ThatsTheTea Posted February 15 Posted February 15 Diet Pepsi is still the best but this is miles better than Aquamarine 1

Popular Post okgo Posted February 16 Author Popular Post Posted February 16 so there's this critically acclaimed artist Quote Addison Rae continues one of music's greatest rebrands with "High Fashion" As a song-and-video package deal, the star's new single is her best. I really should no longer be surprised when Addison Rae drops another banger but three immaculate singles deep into the rollout of her forthcoming debut album, due out sometime in 2025, it's still astonishing how genuinely high quality each release has been. The FADER ranked "Diet Pepsi" as our second best song of 2024, and "Aquamarine" (plus its Arca remix, "Arcamarine") was a quietly stylish vogue bop. Rae is now three for three with her latest, "High Fashion." One of Rae's style signatures has been her raw and airy vocals; she doesn't so much as sing on her songs as melodically exhale, whisper, or croon. This quality is all over her latest song, which takes a subtle atmospheric beat made by producers Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjard, the genius duo behind all of her new songs, and turns it into an impactful and sexy joint. I don't think since Britney we've gotten a pop girl that oozes this sort of midwestern quality in her pop-star identity, the idea of a normal girl that's been buffed up and glossed until shiny (coincidentally, like Britney, Rae also hails from Louisiana). For Rae, all this contributes to creating a striking, imperfect effortlessness to her music, something that deviates from the Britney comparison but only in the sense that Britney came up in an age of industry scrutinized pop creation; imperfection wouldn't have been allowed. Perhaps, however, if she debuted in 2025, her career might've looked something more like Rae's. It feels impossible that Rae's streak of excellence could keep continuing but by now, it seems she's won over most of the left-field pop community, and her momentum doesn't seem to be slowing. https://www.thefader.com/2025/02/14/watch-addison-rae-high-fashion-video-review Quote Song of the Week: Addison Rae - "High Fashion" With "High Fashion," Addison Rae goes three for three. Unlike "Diet Pepsi" and "Aquamarine," there is no immediately clear reference point for this track – to me, it sounds a little like Cold Spring Fault Less Youth era Mount Kimbie (those icy-but-warm synth glitches!) but there's so much more you could point to as well. The only important thing is that, at this point, Rae is 2025's most viable candidate for genuine pop breakout – "High Fashion" is hypnotic and euphoric and hugely weird, three things in short supply of late. https://www.papermag.com/sound-off-addison-rae Quote She's three for three with her latest singles. "High Fashion" is the latest addition to the pile — a Confessions of a Shopaholic-coded track that gets the same sultry treatment as the songs you'd hear on an FM radio pre-game mix in 2007. https://exclaim.ca/music/article/addison-rae-churns-out-another-high-fashion-banger Quote Addison Rae delivers another cheeky hit. Addison Rae is sticking with the luxuries she deserves — and saying no to bad love. On Friday, the pop star dropped her first single of 2025, "High Fashion," the newest release ahead of her debut album expected later this year. The new single continues the TikTok queen-turned-pop star's music takeover after gracing the cover of Rolling Stone last month. Rae told Rolling Stone that after she wrote the "High Fashion" chorus, "I don't need your drugs/I'd rather get high fashion," she made a collage "of shoes and glamorous things and Marilyn Monroe" to inspire her new era. "I want to be prim and poised," she said at the time. "Marilyn Monroe never said 'y'all.'" https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/drake-partynextdoor-sabrina-carpenter-addison-rae-songs-you-need-to-know-1235268398/ https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/addison-rae-high-fashion-video-1235266970/ Quote If 2024 marked the arrival of Addison Rae's pop career, 2025 will cement her status as a princess of the genre as she gears up to release her debut album. Her latest single arrives tomorrow in the form of 'High Fashion', a synth-heavy confection that will probably become the soundtrack for all of your debaucherous adventures in the months to come. Rae's doing God's work. https://instyleaustralia.com.au/culture/new-music-february-2025/ Quote Fans of Addison Rae's smoky delivery and sensual lyricism on last year's "Diet Pepsi" have received a worthy sequel with "High Fashion," as the former social media star and rising pop siren sounds increasingly confident while delivering lines like "I don't need your drugs / I'd rather get, rather get high fashion." https://www.billboard.com/music/pop/friday-music-guide-drake-partynextdoor-sabrina-carpenter-jisoo-1235902612/ Quote "I don't need your drugs / I'd rathеr get, rather get high fashion," Rae sings, cooing words that she actually wore on a T-shirt back in January. As the song begins, it sounds like an FKA Twigs track, as the synths stutter and Rae's falsetto creeps in, right before she dives into musings on how fashion can not only be addictive, it can also make the wearer feel more empowered, sexy, and seen. If there's anything we've learned over the past few months, it's that Rae is not to be underestimated, and her discography only gets more fascinating with each new single. "High Fashion" is just further proof of that. https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/art-books-music/a63797973/addison-rae-high-fashion-music-video/ Quote It's three from three for Addison Rae, who's on a generational run of pop singles before the release of her highly anticipated debut album, which is set for release later this year. 'High Fashion' is an electro-pop brooder, not as instantly catchy as 'Diet Pepsi' or 'Aquamarine' but one that builds with tension and eventually explodes into a frenzy of EDM and trap. https://notion.online/notion-now-232-addison-rae-sabrina-carpenter-lucy-dacus/ Quote Since she reinvented herself with a scream on the remix of Charli XCX's "Von Dutch" last year, Addison Rae has held my attention, maneuvering with such ease you forget she's maneuvering at all. There is canny joie de vivre in her campy paparazzi shots, which find her pumping gas in a Saints flat-brim and nip tape, and in her red carpet appearances doing gonzo interpretations of classic Madonna looks. And I still smile when "Diet Pepsi" comes on at the end of Pilates class, as it is so wont to do, with its breathy, effervescent early-Lana energy. In 2021, the TikTok star's Tonight Show debut teaching Jimmy Fallon those air traffic controller dances added to my mounting pile of evidence that the app was a weapon of social warfare designed to make America's children too dumb to fight in WWIII. Now her still-unannounced debut album is my most anticipated pop release of 2025. On first listen, "High Fashion," the third single from that album, feels a little uneventful—anti-climactic in comparison to the 15-second teaser, which promised "DRUGS" in hot pink letters, visuals like outtakes from Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring, and synth chords that could be samples from Ratatat's self-titled debut (though they are not). But on listen two, I kinda like it that way—the finger-snap percussion, the synth modulation halfway through the hook, the way it resists buoyancy and sinks slowly instead. As usual, you get the sense that Rae and a crack team of creative directors have tried hard to appear like they haven't tried at all. And once again, it has worked like a charm. https://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/addison-rae-high-fashion/ 15 3
HausOfPunk Posted February 16 Posted February 16 This song is amazing. It takes a few listens to get into it. The chord progression in the chorus is insane. The fact that her first three singles have each hit it out of the park while serving completely different vibes...wow. There is something very special about Addison Rae. 3 1
okgo Posted February 16 Author Posted February 16 apparently radio's playing a clean version with the lyrics "you know I'm not an easy touch, but when it comes to shoes, I'll give it up" if someone has it please share 1

I know everyone is perched for the queen but why are we jumping to conclusions yeah I didn't expect it would get so blown out of proportion. Maybe they're just random emojis she felt like typing in there for the lulz like we don't live inside her mind I do agree that I hope it isn't just 9 though... just noticed that and felt like mentioning I didn't mean to kickstart a whole ass album theory 2
