So candy is shelved 

Someone said Candy was never real anyway, it was a collection of old songs put together. There was something weird about the timeline of the documentary too that the album hadn’t even been scrapped yet?

[Glitter Boy 16,558]

So if Candy is just a collection of old songs that were thrown together but is not really in consideration for release... leak ha  

[Inferno Euphoria 6,494]

I really hope the new album is just Problématique with Brr and that jesus song stacked on it and a new album title

and the title track either reworked/removed for the sake of it *not* being problématique

Yeah like it's a really good song but wtf was she thinking making a song about how she doesn't care to be judged for working with an alleged r*pist/abuser and then naming the whole album after it

[blameitonme 15,673]

it's been 2 weeks - no video?

 

there's been 0 investment in strong cohesive visuals this rollout. i think it's really important to have strong storytelling as a pop artist - even independent artists have amazing videos nowadays on a tighter budget.

 

with other artists by the 2nd single you get a clear vibe of what the album will be from the cover art, videos, performances, paparazzi shots etc etc but literally nothing links this era

 

and she still hasn't announced anything idk i just feel like this god damn debut album is never coming out atp

 

 

[Anonymcomenter 4,675]

I actually hope the material leaked so far gets scrapped, I mean… we already have It. 
 

Hope she sees this as an opportunity to make things from scrach and actually make It work this time

Foxes had a MV shot where she just went in a circle in a crappy gas station parking lot years ago and it's got over 9 mil views to date.

 

If a local bitch like that can get it done, why the hell can't an artist coming off a huge and hot feature with radio play get the pennies together to do *literally* anything.

 

Fucking record yourself twerking on a 2000s Sony cybershot for all I care - do *something*.

Now that I've had at least 4 hours of sleep, I'm coming back to finish this thought with a "the label should/could wake up and push something/give her something to push".

I forget sometimes (maybe we all do?) that it's not just SOLELY an artist doing all the work. There's promo and advertising people. There's photographers and videographers. There's people doing a storyboard for a music video. There's producers and mastering engineers. There's a legal team checking to make sure some video or album concept isn't going to get them sued. There's managers above that whole team. There's managers above them, too.

 

You'd think the people at the top would apportion out some cash to all the people below to get all of that together, and then take it to the artist and say "congrats, we've greenlit all this shit for X # of dollars, that's your budget, we think X is a good single to put it behind, here's the slice of the pie where you put your creative input into it". And I'd expect all of that to come with a lot of persuasion and force from the label, because as someone in their roster, it's their JOB to produce content for them, at the end of the day. That's the whole point of a label/contract, right? "You fund me and my talent and make art, and you turn around and take that art and sell it, and then anyone involved gets a cut of the profits." If they don't work/produce/create, nobody is making money here, and the contract is just rotting with no revenue generation. Assets that do not asset generally make bean counters unhappy, unless they're happy to say "your contract says you owe us X, and until that's paid off, you can't even beg for money on the street without us seizing it" and just let an artist dig their own grave.

I think any failure of any of our faves to "do literally anything" comes down to more than just them as the sole entity chosing or not chosing to do shit. There's more heads involved. There's got to be.

Or maybe I'm just dense and that's not how it goes at all. I mean Azealia basically just does whatever she wants (or doesn't want) regardless of who is involved, so I guess others probably can/do too.

TL;DR - Kim's whole team should be getting something coming off Unholy notoriety here. There should be something going on - generating buzz. Visuals. A MV teaser. Interviews talking about an album. Repressing old music on vinyls. Remixes. Something. Kim can't be doing it all; there's gotta be some money hungry bastards trying to turn a buck into a buck-10 off her shit.

clarity (album) being her best work in all regards yup yup i'm sorry but it's actually true!

[sack 1,154]

her and sam actually won the grammy? a JOKE  i’m so glad kim mentioned sophie during her speech though 

[cranekiss 9,728]

flop

[cranekiss 9,728]

no bc this just further solidifies that the grammys are a joke like of all songs THAT TRAINWRECK??? i thought the grammys were accolades for artistic excellence this song is not artistic nor excellence and its not even close to being artistic excellence

 

im happy for her win and sam's win however this turns my stomach knowing that kim still stands with dr luke

[sack 1,154]

unholy has made my life significantly worse. i was so much happier before i had to hear it every fucking second. i will never forgive sam and kim for what they’ve done to me

[cranekiss 9,728]

i will say her speech was beautiful! but thats the only beautiful thing she has ever done with her voice and pen

[DeadSeaOfMercury 22,973]

I actually liked Unholy, But I wanted I Like You to win…

theyr're not. its a inside joke in the entertainment industry that grammys are the bottom of the barrel out of the big awards like oscars, tony, etc.
