fake woke just for the sake of it is definetely a sign of ignorance, not contextualising is a sign of ignorance, the internet and this forum is unfortunately full of it, and it's getting extremely tiring.
  18. No no. We can agree on the "Del Rey" thing bit i've read things like "you can't use sis' because it comes from the black community" and this is crazy. Yes It comes from the black community but sis and other terms coming from the black community have become so popular that we even use them in Italian as loanwords. Is that cultural appropriation? Nope. It's just how languages work.
  19. I've read something in the last pages, and I'm not gonna comment on the other aspects of it, but as a linguist This cultural appropriation thing regarding slang or vocabulary is so Stupid and ignoranti I can't even. Listen woke snowflakes, if you had any clues about how languages change and work over time you wouldnt open such silly discussions. Borrowings, calques, contaminations are common thing in linguistics. Stop using english because 70% of its vocabulary comes from french and latin words. That's cultural appropriation, except both cultural and appropriation are romanic words.
  20. Sometimes I am shocked by you saying NFR lyrics are weak or uninspired... Just because there are not many flowery tumblr cringe shit lyrics she used to write doesnt mean it's bad or less poetic. Mariners Apartment Complex is so true and powerful, How To Disappear is heartbreaking, the metaphor in Happyness is splendid and Hope is so touching. Just because they are simpler doesnt mean they're bad, in fact I think they are more genuine and they hit right home.

    This song is such a bop but she should have sung more... I want new music from her, didn't she tease an EP? Come on gurl
