Tate McRae - So Close To What

[minorkey]

Maybe she wants to avoid The Substance nachos allegations?

 

[collxtion]

On slide two of the tracklist reveal, you can see a physical billboard behind her with the crushed star image, and now her most recent post is OF that image saying "this friday," so... it doesn't feel like a maybe at this point. I assume we'll see the art update on Friday when the album drops.

According to the Oscars thread nobody has seen it so her fans wouldn't even get the reference!

 

[RainOnFire]

This seems.. particularly messy ddd. It looks like a draft tracklist vs final, not physical vs streaming.

I know she’ll be on Las Cultch next week but has anything else been announced? Is she gonna perform these songs anywhere besides that parking lot that I assume won’t be televised/streamed?

It feels really quiet right now for an album out in days.

The Kia Forum parking lot show will be streamed live on TikTok. She has an album signing in New York on the 23rd, so I’m assuming she’ll do some televised performances (Fallon/GMA?) next week. If not, Little McManagers will have several notes.

 

[Larsen]

I'm sure there will be a deluxe within a month that has that cover.

Judging by the rate she's been releasing albums, I'm sure there will actually be a new one.

 

[Laurence]

They made this for you @RJF, enjoy

 

[Trinu 3.0]

The way I genuinely have no idea what this is even supposed to mean, because that album is such a hodge-podge of genres and sounds this song could pretty much be anything ddd

Debut era Rina was brilliant. Careful, bicha.

Debut era Rina was brilliant. Careful, bicha.

That wasn't even a criticism analfabeta, just saying Rina's debut album is extremely sonically varied, which is objectively true, so saying something sounds like it doesn't really tell you anything.

That said I'm sure nothing on So Close To What will be nearly as bad as Ch*s*n F*m*ly

 

[Suburbia]

If her fandom really called the tater tots because I don't think I've ever heard anything other than that term used. But surely she didn't name her fandom that

It originated in this very thread and made its way to social media

Which sends me because she probably saw us calling her Tate McRib for 2 months too

 

[Michael17]

I still commend Ms. McRib for basically putting crack in Sports Car. I haven't caught on to her for the longest time, and then this came out of nowhere and absolutely blew me away. Can't stop listening. Even the porn video is iconic.

Video coming Friday, rumored to be for Revolving Door.

 

[RMK]

It’s definitely Revolving Door

The walk of fame photo is the vinyl inner sleeve, worms for brains!!

 

[popzone]

Musical guest on SNL on March 1st.

 

[Vasilios]

SNL said Vas rights

 

[mindtrappa]

The walk of fame photo is the vinyl inner sleeve, worms for brains!!

Convinced they switched the images and that the current cover was the inner sleeve initally dd. But what a legitimately strange choice.

 

[GimmeWork]

Ok, Revolving Door! Definitely thought Dear God or Signs would get the "(radio friendly) songs" push at release, so this is a pleasant surprise as it's the most "McRae of Light" sounding, but I love it and can't wait.

 

[Babyface]

Teasing a Seattle tour date. Considering I was looking at buying resale tickets for Vancouver this is a huge slay.
