Is she SANGIN on any of these songs?
Quote from: Bigmacthawoppa on October 27, 2020, 05:49:49 PM
Is she SANGIN on any of these songs?
Not really. The songs for the most part are very trap pop in her delivery. She's dabbled into it a bit on TUN, but now its a lot more. She has a couple songs though where she is blowing. There's one where she's virtually singing in a whistle tone for the whole last chorus.
My fave song is the last song. Only 1 I really LOVE.
Maybe it'll grow on me overall tho. I didnt like Sweetner on 1st listen. But there arent any hit records on this album at all though. No clue what her other singles will be.

I actually like the album overall now. Still my least fave of hers overall though. I kinda hate that half the songs are 2 minutes.
It's a very stream friendly and radio friendly album. I wonder how many of these songs Victoria Monet gave away

Not one bit. Just better R&B songs. Some of the songs on the album sound basic and uninspired.
Upon further review, the album is decent. My Hair >>>>>>>>>> :plzstop:

I really like about 4 songs
This is giving me an uninspired ver of Sweetener
I'll see if its a grower
She needs to book Max Martin again
Just added. I'll listen tomorrow because way too much came out tonight
Just peeped the album credits and saw that Scott Storch produced My Hair. Geesh - this dude been cranking out the hits lately.
This is late and uninspired (so far). Everything sounding the same and a damn SNOOZE.
My Hair is a career highlight :plzstop:
The album is definitely a grower
I actually love this pocket for her.
i always wanted her to record a Urban album
Every... song... literally... sounds... the SAME. :uhh::uhh::uhh:
My Hair, Shut Up, & Motive >>>>
they give classic Ari
I can see it growing overtime... but this ain't it. So underwhelming. Definitely her worst album. This was the kinda mess should've keep at a max of 10 tracks. :dead:
Album is decent. It has some bops and she's doing her good singing on it. However, it gives me typical Ariana album. After "Yours Truly" all of her albums start to blend together....
Her whistles this album are so great
"My Hair" is everything.

I felt the same way on the first couple listens. Its still my least fave album of hers, but u'll get into it more after a few listens.
Love Language and POV need to be added to ur list tho.
The critics are lashing the album though.
Got in this morning, this is the successor for GODener that i've been waiting on....i'll just pretend like "No, THANK!" didn't happen :blessed:
Faves:
My Hair - this jazz tea!
Westside - gives me a slight Li
Obvious - She sounds so grown here
NASTY - :gorlonfire: :gorlonfire: :gorlonfire:
POV - BIIIIITTTTTCH! Takes us back to "Better Off" then
Dope album, my expectations were kinda low cause of Positions, figures she'd release one of the weaker songs first :dead:
This album is just ok. I don't think this girl will ever serve me a body of work that I'll love.
"My Hair", "34+35", "Safety Net", "Obvious" and "Love Language" are the only ones I use.

Uninspired is EXACTLY what I came in to say and then lovr of da Damn table came on :gorlonfire:
Her white gay fans are fuming so i feel like it's my mission to stan for this album now. Trying my best
"My Hair" needs to be sung by a Black Woman though. I can't suspend my disbelief on this particular track :kii: she sounds good though
This is definitely a filler album but with that said, it's still ok
Very listenable album, especially on a day like today. A whole mood and has great replay value. I like it.
I like positions a lil more now. AYEEEEE!
Positions is placed perfectly. Makes me appreciate it more as well
I listened to it this morning every song is good
Okay I'm about to listen for the first time.
This "shut up" song is cute but her cursing makes me scream sjdjsjjdjdj the way she overuses the words "fuck" and "shit" nowadays make me scream

!!! Victoria Monet co-wrote too just like on "Do It"
I appreciate what she was going for with the album but I can see how I some people don't use
Just finished the album. Here's my review mess
- - - -
1. Shut Up — 7/10. This was a really cute opener and I love her voice and the strings.
2. 34+35 — 5/10. Love the production and her voice but these lyrics are so embarrassing and she doesn't sound convincing singing these lyrics. Sex kitten! 69! Math class! nnnnn Ari gorl....
3. Motive ft. Doja Cat — 9/10. Ari's enunciation can be better but otherwise i LOVE this. Should definitely be a single.
4. Just Like Magic — 4/10. Boring as hell and extremely forgettable.
5. Off The Table ft. The Weeknd — 4/10. This BORING mess. Are they serious? :uhh: "Love Me Harder" was one of the best songs on My Everything and one of the best in her career. This collab was such a disappointment, they could've kept this mess.
6. Six Thirty — 3/10. Everything about this is lazy af. Lazy vocals, lazy production, and lazy songwriting. And this production sounds very similar to the Sweetener album.
7. Safety Net ft. Ty Dolla Sign — 5/10. I like the songwriting and Ty Dolla Sign's feature but this production and vocal is boring. Not a fan of her whisper vocals.
8. My Hair — 8/10. ACKKKK this slayed! Loved everything about this and I like the vocal acrobatics. Personally would've preferred if she sung the end in her regular voice rather than the whistle tho.
9. Nasty — 5/10. Nnnnn she just doesn't sound convincing when explicitly talking about sex. This and that 34+35 mess sound embarrassing and could've been kept. Vocals and production are lazy.
10. West Side — 6/10. This was really cute tbh. My only complaint is the song is way too short.
11. Love Language — 8/10. Really like this. I love the outro and wish it was longer. I don't know why but this song reminds me of "Greedy" from the Dangerous Woman album dddd. I think it's the disco/funk undertones during the chorus.
12. Positions — 4/10. A week later and I'm still not feeling this. Really don't know why she chose this as the lead single. I will say that it sounds much better on the album as an album track rather than a single.
13. Obvious — 6/10. This is cute but kinda forgettable. It sounds very similar to the other songs on this album.
14. POV — 5/10. It's a shame this song is boring af because I love her voice here! She sounds so pretty.
- - - -
Overall verdict
Score: 79/140 = 56%
The song has some cute songs but overall it's very mediocre. She sounds good (as always) but is it just me or was she holding back a lot? Listen to Dangerous Woman album or Sweetener album and she was really singing her ASS off on those 2 albums. The vocals on here were very subdued and low key. Also, the production was very one dimensional with most of the mess sounding the same. Some of the songs also sound like extras from the Sweetener/Thank U Next sessions. And the songwriting on this album was very mediocre. I have no problem with artists expressing themselves sexually but this was such a lazy and boring effort from her. This album is easily worse than Dangerous Woman, Sweetener & Thank U Next.... might even be worse than My Everything tbh.
Best tracks:
- Shut Up
- Motive
- My Hair
- West Side
- Love Language
- Obvious
Songs that should be released as singles: Motive, My Hair & Love Language
n
POV and positions are two of the best on the album....along with my hair :blink:
POV is the 1st song that snatched me. But after a couple more listens I got into My Hands n Love Language. If she went into a 70s disco vibe n worked with Kaytrandra it would been a fresh era. There was no need for her to release an album. Sis could've experimented more n release something In 2021.
Just like magic

I love the "Just like Magic" lyrics but the production is boring af
Really? I love it. Kind of reminds me of Ghostin, so dreamy
Album is def a grower. I even like Just Like Magic now.
This is a sexy grown woman album
It's the growth for me
Love this
A total Vibe
my hair is one of the best songs of her career.

5. Off The Table ft. The Weeknd — 4/10. This BORING mess. Are they serious? :uhh: "Love Me Harder" was one of the best songs on My Everything and one of the best in her career. This collab was such a disappointment, they could've kept this mess.
6. Six Thirty — 3/10. Everything about this is lazy af. Lazy vocals, lazy production, and lazy songwriting. And this production sounds very similar to the Sweetener album.
7. Safety Net ft. Ty Dolla Sign — 5/10. I like the songwriting and Ty Dolla Sign's feature but this production and vocal is boring. Not a fan of her whisper vocals.
8. My Hair — 8/10. ACKKKK this slayed! Loved everything about this and I like the vocal acrobatics. Personally would've preferred if she sung the end in her regular voice rather than the whistle tho.
9. Nasty — 5/10. Nnnnn she just doesn't sound convincing when explicitly talking about sex. This and that 34+35 mess sound embarrassing and could've been kept. Vocals and production are lazy.
10. West Side — 6/10. This was really cute tbh. My only complaint is the song is way too short.
11. Love Language — 8/10. Really like this. I love the outro and wish it was longer. I don't know why but this song reminds me of "Greedy" from the Dangerous Woman album dddd. I think it's the disco/funk undertones during the chorus.
12. Positions — 4/10. A week later and I'm still not feeling this. Really don't know why she chose this as the lead single. I will say that it sounds much better on the album as an album track rather than a single.
13. Obvious — 6/10. This is cute but kinda forgettable. It sounds very similar to the other songs on this album.
14. POV — 5/10. It's a shame this song is boring af because I love her voice here! She sounds so pretty.

Overall verdict
Score: 79/140 = 56%
The song has some cute songs but overall it's very mediocre. She sounds good (as always) but is it just me or was she holding back a lot? Listen to Dangerous Woman album or Sweetener album and she was really singing her ASS off on those 2 albums. The vocals on here were very subdued and low key. Also, the production was very one dimensional with most of the mess sounding the same. Some of the songs also sound like extras from the Sweetener/Thank U Next sessions. And the songwriting on this album was very mediocre. I have no problem with artists expressing themselves sexually but this was such a lazy and boring effort from her. This album is easily worse than Dangerous Woman, Sweetener & Thank U Next.... might even be worse than My Everything tbh.
Best tracks:
- Shut Up
- Motive
- My Hair
- West Side
- Love Language
- Obvious
Songs that should be released as singles: Motive, My Hair & Love Language
This analysis is pretty on point to be honest. For me anyway
Victoria shoulda kept "My Hair" for herself. I dont wanna hear no white girl singing that
can you stay UP ALL NIGHT

Just finished the album. Here's my review mess
- - - -
1. Shut Up — 7/10. This was a really cute opener and I love her voice and the strings.
2. 34+35 — 5/10. Love the production and her voice but these lyrics are so embarrassing and she doesn't sound convincing singing these lyrics. Sex kitten! 69! Math class! nnnnn Ari gorl....

She prob will make more money w/ Ari doing it.
But I will say that Jaguar >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Positions. Even that album title is uninspired as hell. Positions does get better with each listen though. Overall, I like it now.
Victoria collaborated with other writers for 'my hair' and was called in specifically for this project. There was no way for her to 'keep' the song. :dead:
Understood. Thanks
I still don't care to hear a white girl sing it. No big deal, i just don't use.
