Gladiator Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 So jarring seeing people not ask "and why do we care about this person's opinion?" like they do when he rates an album from their fav's less than favorably. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greento Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 As a Charli stan (she's my 2nd fav of all time) I don't get the hype for this album and her other hyperpop albums are my fav from her. I'm just confused why this one's getting the most acclaim. Pop 2, N1A, hifn and True Romance are all way better to me. I'd maybe even put Charli and Crash above brat im happy for her tho as it's still a good album 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squall Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 The Charli XCX stan gave it a 10? Shocking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough, people were calling him a hater when he dragged Crash (and misogynistic of course because DUH). Now he's suddenly a stan. Y'all can't even keep a clear narrative when it comes to this man. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The innovation was there with N1A/P2. The rawness and spontaneity was there with HIFN. It feels like a bandwagon. Ultimately, brat will probably fall somewhere in the middle of her discography for me. Better than Crash, Charli and Sucker. Around the same as True Romance. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kh-Loud Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) The craziest thing is that this album is one mega GROWER. I would had given it a 6/10, and it would had been less if it wasn't for the pre released singles, but it's a solid 9/10 for me now... It's the most well executed concept album of the year, MAYBE...YOU just press PLAY and JAMMM Edited June 11 by Kh-Loud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd maybe even put Charli and Crash above brat im happy for her tho as it's still a good album I think it's because this time the hyperpop was combined with more vulnerable/real lyricism. From some of the 5/5 reviews: A courageous, candid reflection on how dreadful it can feel to constantly be the "cool girl", the one who laughs off failure, or pretends not to care what the critics think. - The Telegraph Whatever the stats and her self-esteem might say, it's hard to think of another pop star whose vision is so expansive and generous, not least in her willingness to risk being seen as mean in order to say something true. Most of her superstar peers are busy making unrelatable music about how hard it is to be famous. Yet Charli has never lost sight of how hard it is to be human - The Guardian It's the most raw and honest version of Charli she's shown us in a while, a complicated pop figure who's more than just a party girl. - Dork Magazine 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critically, HIFN was basically paid dust despite achieving everything brat did and more. I don't think there was another album that managed to capture the anxiety, self-reflection and boredom that the pandemic inflicted upon us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there was another album that managed to capture the anxiety, self-reflection and boredom that the pandemic inflicted upon us. well HIFN is not as realised as brat and that's it really. sonically it's rushed and messy, i'll give it credit lyrically she was being more vulnerable and open but brat just does that even more boldly and covers a lot more interesting topics. on HIFN you have to dig a bit to find the core of the song buried under the abrasive production whereas on brat the production is serving the lyrics and sentiment while still being perfectly executed. HIFN was also critically acclaimed and listed for a mercury prize, loved by fans, but it was a quick quarantine mixtape moment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
