playboi Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) After listening to Olivia’s album I can’t help but feel disappointed by the very immature/naïve lyrics, songs like "pretty isn’t pretty" and "Get him back" sound like they were written for a Disney show and bring pretty much nothing new to the table. Upon comparison to her Gen Z peers, I feel like only Pinkpantheress can actually write about the anxiousness, expectations and disappointments of early adulthood. She reminds me a LOT of Lily Allen. And before you call me old, I am myself Gen Z and fall into both girls’ age bracket. What do you think?

GraceRandolph Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Couldn't get no sleep last night (not at all) Throwing up like I'm dizzy from a flight (I'm sick as ****) Mom bugging for nothing, she so uptight She said, "It gotta go if you staying here for the night" (What?) "It's important, abort it," that's what they all said Rubbing my stomach to feel it Don't wanna kill it, that's dead Will I still go to heaven? Will I still get my blessings? When I leave the doctor's office, would I feel like a felon? I'm kinda aggy Shame I got a ****** up baby daddy Would have been a good mother To love her 'til I'm wrinkled and saggy Like a test, I'm stressed and hella naggy 'Cause this **** cut deep, like it stab me The nurse under my skirt looking for the body parts This vacuum hurt, I just hope it don't leave scars In the mirror, I'm staring, I'm so embarrassed Feel like my soul selling quicker than clothes up on the ******* clearance At 11 who you telling everything was hand me downs Jumped and stomped by 20 people while others stand around Nobody helped, everyday I felt invisible School so grimy the principal don't even got principles Once I turned 12 it was all hell Roaming the streets looking for D when I couldn't even spell Fighting demons with a poker face like everything swell Let's fast forward let me show you how my life has failed Remember them nights with no lights or gas? Washing up at the sink tryna clean my ass with cold water My entire body was freezing best believe it Jesus put me here for a reason 15, ******* on a man that's 35 good in the beginning Then ate my soul alive fooled myself thinking its love The way he layed with me But all we ever did was **** and went to KFC It's sad, I degraded myself hated myself All this because I wasn't raised with a belt I know mama I hurt you staying out pass curfew You deserve to sit back but I overworked you Remember when my music got 11 plays? Mama we here now these the better days So I'll be damned if I let a ***** take it away They body dropping in a instant like they break & escape Never going back to them old days of seeing them low plays So I entertain these niggas like I'm giving them roleplay I'm frisky, I might give that dick a hickey If sucking dick was a drug I'm overdosing like Whitney Drop it in my kitty let me feel it in my kidney Your pants full of dick so we calling 'em Dickies I **** niggas and get ****** without a ring ***** taste like pork chops and sour cream Place you in a dream once I give you this sample Then I model your sperm just call me Naomi Campbell Cupcakke is Gen Z (1997 birth) and wrote this all solo, so I’d say it’s her.

Regardless of her lyrical content in portions of her discography she can change up flows better than most rappers. Listen to her run from 0:30 to 1:18 and tell me her flow isn’t BODYING most rappers: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4Walls Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I mean the lyrics for Take Me Home are soooooooo poetic and relatable. "I'm making the most of my life 'Til the day that I hit 25 I know that they'll make an adult of me I know that I'm not quite ready to be And I know l've got some growing, I realized the other day When I said some things that I knew that I shouldn't say I opened up a letter of bills that I didn't pay They were due in April, but now it's the end of May" like I really do feel like nobody else can write lyrics so relatable yet so melancholic and honest.
