[HEAVYONIT]

Glad it's received some initial positive reviews to start off 

[KatyPrismSpirit]

Oh wow

[Prodigal Self]

Can't wait for the deserved 5.2 p4k score

[KatyPrismSpirit]

Since Pitchfork is under Condé Nast (Vogue), I believe they will give her a 7.0+ They always give people who do a Vogue shoot during their album cycle a positive rate

[beyonceparkwood]

Just a heads up that neither Even Standard nor Riff counts for the MC score.

[Sidney Prescott]

She’s coming for 90+ score 

[nasa]

Prediction: 35 (Universal BOMB)

POW

[ImpressMeMuch]

I expect a pretty heavy range of scores with the number of tracks and different sounds

[KatyPrismSpirit]

I hope this ends at 79+

[Diet Pepsi]

Quote

But without the novelty of being the only major female talent in town, she seems to be struggling to redefine herself: her recent collaborations with younger artists like Ice Spice and Sexyy Red can feel more like clout-chasing than genuine mentorship from one generation to the next.

the independent came through with some morning tea 

[HEAVYONIT]

 

 

[HEAVYONIT]

I just deleted this because I realized it was those dumb fucks at POEBASE. I saw it fast and didn't even realize.
