it's super low key, doesn't really sound that different from "memoirs"
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 20 May 2014 16:26 (ten years ago) link
I really like "Dedicated" and "Meteorite".
― Herbie Handcock (Murgatroid), Tuesday, 20 May 2014 16:34 (ten years ago) link
listening to a shitty rip that's missing a couple of the songs but on first listen this seems to have a lot of real peaks but also feels more of a hodgepodge than memoirs - i felt that may have shied away from anything immediate but it felt conceived as a really well-sequenced album qua album, whereas this has something of a "just shove everything i've recorded over the past few years into one file" feel about it. but apart from the final ballads that i don't particularly care about most of it seems good-to-great at least

oh my god fabolous' bite of "trophies" on this album is so blatant that it has to be intentional right?
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 21 May 2014 18:34 (ten years ago) link
i actually think it's very nicely sequenced!
― maura, Wednesday, 21 May 2014 19:17 (ten years ago) link
Yeah my initial worry when they seemed to just be pushing the album out to finally get something out was that it would be a hodgepodge of material, but I think it all flows really well actually.

it definitely starts like a hilarious impression of shouty Drake but then he says "baby baby" in a Biggie voice without changing tone at all, pretty funny Fab foolishness

hollandaise is not really a luxury item mimi
There's at least one brilliant memorable moment in every song here.

Meteorite as the next single would be a dumb move
― surm, Sunday, 25 May 2014 20:03 (ten years ago) link
"dedicated" is this album's "candy bling" and i love it so
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Sunday, 25 May 2014 20:35 (ten years ago) link
xp if by that you mean "meteorite" needs to stay a deep cut, then yeah
― Cronk's Not Cronk (Eric H.), Sunday, 25 May 2014 20:51 (ten years ago) link
i love that you love it so xp, just like i loved that you loved candy bling as much as i did

They were goingto collaborate on a song together. Oh what a glorious mess that would've been.

it has happened except they didn't record it
http://chooniverse.tumblr.com/post/89146030996/for-the-part-of-the-song-that-goes-people-like
'For the part of the song [that goes] “People like you fuck people like me,” I wanted a screamer. So I called like three screamers. I called Gerard Way, who didn’t answer because he didn’t recognize the phone number. I called Brody. I called somebody else; nobody was around. I thought Billie Joe [Armstrong of Green Day] was around; he wasn’t around. So, I went over to my friend Bret’s house, and he’s a director … I [told him I] was too pitchy to scream this part. And this little voice goes, “I can sing it,” and I’m like “Who’s that?” And the little voice goes, “It’s Mariah.” And I’m like, “Okay, Mariah Carey, you cannot sing ‘People like you fuck people like me.’” She goes, “Yes I can. I did a rock record once; we just never released it.” So I went over there, and there’s no recording of it, but it was the two of us screaming—and she can rock sing. Mariah, she’s a badass. Like, she could rock sing. I couldn’t even believe it.'

Was thinking of polling the laughter on this album
― Wii u mario me? (wins), Wednesday, 18 June 2014 09:58 (ten years ago) link
heard "You Don't Know What To Do" on the radio today, had been skeptical about its single potential but it sounded pretty great.

That's my favorite song on the album even with Whale.

dedicated is still the baddest shit not on the radio
the songs on this album hold up really well, especially in light of disappointments like the ariana grande album, but i still think the sequencing does them a real disservice - i keep needing to skip around to hear what i want in the order that feels right
― lex pretend, Monday, 29 September 2014 13:19 (nine years ago) link
there's like 10 extra songs that don't need to be on the album
