Souvenir Posted February 26 Posted February 26 if u think about it she did not release a good single since the decade started (only calm down and it smashed) i think she and her team dont know how to pick a good single + her voice has changed a lot. I found her voice weird in her latest releases (LSG, LO, MM&M, 999…) 2

I found her voice weird in her latest releases (LSG, LO, MM&M, 999…) which is funny because Selena had one of the best single runs until Rare. i agree with what you or someone else said that they don’t know how to navigate her health in relation to music career. her voice is most likely gone due to lupus and won’t come back. and music has become her least prioritised over acting and business ventures so… it is what it is.
lauren198 Posted February 26 Posted February 26 (edited) I don't think it has nothing to do with Gracie, stop blaming the child. If Selena ask her if she likes a song, ofc she will to say she does. Selena is childish herself and she supposedly has a team. Besides Love On lyrics is not even kid friendly. I don't think this is a bad song at all, but I agree that she didn't connect with the lyrics, you can say when she does connect with lyrics even if they're not personal, like Bad Liar And Calm Down doesn't count. Y'all forget that it's just a remix and that Selena didn't participate in the creation of the song Edited February 26 by lauren198 2

Gracie is a 10 yrs old kid not a big recording label that owns people who (most likely) studies every single release and its strategy to launch. Interscope wants this and so they let her release. Just they released Single Soon, a 2017 song, with a full Friday release, a TTH top position and a radio deal unlike Selena's previous songs. I know is not Gracie fault. Like, there's no way she's asking for SS type of songs lol I'm blaming Selena for mixing her personal and professional life. it's unacceptable how she gives her friends the power to mess her music career. From the album cover, running her social media, tracks and to singles choice. She needs to do better. No even C-lists do that. Her music audience is not only her friends. About interscope... Hmm, imo they always let her do whatever she wants. Specially the lack of promo. This is why she will never leave the label. Also, now that Olivia is here, she's no the main focus anymore ( they sharing the same team just make it more obvious). Plus, everybody knows music is just a hobby for Selena. SS sounded dated since day 1. The label letting Selena release that song just shows how much they like her, because no other label would allow that. It was clearly a waste of money on radio and playlists. Btw never forget that interscope wanted her to choose Same old Love over GFY as lead. There's the mid week releases too. LYTLM almost lost the #1 because of that silly decision. So yeah, the label/team is no THAT smart lol Edited February 26 by La Luna
La Luna Posted February 26 Posted February 26 (edited) I don't trust Interscope, sorry So lame. Always fumbling the bag. Also, they give too much freedom to Selena. Sometimes a label needs to step up a bit and get the job done. Like, how the album is still not ready ? She been talking about sg3 since 2021. She's a very unserious woman Edited February 26 by La Luna

It doesn't fit with Rare sound or the droplets era, for sure. It would done great only in 2014 when she was single for the first time (after her first long relationship) before The Heart and while leaving HR. 1
Cleanromantic Posted February 26 Posted February 26 I really like this. It's like Accelerate but done right. Single Soon is also a bop, I don't get the hate 2 1

lauren198 Posted February 26 Posted February 26 I think the change on her voice is more due to the smoking than lupus. For that I blame Spring Breakers env that made the silly girl think smoking was what be an adult meant

Hitchhiker Posted February 26 Posted February 26 I like this a lot more than Single Soon and everyone writing it off too early got a feeling it’ll become a cute TikTok hit maybe in 3 months or so maybe a top 20 on H100 eventually
qwerty123123 Posted February 26 Posted February 26 Still loving this but can it recover? I do wonder what her next move will be. She could give up completely, try another song or push this. I just hope she still puts out the album.
Selegend Posted February 26 Posted February 26 (edited) why is her 'this is selena gomez' playlist not updated with this song i don't think it's hurting (even more) the song cuz it's pinned on her profile but it hurts in the long run. Edited February 26 by Selegend

She needs to use the sped up version herself
La Luna Posted February 26 Posted February 26 (edited) No words Why she's out there releasing/recording old demo songs. Why? What's the reason? Her mindset is the reason she looks lost about her music career. Chile, Sg3 is doomed I'm feeling very hopeless rn about the album Edited February 26 by La Luna

La Luna Posted February 26 Posted February 26 (edited) If this is real then yeah... here's coming a meltdown No because It's feels like all the songs she didn't manage to put on Rare are getting shoved down our throats now. She needs to free us from these old demos. No wonder the songs sounds so dated, that shi*t seems like was made years ago. If that demo is real, then Interscope really need to step in. It's about time. The lack of sense is too much. Love my girl but she needs to stop playing. Ughh great, now I can't stand Love On anymore. If she's really releasing old reworked songs, then why she didn't release Stained when it was a possibility? Edited February 26 by La Luna
