No Please Don’t Touch? How disgraceful.
 
If she toured multiple times a year I would see her every time. Really hope she announces a more substantial UK tour soon.

She’s really one of those artists that never misses for me and I’ve only realised that in the last year. I always loved Second and Side Tape, but Euphoric Sad Songs crept up on me throughout 2021, and is still revealing itself, several years on. To me I have absolutely no problem putting her songwriting skills on the same level as Mariah, she’s a true once in a generation talent, and I’m so glad she’s getting to make music on her own terms because it’s the best she’s ever made.
 
Ah, I was so elated for her when this popped up on Apple Music this morning. She deserves this, and there's no doubt it's going to be incredible.

I love the artwork. It's very striking, there's something very late 00s/early 10s *ahem* quirky pop girl about it.

I thought the exact same, then I realized it's giving Jay's Blueprint 3 cover nn. I assume it's an intentional reference

That setlist is kinda weird? They're bops but Tequila - Call On Me I thought she would want to separate herself away from because of the previous label drama.... but I bet she performs them live really well.

It made sense in the setting. She literally said ‘I hate Tequila’ dd
She was just going through chapters in her career - highs and lows. It was fascinating.
A lot of them were a verse and a chorus only.
