Ants From Up There 187 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 This debacle revealing some truths about Chromatica is one of the best outcomes I could have hoped for For some reason, it seems to have been normalized on other pop forums that Chromatica and Stupid Love were critically panned, which is absolutely not true. It wasn't necessarily met with abject raves à la Brat, but critics were overall warm towards the era and it made several year-end lists. And despite the recurrent streams being kind of tragic, I think it was more a case of the sound of the album not completely clicking with the general public in the moment and being ultimately forgotten as opposed to an atomic bomb (like 143, likely lol) that drew active derision from anyone outside of stan spaces. I have my minor quibbles with the album, and I think the production could have been a lot punchier and amped up to sell the 90's Eurohouse vibe, but it's a solid album that showed a lot of songwriting growth. I think it sets up LG7 quite well to be a more mature expansion of the electro-rock sound that BTW flirted with, and I hope the era continues to be reevaluated in the future. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

salty like sodium 1,035 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 honestly the choice to imitate stupid love was, ironically, stupid. katy perry definitely knows the song. releasing a clone of a (more talented) competitor's past lead single that was released 4 years ago and arguably wasn't a huge success (compared to Gaga's previous bops) is either insanely brazen or completely dumb.
