i dont think VB was about sean

yes theres so much sampling from recent work. even in taco truck the “caribbean blue in sweater weather” sounds like a reference to “youre in the wind im in the water” from cocc. taco truck shouldve definitely been a full song, leaving off VB. also, like someone pointed out earlier, the bartender melody in fingertips. yeah im not sure if laziness is the right word but its just odd. parts of the album sound fresh and others sound like a carbon copy of what we’ve heard before. i know lanas capable of creating new things so its not a testament to her talent but maybe her level of effort? i still think the album is good and i come back to some songs but yeah… this realization im having is making me feel a bit differently about the album.

there’s literally no reason to insult someone’s intelligence lmao…… im not saying they serve no purpose however, there are so many melodies, lyrics, samples, and literally an entire song that were taken from her past work on this album. a reference here n there is cute but i mean… the sheer amount of references is taking away from this albums originality.

this might be a hot take but does anyone else feel like all the references/samples of her past work are a little lazy? i swear i hear a new one everyday

n maybe itll get her voice back to the deep raspy tone but fr she should just stop smoking anything. i want her to live forever

or the “powerlifting”….. i dont think we’ll ever know

i feel the same. i liked grandfather for its vibe when i first heard it but after listening more n realizing how unfocused the song is i dont like it as much

now why did they facetune her…..

wow this is beautiful i NEED HER TO USE GUITARS LIKE THIS AGAIN

shes so quirky 🤪

yeah it gives off the whole “teenage edgelord” vibe that used to be a thing. i do wonder how grimes found the account though as it looks to be private?

this is also how i feel. im faulting her for following the page but i had no idea that 4chan post existed until today. i know shes internet savvy but i feel like you wouldnt know what that post was referencing unless ur involved in that crowd and on the internet 24/7

wow…. ive loved her for over a decade now. this is beyond disappointing. no excuse for following the page but are we sure she even knows about that 4chan post/what that post is referencing??

yeah could someone post screenshots of this? i would hate to unstan over something without concrete evidence lol

i am one of the people that doesnt love this album but i totally agree that its in a separate realm. it doesnt feel right comparing it to her other albums and for that reason, i try not to. i miss her world building and more structured songs but thats not what this album is trying to be. it’s completely separate from that n i can respect it.

wait why are we so sure its tomorrow?

omg??? why does it sound like some random ass person

the way this title or some form of it will never die

that sounds like “15 tracks with additional interludes” i dont think theyd mention the interludes if they were removed

i have absolutely no clue that song is a total mystery to me. even though it sounds beautiful, the lyrical content is so confusing makes makes the song less replayable for me

the people in quotation marks

kim being casted is ICONIC but i fear her acting will be horrible

you sure dared to say it

not when bb exists. OB isnt in my top 3. NFR is #2 for me

im so glad shes back but i wish she’d react to the most requested music first
