Ampersand13

I was just about to say the same thing. Saw the announcement and thought surely there would be a date in LA I'm still holding out hope she'll add a date or two on the west coast

Hot

I think it's time to upgrade my 13Pro. It's been my favorite iPhone (and phone) every by far but she's been struggling lately

The one thing I’ll say about Like I Do is that I wish it had a powerful bridge and final chorus. That opening verse is SUCH a moment. She sounds angry yet in control and the chorus is an earworm. I just wish she really went in on a bridge lyrically/thematically (kind of like how Hate’s bridge is the thesis of that song) but regardless she’s a bop

Methinks the video made me like the song a little more. She looks so hot

I mean I'm still steaming and honestly falling more in love with this album the longer I sit with it. I hope time is kind to Petal, I genuinely believe it to be one of Ari's bests

Original key no less That's Mother Clarkson - The American Idol

What a f-ing titan and legend with the voice of a god I will always love Kelly

WaiT. I feel so vindicated. I said it when this song got released that it was a certified bop and could not understand the lukewarm reaction

Just wanted to say this album has gotten even better for me and I already really enjoyed it on impact Title track, Kiss Me, Stay, Freak, Bad Thing, Nowhere Nobody in particular but literally everything (including Warning Signs which is a perfect interlude in my opinion). Sad that it hasn't been embraced like some of her previous records, but this will go down as one of my favorites in her catalogue methinks.

Consistency Cannot wait for the day everyone wakes up and realizes how great of an album Petal is. Regardless, a hit lead single with longevity and a second single shaping up to be a hit as well on top her second highest debut over a decade into her career? That's not anything to scoff at in my opinion

I've spent the last six days moving so I wasn't able to really listen or engage too much with reactions. I really enjoy this album and was sure it was going to be praised and welcomed so you might guess my surprise when I discovered it's been polarizing. Kiss Me is such a banger of an opener. So lush yet full of melancholy. The title track and video demonstrating Ari at her most forward with regard to her frustrations with the industry. Stay, Freak, Oh Well, the closing track I think this is a great album with some heartbreaking insights. In fact, I'm not sure there's a track I outright dislike

I think it's a bop Had me moving at my desk with my morning coffee

I truly do not understand these reviews. I think this is a very consistent, cohesive and personal effort. Was instantly pulled into Petal from the very first track and I'm truly confounded that its reception has been this polarizing.

Legendary song Kesha sounds amazing
