Chemist Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Quote The British superstar has said her new album is influenced by Britpop, rave culture and Primal Scream, but you could go mad trying to find the evidence. This part of The Guardian's review is hilarious because it's true. She is taking herself too seriously for what she's delivering. It reminds me of Gaga circa Born This Way 6 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't totally different tho It's still about acclaim. With a fact that both have changed for the positive when it comes to pop releases.

Jude Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) 2 hours ago, Redstreak said: So was ES and how is that holding up with the public only a month and a half later? Holding incredibly well despite only having 2 singles (one solid hit). OT: The album is at least an 8, at most 9. Edited May 3 by Jude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folks, this is celebrity worshipping aka Mental Illness, but without the self awareness. Girl, hush. I don't "worship" any celebrity and certainly not Dua, which is evident in everything I post on this website. Praying on a stranger's downfall isn't normal whatsoever and is a sign that you're not happy with yourself or your own accomplishments. Me pointing this objective fact isn't mental illness, it's me calling it what it is and you getting triggered because it's true. Hope this helps! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply pointing out and stating facts isn't the same as praying on a stranger's downfall, which would presume that it hasn't happened yet- are you lacking basic comprehension because you sound very slow right now? Also, the gas lighting and continuous personal attack seems like a self projection at this point - hope everything is okay at home!

LadyDiana Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Ya'll overreacting as usual. TTPD is no way some masterpiece some of you make it out to be and RO is a cute dance record. I enjoy it, don't give a damn about some silly numbers and all of you who like it just enjoy it. This board faked to stan Adele just cuz she was selling good but jumped ship the second demand faltered. So yeah, enjoy the music, atrl stay toxic 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It reminds me of Gaga circa Born This Way It really annoys me that reviewers are taking what she's said in other interviews and using it against her because it didn't meet their expectations based on what she said.. Or even having an expectation based on the people she's working with like Kevin Parker, expecting a more psychedelic record… I agree she should've have said these things or made these comparisons but a reviewer should just review the music for what it is and not be influenced by all of these other factors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if an album sets out to do something and fails at it, then that’s a reasonable criteria by which to analyze it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
