Is it not bird noises he recorded in Brazil 😭

[Rorman Nockwell 53,749]

I told him I didn't like the squeaky noise and he read it but didn't reply

It’s so good, I balled my eyes out 😭😭😭

He really looked at his sister’s elegant poetry recited over subtle backing music on Violet, and chose violence instead. 
 

(Although to be fair, “there is no life before love” is very Lana coded; the Grants must all be romantics)

help im scared to listen to it 

[Brooklyn Fetus 1,749]

bjork get out of the floor...

[CHATEAU MARMONT 934]

i'll say i liked the instrumentals though - loved the funk beat- but it took me away from the lyrics i think it would work for an actual song instead of reciting the lines

also 4 min is too much 

[Glitter Boy 16,209]

lmao I didn't like it and probably won't listen again but we still love you Charlie  

[Wryta Thinkpiece 3,342]

The poem is great, very abstract writing style that I'm totally into. The instrumental is interesting, despite that one sample that's really distracting. His voice also sounds like it's been slapped on top of a fully flattened track, rather than being mixed into the  music. I just think it all clashes with each other. I would've been in favor of a more trippy, atmospheric instrumentation that allows the poetry to come forward.

If I remember correctly, he had shared months ago about having a reconnection with his faith - with that in context, the undercurrents of self-discovery and transformation shine.

I'm here for more; this project feels more experimental in its current state, but I think once he finds what he's really aiming for, it's going to be fantastic.
