Wait so is this a flip of unknown loverz??? Assuming not sonically but i do hear certain cadences of unknown loverz in here this is obv just inverted can someone confirm or is it just a sick new song because regardless i do love it

@purplelacebra with all the respect and love for what you've already spilled ... i know u said "mid" ... but does that mean another uptempo or is she trying to like purposely lane switch and get people talking? i hope its still a banger. are we expecting a banger as in mid because it sounds like a tate banger? phewww

@purplelacebra wait for realssss??? shes dropping on new years day ??? hmmm. Plz spill on the lead? is it a bop?

YOU MEAN. BRAINROT ISNT LIKE THE PREVIEW? I FEAR I SET MYSELF UP. :((((( dang. accountability matters hahahaha

Also i get wanting an artist to succeed but why do the numbers matter so much in terms of Miley like, i dont really think she cares that much. I also just think as a fan that streaming analytics shouldnt determine how someone views a song if its not up to par. Just enjoy or dont listen lmao. Some brutal songs are charting right now so....

I actually think this is great. Feels like she took little bits and bobs from all her albums here and landed on this. It's definitely got a little more commercial polish of ESV but thrown into a dead petz base, while also pulling from those dance tracks on something beautiful and making them a bit more grittier and weird. I feel like her entire shtick is what is she going to do next so I love that she kind of took the best parts of a lot of her albums and moshed them here. Definitely seems like she had a lot more creative control here but just promised them a few more radio singles hahah. REDLIGHTS is like ... a bit country esque too. I also feel like lyrically shes a lot more honest and raw on this one

Also lots of discourse online somewhere saying there are reports shes going to do this next era independent. Based on what Lydia was saying I doubt that they're holding up all this timing to just eventually launch indie. The way they're describing it, they at least need a distro deal to get her to the top of stuff and funding. The music videos she envisions etc absolutely take more than an indie budget. I could be wrong and I do just want new music from her period HOWEVERR - I do think she'd benefit from a new label system and the sentiment Lydia talking about everything being aligned does check out

Apologies if i missed anything in here in terms of preview of the sound of the album past the lead but question was just that .... does the album sound like the lead?

This is definitely not as bad as people make it out to be lol. I definitely understand the business move. The wild part too is that she said multiple times that she pushed for this sound as she wants to be a pop star and not just have some industrial dark pop cult following. Now BEFOREEE you jump down my throat, nothing wrong with that and I loveeeee dark pop but I do think a girl in her position, with her versatility.. it makes sense going this route for now. She literally needs to and wants to be accessible to more mainstream audiences vs being the girl who didnt make katseye. She definitely still has her personality in some of these songs. I'm not at all saying this is a masterpiece lol but I actually think she gives euro pop star and fully delivers and gives. People are saying shes not giving euro slavic pop star but like .... thats kind of the point? She intentionally set out to make this kind of album to cater to this market, proving that eastern euro girls can do it too. Once again i totalllyyyy get it considering her prior output however, she definitely said in a few interviews that this album is much different and less angry and experimental than the ep

Also is NastyDirtyGross the only bonus track arent their vinyl bonuses too orrrrr??

Look I agree that if youre going from her EP to this people are probably like uhhhhhhhhh what? But she said herself in the interviews in the spring before the demi tour/ right before KGB that this album is a lot more girly and how the provocateur was more messaging and a response to what happened on the show and how she was perceived. I dooo think that if the goal is more mainstream appeal it makes sense as to why the EP sound was not gonna work to expand her audience although i like both. I alsooooo think she did keep what we like about her like her dance moves that are a little off kilter and hella into the ballet moves. This is definitely pallet cleanser to let people know that shes not that girl that wasnt chosen for KATSEYE anymore lol.

Watch the Keke Palmer interview babe I didn't just pull it out of therapy at the club booty

Need someone to rip the cd exclusives there's 3 more tracks

By the way, people in here were expecting just a part two of their debut. The girls have got to branch out and make their music more accessible to an American audience, and I completely understand the artistic choice. The fact that people are dragging it because of that is wild! If anything, these girls have literally said in their interviews that they don't even consider themselves a mainly R&B girl group. Their most popular songs are pop leaning, and the only reason people think that they're R&B is because of the color of their skin. I feel like a lot of y'all are telling on yourselves here.

I feel like the storytelling budgets and even them having more control and showing more of their personality separates them from being compared to nostalgic girl groups of the past. Although I'm obsessed with their debut, don't get me wrong, feel like everybody was comparing it to essentially like a Destiny's Child tribute. Once again, this was a smart choice on their end.
