I love that we're all ignoring the Katy x Kim collab

Update... Kesha's back in the title. Still no confirmation of what happened. I'm guessing they're going to try to sweep whatever it is under the rug because it's fixed now, but this whole thing is shady as hell.

So what do the lanaboards girlies think of this Pitbull/Kesha mess? (Kesha getting removed from the title of Timber as a featured artist.) Pitbull seems confused about it which is weird because it's his account(s) with the uploads? It's not that I don't believe Luke would be vindictive and controlling enough to get Kesha removed (and if so I REALLY hope people will stop excusing and supporting Katy & others working with him) but it seems so blatant I'm not sure. Did Kesha not want to be associated?

So what do we think of the rumors that Kim is collabing with Katy Perry? Personally I've been waiting for it for a LONGGGG time; feels like Kim is so inspired by Katy in her early musical style & aesthetics, but at the same time they're obviously such different artists and have each had so many transformations over their careers. Really hoping it's true

I'm kind of on the opposite end in that I feel like I have and I'm glad there's more! I don't follow JoJo and was pleasantly surprised by how overtly lesbian the whole video was. The majority of hate I've seen has been overtly homophobic-- whether saying she's using her gayness for clout (makes me think of that post about using transness as a shield that goes "oh awesome look at me using my shield that automatically attracts every bullet within a 100 mile radius"), insulting her for humping a woman in a music video (deeply normal and expected in straight videos), etc. I'm honestly shocked; clearly none of these people have ever seen a Hayley Kiyoko or Janelle Monae video if they think this level of sexuality is somehow unique and bad. And, like you said, it's a really cookie-cutter 2010s pop star song. I'd argue it's even a cookie-cutter "I'm a child star trying to break out of my image" song. I'm not surprised it turned out to be a Miley song! I honestly thought it reminded me of some early Selena Gomez or Demi Lovato. It's certainly no more cringe than some of the stuff Katy Perry did on Prism, which I have been relentlessly stanning. If people hate the song (or her), go ahead and hate the song (or her!), but don't make up things that aren't true about how uniquely bad it is. That's just my two cents! ...As for me, I have it on loop.

I know it's too early but what do we think the next era will be like? I'm really feeling the Drug From God, Time for a Crime, Girl Of My Dreams vibe with these more toned-down tracks... I feel like she could really pull off a mature, darker-themed album, kind of like a grown-up version of the Feed the Beast aesthetic. Something like slightly less campy Elvira?? Like if Kesha did Turn Off The Light. I'm honestly surprised how much I like these tracks given that usually my favorites of Kim's are the really uptempo ones, but we know Kim rocks a ballad, too.

Circumstances are terrible

Someone made a full AI version and honestly given the circumstances it eats... But these aren't great circumstances https://pillowcase.zip/f/3de0e12c0af7031394375954a6ce31c9

Just stayed up all night to finish the book. So sweet and so easy to read in her voice. And she said she’s “struggling” with the question of touring again—that she’s been making music and enjoying it but she doesn’t know about touring, which makes perfect sense… but it’s not a no, either. I was honestly surprised to hear she’d even consider it, and grateful, and also worried I’m not going to have the billion dollars required to see her if it does ever happen. Really glad the book is out.

Have we all heard about the k-files snippet leak of a song allegedly called Time for a Crime and recorded in 2023 (unknown whether for FTB or not)? I desperately want more... Kim's low register

OK literally this is so good! It fits more with Roller Girl and Try Again than tracks like King of Hearts or uhoh... The chorus really gives me Britney vibes <3

FINALLY a version of BAIT that has both the original uncensored lyrics and the extended breakdown!!

I'm new around here but I just wanted to compliment how effortlessly Slayyyter evokes a ~2010s Britney sound in songs like Alone and now Tear Me Open. The breathiness, the use of head voice, the themes, even the instrumentals really feel like if hyperpop was happening back when Britney made Circus. I think Brit songs like Blur are the easiest to compare them to, but generally even for just a casual Britney fan the influence is undeniable and the success at emulating that style is incredibly impressive. I've never heard an artist say they're inspired by Britney and then go on to actually sound so much like her.

I found a set on the d-site of all of them (just by searching Kim Petras Symphonic I think) but I can't guarantee they're any better than YT quality/YTrips... They're a super cute cover though so that's what I use! I absolutely can't believe she hasn't released the Symphonic Sessions as an EP at least; hoping it's just to save them for the Deluxe...

Tour news! At least two shows have been rescheduled: Phoenix from 11/2 to 11/21, and San Diego from 11/22 to 11/5. Praying she doesn't cancel/reschedule mine because I took the day/s off work At least two venues now have special "buy 3 get 1 free deals: YouTube Theater and Coca-Cola Roxy. Kim posted this to Insta: & tour starts officially in THREE DAYS (Sept. 27) in Austin!! So excited to see her perform. Still haven't made my dream setlist because I don't want to expect anything and be disappointed... I know I'll be happy no matter what she plays

I just want you to know that I have ALWAYS used EXCLUSIVELY your cover and that it is by far the best one ever made. I love how well it fits the bubblegum-pop vibe, the playfulness, the overexaggerated Euro themes... Thanks so much for sharing!! Not you accidentally solving the tracklist issue I've been having all week...

YES!! I can ONLY end Problematique with Left My Body, personally. I put Your Time To Cry after as a bonus track because I do think it does nicely that way (every time I listen to it lately I think about how we could have had YTTC instead of Alone as her retro-bop-reimagined song, but let's not talk about that). You're in good company & Kim is BACK ON TWITTER with a default icon and a bunch of posts of the shirts!! Shirts: And MORE (FULL?) STEVEN KLEIN CAR SHOOT! And her name is STILL trending on Twitter, as it has been since... what, evening of 9/18? She IS the conversation.

OK NEWS! Kim got suspended from Twitter (probably for the tits thing) & new merch dropped! Literally gagging at the shirts and their descriptions like I need real photos.

OK but when are we going to talk about how she says "mansions" like mehzhuness in Confession. I can NEVER hear "mansions" in the main vocals and I don't understand how I'm supposed to! Help?? What I heard from the uploader was that it was the highest quality available file but (like AtomicMess said) is just an early demo looping the verses. People were asking so we could at least listen to the track in HQ somehow

Literally I keep waking up so grateful that it happened... WE DID IT!!

So now that Problematique is officially out on streaming (with very few tragic exceptions)........ if YOU were making someone an "Essential Kim Petras" or "Kim Petras Greatest Hits" playlist, what would you put on it? Struggling because everything she drops truly is a banger :x

LITERALLY Problematique just doesn't feel right without Left My Body as the closer and Your Time to Cry as a deluxe track But it's okay I can just put the lossless versions alongside the leaks in my tracklist All EPs, IIRC. Kinda silly distinction given the length but I guess she wanted to make a splash with her debut album? And now look where we are I heard Keep It was never exported but I'll keep dreaming...

YES thank you! I hope we get Keep It someday... You forgot Malibu just like her team

PROBLEMATIQUE SONGS ON TOUR????

Singles: Future Starts Now FtB: Hit it From the Back Revelations Sex Talk Leaked but not on Problematique official release: Left My Body () Your Time to Cry () Hoping she just has plans for the other two (& that somehow we get Keep It) because they're too good to waste on not releasing...
