Listening to the entirety of Like a Prayer by Madonna after going through a rather shameful public outing without my consent feels empowering.

I honestly think that Tate McRae's upcoming album's cover would have been better if it's just the side-head portrait a la Olivia Newton-John's Physical and Madonna's True Blue.

@Chris yes, it’s like 2 album covers smashed into 1

It's fascinating how revisionism works. Katy's Teenage Dream album has only 6 good songs, 7 at a stretch, and used to be degraded and hated by anyone who wasn't teenage girls. Now, it's the "perfect pop album" of all time?
-
I don't like her that much, but gotta admit that Katy's album covers are some of the most, at least, coherent of all pop girls. They may not all be good, but every single one of 'em actually makes for a surprisingly aesthetically satisfying collection. Each one has element continuation(s) to the next one whether it's in term of color inclusion, certain object found in one image that can also be found in the next one, etc.

It's not fun to assess our popstars with longform think pieces all the time. I mean I'm disgusted by Katy Perry's recent character development of working back with Luke, and there's no but. I am disgusted.

You know what. I like Sweetener actually. I know I keep switching but... hey. Anyway blazed and the light is coming can choke though. The transition from raindrops to blazed is still so bizarre while the light is coming has Minaj. No.

You know what? Witness could have been a much tighter album if Katy had just kept around 10 songs for the standard version. Something like this:
1. Witness
2. Swish Swish or Roulette
3. Deja Vu
4. Power
5. Mind Maze
6. Miss You More
7. Chained to the Rhythm
8. Tsunami
9. Pendulum or Save as Draft
10. Into Me You See or Pendulum
That would've ate a bit. Hey Hey Hey is tragic, Bon Appetit is fun but not fitting the "purposeful pop" aim especially when it features Migos, others are deluxe material at best and should've been left unreleased at worst. I mean, what was Bigger Than Me even about? The Hilary Clinton loss situation? Wasn't that Rise, though?

Illusion by Dua Lipa is a fine song although it borrows a bit more elements than necessary from Hallucinate. Interestingly, it makes an admirable effort to evolve from the latter's initial hazy-eyed sickly in love lyrical content into that of realization about how men ain't shit sometimes. Another thing to note, does that breakdown remind you of something? Cuz it totally sounds like La Perry's own instrumental breakdown from her song International Smile. Relevant queen!

Babe, when have I ever been that clown's bff? I literally put them on ignore and always opposed them.

Does anyone hear the similarities between The Cardigans' Lovefool and Lady Gaga's Summerboy? I just noticed.

Reading reviews of Mariah's albums from the '90s is so funny. Most of them are basically just "hey, she sings so well it can't be real, therefore she must be a terrible singer actually." Like, what kind of professional criticism is that?

I don't know why I find myself listening to Artpop right now, but I am. The second half is where it gets truly helpless. As the composition is mostly fine if not a little too top 40 of 2013-sounding (although I'm not sure if top 40 songs back in 2013 actually sound like that) while the production just feels like copy paste of each other. It's so different to the bulk of production of the first half which was quite pristine. I mean, her 'artpop' did mean anything. Just a shame that it includes redundancy.

Review Discography Review: Katy Perry's Albums
Tama posted a blog entry in Present Time Calls for Current Ideas
In 2020, I had created a thread meant to rank Katy's discography prior to Smile's arrival. However, since Smile is officially here, I'm going to make a rank listing all of her albums so far. I'll also add her Katy Hudson album at the end for a simple kii. Enjoy! *Note: I keep editing this entry, dear God please make it stop. *Another note: Fuck. It never stopped. 1. Welcome to her best album! Prism is, finally, Katy's undoubtedly best album to date. Sure, it has "Roar" (which is a #1 hit song btw) and it kinda sucks. I mean, take a look at the opening li -
Editing a blog entry that no one even reads. What a way to live my life.

Kylie's Tension sounds like a club remix of a different sounding original song. It's good, but again sounds like a remix.

Apparently, Glitter had a "for promo only" version which has a very different tracklist. It can be found here: https://www.discogs.com/release/1676479-Mariah-Carey-Glitter Look at the tracklist. What do you think of it? Personally, I find it rather odd because it's as if all of the ballads were grouped in the last leg of the album. I think it's for the clubs and that's why the uptempos were the main focus? Idk for sure. It also seems that this tracklist follows the plot of the movie compared to the official one. It's fascinating though, given the tracklist that we're used to connects

This is not a bop. Barely a song. What the fuck is this? I should probably blame her for allowing this shit to be made, but given that william is the devil I'll put the full blame on him instead. Again, what the fuck is this!

Single Britney Spears & will.i.am | Mind Your Business | July 21

Snow's topic in Britney Spears
Awful mess. He should be the one in a conservatorship. -
Listening to music feels not so fun now. Maybe it'll pass, but I don't like this feeling.
