its a fundraiser she definitely meant something by it. she’s low key brainwashed- i think you might have to be to fall for a mega church where the pastor gets sued for forcing employees to give tithes

basically every religious doctrine is against like. third party divination or psychics or whatever technically but everyone pretends they can do both which ok fine but if you’re gonna PREACH obnoxious, illogical nonsense like lana just pick one of them.. cause why do i have to roll my eyes at a new hypocritical ideology every week… the bible + christianity is definitely against that but churchome is also not really a “religion” the way catholicism, baptist, episcopalism, islam, judaism, etc etc are because its just judah smith yapping so maybe he promotes seeing psychics but if he’s a “christian” he’s def not supposed to

tbh thats only a non denominational christian thing, other religions absolutely do not have instruments on the alter/stage where the leader goes. but that is def the norm for a churchome type

if your pastor moves to la to preach and tailors his message to celebrity psychology then. maybe he doesn’t care about “jesus” and is just bleeding you dumb suckers dry

plugging that damn cult again

SPEAK ON IT!!! Cause Nikki was so nasty for that shit. “they took it out of context” there is no other context for that…. And sorry to make the obligatory not a swiftie comment, I just mean I’m just not saying this defensively, it’s just obvious Taylor is not a birdbrained individual who would talk to the media about her “friend’s” love life. Making fun of another musician’s music publicly is low class too, also something Taylor or Lana wouldn’t do but that foul woman has no manners.

well both are delusional and i’d make fun of someone who said prayers healed them too

I was searching the videos on youtube to find it and then I stumbled on him postinf the link on reddit. He said she didn’t ask to use it but he’s flattered despite everyone else telling him she needs to pay up. (Which lowkey… probably. Or just a big old Beyonce bouquet of flowers.) His whole channel I think is about Long Beach, CA’s history so I think he’s just gagged to see it be mainstream knowledge.

I have mixed feelings. For a lot of those artists I think it’s them trying to flood their streaming numbers. In the early digital era it was reliant on people buying singles, but with streaming you don’t have to buy anything and can listen to a full album (not that many people do) for free. So they just pump out what they can and aren’t as discerning with track choice. It can definitely indicate low artistic integrity. For SZA, she spent about 6 years inbetween CTRL and SOS and you can tell she put care into the song versus Morgan who….. Cowboy Carter had 27 tracks BUT like 4 were interludes. And I think regardless the intention shines through on CC. So much attention was put into the production and songwriting. The music is GOOD so it’s not at all a chore to listen to. I don’t think a long album is necessarily bad. But off the top of head (=i.e. your examples), the good ones reflect intention and precision in that they spent considerable time on the album, from mixing to production to track flow. But that’s obviously a labor intensive feat and isn’t possible to achieve if you’re Drake or taylor and have been releasing project after project. On the flipside, I think super short albums also make me doubt the artist’s passion and drive. I haven’t heard Ariana’s but I get your point in it being good cause there’s no filler as that’s generally my thoughts on Guts. Dua Lipa’s doing a 10 track album, the first in 3 years or so, and she’s already released 3. Waiting for a new album of 7 songs just feels like waiting for a collection of singles or something. That plus a 4 show tour it’s like… are you just not into making music anymore? Overall if the music’s good it’s good. You shouldn’t go in aiming to be an album with 30 tracks or 15 or 10- you should do what’s natural. Quality should come over quantity, but if you’re only happy with 30-40 minutes from years of your potential studio time then :/ Something I want to learn more about is how music is consumed today and how streaming has affected not just like, marketing tactics and sales numbers but the actual music making itself.

is that her old doctor?

omg it was supposed to be unzipped with a handkerchief

I’m a late bloomer, (but to be fair i was 10 in 2012). Heroin, I stanned immediately.

seriously? omg i was chastising her but people were potentially dying …

No don’t be sorry! It’s the right video! I wasn’t trying to direct my rudeness at you I was rolling my eyes at Lana. You guessed exactly right thank you

Seven years and the only one she mentioned in here that she put out is say yes to heaven and she never acknowledged the release

well yes but it’s weird that it wasn’t in the back track either

UMMM pop emergency. I have another yap session- I meant to bring this up last night! In without you, both her live vocals and the backing track routinely left out “if you wanna see me fall” and “your love is deadly,” at least this week. Do we think she feels uncomfortable singing that now cause they are an unhealthy view of love/indicate abuse, a la “I won’t sing he hit me and it felt like a kiss anymore,” or was she merely trying to avoid controversy? OR is she taking away the strictly romantic aspect of the song to highlight her using to song to say the fame and money mean nothing without love from family, friends and even the fans and her artistic vision? I lean towards this one frankly, but also think she’s acknowledging love doesn’t involve breaking yourself and that family and friends generally don’t ask for that the way a romantic partner might. I think including the china doll line but not “if you want to see me fall” is saying, yes I can be a fragile, vulnerable person but I won’t let that be taken advantage of. Don’t mistake my kindness for weakness. orrrr am i overthinking and it’s a fluke? (psa: i don’t think those lines glamorize abuse. they’re also some of my favorite lyrics)

you’re welcome <3

they sang along loud as hell to ARCADIA like people were right when they said weekend 2 has less influencers

I think they’re jealous maybe since they went weekend 1

I keep having to remind myself they couldn’t do much with the hair because otherwise those gorgeous veils wouldn’t have worked and the veils are an obvious must have.

my sleep deprived addition: Neil Young’s song is essentially about musicians fearing fading away and having to fight that, and how fame can come and go so easily. It references so many artists who lived fast and died young, and burn out/fade way was quoted in Kurt’s suicide note. It’s very much a sister song to Did you know… I think it definitely corresponds with the hope ending looking like a funeral. https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/neil-young-song-about-johnny-rotten/ this is an article i like about it and there’s more reading you can do on the meaning. it’s not as cunt as jealous girl but understanding the message to this song is integral to her whole setlist i think. I’m too sleep deprived to really get into it but like!!!

I can only make out one of the books (thanks to reubengotto posting it on his story) from hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have but i have it. The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman by Hunter S. Thompson - He was a major figure in the counterculture movement and created Gonzo journalism, in which the journalist becomes the central figure in the story and essentially blurs fact and fiction. Thompson is known for his substance abuse and other destructive behaviors. He also sexually assaulted at least one woman. i’m doing this little analysis but watch it turn out that it was just a random book they had packed to read on the trip down.

ohhh thanks i was perplexed why we hadn’t seen him! And who tf let him drive the golf cart!
