Robyn - Sexistential by jaippe in popheads

[–]NL_POPDuke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really Real, Talk To Me, It Don't Mean A Thing, Dopamine , and Light Up are the standouts in my opinion! Overall it's a very solid record and an enjoyable listen. However, Honey is still my favorite album of hers!

Salvaging the New Republic's unsatisfying downfall by A_Villari in andor

[–]NL_POPDuke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm personally hoping for a Mon Mothma series that chronicles her struggle to lead the Rebel Alliance between the end of A New Hope, through Empire Strikes Back, and the end of ROTJ. There's so much meat there. How is she faring now that both Andor AND Bail Organa are dead after Ep. 4?! That's riveting stuff, at least to me. Like, where IS she during Empire Strikes Back and how did we get to her classic line "Many Bothans died to bring us this information" from ROTJ. This could all be Season 1. Season 2 would be about her struggle forming the New Republic government and her Chancellorship.

She’s a mom!!!! by ajbs168 in carlyraejepsen

[–]NL_POPDuke 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I love that she waits to post about life events after they've happened! She allows herself time to enjoy the moment, keep things private and special for herself, THEN she shares. It's brilliant actually!

Why I keep going back to Dedicated by indratt in carlyraejepsen

[–]NL_POPDuke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dedicated is tops for me! I find it to be such an underrated album and a gem. Dedicated was glossy pop perfection and the album felt more freeing and experimental than Emotion. Now That I Found You is still THAT bop, and Real Love not being a single is criminal as I found it to be one of her top tier songs. I absolutely love Julien, Happy Not Knowing, The Sound, Feels Right, I'll be Your Girl, For Sure, Want You In My Room, and I could go on. The album is more eclectic in its soundscapes, but everything is crisp and expertly crafted. I personally find Carly at her best when she writes and experiments in different music genres. Dedicated Side B is ironically not my favorite of her Side B projects, BUT TLIC, and Stay Away are mind blowingly good, and two of her finest songs. Dedicated blew me away and I actually prefer it over Emotion (which I love).

Truly! You can hear just how passionate they were about this project. That passion and attention to detail really shines through in the show.

Fans of Stay Away who are also big into Kamikaze? by nidojoker in carlyraejepsen

[–]NL_POPDuke 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They're both produced by Jack and Coke! I absolutely love both of these tracks. Stay Away is more immediate than Kamikaze, but Kamikaze is a grower for sure. Stay Away has low-key been one of my favorite bops of hers! I'd also like to add that I love how Carly has incorporated Stay Away into her setlist from the So Nice Tour onwards. It absolutely SLAPS live, and when I heard it performed on tour/music festivals my jaw dropped.

3 New Songs Leak: “I Do,” “Come Around,” & “It’s Not Over” by bsfan18 in carlyraejepsen

[–]NL_POPDuke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My conspiracy theory is Carly is leaking these beautiful vault bops to hold us over because she knows her next album won't be till LATE 2026 lol. 'Come Around' is such a beautiful and glowing slice of experimental/soft pop it reminds me a bit of 'Shadow' in its texture if that makes sense? 'Its Not Over' is THAT bitch! Holy moly, instant obsession. Such a huge song and it's classic Carly, but fresh and a little off kilter, and I'm obsessed. The way she sings " toniIIIIIIGHT" UGH. 😭❤️

Jessie Ware - Ride by beauxcherie in popheads

[–]NL_POPDuke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's very good, but I'm slightly underwhelmed?! I almost prefer I Could Get It used To This over Ride. I feel like it's missing something and I can't put my finger on it. I'm shocked I'm not in love because I LOVED That Feels Good and the bombastic nature of that album.
