― police patrol felt the smell of smoke and found that goat burns (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 1 March 2016 17:33 (eight years ago) link
got tickets to see her in 2 weeks; lookin at the setlist it looks like 2/3 of it is stuff from "Joyride" which is v frustrating bcz I have no way of hearing it first!!
― police patrol felt the smell of smoke and found that goat burns (Stevie D(eux)), Tuesday, 1 March 2016 17:35 (eight years ago) link
"Bated Breath" came up on shuffle for me the other day, and I was reminded how much I love that track. I hope that even a little bit of her upcoming material skews that way (though I doubt it will).
― pitchforkian at best (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 1 March 2016 18:26 (eight years ago) link
holy shit she was SO GOOD tonight!! She was giving serious Aaliyah and Janet and voice and moves and style and everything. She is a really, REALLY talented performer. Also she did this weird thing where she played a ton of songs but only played like 2 minutes of each of them? Is this a thing that ppl are doing these days?
― sexy dander (Stevie D(eux)), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 03:32 (eight years ago) link
Ugh I've got tickets to see her tomorrow night way the hell across town, and the stupid DC metro just decided to shut down for 30 hours. Feelin stymied.

dude get a lyft get a cab get whatever, it will be so worth it i promise you

Spending so much money on shows and cabs this month but, damn, it's hard to resist.

Why is the metro shutting down tho??
― sexy dander (Stevie D(eux)), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 03:44 (eight years ago) link
Some vague "safety concerns" RE random shit catching on fire. Metro just sucks in general.

i know beyoncé does this a lot, certainly it's happened a lot at rap shows i've attended in the past
but yeah tinashe was super excellent when i last saw her and i want to go see her again, she's coming here in may. but SERIOUSLY WTF IS GOING ON WITH THIS NEW ALBUM?!?!? i mean she's got a worldwide hit now with the snakehips thing just cut the girl some slack and let her drop the record
― art baengels (monotony), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 06:25 (eight years ago) link
i've never heard the snakehips song and it's not on her album so i dunno why it would help her. clearly she's trying to get another solo single on the level of "2 On" and that hasn't happened yet.
― ODD FUTURE WOLFGANG VAN HALEN ON BASS (some dude), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 09:14 (eight years ago) link
it's been huge here and also in the UK. feel like if zara and mnek can cross over into the US then surely it's only a matter of time before the snakehips one does
― art baengels (monotony), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 13:09 (eight years ago) link
a bunch of tracks leaked this week. leaks and delays, living up to that New Ciara/Cassie status!
really hate the snakehips song
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Wednesday, 16 March 2016 13:50 (eight years ago) link
the snakeships song is close to being a hit in the US. it's in the spotify top 50 and was number 1 on the bubbling under chart. it seems fine.
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 16 March 2016 14:49 (eight years ago) link
that Snakehips thing is like the worst Mumfordcore direction anyone could go in and I'm glad I've managed to find it easy to distance her from it
― boxedjoy, Wednesday, 16 March 2016 22:35 (eight years ago) link
lol this song is party-hating Daria-core like Alessia Cara enough that it probably could be big in the US
― ODD FUTURE WOLFGANG VAN HALEN ON BASS (some dude), Thursday, 17 March 2016 02:18 (eight years ago) link
It's funny bcz so many of her songs are just about how much she loves to drink/smoke/party/whatever
― sexy dander (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 17 March 2016 10:52 (eight years ago) link
Oh my god, I hate this Snakehips song.

stevie, had to sell my ticket; w/ metro down it just wasn't doable :(
livin in regret!

her tour has been cancelled and looks like she is being made to re-record the album :(

What the fucking fuck :(
― boxedjoy, Thursday, 7 April 2016 10:48 (eight years ago) link
oh shit i totally did not read between the lines here!! I just assumed she'd gotten behind on the album, not that it was in the can and she's now being made to re-record it. That fucking blows.
― sexy dander (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 7 April 2016 12:28 (eight years ago) link
yeah, she said on facebook the album was finished but her label rejected it & is demanding new songs for it
― ufo, Thursday, 7 April 2016 12:39 (eight years ago) link
goddamn she says she hasn't even seen the cover, either!
― sexy dander (Stevie D(eux)), Thursday, 7 April 2016 13:46 (eight years ago) link
i always thought the existence of such a fully-formed, distinctive album as aquarius was something of a miracle for an r&b singer of tinashe's level and it seems we're all being made to pay for it. truly the New Cassie/Ciara
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Thursday, 7 April 2016 15:10 (eight years ago) link
label should just skip this part where they try in desperation to get her one more pop hit and just fast forward to the part where she makes her carly rae jepsen move as a pop star for indie rock fans
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 7 April 2016 15:12 (eight years ago) link
ha, Jordan is spot on.
I'm less bummed about this than the rest of the thread, though. As much as I want another Aquarius I want another "2 On," too.
