jj no. 2: A mix of Scandinavian balearic (I know)/outer space R&B/folk-y gloriousness...

half the shit labelled balearic just sounds like saint etienne 2 me

balearic is a ~~mindset~~

few influences here and there

didnt think i really fucked w/ the st etienne indie end of balearic but i will fuck w/ this in a second, the version of that akon song they do is the best of their rnb covers, but i guess just bc i dont like the orig. (on the other hand their lollipop and birthday sex covers are just limp sounding 2 me)

what is the reason that their 2nd album is so much less acclaimed same review in p4k i think gave it like half the score?

also this is shockingly awesome

they are good at being "inscrutable"

what is that 5 minutes thing? from their 2nd album?

no its from swedish radio, like a mini mixtape i guess

I'm grindin' until I'm tired
You say you ain't grindin' until you die

you posted on the wrong lil wayne thread

blasphemy, i'm sure, but these days i'd rather hear jj than The Game

well yeah, it's just weird that you posted those lyrics as if she wrote them

wasn't my intent. just love the way she sings them.

these days i'd rather hear jj than The Game

^^^^^

these any day

their schtick has grown soo tired imo, it's starting to remind me of those open-mic acoustic guitarists who take pop songs and just slow em down and sing em all heartfelt-like

yeah that cover reminds me of youth group music in the worst way. zzzzzzzz.

i think it sounds really pretty but i'm a total sucker for jj's sound

How much mileage do you think is left in this idea? I am enjoying this mixtape but I can see how it's twee feyness would irritate.

Scandinavia doesn't feel very Balearic these days:
