Tinashe - 'Popstar'
Popstar is unique in Tinashe's discography because it is very succinct while still executing its concept perfectly; every song means something to the overall theme, sounds necessary next to each other, and helps to tell a story while still being an actually progressive, artful, ******* bop As its been said, this feels like a real culmination of her entire career, not only with actual references to the past, but in the sounds explored, its like glimpses of Nightride, then Songs for You, then Aquarius etc...but it doesnt feel like a reheat...more like an extremely precise refinement of what made those sounds pop - that alone would score major points in a scoring system Soo i think what's taking it over the edge critically is this very locked-in, maximized, confident af package (which makes the album cover more conceptually interesting...) It may not seem as adventurous/explorative as her previous works, but in giving us this chaotic and complicated and c*nty perspective of a Popstar while still remaining very vulnerable, forward-thinking ("Sunglasses" is her best opener ever...Melatonin obvious best pop song of the year...Janet, Britney, twigs, Bjork-Worship on one album...I mean who else???) It's all very impressive ! I knew this would be her hottest album, and it is

RIP ANGEL - "Aaliyah's comin back...tell me if you're ready..."- Is Taylor about to enter her 'Witness'-era?
- Tinashe - 'Popstar'
delulu But you're right, this feels like a very special era for T...I recommend you go back and listen to the mixtapes, like Reverie...or even Amethyst...Tinashe has ALWAYS had a distinctive style -- and that's held her back She's just been ahead of the game imo...sure, Kpop biting her style is well-known, but something like "Needed Me" is basically a Tinashe song, deadass...she has been in her own lane and pop/r&b has consistently stolen from her little credit (if any) Anyway, she's really firing on all cylinders this era...this is bound to be her hottest album.- Pitchfork: Tyla is replacing Rihanna; Tyla retweets
Hacked X account, AI video flop, sophomore album slumping off the charts, pitchfork setup, ignored by Rihanna, and no SOS, Unfaithful, or even a We Ride in sight... Oh it's bad for her, yet again- Sky Ferreira has a meltdown on random Instagram post about her, replies to everyone
And her one album is better than all those other nobodies Who cares- Rihanna is currently recording new music, according to A$AP Rocky
no we cannot- Perez Hilton self-harms and has mental breakdown on TikTok live, police at his house
Disfiguring his body into a bloody pulp for the world to see is an insanse thing to think is in a rational person's wheelhouse He is suffering from post-sepsis psychosis The man may have a terrible reputation, but plenty of people were actively uplifiting him and reading his bullshit celeb content. Let us not act like he was just trolling into the void. He gave the people what they wanted and the internet is an even sicker place because of it. - RIP Aaliyah: Aug 25, 2001
