All he knows how to do is noisy synthpop so idk what y'all are expecting in terms of genre Even if you aren't aware of his vast body of work with other artists (NFR, Daddy's Home, Gaslighter, Sling, quite a bit of his own Bleachers work, etc) I still don't know how you came to this conclusion bc Tay/Jack have lots of non-“noisy" synthpop songs Gold Rush? My Tears Ricochet? This Is Me Trying? Illicit Affairs? The Lakes? Mirrorball? August? Timeless? I Can See You? Castles Crumbling? Lover? Paper Rings? False God? + the rest of his productions on the Fearless and Red vaults that I'm too lazy to name because I think I've made my point The people still suffering from Midnights Derangement Syndrome are committed to sucking all the fun out of this album cycle, huh? 8 2
KOMH Posted March 18 Posted March 18 The last time she dropped a pre release single before abandoning them altogether? Loser. That monstrosity of an album is always at the scene of the crime. One day she will atone for her sins. 2 9
Post Malone Posted March 18 Posted March 18 I kinda hope the all caps title is a mistake and will change back, it makes no sense with the soft satin imagery and the muted colors etc, highkey all lowercase would fit best in my opinion 1 1 1

You're in for a huge shock if you think people won't eat this up even more than Midnights if it's not quite as ‘pop'. If anything, it having more real instruments and being alt-inspired would make it smash harder. im conservative when it comes to predictions and i dont wanna set my sis up even though every time she proves me wrong that being said longevity wise it definitely wont be as good as midnights
KatyPrismSpirit Posted March 18 Posted March 18 What if this is THE R&B version of Red mixed with some Reputation and a dash of folklore? Fifth AOTY confirmed huny

Fama Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Did she ever explain why reputation, folklore and evermore are all lowercase? It might explain why this one is all caps. 1
Kern Posted March 18 Posted March 18 As I said already… usually the names of departments are in all caps - for example on stamps or on the doors so it makes total sense aesthetically 2

Arrows Posted March 18 Posted March 18 My theory is that this was her real intended shot at a 4th AOTY, which is why she announced it at the Grammys, reminding the voters to check it out All of her first 3 AOTY's debuted a new genre of Taylor to the world (country, pop, alternative, r̶o̶c̶k̶). All of them had 2 albums in between (SN/Red, rep/Lover, evermore/M̶i̶d̶n̶i̶g̶h̶t̶s̶). I really don't believe she expected to win for Midnights. As usual, she's her own worst competition these days 2 3

I always assumed folklore and evermore are because they're fictional albums (and there songs titles are all lowercase too) and reputation is because “There will be no further explanation / There will just be reputation.” and she felt like it didn't need to be because of her reputation at the time. 1

Lille Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Btw, I'm truly in love with the aesthetics this era. The gold bookmarks, the novel-like cover framing, the typeset, the achromatic color scheme...this is a DREAM to me. 5

The potential is there

YellowRibbon Posted March 18 Posted March 18 The more I look into the cover, the more I get synth pop mixed with jazz and r&b vibes from the record. It doesn't scream soft rock in the slightest, at least to me

every1blinks Posted March 18 Posted March 18 What all needs to be done for the affected parties to heal from the Midnights photoshoot? How can we support you to health? 3
Magickarp Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Any pic u can find of an all caps DEPARTMENT, i can find u the opposite. 1
mael Posted March 18 Posted March 18 (edited) Are the Bey stans complaining about the all caps title in their thread or is it just a mental illness thing exclusive to this base.......? Edited March 18 by mael 6
Holiest Dreams Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Tbh I was melting down at the thought of it being stylized in all caps but I kinda like how it looks. It's very eye-catching. Not saying I prefer it over normal capitalization, but I don't hate it like I was fearing.
