I'm still very much cautiously excited for the album, loved A&W, loved some elements in the title track. But you've basically described the album as the natural evolution of NFR at this point and that does hinder with my excitement for the album. 

 

Spoiler

There’s something for everyone. I mean, A&W had a Lizzy Grant influence in the 2nd half. Expect the unexpected.

I'm never going to rebuke tidbits of information, but we're basically getting an album's description in details and it leaves little to no place for surprise at this point lmao. 

i mean no description is going to evoke the same feeling as actually listening to a song, i listened to A&W fully ready for what was coming but i still left fully shook. unless insiders start listing chord progressions tempo and all of the lyrics i think we're still in for a ride

Kintsugi said Peppers sounds like Angelina, but we’ve also heard it was heavily produced again (assuming they didn’t mean reproduce in the literal sense)? 
 

I guess we’ll see

 

Spoiler

Ya honestly some of info Rosemead spilled felt really conflicting with stuff Kinstugi spilled so I’m even more confused about the album now

What I'm getting from all this information is that the "hands on your knees, Angelina Jolie" sounds like the Tommy Genesis song it comes from, but the rest of the track is completely different. Kintsugi only said 'that lyric sounds like the song it's sampled from'

The only thing an insider revealed that "ruined" anything for me so far is BoZ revealing that A&W was two parts. THAT ruined the surprise. I still have zero clue what any of these songs are going to sound like. 

Tbh i always find the song descriptions from people who hear songs early are always so terribly articulated it has zero impact on my listening experience.

That’s really interesting! The song it samples isn’t my favorite ever, but I do hope it retains that fun, vibey element—holding out cautious hope for Miss Peppers

Late to the party and catching up, has Rosemead given their opinion on the album as a whole?

[Jared 3,132]

So, we're getting an uneven, unserious playlist disguised as an album? Who could've seen this coming? 

[Poor Stacy 12,095]

yeah, I'm not worried about any rankings bc they all have A&W as #1 or close to it and I don't think it'll be in my Top 3 even tho I love it (no shade A&W!!!).

She needs to go back to world building I fear

[moonbeam monsoon 1,281]

What name is sweet Charlie hiding under these days and where’s his track ranking, it’s the only pre-release opinion I care about 

[Fingertips 72,051]

Some of you heard the phrase "world building" from the Billboard interview and ran with it, without even being able to describe what it means. 

[taco truck 33,415]

Why did Kinstugi just ghost us

Honestly, that comment she made bothered me. She has it in her to do it, she basically said so. Nothing wrong with the slower/mellower music with mouthful/stream of consciousness lyrics, but knowing she knows how to do that bombastic/world building type of music, but decides not to... she's doing herself a disservice--now she's fully entitled to do what she wants, but it'd be nice if she spiced things up a little.

 

I think she could very well do both and not chose one over the other.

What did any of this information have to do with that phrase? Where is the correlation?
