Lucky#17 Posted July 9, 2022 Posted July 9, 2022 BLACK GIRL MAGIC CRITIQUES Tkay Maidza — High Beams There’s a lot of interesting elements in the production, but I’m not sure if I “get” the song as a whole. I do prefer it to at least one other song here, for what that’s worth. Victoria Monét — F.U.C.K. It’s a very cute concept & the song’s a solid pick for bringing a “chill” layer to the Finale. That said, I do think you needed something stronger. Normani — Fair When I first saw this submitted I was lighting a couple of candles for you ‘cause I wasn’t sure how this would do. I love Mani & the song so you were getting help from me either way, but it is nice to see the people are commenting positively. & to my surprise, it does hold up. FLO — Immature Yup, this is what I was plotting to use for the Finale before I got elim’d. The way I was going to do so for WHATEVER theme it would be appropriate/eligible for.
Lucky#17 Posted July 9, 2022 Posted July 9, 2022 CROWNING SONG CRITIQUES Ethel Cain — Strangers Yeah… the climax of this is ballistic. Prime example of a song with a great buildup, climax & come-down. Definitely fitting for the category. Allie X — Girl of the Year Another case of where I can appreciate bringing something uptempo/dynamic to the playlist, but I’m not crazy on the song itself. Lily Allen — Chinese Would’ve liked something stronger but it’s very cute. Kacey Musgraves — Late to the Party Not the kind of music I’d listen to on my own but I can understand why it was submitted. She’s great at setting the scene, for sure (pun intended).
