Jezang, no one cares

Yes, I dropped out because my mother is having a health crisis and I don't have time to focus on the competition. So glad you took the time out of your day to be shady.

Omg I didn't mean it like that, I literally didn't know. Sorry

I'm always worried that I may not be behaving in the right way to the judges when their reviews come tbh. I often reply to them to try to clear things up or explain myself but idk if this comes across as disrespectful. But then I just decide "whatever" and feel relieved in the fact that it'll just be a forgotten post amongst 1000's in no time.

Oh I didn't know. Sorry to hear that, hope your mom gets better.

Looks like I came back at a weird time.



My :
The judges may not always be able to be SUPER helpful in a 2-3 sentence critique, but as TT said, we are reading a LOT of entries per week, so I try to give the most direct feedback I can, and if that is more 'pointing out flaws,' it's because I think that is what is going to help you grow. Our styles might not always mesh, but I will always give my honest feedback and point out the things I think need the most work. If I say your language is familiar or your rhymes are forced, then the next time you write a song, ask yourself: "Have I heard this phrasing before?" or when you're trying to rhyme something and realize you're looking through a rhyming dictionary for every rhyme instead of writing what comes naturally, rethink the rhyme. I've been planning on posting general comments for everyone for a while but have been so busy with school. I'll likely get to do that soon though.

Anyway, once we're down to fewer contestants, I will give thorough (and more balanced) feedback.

Finally, your attitudes as contestants inevitably factor into our opinions of you in general. I don't think I've let any biases impact my actual scoring thus far (i.e. Euphoria being in my top 3 the past couple weeks), but remember that if you come to me respectfully asking for feedback, I will give it to you. Several of you know this from PM conversations. But if you don't act like you care about the feedback or take it seriously, I won't want to spend my time carefully critiquing you when I just know you're going to be dismissive anyway.

Overall, I think some contestants can show a bit more gratitude for the amount of time the judges put into reading your songs, writing comments, etc., esp. TT, who also does the formatting, organizing, etc.

Originally posted by lovesong The inflated egos of some members in here are definitely too much. I've never had to use the ignore feature but I've already used it on two people in here. I'm sure its just the pressure/nature of the competition though.

Originally posted by Truth Teller This comment is exactly what I'm talking about You can say what you want about me and at this point, I don't think much of you, so it doesn't bother me. But in season 6, I didn't talk back ONCE to any of you. I didn't talk back when I was dragged, I didn't talk back when I was praised, I didn't talk back when I felt my songs were underrated, I NEVER tried it. The difference between you and I is that, as a contestant, I had RESPECT to the judges and the game. If I had said, done or insinuated 10% of the things you said, did and insinuated throughout this season, I would have been dragged, called a troublemaker and be labelled Citrus / Kesha Rose 2.0 in a heartbeat. The reason why you get away with it is exactly because I'm NOT fuming, although I'm sure you'd feel more important if I did. When it comes to the all caps, contestants don't WARN hosts. You DON'T GET IT. If Matty wanted to warn me, he could and I would take it. As for "fuming", I was probably the first or second person to welcome you back from banland on your wall, so I was MORE than fine with you. And even now, despite you being disrespectful, annoying and shady in a way I never was when you were hosting, I preferred to take the high road and not adress you rather than pick stupid fights with you. That's not fuming, that's mature.

I actually don't hate Bonnie (she's cute and I loved her first album), it's just fun when the tables are turned. Tbh I hate everyone
