Billie: " Happier Than Ever is a fart album" / is pretentious


IBeMe

Recommended Posts

Billie and her brother Finneas discussed her previous work. They say that WWAFAWDWG? was made from genuine fear whereas Happier Than Ever is a "fart" album and was made from a place of pretention. They say that they made that record after having been complimented way too much by the industry. 

 

Starts at around the 8 minute mark:

that's what I always got from the album cover tbh, almost mocking, clearly a joke, but still served quality.

why she says her first album was created from genuine fear?

I revisited it the other day and while I'm glad she did not have a sophomore slump, it is my least favorite of her efforts including DSAM. There's very high highs like the title track but I didn't like the songs that felt tacked on. It feels there's only a good chunk in the middle of the album that feels like an actual album

I don't remember this. I remember people saying it was her good girl gone bad era

I hate when artists promote their new era by shitting on their last album

She didn't drag WWAFAWDWG thankfully :sistrens: She did get a bit too cocky with HTE imo tho

It's a good album? There's some bloat but there's no need to trash your prior work. Title track kind of revived interest in her career after the hate train she had going on.

Happier Than Ever is better than HMHAS so this is upsetting to hear!

Finneas talks too much :rip:

 

With that said, he kinda made points about the production being undercooked at times. I really adore HTE but mostly for its vocals, songwriting, and sonic direction, not necessarily its production quality.

Well :deadbanana2:

 

My view is that of course artists are allowed to dislike their previous work, tastes change and all that, but don't ******* say that in public maybe unless you were forced by the label into making it :gaycat7:

It's a bit like the whole "my fans are miserable human beings!" fad that was a thing last year

I mean it's kind of bloated but it has some of her highest highs. Pretentious is a stretch (although the way Finneas talks is :rip:)

 

She just hates the era sadly.
