Yes anti is such a part of the dna now (tho of course that is a pastiche itself cf “needed me” being even better than the real thing Kehlani)

the songwriting on this is self-evidently very strong but on my first listen i thought the production was a little too generic in a way that is in line w/ how it's being described here but viewed less positively. some of this stuff reminded me of like... rita ora's early singles.
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 3 April 2018 20:36 (six years ago) link
Pretty sure it's self-produced...from what I remember, her beats used to be more of a focal point than the songs, maybe it's flipped on this?
― change display name (Jordan), Tuesday, 3 April 2018 20:41 (six years ago) link
theres a generic-ness sure
i like that about it though, kinda what i mean by trash electro

― Tim F, Tuesday, 3 April 2018 21:12 (six years ago) link
i find myself wishing this was more lush in places... there's something thin and plastic about like "wild beach" or "morning light" or "game" that doesn't quite sell the songs the way they deserve imo (this is a personal prejudice tho)
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 3 April 2018 21:35 (six years ago) link
the first 3 songs are really strong tho

"mooo" is not parody but there's a mix of ridiculousness and songcraft as well as a toying w/ rap's slang and conventions in a way that signals a deep immersion and appreciation that reminds me a lot of why i loved "lemme smang it" so much

"I’ve used horrible derogatory and hateful words towards people out of ignorance. I just want you guys to know that you’re incredibly special and I hold you dearly to my heart. I’m sorry for anyone I’ve offended or hurt deeply. You all are worth love and support,” she wrote in one now-deleted Notes app apology on Tuesday night (Aug. 28).
seriously what is this shit, she called tyler the creator and earl sweatshirt faggots in 2015 and that somehow justifies "cancelling" her (such a stupid term) or that vile kind of backlash only the internet can deliver?
Obviously, what she said is indefensible and her apology was tone-deaf, a fact that was quickly pointed out on social media.

the attitude of those fans reminded me of the Mitski blow up when she asked people not to record entire shows on their phones a few weeks ago; massive entitlement from young fans. honestly when I look at any (usually female) musician's twitter or fb followers I fucking cringe with the 'bestie' shit and the deranged amount of importance fans put on their parasocial relationships. I'd fucking quit too.
― akm, Saturday, 26 March 2022 19:19 (two years ago) link
yeah music fans have always had disordered relationships with artists to some degree but the way in which such emotions can be directly expressed to the artists — who in turn feel compelled to “engage” with their fans — nowadays is clearly unhealthy

the disgust i'm seeing from some online at her recent statements is so intense, but i don't think anything she's said is that outrageous. like, sure, it's imprudent and disrespectful to say those things openly, but she's definitely far from the only artist who feels that way

(despite the URL saying 'boyfriend' there is nothing in that article about her boyfriend)
I ran across some twitter nonsense about her boyfriend though the other day, which, despite dozens of people calling him a 'manipulator' and 'gaslighter' no one was able to offer any actual details about what that meant other than that he's a twitch streamer who got people to do shit for him for free which...maybe people shouldn't get so invested in twitch streamers that they are doing shit for free?
