blameitonme 15,674 Posted March 15, 2022 i forget but this literally happens every album cycle, people have complained about every era/mixtape except for maybe pop 2 (at the time). in a few months we will look back and be like wow crash rlly is that girl i feel like angels put n1a/pop 2/charli/hifn/etc on such a high pedestal, like don't get me wrong they are amazing but crash isn't some sort of disastrous downgrade like chill it's a new vibe that is very charlene 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shady 3,752 Posted March 15, 2022 8 hours ago, TrashMagiq said: now hold on Literally my shower thoughs. I love retro sounding music, The Weeknd has mastered it. Lana is retro but at least doesn't rip off a certain decade like many do. I feel like it's so trendy nowadays to have a nostalgic sound that artists don't want even to want to try to be original. I always think of Pale Waves and how their music is literally 2000s angsty teen main character music. Many of Dua Lipa's FN hits have very recognizable old samples which is much more likely to become a hit even among the gen x than to think of an original melody. 3 Quote I'm fucking crazy, but I'm free Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it’s obvious from what we’ve heard that charli can create better music but it’s a transitional record much in the way that people slated the Vroom Vroom Ep when it came out. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrashMagiq 58,574 Posted March 15, 2022 CRASH is a solid 7/10 for me. Def not her best or very showstopping, but I really like it and it's very replayable tbh. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bored 7,938 Posted March 15, 2022 This feels like the album she would've naturally made following Number 1 Angel if she hadn't went down a more experimental route with Pop 2. It feels like a great compromise between mainstream Charli and alternative Charli. I honestly love this album so much. 15 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bored 7,938 Posted March 15, 2022 Also replacing Beg For You with Just One Touch improves the album so so much! I don't hate Beg For You, I actually really enjoy the song but it feels like it doesn't fit on this record at all... 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
