THAT TOO!!

Scorcese Baby Daddy is such a cool song. I agree that the reverb is a lot but I like this direction for her. I see the vision 

[jubilee123]

Also in the set of LANA cover arts she posted last year, she had a 15 jersey on in them. We got 15 new songs. 
 

in the peeing teaser w Kitchen playing, she had a 5 jersey on. (Open arms, psa, take you down, Joni, Nightbird are a total of 5 songs) 

[JoeAg]

Love Me 4 Me has these beautiful synths/chord shapes that remind me sooooo much of Electric Lady-era Janelle Monáe 

[ariesgroove]

last night, you called on accident

heard you f*cking on the other end

 

[FlyPirate]

not loving it.

 

first of all, the mixing is horrible period. this is not fans complaining for nothing or tryna bring her down, it is what it is. it's not intentional either. reverb'd vocals might be a style choice but it's not that, it's the mix of all the components that is clearly off which is funny cause she delayed the release to finish the mixing.

 

that said, the album doesn't have clear standouts on first listen. it's cute, it has its moments but that's about it. I get the 'deluxe' labelling but girl it's 15 TRACKS now c'mon now…

 

anyway i think the one i liked the most is Scorsese Baby Daddy, production is interesting and the pre-chorus melody is lovely, nice vocals. too bad it's all so muffled. 

[fallen alien]

so beautiful!!! only a few growers imo

[Soda Pop Queen]

BMF needs to be a single, like YESTERDAY. So breezy and bouncy. 

[FlyPirate]

oh and the interlude is like the second best thing in here. i hate her fr  we want the full song

[itshyolee]

BMF is that SONG

[Soda Pop Queen]

Diamond Boy, BMF, Crybaby, My Turn, Scorsese Baby Daddy, Love Me 4 Me, Drive and Get Behind Me are the ones!

I have to agree. The mixing is not IT but I'm still bopping regardless.

 

Hopefully they can perhaps re-mix it?

[Music^Man]

The project is kinda disappointing. No songs really stand out, they all feel like leftovers (which they were until this release). I hope for a more exciting new era to come.

[Uncatena]

well... lets just say I get why this was released as a deluxe and not a new project

[B-Luke]

I'm 100% sure I've heard the first portion of Kitchen before. Did she possibly post this on her stories at some point?  

[Club classic]

so many highlights

It was playing on one of the teasers for the album, the one in which she is peeing.

[TryMe]

I have read all the comments and I have to say the overall consensus is all over the place. 

 

So after yesterday I did not have the capacity to listen anymore.

 

I was so afraid she would disappoint and give us an acoustic/stripped down album. 

 

I'm currently on BMF and I loved every song.

The last 6 song batch is so good 

[brokee]

I don't know how sza keeps doing it  and there are more to come. songs that are released on her site to be released in streaming platforms and the behind the scenes of sos deluxe

[Saint James]

i'm really enjoying how they mixed her voice. it gives a bedroom feel that separates her music from other r&b and the endless sea of faceless pop.

Okay after first one and a half listen I have to say SOS has higher highs, but as a whole I like this better, it's more rnb.
