I was really excited, but this feels like a big letdown. I only really like "Getting Warmer" (for the verses), "Truth", and "Used to Love U." The rest are either bland or jarring. I really wanted to like this, sad.
It’s not particularly difficult to commiserate with anyone that’s gone through an evidently shambolic period in their lives. I imagine many turn or return to religion and that’s understandable. But it’s been rather… “unusual” hearing Gwen promote the healing powers of “god” and prayer in just about every press interview she’s done so far. She even has an article featured on Christianity Today. She’s not pushing it on anyone, retweeting Joel Osteen, or even stating what religious sect she belongs to, so no harm, no foul.
This isn’t a slight to anyone religious either. Just a mere observation that could be considered an odd irk after following her and the band for so many years. If she wins music awards, well, I can already predict how her thank you speeches will conclude.
I think I’m still having some confusion in terms of what the truth actually feels like. I think it's about falling in love with a big man child, finding god and thanking him a lot, making a subtle attempt to out ex-husbands, **** pics, and probably emojis or something ridiculous that only Gwen could comprehend.
I finally saw the light. Obsessed is the best song on the album
I'm obseSSED...~nananananana
I'm obseSSED...~nananananana
I'm obseSSED...~nananananana
I'm obseSSED...~nananananana
That's how I do. do. That's how I do.
This is Gwen's best album and she was already the second most awesome pop star to exist, I am dead and my spirit has transcended this plane and gone to a universe in which Gwen is one of the three omnipotent deities that rules over my existence (alongside Kylie and Britney)
Send Me A Picture could do really well as a single if all the selfie-obsessed people relate to it, which is basically everyone these days. Also sounds very laid back and summery.
I'd really love Truth and/or Rare as singles too. Then there's also Asking 4 It because Fetty. So many singles options.
