Say Now - "Met my match"
I hate to hate but this is just a reheat of what has already worked. pinkpantheress had to create her own lane! FLO had to create their own lane! i don't even mind hand-me-down nachos sometimes but this is just toooooo on the nose (and it makes me think these girls are directionless.) but i love this for them and i hope they capitalise hard x

Isaac Dunbar - "Princess"
Came from the viral tweet (it always starts on twitter). This is screaming a breakout hit
-
Troye Sivan - "Party"
Song + video are so fab. If he gave Got Me Started 2.0 or Easy 2.0 there would be complaints. Can't believe everyone has switched up on him like this with these amazing singles like
-
RAYE f/ Amma & Absolutely - "Joy"
South London queen honestly!
-
ADÉLA - "Nicole Kidman"
This is song of the year like
-
Trim - "GET HIT"
who is mad at her because they stripped in the club? love her though, she's such a kiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
-
Cardi B - "AH HA"
This was so boring to me before the video, she definitely ate that, and now I wanna be in New York walking down a street or something. I realised that this is just another Up variant (AH HA is 'If its UP then its STUCK') chorus gimmick. Hopefully she does something different next time

Ice Spice f/ Lil Yachty - "Out My Face (My Baby)"
Awful follow up to the seminal SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants BIG GUY
-
FLO - 'Therapy at the Club'
Omg this TikTok... they're working on a budget of 10 dollars for three people. Girl

FLO - 'Therapy at the Club'
Gorgeous press photo for New Music Friday UK and Essence and Apple Music UK R&B album signing in NY on Monday and their management has said: good luck ladies! and everyone buy and stream.

Tyla - 'A*POP'
This album.... she's just not serious. Everyone at Epic needs to lose their jobs. I was going to write all my frustrations with her album but I'm not going to put that all on her, cause I'm sure multiple executives heard this and agreed this was the album she needed to release to further her career, so there's an element of sabotage baked into to her record contract (I'm sure of it). DYNAMITE and MR. MEDIA are better than everything on this entire project and for all the hate she gets from Nigeria she might need to rebrand into being a (strictly) AFROBEATS artist, the "african crossover pop" vision was there (in the visuals too) but the output is so bad. This album is a shame following up from TYLA+

Latto f/ Doja Cat - "Okayyy"
- Gracie Abrams - 'Daughter from Hell'
This album is OK as a new fan introduced to her from the TSOU singles... but it's crazy when a "behind-the-scenes" type songwriter starts finding success as an artist there's always an air of "they were the real brains behind the operation" to **** on said artist (julia michaels, victoria monet, etc.) so this album needed to be stronger (marketing-wise too, i don't think the haircut has done her any favours this era ) to weather the Audrey comparisons better. Good luck to her with that.... My favorite songs are: death wish, sober, mews, hit the wall, minibar, the knife- Tyla - 'A*POP'
She's releasing an album at the end of the month? Who knew? Certainly not anyone outside of the internet considering there's been like 0 marketing for this album... one magazine shoot three months ago, dud singles, no televised performances for these singles (AMAs + BET Awards came and went, was nominated for both too), just very low effort. I was promised HYBE was going to supercharge her career to new heights. They've dropped the ball on her so tremendously, which is a little bit ridiculous cause I'm sure her team are aware of the constant pitchforks are on her (nigerians + the african american generic public + now rihanna fans) so every t and i needed to be crossed and dotted when it came to this album. Good luck to her tho there might be a saving grace / Jump somewhere.. and the reviews are looking good. (I'm just scared for the first week sales backlash. they've just spent the last month tearing Lizzo and other black women in pieces)- Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley separated after 3 years, Margaret confirms
WOW! So I guess, according to Cardi B and Lizzo, all the rumours are true. Some of my twitter mutuals were in #uproar ages ago on how she changed her instagram handle right after she starred in that music video but I'm so gagged, I know she was dying waiting for the Taywedding to be over, she couldn't even wait a week. Crazy crazy crazy never doubt the internet unpaid sleuths !! - Gracie Abrams - 'Daughter from Hell'
