I think Piggyback was a teaser of this direction, which kinda came out in K-12, but that album was still half written during the Crybsby era. also Recess fits with this sound to me! Yep I agree, Piggyback is very personal and all these songs seem to be more into her personal realm then Crybaby's thank u, next Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davian 44,859 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I really enjoyed this! Itâs not as good as K-12 imo, but itâs still a great EP! Test Me and The Bakery were my faves What you want Lady Gagađ„ What you want with Christinađ„ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helxig 39,448 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I just wanna throw this out there: Some of Melanie's favourite artists are Tierra Whack and Fiona Apple and I can definitely hear their influence on her recent stuff! Also visually she's inspired by Alice In Wonderland and Tim Burton which makes a lot of sense too! I'll be myself until they fƫcking close the coffin.

Rudz Xinc 7,929 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Numbers is her worst song ever, it annoyed the **** out of me, I couldn't even finish it. I'm so disappointed by this EP. I only like The Bakery, Notebook, and Field Trip. Look at those clowns Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
antran123 77 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 i don't know how i feel with this EP. Maybe i'll make a revisit of this EP soon haha. i don't like "Brain & Heart". My favorites are "Test Me" - "Numbers" and "The Bakery" I think "Fire Drill" fit good as the intro of the EP. On first listen i'll give it a 6/10.

Chic 20,830 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I've loved both of Melanie Martinez's albums, all of her EP's, her extra releases, her unreleased demos and I even saw her in concert last year. It was phenomenal. But this EP is unlistenable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-re-relistening, Brain & Heart defs has a strong Piggyback vibe to it. I wonder if Piggyback could have been put on this project if the allegations never happened and that she rush released it at the time. Or she was making these songs at the same time, and emulated that similar vibe into Piggyback thank u, next Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She started writing K-12 way back in 2015-2016 right after Crybaby and her sound has been evolving since. Thatâs why K-12 is kinda a blend between her old sound and new sound. But she wrote Piggyback in early 2018 when she was already using her new sound. I remember at the time thinking âokay so Piggyback has a very different sound to Crybaby, but she just wrote it now, so this must be a preview of her new directionâ I'll be myself until they fĆ«cking close the coffin.

PawsUpJago 1,845 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Oh wow, the taste in here đŹ It's pretty muchđ„đ„đ„ Brain and Heart is so gorgeous and the J-Lo sample is perfect, her instrumentation style really could fit with this more late 90s/ early 2000s R&B going forward, I'd like to see it. But what's knew with this crowd, always wanting and expecting regressive rehashes or carbon copies of artists early works. Not shocked đ€ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not shocked đ€ Well she has cited Brandy as a huge influence for her in the past! She was obsessed with her growing up and also listened to a lot of R&B and rap with her father. I'll be myself until they fĆ«cking close the coffin.

Itâs very short though, definitely more of an extension of the K-12 era, as the title sorta suggests. Which is fine. I love this womanâs art so much.
