Meg suing yall, Ari tired of J Cole bullshit, Halsey needs break

Comments

Oof. An entire word. Say it again 👏🏿

Tanya Ware

music reviewers these days want their opinions to be validated by stans so bad, that’s why they take stan Twitter talking points and insert them in their reviews, it breeds engagement and it’s so unserious, if you make 80% of your review being speculative about ariana grande being a homewrecking bitch, yeah ppl are gonna clip that up and spread it as if it’s a gag when that has nothing to with her music 😭

ceeitrus

I like how you say OCKchually

I’m glad Meg is suing them for everything they got. Also, yes.. her management team is doing what needs to be done! Brand deals on brand deals. Sis also learned to align herself with a different crowd and a new target audience after the abuse she endured at the hands of the black community (not all of us, but enough) during the Tory lanes debacle. I’m glad sis is currently eating and thriving, while his gremlin ass is behind bars being big mad. Halsey—— Ppl always wanna break their necks to label ppl as black even when said people have 2 non-black parents. Irks me. Also, who is Raya???

I'm a fan of Charli but chiiiillle Fantano is like insanely Charli biased. Back even when I saw past reviews of her albums I was like.........okay he glazing a liiiiiiil bit much idk- 😂

Tbf, from what I remember, I think it was Halsey saying she's a black woman that turned some people off and gave poser vibes. As in there was a point in time where she didn't even settle for "mixed," but just black and it was...strange (imo). That's why there's that joke about it in SWARM. I can't speak to her music though since I personally choose not to listen, but I agree that music critique has been weird overall. It either gives paid review or personal attack and either way it has nothing to do with the music.

I miss when men used to BEG on the track. On their knees pleading. CRYING in the rain.

Alright now Chile ntm on coco getting that Grammy. Sister girl been working like A DOG since like 12 😭😭

Manna Steel

Yes Kenya teach the girls how to give a proper review lol

I think it’s important to note that the Bible lied to women. Men are not here to be your protectors. They are the greatest threat to women. A lot of black people unfortunately still want to protect these abusive men like Tory Lanez, and bash black women like Meg. The community will never grow if we are still supporting and feeding these blogs like The Shade Room. It’s sad how Meg was treated by so many.

Tiara

GASPPPPP you don’t like RAYE?! I LOVEEE her!! 😍😍😍😭😭😭

Dani

OMGGG me too!! đŸ€ŁđŸ˜‚đŸ€ŁđŸ˜‚đŸ€Ł

Dani

yupppp, i can read a review and ill see a line that i KNOW ive seen in a hateful tweet
girl separate your jobs! its like they say snarky and senseless shit bc they want a perfect screenshot to make the rounds on twitter, and to get praised for their drags
what happened to the music??

risa kim

I’m curious to know where you rank Self Titled in your BeyoncĂ© Album rankings

Ramone Paris

meg being in a Venom promo was hilarious and amazing. she is everywhere

Abbie Nunez

Crazy how these niggas are terrorizing black women and can't even own their own damn labels

Whitney Jarrett

I dislike today’s rnb as well. I cant stand the vibey music and monotone singing.

Cosmic Orbit

Kenya summed it up perfectly

Dejavu

barely related, but "senseless nigga babble" and "made up monkey shit" are two of the funniest twitter phrases I've seen recently and they're evergreen, too 😭

rudi!!!

“He the one sitting in the clinkity clank” 😭😭😭😭

happy late birthday kenya ❀

YNK

no fr i was wondering
ain’t that the point of an album? who tf else is gonna be main character of MY album? perry the platypus?

Imani Branch

That was such a weird thing to say, like the girl can’t even talk about her own illness and not wanting to die on her own album without it being main character syndrome like no shit she’s talking about herself lmao, mind you he gave brat a 10 and Charlis whole personality on that album is cosplaying like it’s 2001 spring break

ceeitrus

the problem with internet ppl being music critics is that they’re covert celebrity gossip fodder and they simultaneously want to be perceived as objective and unbiased while also being in the weeds and in stan business and insert that into their reviews when it has nothing to do with anything unless the music tells otherwise, and that type of criticism is starting to bleed into ACTUAL music critique, bc I’ll read a review and 80% of the review has nothing to do with the technical, artistic, lyrical content or even how the artist performs their own song, just the reviewer talking about how X artist didn’t talk about their business enough or they talk about it too much, or like Fantano said Halsey has main character syndrome like girl we dgaf review the songs lol, and even with tortured poets, a lot of reviews were like she’s too over exposed and releases too much music and needs to slow down and give other ppl a chance, WTF does that have to do with the album, not to say you can’t have your own personal biases when it comes to certain artists and reviewing, but most of these reviews have nothing to do with the ACTUAL musical content, they’re just being covert celebrity gossips that has no place in a music review 😭

JAIL

KRYSTAL

I was kinda disappointed bc I thought with the way Halsey was marketing the album that the songs would sound noticeably identifiable to the artist and decade she’s referencing when most of them don’t, and some of the songs sound semi similar to eachother , the only identifiable era songs were the singles, and even though I liked those songs they still sound like diet versions of the artist or decade referenced or not at all, for example, she made a post about one of the songs “Lonely Is The Muse” and that it was inspired by Evanescence (a metal band), upon finding out that information after bumping that song for 3 weeks, I quirked my head and was like
.hmmm, i don’t think so lol Evanescence music is identifiably 90% Amy Lee (the lead singer) singing, so if you’re telling me you’re making an evanescence song I expect it to sound like that, obviously Halsey doesn’t sing like how Amy sings and I don’t expect her to but c’mon it doesn’t sound like an Evanescence song or even inspired by it, so I get the criticism that it sounds like she’s kind of a poser bc that’s exactly what it comes off as, and she’s not doing it particularly well, there’s another song that’s supposed to be inspired by Aaliyah and it don’t even remotely sound like Aaliyah or r&b, like pls be serious 😭

ceeitrus

Barbz are a big part too â˜č

Nayaa

As a Halsey stan, i appreciate you calling out the meanness of people towards her.

Amber Loveshe

The Meg hate is so forced and unserious, ppl are mad bc they thought they were gonna gotcha her with the Tory lanez situation and it didn’t work so they’re throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks, if they’re not talking about who she’s fucking , it’s her body, or how she raps and her music, two of three being irrelevant asf, and then there’s the barbs who hate anybody going against nicki, and it’s crazy bc they genuinely believe they know what they’re talking about, you ask any of them monkey see monkey do niggas about the trial and the evidence, they’ll pull up some fuckshit they saw online and when you prove them wrong they’re like “well I didn’t know that much about it anyway” WHAT???? LMAOOOOO, it’s pure delusion that ppl genuinely believe tory lanez should’ve been able to shoot off a gun not be punished for that

ceeitrus

I think Harry’s house was great because of its cultural relevance and his ability to capture a time. Dropping a cell phone, sushi restaurant, therapy. There were a lot of relevant themes he incorporated and it made sense it stuck. I am unfamiliar with Elton John so I didn’t catch the reference but I’m sure he was inspired by it and even copied a lot from it. The same way cowboy carter had like 4 cover songs from the Beatles to Dolly Parton and others and the country community is trying to understand her personal story in relation to the album. This is such an interesting conversations

Alivia

I think the music criticism conversation is GREAT! I think Billie gives those interview herself about the music, there are a few Apple Music interviews and a bunch of other interviews she did with smaller channels to describe the story behind the song. I think that the real music people find these interviews for most artists and others just go on YouTube, I feel like they just turned on the radio and became “[REVIEWERS]”

Alivia

ive been going back on this halsey album bc i feel like when you say anything negative someone comes up with “well she has cancer” which makes me think if you need that context to be accesed isnt that a mark against the album? But i guess if you’re a music reviewer you should know that context but does that even make a difference. idk i liked a couple songs off the album but i think she shot herself with her influence cosplay looks. i think unintentionally comes of nostalgia baity

Liz Huerta

Eating halal cart, new Kenya video, Tory Lanez rotting in prison
I think I like this little life â˜ș

Keith Primas

and also, to make an album is to draw from personal experiences. not all the time, but most of the time. making music is inherently ‘selfish’ and personable!! you can dig that inspiration and prose out of your past and your trauma, why would that not factor into an album?

risa kim

waitt is this color the final form of ur dye job?? it’s veryyy cute u make a fine brunette lol

risa kim

kenya i love this color!!

Amaya A

I love Meg so much.. she gets so much vitriol, unnecessary HATE from weirdos & it’s sad she has to pay any attention to them but yeah

Reyhan

Korli Bridges

halsey dealing w (potentially) leukemia, lupus, a rare t-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, and thus CONCERNED that she’s going to leave an orphan behind in this world
only for it be demoted as ‘main character syndrome’ see what happens when you’re not only a misogynist, but you’re stupid and don’t know what words fucking mean? both pitchfork and that bald bitch r going to hell.

risa kim

These braids are givine me LIFFFEEEE!!!đŸ˜« You hear me???😭

Lyghtfoot

My big Thanksgivings dinner about to be real stressful this year with all the shit that happened this year.

Eboni Haynes

Kenya what color blend are your braids ??

Dynasty Andrews

ari lennox has the perfect fanbase, personality, relatability etc to be managed by a good management team now that you mentioned it. ari is talented. i went to her own ASL tour and she put on an amazing, intimate show! people were throwing wigs and panties and staged and ari loved it. the people love her. her fans love her. which gives her the authentic potential to develop. if you ask me i think j cole jealous. what’s the point of having a label if you not going to do your fucking job like wtf

Tyy Li

Thank you Kenya exactly what I needed leaving the dentist

Mariah L.

i never could get the reason either why people hate meg so much! idk whether if it all ties to the tory lanez nonsense or what bc people just hate this woman for existing at this point. meg is pass the tory lanez situation cause that nigga is in jail so i think the real reason why people are mad is bc she got justice. so now they’re trying to tear her down by calling her all types of flops or what not. the barbz are spiraling cause meg ain’t paying no attention to them. the general public is spiraling on conspiracy’s with the whole roc nation bullshit. where is this energy for the chris brown’s and trey songz?? real abusers who people turn a blind cockeyed from

Tyy Li

NDA was the time for bloggers to sit down and eat their food, but noooo. Got gassed up by media illiterate people who think TSR is a credible source, now who’s paying them legal fees🙃?
