She had a bunch of label issues because they wanted a hit single out of her before she was allowed to release an album. She never managed to get one and eventually got dropped by the label, after which she just disappeared for a few years. Once she came back, it was with sporadic singles as an independent artist since she didn't have the resources to release an album yet, so she kept up with just singles while getting an album together over the next few years. The re-recordings of "I Took a Little Something" and "I'm Gonna Get You Back" (retitled as simply "Get You Back" on The Lost Ones) were nods to the journey. They were songs she loved that had always been in the back of her mind as songs that deserved to be on an album, when it was finally released. The lyrics were also changed to reflect her new perspectives.

The Kill, Eyes Closed, Impossible and Ooh La La are Jessie Ware songs. Did you get these on Last.fm or something? If so, it’s probably just a faulty scrobble.

It's 11 new songs that leaked today. The 4 previous singles would also be included, making it 15 total songs.

Rick's website had a section that was theoretically not publicly accessible, which he used as a server for file storage. Basically all the final cuts of songs he'd done work on, going back 5-ish years were uploaded there. There was a song player on the public-facing portion of his website which streamed songs from that server, so people just followed the URL from the files in the player and ended up on the "private" section of his website. There was no password protecting the server itself. He did eventually individually password protect some of the files there (all the Lana and Lykke Li tracks he'd uploaded), but the damage was already done, as people had been watching the site for months before he put the passwords on. He also only had "Black Beauty" posted for a few days before removing it, so he clearly knew people had access. Someone eventually posted a link to the server publicly and all 5 songs were leaked, in short order. There's also other random tidbits, like the fact that "I Don't Wanna Go" was under the heading "Black Leather Moonlight" in his files and the file itself was labeled "Tonight", which is where we learned about both of those alt titles for it. Tons of other artists' work was there too, completely free to download if you had access. No passwords on anything but Lana and Lykke Li files.

Hence why I said it was in the eyes of the voters, not objectively. It’s the air of “high art” that a lot of them look for.

Had a great summer, actually, without resorting to clubbing my problems away. Sobriety is wonderful and I highly recommend it!

Again, doesn’t matter. You guys have a horse in this race. The Grammys didn’t agree. 99.9999999% of the engagement the album received outside of Charli’s hyper-parasocial fanbase was from people taking the concept at face value and using it as an excuse to have a crazy party and act stupid while wearing green.

I have and I stand by my opinion. “Emotionally complicated” music about doing cocaine, beefing with people in the industry, fantasizing about bombing the Grammys and mourning a dead friend, among other things. Big whoop. It was never a contender. Ever. Critics are soft on pop music now because of crazy fanbases and Charli’s is one of the craziest.

Genuinely, you guys are crazy if you thought Charli was ever a contender in AOTY. The Grammys were never going to give a cocaine-centric party album that prize. It’s a slot considered to be reserved for only “high art” (i.e. serious, intentional, mindful, representational work) amongst a lot of the voting base and Brat does not clear that bar. Doesn’t matter what the cultural impact of the art was like outside of the voters’ bubble.

Encourages people to listen to figure out the features, because it’s publicly stated that there are “secret features”. It gives a little extra boost to all the tracks.

If those two are your favorite songs, I'd definitely recommend listening to their respective albums, Wounded Rhymes and I Never Learn. Lots more in the same style on each one. As for getting into the rest of her discography, I'd say continue with the singles on her debut album, Youth Novels, then do the rest of the album, if those appealed to you. The later parts of her discography are tougher to crack. So Sad, So Sexy is a bit more commercial and conventional and its accompanying Still Sad, Still Sexy EP doesn't add a whole lot to the experience. Her latest album, Eyeye, is very heavy, sonically spare and vocally soft. Can be a bit tough to enjoy, as it's not nearly as melodically driven and serves more as a tonal work.

Part of it is depersonalization. They view immigrants as subhuman and unworthy of fundamental human dignity and respect.

Two songs written for the Godfather of Harlem Season 4 soundtrack were registered. Season 4 premieres sometime during spring of 2025, so the soundtrack should drop around then.
