Communion Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Surfaced online. Recorded April 20th, 2017. Based on the title, there's speculation this was submitted to 2 Chainz for his Pretty Girls Like Trap Music album that Pharrell was working on at the time, especially since the song has an open verse for another artist.

Sweetner is trash without them and I do NOT understand anyone who says its her best lmfao. It would be if you took the rest of the absolute **** off it. I CANNOT. The fact she did tun (her magnum opus) so quick after and Pharrell was nowhere to be found speaks VOLUMES. Tommy & Max = the dreamteam.

Communion Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 (edited) Not the Max Martin fans already starting their slandering of Sweetener when Sweetener is a cute girl and gave Ariana her artistic moment acclaimed by the GP. Pharrell gave her the ARTS and Tommy would go on to give her the CHARTS. Edited May 30, 2023 by Communion 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pharrell gave her the ARTS and Tommy gave her the CHARTS. There's a reason Max Is not on her projects anymore. Her "artistic" moment? LMFAO, that would literally be her most personal album to date - thank u, next. Max has been off ONE project. ONE. Positions. And that was half loved and half panned. Half of Positions is literal unfinished trash just like Sweetner. WHAT are you smoking hun? Pharrell gave her unfinished pots and pans. Like... theres a reason DW & tun are her best albums - POLISHED top to bottom. RICH production. FINISHED songs with pop perfect arrangements, background vocals, bridges etc. Everything with Pharrell lacked ALL of those things lmao. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you telling me you expect to see more Max Martin collaborations on upcoming Ariana albums? I love their songs together too, but hating anything Max didn't do is this weird contrarianism on ATRL. The majority of Arian's most successful songs are now produced by Tommy Brown. Let alone Max's team had very little to do with thank u, next. Pop Wansel is the album's next biggest contributor after Tommy and BUWYG only ended up on the album cause Ariana got cold feet over putting out Remember - a song produced by Wansel & Scott Storch. Making up claims like positions being an album of "scraps" shows someone who can't accept where Ariana is headed to musically. Not liking an album =/= getting to claim that album was some rushed project when we know it wasn't and have the countless demos that 1) show the sonic change that occurred and 2) what scraps actually are. It's inherently contradicting to write Sweetener off as "scraps" because Pharrell offered Ariana ideas he was already working on while then applying the same label to positions, which ends up being the project she was the most involved in from beginning to end.

I don't know, but... she should. She definitely should, or at least Ilya. I dont hate anything Max didn't do, Tommy SLAYS, so does Pop Wansel. As do pretty much EVERY producer and collaborator she has worked with APART from one - Pharrell. Hes the only one that gave her literal trash. The only one. I know who is on the tun liner notes, I know. Stuck With U even, Pop Wansel did that and that also SHITS on Pharrell's weak ass trash. Its not claims... its literally not claims, MULTIPLE publications, fans and threads on this very forum (and I'm sure others) have discussed how half the songs on positions are literally unfinished. Those deluxe tracks? GURL. Half of positions is an absolute MASTERPIECE. The other half? Meh, weak. Shes done better and she CAN do better. Adore & Quit are perfect examples of this. She can REALLY serve. And I'm literally a STAN. I know what shes capable of. I've been to every one of her tours, I've got all her demo/leaks/features etc. I KNOW what she can do. And positions was weak... weak. She is capable of something a lot more polished. She is. She herself shits on every project once shes onto the next one lmao. Shes known to hate half the **** she does on the last album pretty much every album cycle. Like... Either way, Pharrell is the ONLY **** collaborator she has EVER had. Period. This isnt even about stanning Max Martin. Its about the fact someone of her calibre was given TRASH by someone who is considered a legendary producer lmfao. That aint it. That aint right. At ALL. Like, The Neptunes... and served THAT? Nahhhhh. Christmas & Chill ALONE shits on the Pharrell tracks. And that was a rushed EP turned into a masterpiece she did with Tommy in FAR less time than the tracks she did on Sweetner lmao. Adore & Quit with Cashmere Cat also **** on the Pharrell tracks.

VerdantHue Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Some of you are taking it too personal haha. At the end of the day making music is fun and it's not always going to a Billboard hit. The song was not released for a reason. Just appreciate the process. Everyone has different taste. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magdalene Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 okay I feel like if bey had this, tweaked the production a little bit, and added her runs there’s a vision for an interlude there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
