Hard to believe this is coming out in a few DAYS. It all feels very

 

[Kratz]

Max Martin is a busted flush.

Go work with G:Son and Cazzi Opeia instead

 

[K.C.]

Go work with G:Son and Cazzi Opeia instead

Or AVA MAX

 

[Jark]

Max Martin is a busted flush

obsessed with this terminology

and inclined to AGREE!

(however reserve the right to change my mind once on Friday afternoon, and a second time on sunday monring when I declare the album full of busted flushes after all)

 

[funky]

I have high hopes for this album

 

[POP!]

This is her Rainbow.

 

[straightorbroken]

Genuinely thought Ralphi Rosario was dead. Arianna clearly needs her Love Profusion moment if enlisting RaRo.

 

[Pipo]

This is her Rainbow.

as in one decent, well produced, calculated first single and 10 other tracks they cobbled up together in the space of two weeks?

Good lord the ACCURACY

 

[Jark]

apparently We Can't Be Friends has production very like Trustfall. which i'm quite here for

[OutSynk]

We Can't Be Friends kind of sounds like it's gonna smash from that intro.

 

[Iguana]

Ooh ok this sounds very promising from the clips

 

[funky]

Fucking hell the whole thing sounds spectacular

A complete shift back to classic dance, pop and R&B

How fucking dare she!

 

[cwej]

Well this is exciting

This is AMAZING - and she trashed it?!!?!

 

[POP!]

 

[PercyPig]

I thought this was full of bops

 

[Iguana]

I thought this was full of bops

You will take your one bop and you will be HAPPY with it!

 

[Jark]

switching the main cover to this one was a choice



we can't be friends is that instant smash!

 

[Iguana]

Yes TERRIBLE cover choice for Spotify.

I'm up to don't wanna break up and I really like it.

 

[Jark]

true story is very thank u, next (album) coded but I like the darker current running through it. supernatural is stunning!

the boy is mine

 

[Jark]

08 bye
07 don't wanna break up again
07 eternal sunshine
09 supernatural
08 true story
09 the boy is mine
08 yes, and?
08.5 we can't be friends
07.5 i wish i hated you
07 imperfect for you
08 ordinary things

I'm impressed. a tight body of work. bright, immersive pop soundscape that suits her voice and she's singing, not mumbling. good work queen!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

No mumbling is such a relief.

 

[Kratz]

Bye is good

I’ll work my way through today

 

[POP!]

"We Can't Be Friends" is the next single. very Robyn influenced

 

[GNL]

Oh this is a stunner.

 

[dUb]

Her best album in several albums for me!

ARI UP

 

[octophone]

ARI UP

Sure!

 

[octophone]

Looks a bit BRIEF. I dare say we can expect a double LP with extra tracks at some stage.

 

[Jark]

the boy is mine + we can't be friends are really those girls! her subtle responses to the "haters" are really very classy. a queen.

 

[dUb]

Sure!

LOVE Mariette

 

[Pipo]

where's the HOUSE MUSIC?

 

[Pipo]

it's certainly a very good r&b album I'll give her that, and apparently, she was the sole lyrics writer this time around. omg her Impossible Princess

 

[Kratz]

I do wish she would capitalise though. She is plenty low-key without doing that also

 

[GNL]

This is easily her best album.

 

[RJN]

After 1 listen, bye, supernatural, the boy is mine, we can't be friends (wait for your love) FUCK

 

[Berly]

People saying it’s her Rainbow but I think it’s more Memoirs

 

[funky]

I’ve only flicked through every song so far, but it’s already her best album.
