^^^ there are some other bad songs on that lis, but "Billionaire" is just another level of shite. but still, his taste doesn't bother me nearly as much as his racial angst

The comments in that savage column are this OMG BRAGGIN 2010 faux-naïveté bullshit like "Ive never heard ANY of these songs" and "WHO IS THIS 'Katie Perry'" which is like cool Internet post-millenial white-boy version of "I don't even OWN a tv" v. 2.0

The savage column was a pretty entertaining troll, I thought. And its not like he was without smart things to say about eminem and gaga in particular.

All of those songs are bad.

Isn't that rap now? All of these monotonous rap songs are playing in Panera Bread cafes and suburban basements all over the country. Usher, B.o.B.—they're today's Pat Boones, boring and safe—so... brown-bread.

did he mention he was a theater queen?
Um...so having it in HQ makes a big difference, as opposed to whatever the shitty webrip we had before was. It's not as stellar as the first two albums, but it's far more impressive (and risky in some ways) than I initially thought.
Gotta spend more time with it to figure out what she's on about half the time, but the sonics are clicking with me...something about the oppressive and abrasive noise combined with the disgusting oppressive humid weather this week are a lethal combination.

I listened to the tracks she has posted right now on her myspace page this morning. I think it has all or most of the tracks from the new album. I gotta say, I'm liking it. Definitely a pretty big departure in terms of sound from the previous two. The noisiness suits her well. It sounds modern, not just like some post-punk stuff getting recycled.
― Moodles, Wednesday, 7 July 2010 17:50 (thirteen years ago) link
sounds like a hot mess imo

the first part of teqkilla always makes me think of that mr show sketch where the dalai lama is battle rapping at the fat kid's summar camp
― emotional radiohead whatever (Jordan), Wednesday, 7 July 2010 17:52 (thirteen years ago) link
I guess I kinda like the hot mess aspect of it on first listen. The tracks that sound like actual songs are the weakest part to me.
I need to spend more time with this though before I can really make any semi-intelligent comments about it.

I don't know why, but the song that she did with Sleigh Bells, Meds and Feds (where she used the riff that is already used on a song in Treats) really bothered me. The Sleigh Bells version made me much happier...

i thought that it was gonna get in the low 7s, like, this has some real shit, but some real bangers, and is generally not the greatest direction for her
but i haven't listened to the album yet and underestimated its terribleness
― hoos gossage (J0rdan S.), Monday, 12 July 2010 06:27 (thirteen years ago) link
I thought the first single was garbage, but was embarrassed to say it cause the sample was for a cool band i was supposed to know about but had never actually listened to.
