What has yours contributed? I’m not the one constantly on mod queue. The call is coming from inside the house.

i hope you get banned for saying this like actually

For anyone who might be interested in this new interview with The Nexus that was released yesterday which mentions Lana:
 
To sum it up the talking points:
- He was sent demos from his publishing (Sony) to try and get him and Lana to work together
- She was introduced to him as Lizzy Grant but by the time they actually met she was fully transformed into Lana Del Rey
- They did a 2 hour writing session for a song inspired by Sugababes
- Lana played them an early demo of Video Games
- Briefly touches on recording Nation Anthem (Would have have been 'I Want It All' version)

This Grammy night had me crying. One of the best shows they had in a long time. How emotional I felt seeing all my faves and talented musicians in one room. First of all, the acceptance speeches by all the winners but especially Beyoncé, Chappell, Gaga, Shakira and Doechii had so much power behind them. Showing appreciation to the fire fighters, the immigrants, black women, the LGBT community, and especially trans people and making a powerful demand from record labels to support their developing artists more. 
 
It was also incredible to see all these amazing women cry and celebrate each others' wins and messages, no egos, just divine female energy at its purest and most authentic form. This is what celebrating women looks like! They cried and I cried.
 
So happy to see all the most incredible and deserving black artists celebrated. Beyoncé, SZA, Doechii and Kendrick are at the top of their game. Doechii and Bey breaking records with their wins as they should.
 
Charli, St. Vincent, Kacey, Miley, Sabrina, Chappell, Beysus, Gaga... My little homosexua heart can't take all my talented mothers winning awards all in one night. Although I would have loved to see Taylord, Billie and Raye also win just to have the full roster, it didn't feel like an upset that they lost. There will always be some who go empty handed and those amazing girls already won huge by having the biggest album, biggest song of the year and making Brits history respectively. Raye's time in America will come and she would have gave the same speech as Chappell (talking to record labels) so I felt like her message she has been sharing for years was heard on that stage. Meanwhile, the winners of those big categories had so much cultural weight and significance behind them, it finally felt like Grammys got it right and didn't feel like anyone was being robbed like it was in many previous years.
 
Congrats to Dan N*gro and Amy Allen, helping create all these amazing bops, the best producer and songwriter we have right now.
 
Lady Gaga, I love you Lady Gaga; she dropped SOTY and VOTY while having an incredible tribute performance + winning a record breaking Grammy. At her artistic peak, happiest self and looked spectacular. OGHs, trust it is going to be the most difficult year for you yet.
 
I couldn't have asked for a better outcome of artists and music to be winning this year. What an incredible year for bops. Thank you America, thank you Lady Gaga and thank you pop music.

Idk, I feel like this is way too bloated just like Taylor's Poets, so some songs starting with Opening Night never got a chance to shine. Will come back to some songs after a month or so.
Honestly looks like this album is the last chapter just for the symmetry of it making the second trilogy, cause I feel like the last time we saw The Weeknd character was After Hours and he died in that era. Dawn FM already felt different from everything previously released but the whole concept was about closing the chapter and entering something new, so perfect to put The Weeknd to the rest after it. But here we are 3 years later with an album that sounds 30% Dawn FM and 70% After Hours and brings almost nothing new to the table, yet it's branded as the final The Weeknd album.
I'm a stan and I'm sure it's going to be one of my most listened albums this year but I'm not the biggest fan of the concept for this era.

This def sounds like it was recorded in 2021. I mean this in the most neutral way possible but you can hear that she was plus-size when she sang this. It’s fierce
 
mod note: user was warned for this post

who the fuck is will stax

Looking forward to her collab with The Weeknd more than this album tbh 

Because it’s half assed and feels random AF.
 
“Eusexua is a feeling” is one of the dumbest ways to try and advertise this album. If she would have just been honest and said “I don’t really know what eusexua is , but I’m hoping to have a better understanding in this music” I’d probably be more inclined to believe anything she’s said this era. But it’s so clear she has some dire urge to be some sort of mysterious industry darling this era, it all feels calculated and soulless. The TikTok  brain marketing has payed off, I’ll give her that. But everything else is just NOT twigs. The lyrics are surface level, the production is empty, the artwork is horrific and uncomfortable to look at. (And not in the good way most of her album art is) she had YVES TUMOR in a video for some reason, but I think if they had collabed on an actual song it would’ve been amazing and completely in the spirit of “eusexua”…I don’t even wanna get started on the Nicki Minaj meetup….Even the Imogen interview was just embarrassing. That could’ve been a great moment to bring two musical geniuses together to talk about the fluidity of genre, or other things, but no they wanted to yodel in an echo chamber and call twigs’ music “pussy”  which is FINE…. But then we have to recognize the music is not as serious as the conversation we’re trying to have.
 
all in all? Chop.
 
Drums of Death is text book amazing innovative and FRESH twigs. Wish we could’ve gotten an album of THOSE instead of 4AMs. Whoever told her Room of Fools deserves to be on an album was trying to sabotage her.

oh it was bad for her…

I have arrived and am not greatful grapefruit after being snubbed 2 years in a row.

@Liz Daw Just informed me she has an explosive device planted in her rear? Should I be concerned for her health? Shall I alert security to this matter?
