This is just...kind of obnoxious? lol. Bells Collection was a pretty decent mixtape, MATA had a couple cute moments, and OHMNI was a solid standalone single in 2020, but I think it's time for me to accept we're never getting anything on the level of her early 10s/00s stuff again

Something on the level of Matangi would be a miracle at this point, let's be real 

[JoeAg]

omg this is giving me kind of a stroke to listen to 

Spoiler

it would almost be a cute bop with different lyrics

 

[HASHTAGPOW]

That was a.. choice 

[technoprayer]

the way i went to press play quickly thinking "no it can't be that bad cuz we had OHMNI and some mata bops..........."

 

well.

 

 

it's not exactly THAT BAD but it's not THAT GOOD. still better than half AIM lol

[John Slayne]

how can you go from being a creative genius to this i just don't understand

 

[psychodiva336]

Wait. This is such a vibe! I hope this is a taste of what's to come in the near future cause this is a very intriguing and new sound for her.

 

Very airy, very ethereal and almost hypnotic. The lyrics are beautiful too - feel them or not, I can't help but feel happy for her cause this song emits such tranquility. I feel like I'm in a futuristic monastery when I listen to this 

 

And the melodies, while minimal, are still catchy! I can tell this is gonna be stuck in my head! Especially the "fire fire fire fire catch a fire run" bit

This song is what I imagine what she thinks 5G waves sound like

 

 

[BlahBlahBlah]

Still polarizing 20 years into her career, still experimenting and making genre-blending work
