POPLOVER 146 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I'm kinda amazed by alien superstar, it's so strange at the start but then it "opens up" and it'a pure pop, a video would deliver. btw I'm pretty sure it will be a visual album because the way every song start gives a "whole album sound-video experience" vibes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's so much potential here for visual slayage. fka butthole Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want videos that individually look stunning! let's hope she went for that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edonis 28,950 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Internally debating if I want to hear it early or wait until Friday to listen. I’ve heard some really interesting things about this record and I don’t know if I’m ready to be ruined by the hits Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of them have had less than 6 videos since her solo debut, which had 4, and her last 2 releases had videos for the entire album. fka butthole Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the "usual R&B", I feel like only 3-4 songs had that vibe. Everything else was much more intense/gay (for lack of a better word). This is such an unabashedly queer black album... It sounds like stuff MNEK would do, and I fücking love it. The visuals + British Vogue interview strongly made it seem that way. Then again I'd have to listen to it again, but this just wasn't the massive sonic 180 I was anticipating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took it as her modernizing the sound but taking inspiration from Studio 54 because it was the pinnacle of disco, dance, and celebrity. Unification. This album takes so much more inspiration from Ballroom culture, classic r&b, and Hyperpop than traditional disco. fka butthole Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She probably talked **** about Beyoncé at some point in her career, if one cared to do a little digging I also enjoyed hearing her on this record.
