oshyms Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 educated-guessing this is gonna be her worst album. i know there’ll be great songs but wbk it’s gonna be a bad project comparing to her other bodies of work it’s unfortunate that hit it from the back and revelations leaked as part of problematique cause her core fans will associate it with that project, diluting this album coconuts is my leasts favourite song of hers, surely streams can’t be that good to really want it included here? it also belongs in the problematique universe nonetheless i’m excited for the bops and hope it skyrockets her
Lady Claire Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 I don't think the album will be bad, just not cohesive. From what i noticed, Kim wanted to do a more personal album and include some references from Germany, techno and europop music, as well experiment with other genres with a darker mood. We'll get this on some songs but with others not as much, bc of Republic's influence. All of her projects were pretty cohesive, even Problématique sounded a whole world on its own, but FTB is more messy bc it has to do some numbers on the charts. I wish we could had the album she probably had in mind but anyways. Since she already said she's doing what the label wants, i won't be surprised if she ends up dragging FTB on her next album cycle and claim that it actually wasn't what she wanted. 1
Carlitos Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 (edited) 4 hours ago, Alfred said: The contradiction I think what's cohesive is that all the songs will BOP, regardless of their tone/genre/etc. Part of me feels that she still hasn't fully recovered from that dark place. Not to be a downer... but atp i think she just does what's asked of her by the label. Her energy onstage (at the Miami show) lately has been super low. They only gave her 4 dancers for that set. I wonder if she still feels bitter about Problematique being scrapped and/or Alone not smashing and is just over it. I do believe the whole album being scrapped really discouraged her, I secretly feel like she regrets signing to a major label because everything now has to be approved by them. I’m sure she just wants this album to drop so she can begin on her next project. Edited June 8, 2023 by Carlitos 2
Saint James Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 i actually think this will be her best album in terms of tracks we go back to, the replay value.
#Beautiful Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 who cares anymore what its gonna be like at this point. we know half the songs and they slap. the album will do what it supposed to do. shes not going for ray of light's wig, we're here for the fun. lowkey cant wait to get this rollout over with. its been awful

Whis Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 Uh Oh, Claws, Castle In The Sky, King Of Hearts, Bait, Hit It From The Back, Revelations… Smash after smash. Album of the year is coming.
#Beautiful Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 when you touch my body i hear the angels sing when you touch my body i see eternity
Twilish Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 Dirty dances lead to second chances In the dark baby there’s a silver living Cause it brought you right into me in my arms is where you could be I better see a deluxe coming with this smash on it Ms Petras
Supervillain Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 We needed the album to be full of Castle in the Sky'd bangers
OmegaRidley Posted June 8, 2023 Posted June 8, 2023 THERE'S A CASTLE IN SKYYY And we're getting closer
Lady Claire Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 She should've dropped Uhoh this week... she'll be performing at Governors Ball tomorrow and Germany's Next Top Model next week, so it would be nice to have something new out right before the album. But anyways
Saint James Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 are we expecting this to chart in germany? do they use her music?

I'm not sure but I think she is way more known in the US. Kim was in a lot of TV Shows here around the late 00s, early 10s but she is pretty much forgotten, I guess. I feel like she's not even very known in the gay community here in germany.
Lady Claire Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 Yeah she made a mistake by not capitalizing her brand in Germany. She could've been on a similar position to Zara Larsson and Anitta, that may flop everywhere but at least their home countries are loyal to their releases. I guess Republic thought about that since she recorded German versions for Jesus, Thousand Pieces and probably other songs too but they weren't released yet for some reason. In fact i don't think many people even know that she's German
OmegaRidley Posted June 9, 2023 Posted June 9, 2023 The way this is going to do abysmal numbers… the album is in 2 weeks and there’s no hype whatsoever

Germany is (as usual) three thousand years behind and still loves trap-pop. I think a german version of A Thousand Pieces could work really well Here.
