album Rina Sawayama - 'Hold the Girl'

[Supervillain]

Not feeling FOTM that much, you can tell why it’s a bonus track

[ahauntingnearu]

FOTM ugly no matter how many times I've listened. 

 

Also she's being so annoying on Twitter with "slay" and esp the mother ****. I lost several brain cells just trying to read backgrounds of each song  drop this act asap Rina girl 

[Angels]

She set the bar sooo high with her debut that this was a lil disappointing. Imagining was my fave track

Still great in comparison to what else has been released this year though

This, she got yassified a bit too much

The intro of Your Age made me think which new BLACKPINK song was I listening to  

i thought i was the only one i was half expecting the Pink Venom vocals to come in after

Agreed, she’s way too smart for this ****

[Polgg48]

FOTM is the direction i wished she should have taken but poor execution and sound so basic.

 

now i understand...

[arceus]

Ive been listening to this album non stop and none of the songs stuck in my head

same, i got over it so quickly

[ahauntingnearu]

Missing Summers could have been a cute bonus track or something ... maybe even close to CMITA somewhere in the tracklist. Not a huge loss tho ... and maybe she'll drop another disappointing Deluxe later lol

[dreamofyou]

after a few listens, this is so good, i don't think it tops SAWAYAMA (or RINA) yet, but the dramatics for this were so wild

 

Holy, Your Age, Frankenstein & Imagining are some of my faves from the new tracks

[Kendi]

i don't usually see the Gaga comparisons, however Flavor of the Month is very The Fame.

[halcyonday]

was Imagining recorded for a different album? it doesn't fit the disney & vanilla of the rest of the album and she actually sings with a personality 

[WildAmerican]

I'm imagining
So tell me, what the **** is up? What's happening?
Right now, my sanity is gone, it's vanishing
I know I do this to myself, it's damaging
I-I-I-I-I, I'm imagining

To Be Alive kinda feels like her Animal (title track) moment 

Animal SWEETIE

[CosTaSsSs]

Some tracks are ok but her debut is superior. 

[Harrier]

I think that you have to be a fan of 00s pop music to truly enjoy this album. If you didn't move for Kelly Clarkson's Breakaway in 2003, you aren't going to move for this either So I do get why some of the girls don't like it.

[Theshigo Washidu]

The album is cute, but it also sounds kinda dated? 2011-2013 teas.

Her debut seemed a bit more sonically interesting.

[LaMaterialista]

Loved the album so much, but I guess I'm not the best person to say so because I love her deeply and I even like LUCID non ironically. You can see that she is always super genuine about what she wants to write and her inspirations and that always translate into sincere records, production and lyrics wise. My favs now are CMITA and SMLTJ (because of songwriting), and Hurricane, Phantom and Frankesntein as a whole.

no you’re right, after sleeping on it that’s was a bold and inaccurate comparison. my apologies 

[dooart]

i loved loved loved the album 

[ryoncé]

omg flavor of the month is so good 

 

its literally like everything RINA exudes style wise and personality wise wrapped up in one massive bop
