Y'all are never happy 

 

we might be getting 2 albums and you're finding a way to complain :rip:

 

Just enjoy it for what it is 

This. 
 

And the ppl saying “Problematique was a better album name and concept” were the same ones dragging it saying “why would she capitalize off working with an abuser” etc etc. 

 

I personally love an irreverent unapologetic pop star and think Kim embracing controversy follows in the footsteps of Madonna, Britney, etc. But you can’t ignore the underlying tones of it, her ties to Luke, her reputation online, it would be completely tone deaf to release to the public. I guess it’s a lose-lose situation as long as he produces for her but Republic prob didn’t want to launch her with that image right off the bat.

And I can actually see & respect the vision she's going for now. And some of the teased tracks sound incredible. But Kim/Republic refused to flesh it out. She should've spent at least a year creating FTB. Instead, it was put together in a couple of months, with random tracks thrown onto it (brr, Coconuts, HIFTB, Revelations, Sex Talk).

 

 

Don't get me wrong. I'm happy for anything at this point & I'll be streaming. But I feel like hitting my head against the wall when it comes to Kim & her team at times.

The original plan was to get her in the studio to record more songs for the original project bc Republic wasn’t happy with Problematique as it was. Aaron Joseph confirmed to fans that they didn’t “like the songs.” (We can assume that reaction was in response to FSN and Coconuts not taking off- not so much the songs themselves being bad)

 

Then when Problematique leaked, they clearly took that as a sign to go ahead and just start fresh and tack on a few Problem songs as opposed to tacking on a few new songs to the OG Problem tracklist, if that makes sense. This entire process has been stop and go and imo the label has been flying by the seat of their pants. Thank god for the success of Unholy bc that’s what really got the ball rolling for Kim.

So… the album is coming June 23rd? Or the first “official” single off the album? That’s what the caption insinuates.

 

Excited but also that pic is ugly af :giraffe:

any tea on the BANKS collab? :gaycat4:

She described it as ''Dungeon siren pop'' and recently shared two short snippets on her IG story before quickly deleting them, her update accounts have them posted.

I think the pic where she's all wet and has rocks (?) behind her is from FTB, not Problématique. I noticed Republic took down that picture, but the other ones were kept...

who cares if the visuals are not matching the sound she’s been putting out lol they’re still pretty cool 

what is cool about a douche holding a sword?

I'm going to a broken record, but Problematique had a way better title and visuals. If this isn't the album cover, I still hate the title, but maybe the cover will be better. 

they should've just dropped that record because i completely agree with you on this. much more interesting sonically and overall pleasing visuals

Don’t mind that person. They trash Kim on this forum regularly along with a few other clout-chasing “insiders” who think they look cool disparaging the most prominent trans artist in pop music we’ve ever seen. 
 

Losers with poor taste in music who post their ass pics on Twitter 

people are allowed to have different opinions. lets not pretend and act like kim has been killing it since she got signed. shes been inconsistent once she became a label artist and thats a facts. fans are allowed to voice concerns over the decline in quality. her being trans isnt enough to make her bulletproof of proper constructive criticism just because you want make the space for her to have a platform it comes with the territory

the truly funny thing is that they are actually pushing this as her debut album lmfao

which is so weird because her projects before are a solid body of work that truly represented her so whats the issue of referring to them as albums?

8 hours ago, Lady Claire said:

The story begins phrase kinda makes me anxious too… I hope it’s the album release already.

 

Or what if she’s releasing the album through EPs like X did with AGUILERA I would kms :rip:

not you triggering PTSD from mentioning AGUILERA i'm still mad that wasn't rolled out properly that ******* ***** xtina

working with one abuser or being associated with one for a brief period because you didn't know better is very different than collecting shitty people like pokemons and defending your association on twitter by going on mad rants when people question your motives. but anyways, this is not the time or place for this discussion. i hope it's a decent album for her sake and her fans get some bops out of it, we know it's gonna serve OUT-OUT on the charts and mid 60s on metacritic so i wish her the best. i truly wanted to root for her as she doesn't seem like an innately bad person and we love trans representation but... :cm:

The insider also said that the label is highly considering releasing Problématique shortly after this album because of the budget they spent on the visuals. It’s not in the form of which we know it as

 

I’m guessing Kim’s gonna tour both projects 

this would honestly be the best move and probably redeem her overall as an artist and with her fanbase

+1. 

 

I'd say take the best songs from Problematique and Feed the Beast and make it one album. 

nah keep the good album and music separate from ... whatever the other one is shaping up to be

7 hours ago, Alfred said:

Now this would be the real miracle 

 

I’m sure it wasn’t cheap to get Steven Klein to shoot the album art. That’s money down the drain if they don’t capitalize off that project at some point 

that'd make sense why they would and should still drop it. they need to recoup the money somehow. she hasnt toured in a minute. and everyone is happy. republic do this and also the sooner she can get out of this contract

- Coconuts and Brrr are IN
- IJWAR scrapped
- YTTC scrapped at last minute for Sex Talk
- they're heavily considering dropping Problematique this year because of the budget that was spent on visuals (💀)
- the Problematique tracklist we'll get won't be the same one that leaked
- she has her whole kitty out in the Problematique cover, it's an unseen set
- only 2 features (Nicki and BANKS)
- album cover is her best one yet, it's gorgeous and will gag everyone
- they were considering features with Normani and Ariana, but they never happened because of scheduling issues
- album cover and tracklist this week

 

This is everything the person who leaked the Problématique pics said. 

brrr and ijwar should've been scrapped. sex talk should never see the light of day

problematique NEEDS to come out. if you had people choose between FTB and it, people would choose the latter

she needs to work harder for ariana feature no offense

Don't get me wrong. It is not bad, I am even more excited for it than the FTB. They are clowns for completely scrapping the era, making Kim write another album, then scrapping it again before this. And now that everything leaked, they are scrambling to make profit from it. I'll happily stream and purchase the vinyl, but clowns clowns clowns.

if only charli and atlantic had this same energy for xcx world

Not Your Time to Cry (one of her best songs imo) being scrapped in favour of Sex Talk :deadbanana4: 

a nightmare, literally a nightmare

Hopefully it's because they're releasing it on Problematique if the insider tea is true

not a Normani feature nnnnnnnnnn :deadbanana4:

i would've been open to it so that way we actually get music from that heaux

That’ll be weird bc Coconuts, HIFTB, Revelations (& maybe Sex Talk) will then be on two albums.

 

Problematique should’ve just been released last Summer. 

honestly though the back and forth with that record made no sense only for it to leak and then everyone like and prefer that as oppose to what we were getting

6 hours ago, Boysdontcry said:

Was Coconuts a last minute addition then? Bc she didn’t announce it when she revealed the Problematique songs.

 

Technically Coconuts was never on the original Problematique tracklist anyway.

i'm just glad that it's gonna have a home. one of the few songs i liked that she's put out

6 hours ago, popularmoonlight said:

Actually excited for what’s happening now :duca: So happy that they’re letting her release these finally. Guess playing by the label rules really do helps you 

is it though? it's made her debut as a label artist come across and cause alot of divisiveness amongst her fanbase and critics and even kim herself lol let's wait and see what we get.

we can't. that's why we're not happy and complaining. quantity is not gonna matter if the quality doesn't match and she use to be the master of both

They should've released Problematique tracks last year after they leaked, like one song per week, then all of them as a mixtape (like Clarity).

that would've been a smart business move

So what was the point in shelving her? If they knew her fanbase, they'd know that her fans would've loved the album. There was no point in delaying it for 2 years.

I’m starting to get the vibe that labels are using delays to build more anticipation these days. Of course, flopping gets you delayed, but maybe they truly are trying to use that for their own profit. 

 

Fans have been expecting this album for years and now Petras has the opportunity to release a whole new body of work and on top of that, capitalize on also releasing something the album original fans were actually waiting for. Do you see what i’m saying? I’ve observed this with a few artists lol 

that's definitely not the vibe. labels don't delay to build anticipation lol in this day and age it's counterproductive lol kim has been delayed time and time again due to underperforming according to their standards now they're just trying to recoup and strike while the iron is hot post unholy

Everyone hated it when it first came out too :rip:

 

There is this tendency to hate whatever she puts out first then going back to it as a masterpiece whenever she releases something new

Y’all were calling Problematisue dated, boring, her worst work yet before it got scrapped 

Posted

She's so sick for scrapping Your Time To Cry from FTB. Hopefully we'll get Problématique with YTTC on it

Posted

Sex Talk is fun, ear candy, Era 1 type of music and it's perfect for those TikTok character edits. Some of y'all clearly have no taste :WAP:

Posted

I wonder if Problematiqué will simply just be shortened to not include tracks making FTB or there will be other tracks replacing their original slots as well. Also not everyone discussing about Problematiqué more than FTB already :toofunny2:
