three tracks in and i'm feeling the EXACT opposite to how i felt three tracks into roman reloaded

I'll be interested to see what the ILX hivemind thinks. I find Nicki pretty insufferable these days, but am willing to give the album a listen if enough people deem it worthy.
― RAP GAME SHANI DAVIS (Raymond Cummings), Thursday, 11 December 2014 14:23 (nine years ago) link
literally no surprise at all that the best songs are the bonus trax and "trini dem girls"
"truffle butter" (the sample!!!) and "shanghai" are whoa
the main album is REALLY BORING :(
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 14:27 (nine years ago) link
well it's basically her serious break-up album
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 14:28 (nine years ago) link
(the sample!!!)
was on tip of my tongue & worked it out
maya jane coles omg

the Jessie Ware track sounds nice but I can see how a whole album of that would be zzz
― Simon H., Thursday, 11 December 2014 14:30 (nine years ago) link
that ware track is nice but it sounds like it could be by anyone really. which is my fear about this album.
― StillAdvance, Thursday, 11 December 2014 14:33 (nine years ago) link
sounds like this album is exactly what i feared
― prolego, Thursday, 11 December 2014 14:33 (nine years ago) link
yeezus almighty this is 22 tracks long incl. bonus??? how many are actual album tracks?
― just a couple of assholes having breakfast (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:00 (nine years ago) link
16 on the main album
it's actually 23 tracks long but the japan-only bonus track "wamables" hasn't leaked yet
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:04 (nine years ago) link
t/s - this album vs. artpop - both are p bad imo
― johnny crunch, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:11 (nine years ago) link
feel like starting this album at such a slow pace might've been a bad move
― just a couple of assholes having breakfast (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:20 (nine years ago) link
These first three tracks are great.
― Greer, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:20 (nine years ago) link
*feeling myself comes on* whoa ok now we're cooking with gas
crying game was good too even if it was m/l at the same tempo as the first two listless tracks
― just a couple of assholes having breakfast (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:36 (nine years ago) link
All these uncredited vocalists...who is that on Want Some More? Whose doing the hook on Four Door Aventador?
― Greer, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:39 (nine years ago) link
jeremih on "want some more" i presume
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:47 (nine years ago) link
"buy a heart" really rubs in how badly this album fails on its miserable terms given that it's an offcut from a break-up album also released this month which actually makes me feel things
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:50 (nine years ago) link
ok go on then i am here to read a defence of the first three songs cuz i can't imagine one for the life of me
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:51 (nine years ago) link
and "cry on your knees" is a prism reject. the album was delayed because katy perry decided against featuring on it at the last minute
― prolego, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:53 (nine years ago) link
and nicki couldn't even be bothered to take the katy perry reference off the song ;_;
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:54 (nine years ago) link
I'm only just finishing the standard, but this feels really solid. I mean, I can anticipate certain folks hating how relatively laid back (for Nicki) a lot of this is, but I'll take that over obnoxious half-baked RedOne "bangers" that composed half of Roman Reloaded. Also I appreciate her shoving the two terrible singles Bed of Lies and Pills off to almost the tail end of the standard so you can completely ignore them.
The first three tracks aren't objectionable enough to need a defense imo.
― Greer, Thursday, 11 December 2014 15:57 (nine years ago) link
Nicki trolling Lex by making the opening stretch of this album her own belated Take Care is the meanest, most subversive thing she has ever done.
How great is "Want Some More" though
― Evan R, Thursday, 11 December 2014 16:18 (nine years ago) link
That opening stretch is rough, but any album with two features apiece from Jeremih and Meek Mill is after my heart, and the bonus tracks are solid. This is much better than the singles promised I think
― Evan R, Thursday, 11 December 2014 16:42 (nine years ago) link
Loving this anti-lex album.
― longneck, Thursday, 11 December 2014 16:43 (nine years ago) link
i never knew so many people wanted drizzly r&b from nicki, wasn't that the stretch of roman reloaded that literally no one can remember
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 16:49 (nine years ago) link
aside from starships being on the radio, can anyone remember the majority of roman reloaded beyond the first 6 or 7 tracks?
― just a couple of assholes having breakfast (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 11 December 2014 16:50 (nine years ago) link
excuse you for overlooking "gun shot"
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 16:54 (nine years ago) link
i like the first 3 songs
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:05 (nine years ago) link
i thought the rap section of her last album was overrated though
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:06 (nine years ago) link
how long is the "rough opening stretch" cos i sat thru the first... 9 and (excepting maybe the bey) lost the will to live
― r|t|c, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:06 (nine years ago) link
i thought "feeling myself" was kind of wack, not really a great use of beyonce
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:07 (nine years ago) link
oh goodie 'buy a heart' has yung berg sampling 2014 drippy bass hit 'stay' by henry krinkle
― r|t|c, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:12 (nine years ago) link
"feeling myself" is a mess but maybe entertaining enough if it falls into place. bey sounds more like wilding-out cartoon-voiced nicki than nicki does at any point
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:12 (nine years ago) link
i forgot bey was there and just liked it as a fake kendrick jibber jabber thing
― r|t|c, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:14 (nine years ago) link
ugh even the traditional trini bubbler is on some washed out mixpak tears shit
― r|t|c, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:16 (nine years ago) link
haha now i see that this album is a extremely extended shaggy dog joke prelude to 'anaconda', v good nicki
― r|t|c, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:19 (nine years ago) link
this album makes "anaconda" sound AMAZING
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:20 (nine years ago) link
alright, finished now, this is the worst album of the year, peace

it really does and i was not that into anaconda when it first dropped tbh
there have been far worse records this year but it's p mediocre overall, not a surprise
― just a couple of assholes having breakfast (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:33 (nine years ago) link
twitter seems to be weirdly enthusiastic about this album huh
― lex pretend, Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:35 (nine years ago) link
actually "feelin myself" beat is dope, reminds me of the "rich as fuck" beat
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 11 December 2014 17:36 (nine years ago) link
nicki quoting "coco" will age well
