xxp there are some Grimes fans who feel betrayed by all this for sure, but I always thought a big part of Grimes 'brand' was being the subject of memes and meta-humour by the Very Online, and the Musk thing just consolidates that if anything? (Musk is obviously also one of the significant 'characters' in Very Online memes and meta-humour which is why I think ppl are finding all of this so funny, like the divisions between funny tweets where and reality are breaking down?)

Soref otm it’s not grimes who misunderstands her brand here ...

Real talk I’ve long insisted on calling him elton musk, to the point that when I came up with my excellent sn I nearly published it as “eltonio” (which actually works a lot better) before I remembered that was based on the joke name I gave him & not his actual name

fuck. i tried doing that before. anyway Elton Musk says "So heavy I fell thru the earth" is about to come out. https://www.reddit.com/r/Grimes/comments/8li9pc/wanna_fall_through_the_earth/

She needs to release something soon so we can finally decide if Grimes is over.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Wednesday, 23 May 2018 22:43 (five years ago) link
she needs to release a demo, followed months later by a studio cut, then we can extend the thread by a thousand more posts.
― morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 23 May 2018 22:47 (five years ago) link
if we're going to figure this out, we should continue to hype this entire mess to completely disproportionate levels so that the story starts to spill into the mainstream just as the new single lands

welcome to realiti!

tbf this is a good career move for her, generates controversy/attention, and sets her up for a big redemption act when they inevitably break up
(full disclosure I give no shits about her music/career and am only dimly aware of her/don't care)

Just heard Realiti demo and it reminded me how great it is... so that’s a free of sin pass for me. I’ll ignore her response tweets all is forgiven c, peace.

I don’t want him to turn her into a bond villain like him.

She's a 30yo, grown woman. She is well past the point of needing help being a shitty person. Why not just go full misogny and say she's been dickmatized?

somebody stop this thread

lmao at Slappy being mad that this thread isn't misogynist enough to get performatively angry about. "c'mon guys! i can defend grimes too! just, gimme something to work with here."

"you don't have to call her names or anything. i'd take some mild slut-shaming, or even body-shaming in a pinch. i'm jonesing real bad here."

We should start a new thread once new music actually starts dropping.

well there's a teaser for new music she's involved in so that's something that's less of a trainwreck to discuss

...tbh she might be a horrible person but I find AZB's music on average way more enjoyable than Grimes'

She’s surrounding herself with some good company lately.

maybe we get lucky and this story ends with AZB making a ritual sacrifice out of him

azb is ridiculous but would love to hear her collab with grimes (if it doesnt lead to ridiculous beef between the two)

so this one is like my ethereal chav jam that’s like ... a cyberpunk interpretation of the bajirao mastani movie (plz watch this incredible film if u haven’t) from mastanis perspective, dunno if it makes sense without the low end. these r just demos bein recorded thru my phone so pic.twitter.com/mdyXQyScj5— Grimes (@Grimezsz) June 5, 2018
well i said i’d post some snippets of new music earlier so this prob sounds terrible thru my phone recording but it’s the cheesy love song i was talking about that i don’t like but everyone else likes, made the instrumental w my new mellotron! pic.twitter.com/KDZLIY8OcF— Grimes (@Grimezsz) June 5, 2018

warning: this is probably the very worst way in the entire universe to hear snippets of new music from an artist you like
