so far (halfway through) this is pretty good! don't get the exhausting thing at all, but then I don't have to review this. dumb lyrics for sure.

yeah its just that it fits her persona better, jay seems like he's acting
― challop and a muff (deej), Saturday, November 27, 2010 1:19 PM (1 hour ago)
yeah this is right - not that he's the only old dude to bite new trends but jay chameleonically mimicking some of the worser rappers out there is particularly distressing and embarassing

wish this album would arrive sooner from amazon so i could join in the discussion, i feel so left out ;_;
wish jay would run an 800 meter dash tbh, might get his breath control back

In regards to the fuss over the perfect 10 this got, didn't Discovery by Daft Punk receive like 6.7 back in the day? Metascore of 70 or so? These numbers don't really count for much a huge chunk of the time. I feel like some people need this to be an event album...it sorta completes a narritive and bitches crave resolution.

this album is very sonically interesting at times but also EXTREMELY horrible at others. overall it was a difficult record that i will never listen to again.

6.7 is about right for Discovery, I'd say.

vocoder wanking at the end of "Runaway" >> vocoder wanking at the end of "Digital Love"
I'll take "agonized" emo screaming through a vocoder over vocoders trying to sound like guitars any day.

also, I would rather an album make me feel exhausted as in 'partied out' than 'ffs, when will this track end?!'. Discovery's mediocre rating doesn't reflect it's cultural significance. I mean if you ask most people, I doubt many of them would rate it two stars.

it really is galling that Taylor never ONCE came to his defense

― spidermark, Sunday, 28 November 2010 19:57 (thirteen years ago) link
she may not have come to his defence, but it's not like she actively capitalised on it either. she mentioned it once, and then refused to talk to the press about it iirc & also wrote a song about it obviously, but I think it was a situation she wanted to deal with in private.

it's not like she actively capitalised on it either - do you live in the uk or something?

i mean interviews about her ordeal w/ country radio, an snl monologue, a song on her album - yeah she totally didn't milk 'this one time a black man interrupted me when i was speaking' like she was elie wiesel.

also this album is hella boring, luv "power" as a single tho
it's crazy how simultaneously belabored and lazy this album can sound. how is it doing on radio? i have a hard time picturing anything here being unavoidable like 'stronger' or 'gold digger'. then again eminem's been having huge hits with miserable sounding shit all year so who knows.
― balls, Sunday, 28 November 2010 20:33 (thirteen years ago) link

― lotta diamonds ... but prolly more display names (deej), Sunday, 28 November 2010 20:47 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm actually kind of consistently surprised at how low "Monster" is on the R&B airplay chart (currently #36 after peaking at #30) because it's felt like it's been at "hear it every time I get in the car, often as soon as I start the car" levels of heavy rotation for a while now.
