People are so eager to tear Melanie down. It's kind of funny to a degree to watch how desperate they are grasping at straws, but it's mostly sad. Like, they've invented CP claims against her, as well as a rumour that the rape allegation number went from 1 to 6? (It's still 1). And people on TikTok are just running with it? She'll recover, but it's gross how the internet finds it so easy to distort and defame something just because they're bored and want to feel morally superior.

We need Not That Ugly

Im happy charli is getting recognition but all this noise for an album that’s not even top 3 of her discog is insane 

Angel of My Dreams sounds better tbh

I'm obsessed with this music video
 
Especially the part from like 1:46 — 2:30, I keep replaying that 
 
The song itself is good. The subject matter and switch-up gives me slight Cruel Youth - Devil in Paradise vibes ?

Unfortunately, copyright strikes sometimes show false/incorrect titles after being uploaded under that title multiple times. A more recent example of this is Like That by Ariana Grande, which everyone called "Jada"— she only says that once in the full song, and we know it's not the actual title, fans made it up when only a snippet was available online.
 
Something similar also happened with a few Melanie Martinez songs several years back, being detected under fake (but frequently used) names.

It's not OK, but why are we acting like it doesn't go both ways? Melanie got 10x the hate when the allegation initially came out. Nothing really came of it, people moved on, and now history is repeating itself since there's a new audience on TikTok. Melanie still gets harassment from Timothy's supporters, and vice versa, that's how it's always been since 2017. But it's always "Melanie needs to defend her against the hate" and never the other way around -
 
People fail to realise they have both, and still do, experience online vitriol. TH supporters were spreading around leaked revenge porn of Melanie in 2017 from when she was barely 18 as "revenge", they're currently spreading Melanie's address on Twitter, calling her black boyfriend racial slurs and trying to contact her parents. And of course death threats, but like who's surprised, it's the internet. Are we urging Timothy to speak up and defend her though? Because she hasn't.
 
Also there's no "new" situation; it's the exact same story from seven years ago being retold on a new platform. There is no information beyond what was already known and said back then. We had seven years, and people have brought it up constantly since then, so it's not like anyone forgot. Maybe it's a true enlightening for some people, but IDK... the sudden outrage just because it's trending on TikTok is giving faux activism to me.
 
I wish there were a real solution to this, but they've both already made multiple statements. It's been nearly 10 years since the alleged incident, there's no new information, no action being taken. I'm not sure where either of them should go from here.  

like it still sucks

Woman's World isn't that great, but I feel like it's not that bad either? I think most of the hate stems from its Dr. Luke production credit rather than the song itself
 
And also, since everyone keeps comparing them; Kesha's Joyride isn't any better, it's actually worse IMO. Although I'm not crazy about either song

Is the massive amount of material with us in the room right now, miss XCX?

THIS SONG IS SO GOOD... it's been on loop for me today

I'd live for it, but also, she got so much backlash from Piggyback — so in the grand scheme of things, it probably wouldn't be a good look 💀 the best thing for her reputation would be an attempt to properly clear her name / work something out with Timothy. 
 
Many didn't appreciate Piggyback since they felt that releasing a song, or "diss track", was inappropriate and an attack towards Timothy. I have no issue with the song itself though, since it was a free release (meaning she made no profit whatsoever from the situation) + music has always been her main form of self-expression. If Timothy released a song about the allegations villainising Melanie, those people wouldn't have an issue, it would be "you go girl for standing up for yourself!" — It's hypocritical and wack. I do wish she did more to defend herself though.

I don't think Melanie will address it again, she's moved on, but I think it's the opposite for Timothy. Her entire career is based off tearing Melanie down, all of her teen stans that she's friends and interacts with have "why Melanie Martinez is problematic" threads pinned at the top of their Twitter feeds. In her text messages with Globelamp () she was talking about how jealous she is of Melanie, and how hurt she was that Melanie cut her off and ended the friendship.
 
Timothy actually told a fan on TikTok a few weeks ago that she's "hopefully dropping new music soon"; this would be the first time since 2019, as she's primarily focused on her Onlyfans and prostitution work since then. I would hope this isn't the case, but if she felt the need to speak up again as a form of promotion for her own musical work—like how the initial allegation was announced only 1 month after she dropped her debut solo single—then that's very sad; she needs peace.
