And this is where I see the problem with her work with Jack, because a lot of it might sound like you've heard it elsewhere. Not that Jack can't produce a varied sound, but he's worked with so many other well-known artists that it's becoming increasingly difficult to get something completely new.

I agree with Norman, but Thunder and Dealer were some of the best songs on BB and Living Legend and Cherry Blossom were nice, might have been better if they'd been reworked too

doesn't have to be bad

Times are very different today. There are a lot more Spotify listeners, in the days of Paradise people watched more YouTube. The Burning Desire video has 69 million views compared to just 61 million Spotify streams. If you put YouTube views and Spotify streams in relation like Tough with 13/92 ~ 1/7, then Burning Desire would have almost 500 million streams today after adjustment. Sales on physical sound carriers, which were significantly higher back then, are also not taken into account.

Perhaps we should differentiate between AI-generated lyrics and AI-generated sound. Lyrics? Absolutely not. And sound? It might not be so bad to find a new interesting melody with help of AI, but what I don't like is when the whole composition or production would be AI-generated.

picsart and spotify have also commented, the holy trinity

I hope no song will be shorter than 4 minutes, but I just realized that almost every single released after Ocean Blvd has been shorter

for all those who want to vote outside the US, I can recommend the Urban VPN plugin for Firefox or Chrome

Lana should win here as she's not nominated in any of the other categories.

unfortunately geographically protected, but no problem with vpn

in fact it was much better

Creating AI-generated music is nothing special, almost anyone can do it these days. The special thing is to be original, to create something that nobody else can do, not even an AI.

I don't know why artists would use AI, because the creative work is the best part of making music.

Southern Gothic is alive and breathing

somehow I had a dream last night where August 31st was the official release date (however unrealistic that may be)

Fly didn't even make it into Spotify Top 200, we can be very satisfied with Tough

The fact that Lana never posted a snippet from another song (other than Tough) or mentioned anything else upcoming could mean that Henry is still being considered as the next release.

It's kind of sad to see how some youtubers had a lot of success in the beginning and thought they could earn money with it and live off it. And now the viewers are dwindling, the youtubers have become slaves to their sponsors and have to keep producing week for week and attract attention by any means possible.

the music video for Fly was directed by Jake Nava, who also directed Shades of Cool and High By The Beach https://www.stereogum.com/2275436/lenny-kravitz-quavo-made-a-new-version-of-fly-away-for-some-reason/music/

maybe she has decided to keep the original concept of AS&C and release it later (Christmas 2025) and therefore LDR11 has been brought forward, but there are still a few songs missing that need to be recorded

Tough >>> Fly

it shows the drought we have experienced since then
