The purpose built next generation interstellar Dawn Richard thread

it's my duty to inform you that there's a napoleon dynamite sample in the kalenna mixtape

The ballad/banger tension is a lot of what's great about "Ass on the Floor"!

And like half the DDM catalog for that matter.

Chamber of Diaries is hit n miss but i like it, kinda hits that Last Train To Paris vibe more effectively for me than Tell Tale Heart. although i'm kind of weary of all the superhero-themed lyrics on both tapes.

R&B mixtapes should come out with special "no-bullshit anonymous guest rappers" versions the way rap mixtapes have "no-DJ" versions

but then you would never learn about bo deal

lol some dude otm

that "Gilfriend" song just sounds like an edit of Aaliyah's "Girlfriend" though, i don't hear Naomi

ahaha oops! that was dumb of me. i obv had no idea that song existed. it's so good! the vocals on the nguzu mix DO sound a hell of a lot like naomi to me, though, and the tracklist credits it to "NA", which i assumed meant N/A before alex pointed out those are naomi's initials. and the souped up beat sounds like kingdom or girl unit. now i'm really dying to know what it is exactly.

I thought it was Kingdom/ER related too ¯\(°_o)/¯

Whoa. I didn't know that existed! New Aaliyah. Wow. Yay.

finally got around to the kalenna mixtape

"poison" rules

LOVELOVELOVE HERRRR! "i wanna be in a rainforest!"

also excited to hear the #smfu remix

also producer guy is v. cute

apparently dirty money is "finished" though which is totally heartbreaking

that sucks... not entirely surprising. they put a ton of effort (and presumably) music into making that album happen, wish they would stay committed to it but the fact that 'last train to paris' even exists is some sort of miracle i think, so i can't be mad.

presumably money**

dawn's not signed to bad boy any more and the tone of the last kalenna interview i read ("that part of her life is BEHIND HER and she is MOVING ON") did not imply that the end of dirty money was all that amicable

also producer guy is v. cute

quit while you're on top, imo!

judging by the new projects, still on top tho

I didn't know you pronounce richard like ri-shard as in shard of glass

wait what?

I really can't handle her dress, it's like sean young in blade runner

i feel like my perception has been altered in a deep way not experienced since i found out nancy whang's name is pronounced "wong", not "wang"

pro tip: even when a chinese person's last name is 'wang' it's still pronounced 'wong'

i wonder if that's actually "true" or just something that she's stylized like a pseudo stage name

I'm not gonna question somebody about the pronunciation of their name

she's from louisiana tho

true

she seems very sweet

this is almost like the time i found out o'so krispie's real name is not o'so krispie.

actually it's nothing like that i just felt like dropping an o'so krispie reference tbh

u'so krispie

this is sooooooooooooo good

"Heaven"!

only 2/3 through, but album of the year?

this is not on uk itunes >:(

it's not on any itunes yet

album version of "save me from u" >>>>>>>>> og versio

n

this last track! the production is incredible throughout and the tunes are a lot better than Tell Tale Heart, which I know some people will jump on me for, but I was never that hot on

so jellie of you right now

http://music.aol.com/new-releases-full-cds#/8

on uk itunes. bought on sight. with money! on the day of release! can't remember the last time i did this

i'm not sure how i feel about the pronunciation of her surname, "ree-shard" seems a bit hyacinth bucket

and everyone knows the correct status affectation in r&b is the r&b acute

heh, another sade ref in "scripture"
