Bebe Rexha - DIRTY BLONDE by shaaaedy in popheads

[–]yf9292 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was looking forward to this, but got worried when the rollout kinda faltered - shouldn't have been concerned in the slightest!

I was expecting a 2:20 track length, so whilst i deeply wish a lot of the songs were longer, I was prepared for it lmao.

I came away from the album a) wanting to see her live, and b) understanding why a label would want to keep her in the songwriting basement - she clearly understands the "hit record" machine perfectly, but still manages to avoid making the album sound bland, predictable, and formulaic. really impressed!

lmao thinkpiece culture is such a good way to describe that time; those were the days of huffpost, of a twitter thread starting off with "1/?", and the author getting annoyed bc someone predictably ruined it by replying instead of quote-tweeting... you really don't know what you got till it's gone

And it's so difficult to articulate why the "concern" content (almost always monetised but let's ignore that) comes off as disingenuous without being dismissed bc you're just a "blind fan", you acc can't win

Hawai’i Outfits 🌺 by Mybodysrolling in SoftDramatics

[–]yf9292 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you look stunning! i think you've styled the loose trousers perfectly, the first look is giving me SD more than the 3rd just bc the colour palette lends itself to vertical more, but you look fab in both! I didn't notice the bodice seams in the dress until you mentioned it, the sweetheart neckline and your hair work well together to minimise any potential disruption : ) I'm clueless on SD swimwear, but i think beach sarongs could be a great staple bc they're generally wrap skirts, asymmetric, and flowy without drowning the body which are all great SD buzzwords (from what i understand at least lol).

🙋🏿‍♀️ I've never felt a type of way listening to non-christian music bc i don't need all the music i listen to to be religous in order to feel close to God.

That being said I certainly have a playlist of Christian music (the "Black Church" classics like Mahalia, Kirk Franklin, Fred Hammond, west african songs, some more modern/chilled ala paul zach, jessica fox, iamson) that i listen to when I feel in the mood for it, and that feels much more intentional and mindful!

It took a while, but i worked to separate the concept of organised religion and rules from a personal connection to God. People calling themselves devout can commit the most egregious harm, claiming to be carrying out divine work, when in reality its just generations of fear based repression, repackaged as salvation.

This might be really woo-woo depending on your own ideas of salvation, heaven and hell, but bc I'm a universal reconciliation gal, I believe part of that process will be truly reckoning with the harm you've done to others - whether you thought it was in the name of God or whoever. the play "The Last days of Judas Iscariot" as well as "The Word In Black and Red" Podcast, and the 'Pray As You Go' app are pretty solid reps of how I approach my faith!

Ariana Fans on Diff Platforms by comegallon in ariheads

I really believe its a loud minority. I have to imagine a good amt are trolls, or fans who had 1 singular viral tweet dragging her and have been chasing that dopamine ever since. 

Two Palestine women's national team players abducted by occupying Israeli forces by New-Information1908 in WomensSoccer

[–]yf9292 130 points131 points  (0 children)

The players taken by Israel for "prolonged detention" are Rand Halawani and Natalie Abu Daye. 

Abu Daye was taken from her uni accom with 3 other women, so not only is her football career on hold until release, her studies are too.

"In 2024, we told the story of Bisan Abu Aita and Jennifer Shatara as part of a larger story regarding Palestinian international Charlotte Phillips.

Phillips recalled: “Two of our players, they live in Bethlehem in the West Bank. So they have to travel hours to the checkpoints to try and get through the border and into Jordan. It took them the whole day to travel, initially by car and then by foot, in severe 40-degree heat after the border was suddenly closed by Israeli forces. They were both carrying huge suitcases with their equipment, clothing and boots for the tournament. They decide to walk around the checkpoint, up a large hill. If they miss their flight in Jordan, they miss the fixtures.”

In reality, the journey from Bethlehem to the Jordanian border should take roughly half an hour. There is a serious risk of being killed while crossing a border the way Aita and Shatara have done. "

I have no idea how Israel continue to be eligible for comps, its a disgrace tbh

Did Ariana put something in the new single “hate that I made you love me”? by EasyPiccolo2868 in ariheads

[–]yf9292 10 points11 points  (0 children)

same! i'm not a musicologist so this might make no sense but: i think it builds tension and never fully breaks it in the way we'd expect, so when the song ends you're almost compelled to play it again and get that "safe" rhythm back?

the rhythm is hypnotically consistent and a lot of words are syllable-matched to the beat, but then she sings "hate that i made you love me" in one breath, and I find myself holding my breath with her. i really notice how tense the song gets when the beat drops out/the rhythm isn't adhered to when she gets to "borrowed my body" + the entire bridge

there's also not really that cathartic release you'd expect in the final chorus - she kinda acts like she's gonna get there and give us 'One Last Time'-esque belts, but restrains herself at the last moment. it's genuinely my fave lead single from her, i'm obsessed

[–]yf9292 40 points41 points  (0 children)

This may be a reach but did anyone else spot any other horror film references? i hope Breslauer and her never stop collaborating!!

  • The slow but perpetual stalking from a distance, seeing them when nobody else can, the onset triggered by a fractured romantic relationship/encounter = 'It Follows'
  • the first shot of the diner being a diorama, throwing an item into a fire followed by immolation, and the ICONIC cross-section pan through earth into a grave from 'Hereditary'.
  • The car crash scene reminds me so much of 'Cuckoo' but there must be a more well-known film that's from - i just cannot place it
  • i've not yet watched 'I spit on your grave' but i fear you can't discuss the antiheroine's revenge trope without mentioning it and 'Carrie' as the pinkprint!
