JADE - THAT'S SHOWBIZ BABY! (Sep 12)

[PopCrushed]

The production is crazy! She sounds fantastic!

 

[whippy.]

I was NOT expecting that to be the first verse!

 

[enhanced CD]

The way it slinks into a French house moment at the end...omg

I still think that FUFN is even more mass appealing and pop at it’s very best, but this sits much more cohesive among the other two releases so far. The album is already a 11/10, no way it’s not going to be one of, if not the AOTY 2025.

Oh, this has big Prince protégé energy with a touch of Chic and Kavinsky.

I agree, it’s much more Prince than Jessie Ware in my opinion.

 

[jvckkk]

Yeah she nailed this, it’s easily the most pop leaning of her tracks to date but still has that unconventional structure that makes what she’s doing so interesting.

 

[Subspace]

I wouldn't be surprised if Fantasy was one of the tracks she 'went back and made weirder' after Angel Of My Dreams had such positive reception.

 

[Joe.]

If it’s ready this week, it should be released this week without question… I assume if it’s only out next week it’ll be because they had no time to edit it seeing as it filmed until October 9th.

Yeah the video helped Angel so, so much. Even though YouTube isn’t the force it used to be I think having music videos ready to go on release day is way more important than people realise. Just for clips that circulate on social media rather than the views on YouTube themselves.

I've refrained from posting over the last couple of weeks as I was thoroughly ashamed of myself for not enjoying Midnight Cowboy, but this is exquisite.

Some ad-libs peppered throughout the track following the same rhythm of "it can be loopy, it can be kinky..." would have made it even better for me, as that has been stuck in my head since she started teasing the snippets and I found myself singing it at random times throughout the song.

Another solid 11/10 effort from Jade! I can't wait to see the visuals!

 

[TheOnlyOne]

I was in the same boat regarding Midnight Cowboy but Fantasy helped me sail away indeed!

Still think Angel is the strongest of the releases thus far, but Fantasy is a more than worthy follow-up.

 

[Joe.]

This is amazing but I fear it may be a little too good for the masses. And a bit too much taste will be required for it to be a hit in the same was as Angel of My Dreams. I hope I’m wrong but it’s giving Run Away With Me.

I honestly can’t get my mind to figure out what FUFN is so please don’t do this.

That’s the actual title of the song dd. It stands for Fuck U For Now

SCREAM jokes on me.

Spoiler

Carry on.

 

[Drew]

Hmm. I suspect it'll grow on me, but my first impression is that there's no real hook and the track is too loud in the mix.

 

[Felp]

I’m under the impression this isn’t the final mix… It’s the same one I heard two weeks ago and the Instagram snippets sounded much cleaner.

 

[estfer]

Final mix or not, I am floored. No words. She's my #1. That's it.

 

[Mvnl]

The whole thing is actually quite early Solveig/Modjo/Supermen Lovers.
I approve.

(This one needs an extended mix)

 

[clowezra]

This is another corker for sure, everything we’ve heard from this era has been a proper 10/10. This album is going to be a game changer.
