Listened to this album the minute it dropped just to review it

Listened to this album the minute it dropped just to review it.

Here's my very terse review.

What I expected: modern art pop with Lorde-esque vocals over SpaceGhostPurrp or BONES-style beats with a socially/politically conscious song or two (don't laugh).

What I got: second-hand Ultraviolence-era Lana.

Xanny and You Should See Me In a Crown were the only good songs I'd choose to listen to, because they were exactly what I was expecting from her. The rest were either boring as fuck (AKA filler) or trash. It's not even creative art pop, it's literally just pop for teen girls who think they're "different".

Ok

Do you think this board is your blogpost ?

Did not need another thread for this shit, thanks faggot

>signed to Interscope, a label notorious for planting
>”I was expecting art pop”
Of course.

It's kind of hard not to give into the hype surrounding this girl. Even if we didn't buy the "child prodigy" bullshit it's logical to assume she'd at least produce something of substance given all the money her label poured into her.

Well like it or not she's the biggest pop star in the world right now thanks to ingenious marketing tactics and social media.

Yeah but you’re part of the problem for talking about her.

She really isn’t, nice try tho

Not a fan of her but her album did sell 800k copies its first day thanks to streaming pre-saves.

>pre-saves
>”sold copies”
You don’t understand how streaming numbers are measured do you?

wish you were gay isn't bad desu.

Yeah but it's just a run-of-the-mill pop song.

Explain it then. I assumed streaming counts the same as standard albums no?

She should do more of it instead of the psuedo-gothic synth whatever she tries.

Why? I think her voice would suit the dark electronica stuff if she grew out of that whisper shit and learned to sing out or belt.

wish you were gay was the only song I'd say she was actually sort of singing, funnily enough. If she sticks with the dark electro I don't see her growing vocals.

Lana only sounds good when she’s going pop.

>If she sticks with the dark electro I don't see her growing vocals.
Why not?

Billie is cute!

She's literally so fucking ugly.

If you like drugged out looking chicks

Nah. Her face is asymmetrical, and she's not even ugly-in-an-interesting-way, just ugly.

Cause it easily enables asmr whisper singing.

Not necessarily.

Everyone’s face is asymmetrical. She is ugly though.

No.1 album in 70 COUNTRIES!!!!!

>planting works
Colour me shocked.

Her lips don’t fit on her face.

I liked all good girls go to hell.

Agreed on the lack of singing. She can, and has on some of the songs from first EP. Dissappointing she doesn't seem to want to anymore.

She’s just overrated as hell with the most blatantly fabricated success I’ve ever witnessed from a pop star in the past 15 years.

Nah she doesn’t have the range.

Citation desperately needed faggot

Anyone that can rec more albums like these? It's beautiful.

Wew lad

She just posted about it on IG.

No I mean real sources

Google it. She’s bound to go platinum in a few days given her record-breaking amount of pre-saves.

pls. I really enjoyed it.

>projected to sell 260k units in the US
Wonderful, she still hasn’t topped Ari.

>I’m pulling stuff out of my ass
We know kid

She beat the streaming record with almost a million per-saves. Of course she’s topping the album charts everywhere.

>of course
But you cannot show any proof of that

>Yea Forums seething at a young woman dropping a masterpiece and revealing them to have worse taste than 15 year old girls

my sides

>masterpiece
Nah. At its very best it’s a 7/10.

REC MORE LIKE THIS

Check out your brother Finneas' youtube channel. The music he writes under his own name is more feelsy folksy. Some good stuff in there.

Why did you have to make this thread? Why did you choose to listen to the album? STOP PARTICIPATING IN THIS SHIT.

Kate Bush -The Dreaming

*her brother's

Channel is just called finneas.

This, it’s the exact same guy too because I’ve seen him post this EXACT review at least like 3 times since yesterday. These threads make me angry and physically ill
Please for the love of god sage any billie thread yoo see, don’t give this shill discussion

DESU Finneas is the real talent. I doubt Billie can write anything on her own.

Thanks mate, I actually like it. Found a new genre to go in.

Fuck off, musiclet

She will eventually.

I know Kate but I wanted something a bit more dark. Just like Billie.

Why are you guys so angry about industry plants? Kek, nobody would listen to them if they were shit. If Billie is popular that means some people actually like her. You are just salty because nobody would look at you even if you were an industry plant.

I’m not even angry at billie, her music is run of the mill trash but that’s to be expected. I’m angry at the fuck who keeps posting her and samefagging his threads about her

Only good songs were the final four.

Due to mass marketing. She final product is bland. I don’t see it lasting.

That would be Ariana Grande

>Ariana Grande
Literally who?

she looks pretty niggardly

How many listeners does Billie have?

where do u find this list??

she looks like a retarded fish

The artist’s Spotify page

So almost as many as Ariana.

so there isn't like a ranking you just gotta find them or what, thanks btw

~19.5M fewer listeners isn’t really “almost”

Are you serious

>~
>“
Fuck off newfag zoomershit.

Billie officially has:
>no 1 hit with Bad Guy
>two songs in the Top 5
>12 songs in the Top 50
>16 songs in the Top 100

Bow down to your new queen Yea Forums.

This sampling killed me, how can anyone take this bitch seriously? This is clear pandering that adds nothing of value to the music

Aesthetic choice.

Yeah I’m going to need a source for this.

Google it.

Who are the other Interscope plants?

>Billie singing over a BONES beat

No asshat, source your statements

I saw it on IG.

>using an about sign and quotation marks makes you a newfag
seething retard be quiet

>What I expected: modern art pop with Lorde-esque vocals over SpaceGhostPurrp or BONES-style beats with a socially/politically conscious song or two (don't laugh).
wow

Yeah that’s reliable
Anything real?

>modern art pop with Lorde-esque vocals over SpaceGhostPurrp or BONES-style beats with a socially/politically conscious song or two (don't laugh).
you must've known about her for expecting this, also what makes you think a rich teenage white girl from LA would have the artistic capacity or the intelligence to create that

She hangs around SoundCloud rappers and has a lot of label money.

Google it asshole.

No asshat, you made the assertion, you back it up,

Wait until Tuesday when the charts are released. Our queen WILL deliver.

She's ironic weeb waifubait, and you should feel bad for falling for this shit.

Lana Del Rey for starters.

>Lorde-esque vocal
Nibba she can’t even sing as well as Lana.

Why are you flapping about charts one minute and then deferring till Tuesday the next when someone asks for backup
You just yap don’t you? Don’t even think about it, just yapping. Like a poodle. Yap yap yap

Her voice is very pleasant to listen to and she has an excellent timbre.

>masterpiece
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It's not illogical to assume she'd be doing something along those lines. She uses distorted bass in the first two tracks, for instance.

Spoiler: it's Spotify, not Billboard.

Exactly
It’s Spotify not billboard

Post the webm

>muh coffee
It's literally nothing.

But how does Spotify compare to actual position on Billboard? I don't know the streaming rules.

It doesn’t

Streaming is counted in sales though, right? That's why XXXTensioncord got so popular.

Album was decent. Not bad but not fantastic. It has its "moments" but nothing "breathtaking" or goosebumps-inducing. A strong 5/10 for me.

I found this
>Billboard 200 will count 1,250 streams as one album unit for paid subscription services. Free, ad-supported services will need 3,750 streams to equal one album unit.

I see.

800k streams = 400 album unit sales

i agree with you. she should definitely do more airy acoustic shit.

Yeah she doesn't have much of a vocal range to do much else musically. If she's going to do industrial or real trap music she'll have to learn to sing above a whisper.

Digits and this is AOTY 2019.

Nah.

god I've been dreading for this album to drop.
every single one of my friends think its god sent when its just surface-level edginess directly marketed toward teen girls.
its not bad.... its just kinda bland and easy to consume while still letting people feel artsy and edgy by listening to her

Thoughts? This is definitely the best song on the album.
youtube.com/watch?v=GbjwfQG_N_Y

Billie Eilish is to Ariana what Hot Topic is to Zara.

More like, 800k streams equals 600 albums sold.

She is, unfortunately. The numbers don't lie.

Strong 5 to light 6

Has Melon reviewed her yet?

Not yet

Don't think so but I'm predicting a score around that range, that's what I would give it anyway.

INDUNTHONY PLANTANO HERE

FEELING A LIGHT 5 OUT OF 10

TRANS-ITION!

>She uses distorted bass in the first two tracks, for instance.
Ronnyj was doing that since 2016 and possibly before. That’s nothing new

Yeah but for a little pop princess to use it is "innovative".

Her voice is deteriorating already.
youtube.com/watch?v=YL2HRdjDKnw

Just wait until she has to duet with Denzel on stage with those loud trap beats behind her.

>SpaceGhostPurrp or BONES-style beats
I wish these fellows were still making music.

She looks like she _____ _____ ____.

Oh fuck off.

It's not that Billie is a plant, it's that she denies being a plant and promotes an aesthetic which is supposed to be anti-establishment. She's a literal gentrifier.

most of the album sucks but 'bad guy' slaps

Most of it sounded like a Black Eyed Peas song. The ending was boss.

She is indeed. But we shall see how that beauty holds against the tide of the industry.

Z O O M E R

H O U N D S

L O V E

Yeah the first three tracks were the only decent ones. The rest were filler.

Billie has none of Lana’s talent.

bad guy slaps because her brother, the producer, is actually good
