BlackoutZone Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 1 minute ago, ahauntingnearu said: Devotion is definitely acclaimed, but how repetitive all the songs' lyrics are + how monotonous the instrumentals are is pretty tiring to me... apart from a few incredible standouts on the album. TL has bop after bop, so though there's not much substance going on it's probably my second favorite of the first four albums. GH is boring as a whole - but yes it has its moments, like I said. It's really just a few tedious tracks that make me forget how good a few of the others are (plus a good half of 'fine but don't need to listen to' tracks). Interesting, I find the production on Devotion to be excellent and progressive, still fresh as well. Definitely finding myself engaged start to end. Like even if you just enjoy the highlights alone - Running is absolutely one of the best songs ever, Imagine It Was Us called Jessie for a chat before she begun WYP era.

Oh we're totally aligned on Running, Imagine and a few others being amazing; it's just a boring full listen for me. The production sounds nice but you don't need to listen past the first chorus of every other song to know exactly all there is to know about the song I digress, though - I still like it ofc Edited February 7, 2023 by ahauntingnearu Underrated(?) take: I think Strangest Feeling also falls into the amazing group.
despy Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 glasshouse is good and she doesn't have a single bad album. end of discussion.
K$Ellie Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 sounds like it could be a Lizzo song yet again
AnonnonA Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 (edited) WYP? > Tough Love > Devotion > Glasshouse That said, Jessie doesn’t have a single bad album and I think TFG will continue this streak OT: still haven’t listened to the Pearls snippet but seems like the reviews are mostly positive so far Edited February 7, 2023 by AnonnonA

ThehushSound Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 I can't stop playing the snippet, it sounds so luxurious and camp. Mother really is coming.
Ice Cream Skies Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 I like all her albums, but she's definitely been in her bag with these current albums.
TrueBlood Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 The 1 minute snippet sounds IMMACULATE, serving pure Donna Summer with a little touch of Janet too. I fear this song is gonna lowkey shift who I am as a person and change my whole life.
SinnerCity Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Pearls sounds absolutely fantastic!!!!!!!!!

Lizzo's recent effort is rehashed mainstream copy cat disco. Jessie is doing tasteful new modern disco flair, elegance and sex appeal. plz dont sis.
Enzo Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 THE PRE CHORUS HER VOICE THE PRODUCTION UGH it's just not in hers to do a bad song

They're all very safe, cookie-cutter, and fine-to-good... but nothing special relative to where she went afterwards. The reason I love parts of GH, though, is that I think you can see traces of WYP? in it. You can tell from the last few sessions for GH she was already headed in WYP?'s direction. The released songs with Danny Parker and Shung - as well as a few 2017 outtakes - you can hear the beginnings of the direction WYP? would take. So just another way that GH was important in leading to WYP?
kyliefever2002 Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 idk if the release time was said already but anyways, she announced it on twitter:
