I'm chronically country-brained and really like it but I can see why it doesn't land with everyone. If you already like fiddles and banjos and the 90s/00s nostalgia kick a lot of mainstream country women are in right now then it kind of rules, but the gay perspective is really the only thing setting it apart otherwise.

I was already excited today about Chappell and the new Lil Nas X song, but on top of that Jade has another single out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdCImNtfBMg Pop music... I love you pop music... edit: I don't know why this is age-restricted. I guess because the title is "FUFN (gently caress You For Now)"?

New Chappell is cute. That’s all I got. I never really dig singles until I hear them in the context of the album unless its an 11/10 track like Good Luck Babe or Kendrick’s Euphoria

Today was a really great day for new songs, even beyond Chappell and Jade Selena Gomez made an album with her new beau and it’s quietly some of the most fun music she’s made in a while. Today she placed her tongue firmly in her cheek and dropped a Lana pastiche about LA, it’s very good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJG5CWsne8E Lil Nas X is still pop according to Apple Music and he’s been dropping a single each day this week, culminating in probably his best song since Montero https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQ0UPCY5XZY Cian Ducrot (Irish, obviously) is not a name I’ve heard before but this is an unironic throwback to like, cheesy early 70s teen pop and I dig it a lot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAcnWqi1vdA Tom Grennan thinks men need to talk more openly about their mental health struggles and found the best way to communicate with them: an uptempo 80s throwback that wouldn’t be out of place on Miami Vice https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1k-SvvVExo this is just some good clean EDM that I liked https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQMcOb0Uxzc

It’s very horror-tinged and dramatic , Gaga-esque theatricality in a way different from Chappell, who leaned into Gaga’s connection with queer culture and pop star as artifice.

Yeah, I get more excited for the album with every single that comes out. I think "FUFN" might be my favourite of hers so far – I know it's not as ambitious as "Angel Of My Dreams" but it is just a stone cold banger. Have to admit that "Hotbox" has been actually getting the most play from me today though. I can't tell if he's sampling Pharrell or just cribbing from him very heavily but it's good stuff!

finally got around to new gaga and it’s pretty good! i’m not predisposed to liking her style as opposed to the sweeter, peppier sounds of carly sabrina et al but there are some real bangers here, especially How Bad Do U Want Me and Perfect Celebrity

Had a stressful week during the Mayhem launch, so I only started listening a few days ago, but I'm already hooked. It's giving me some of my favorite tracks from TF/TFM/BTW, many that I always thought were underappreciated (e.g. The Fame, Summerboy, Highway Unicorn, The Queen). Disco Gaga and Rock Gaga are probably my absolute favorite Gaga "modes" and this has plenty of both. I also love how much she's able to channel so many legendary artists, but Gaga-fying their style. So it's kind of a pastiche of not just those artists, but her most iconic eras. There's not a single skip for me, but I do have clear favorites. So far, Perfect Celebrity, Zombieboy, LoveDrug, and Shadow of a Man are the ones I've put (individually) on repeat. They just get me into a trance. Gaga channeling NIN and MJ are things I never knew I needed in life. Garden of Eden is probably the most 2009 Gaga track, in the best way. Vanish into You reminds me a lot of Speechless, which holds a special place in my heart because that's the song that really made me appreciate her as an artist. Killah is probably the most out of the box track. I love funk, I love Gaga, but I never even thought about Gaga doing funk. And it works so well. I've seen mixed reception for The Beast, but I live for how melodramatic it is and she sings the crap out of it. I love her delivery whenever she says "You can't hide who you are, 11:59". Blade of Grass sprinkles a bit of Joanne/ASIB Gaga to the album and adds another kickass piano ballad to her repertoire that'll kill live. Now, if I had to pick the most polarizing tracks for me, one would have to be How Bad Do U Want Me. I don't dislike it, but it's hard not to think of Taylor when listening to HBDUWM. It's not even that I don't like that style, because that's the era of Taylor's that's most listenable for me. The song kind of feels out of place, and it's hard not to think of it as a little juvenile given it's a early 20-something Taylor song. As a standalone song, it's fun. The other one would be Don't Call Tonight, more so for musical reasons. I like the story it tells and it has one of my favorite lyrics of the album ("I can hear everything you're saying from here"). But musically, Alejandro comparisons are unavoidable, with the heavy Ace of Base influence. It feels the most by-the-numbers for me. I do like the robot voice during the bridge that reminds me of Heavy Metal Lover. Overall 9.5/10 album that I can play on repeat and never tire of, just like I did when BTW came out.

Also, despite being somewhat disappointed initially that The Giver didn't have the spoken word bridge, I've come to absolutely love the studio recording after letting it marinate. In the end, I think that part kind of disrupts the flow and country-ness anyway, and apparently she wants to ad lib that section during live performances. I never really looked up the lyrics after the SNL performance or could make out most of what she was saying, just vaguely knew the song was sapphic. Now that I know, holy poo poo, these are some of the filthiest lyrics I've ever seen without being outright profanity. I love that the lyric video frames the entire song as basically an advertisement, like 'Hey ladies. Have you never been sexually satisfied by men? Well, my services are available!". In fact, that's nearly exactly what the second pre-chorus is ("So, baby, if you never had one. Call me, baby") The discourse, though. Jesus, what is it about Chappell that invites all the most insane takes whenever she does something? Apparently her releasing a country song is an attack directed at Beyonce, or her trying to pander to a MAGA audience because she's secretly Republican. Can't a girl make a fun Shania homage about lesbian sex in peace? As for less insane takes that I nonetheless disagree with, I've seen people saying it's too country, or it's not country enough and she must know nothing about the genre. I have to assume they're Gen Z or younger and they stopped teaching the kids about Shania or The Chicks. And people saying the male voices near the end are a bad choice when it's absolutely camp as gently caress hearing a chorus of deep-voiced country men vouching for her prowess after she spent the whole song trashing them. I really hope this becomes a big hit and radio stations are forced to play something so explicitly lesbian and raunchy.

Also, did you see the person at the front filming with a 3DS? Or did I hallucinate that?

Cannot say I like this very much. Too early to call it a "flop era" but we should definitely be on flop watch. I think Ashnikko can at least be interesting, but this song is a bit boring imo and almost doesn't feel like an Ashnikko song. The REAL Goobusters posted:log off. like you actually need to log off They probably should, but in their defense, people online were super rabid about calling Chapelle Roan a secret far-right rear end in a top hat because she was too critical of Kamala Harris when endorsing her. It was kinda annoying and pretty pervasive for a hot while.
