The Martian was better than expected but the book is way better (usually the case).

No-one knows or cares about Tenashe. She's far too boring to break out. Obvs the gp loves boring but there still needs to be a usable gimmick for debut artists.

The fact that her collab with Chris "Airplay" Brown bombed means we won't be seeing Tinashe for a little while, not unless All My Friends smashes (hopefully).

All My Friends is bombing here even though radios are spamming it, it'll be a moderate hit at best
The only way Tinashe has a (slight) chance of making it is if she features on Drake, Chris Brown, and The Weeknd singles before pushing her own material. They all have to be features only too, she can't be the lead otherwise nobody will care about the song like Player

Rihanna had better not release ANTi during Jolie's Lips time in Ban Land.

And the Navy felt this was entirely unfair and a clear-cut case of racism, so they complained, and then SYG got shut down for a couple hours, and when it rih-opened, the rules were changed that racist jokes such as those were no longer allowed.
And ever since then, the rules have become more and more strict, but the other changes stem from other incidents, though it all started with that one.

I remember it was much more brutal, thus, more entertaining.
There was also NHB for members to vent at each other. Why did that one get closed?
All these rules stifle one's creativity.

The Navy being trash. What's new?
Omg, though, I'd always wondered -- and have just now come to understand -- what that Beyoncé nickname represented.

I believe they said because they were starting to do ads, the sponsors who gave us the ads wanted a more family-friendly website, so things like NHB & Dirty Talk were closed, SYG became more moderated, the swear word censor came up, and a bunch of rules were changed.
It'll never go back to how it was, unfortunately.

That just furthered the change in SYG tbh. Like I said, it started with the Navy incident. SYG was absolutely brutal before that but the one day the Hive took "ape" back, it all ended.

Same, I wondered how one was to pronounce it - thought it would sound something like 'Be-yons-uh-pay'
