The mixtape (which is my 2nd favourite album of 2011) is so good that it's hard for me not to think of it as her debut album.

sez wikipedia (sics all over the place):
The Mix-tape The Prelude to A Tell Tale Heart or alternate title: #ATellTaleHeart[9][10][11] was released February 7, 2011 on her official web-site. There are 15 tracks.[10][12] It called "the prelude to..." because there will be official debut studio album by Dawn Richard entitled A-Tell Tale Heart, which she is working on for past 3 years.[13] She is working with Trendsetter (producer) on few tracks for that album.[14][15] Celebrating the release of her mix-tape, Dawn Richard organized several club events. On February 7, 2011 at "Milan" club in Baltimore[16][17] and on February 12, 2011 at PHX – "Nightclub MIXTAPE PARTY RELEASE".[18]
Dawn has announced that her major solo debut project will be a broken up trilogy of albums entitled "GoldenHeart, "BlackHeart", and "RedemptionHeart". "GoldenHeart", the first of the trilogy is expected to be released late 2011.[19] On June 19, 2011 a buzz track entitled "Stuck On Mad" was released to the public. Followed by a release of a remix to Frank Ocean's Novacane. The remix which was co-written by songwriter Intyce, hit the net on June 21, 2011 and reached over 5000 downloads within a few hours. Intyce was enlisted as one of the writers for Richards solo debut.[20]
2011-present: Golden Heart
SMFU (SAVE ME FROM U) was released on the internet 31st October and is set to be on the first album.[21] This album is set to have an concept of a alter-ego named NEON. The concept has not yet been discussed.

there is WAY too much ryan tedder on that tracklist for me to feel comfortable

so far I'm only interested in dawn

yeah it's great - some excellent beats, she's very charismatic, you wouldn't be able to tell ryan tedder was on it. only given it one cursory listen cuz am on double deadline and have to listen to other stuff today :(

Looking forward to this, but much further to the outskirts of the media ecosystem than you, Lex - keen to hear yr thoughts.

media ecosystem?

oh wait as in PR and shiz? lol, i haven't been PRed any of this, i hear about it through following dawn on tumblr and kalenna on twitter exclusively
i'm about to listen to the Kalenna in a bit, but I'm LOVING the new Dawn song. Much much better than #SMFU and December Sky:

was the kalenna mixtape any good? i couldn't get a copy that would open on my computer, for whatever reason
― illuminati girl (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 06:56 (twelve years ago) link
it's excellent - dawn's is prob better but "matte black truck", "pain & alcohol", "love rock", "ladder" and "put it in a bag" in particular are stunning
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 11:50 (twelve years ago) link
although setting dawn and kalenna against each other is probably unhelpful, they're superficially similar but actually quite different
i think my review should go up on fact at some point

i love how kalenna responds to getting dumped by drink-driving and blasting wu-tang on not one but two separate songs
driving in the rain with the music loudcup out the window, swag on kanyegoing the wrong way, listening to wu-tangcuz i'm feeling like a white girl on cocainetook three vicodin, i feel strangepushing 100, hitting curves in the rainyou shouldn't drive drunk with love on the brain
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 15:41 (twelve years ago) link
can we add kalenna to the thread title btw? think two separate threads would be a bit pointless
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 15:43 (twelve years ago) link
also: she ends that song singing from beyond the grave!
haha yeah. what's the other song with wu-tang? can't remember how it goes
― flagp∞st (dayo), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 15:45 (twelve years ago) link
"matte black truck"!

Didn't even know this thread *existed*.
Getting 'Chamber of Diaries' now, but Black Lipstick is wonderful and the most of either of their solo stuff that really FEELS like something that could fit into LTTP.

Kalenna's Feeling Good samples Avicii's 'Levels', right?
― Somewhere between Fergie and Jesus (Alex in Montreal), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 18:28 (twelve years ago) link
Hence the inverted title of "Good Feeling" as in the Etta sample from Levels that never actually appears in this song?
― Somewhere between Fergie and Jesus (Alex in Montreal), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 18:29 (twelve years ago) link
i have never heard "levels" and indeed i have never heard of avici
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 18:45 (twelve years ago) link
you've heard 'good feeling' by Flo Rida? It's the same sample?
― Somewhere between Fergie and Jesus (Alex in Montreal), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 18:51 (twelve years ago) link
It's the same sample. rather
