It's her best yet. Enjoy

finished my second full listen

haven’t felt this way about a record on first listens since blonde

u in for greatness

Trash.

Shut up b****

Ok not trash, just mid.

What is mid about it?

hilarious seeing the shambles in that p4k review thread

hope that some people break out of their musical comfort zones and dig this tho

Off of first listen. My reaction was like: “meh”. I f***ed with a few tracks but I didn’t like most of the hooks/refrains/melodies

Give it a week. It will grow on you.

I honestly don't care lmao and I doubt Fiona does. She doesn't make music for the critics.

I might

Someone in there called this album critic bait as if Fiona "this world is bullshit" Apple really gives a s*** what anyone thinks

Any album that’s this level gets tagged critic bait. Tell your favorite artist to step their Games up.

Earlier this week I saw she was dropping and questioned myself, "Damn did I really sleep on her last release?" Nah it's really been 8 f***ing years since her last album. And she used that time to craft a masterpiece.

Great first listen, finished about 20 minutes ago. Soaking it in. Gonna take some time to gather all my thoughts on this.

Need covid to blow over so I can catch her on tour

First time listening to some music like this. Isolation got me bored

I can see the appeal, might grow on me

You think it's nuts to wish writers wouldn't put gigantic assertions like "Music has never sounded like this before" in the lead of review that doesn't contain anything that comes close justifying it, on a website that has "the most trusted voice in music" on their masthead?

People swear immediately going against critical darling albums makes them special, instead of trying to understand or appreciate it before turning it off. Why would you turn yourself off to great music? Makes no sense

The user in there foaming at the mouth trying to make it about race

Actively feel bad for people who don’t get this or want to. Thank god my dumbass 12-13 year old self downloaded things like fiona apple back then and had me exposed to those type of albums before I could really appreciate or understand them.

All part of the growing anti-intellectualism movement going on in America right now. People are just so willing to put their heads in the sand nowadays.

My first time listening to her was 2018 at 28 years old. And I’m a hip hop head. The s*** just too good to deny.

Well that’s cus you have great taste and an open mind bro
