empathogen review

I know no one is looking for my opinions on this new Willow album, but I love that she is experimenting and genre-bending! Her vocal maturity is really shining through, and I enjoyed how emotional this album was.

I felt like I was drinking a fizzy fruit punch in a sunroom while painting, 8.9/10

WILLOW - run!

During her interview with Rolling Stone, Willow stated, "I wanted [this song] to feel like you're on the verge of a panic attack."

Mission accomplished, Ms. Smith. Distorted, breathy vocal display to portray racing thoughts, uneasiness, and skipping breaths with a production to match. Black and white visuals to depict inner turmoil and entrapment before progressing in color to evoke freedom. This young lady is ridiculous.

A pen game, can sing her ass off, a visionary, and a multi-instrumentalist? I don't wanna see her name in none of those damn nepotism convos. Pure talent.

"Run!" is featured on her newly released sixth album, empathogen. Solid project. But my only gripe is that half of the songs are too short. Idk who started this trend of condensed track duration. This is not the days of Motown patterning the song structure of gospel music because that's certainly isn't even the execution. I want full songs. Nonetheless, Willow just keeps getting better and better musically and I'm happy that this is her outlet.

In the silence I can hear inside my mind In the silence I can't wear my disguise In the silence I don't know what I'll find Don't really wanna feel the freedom Cause the parts of me I can't see, they Wanna come out and fuel the fire, I don't wonder why

Surprise, the secret to happiness isn't actually that complicated. Happiness based on people and things and accomplishments is a fragile happiness. The only robust form of happiness comes from a shift in perspective of appreciating the way things are and not worrying about more than you have to and you're almost certainly worrying about way more than you have to. 

The difficult bit is how do you get there from where you currently are.

I think there's probably a lot of different ways to get to get there, and there are whole books and institutions dedicated to providing a path (looking at you Buddhism), and different things work better or worse for different people and if there is a secret to getting there faster, I don't know it. Empathogens and self-reflection seems like an option not available for most of human history so there may be some low-hanging fruit there.

But I'm pretty sure a robustly happy person would stress waaay less than you do about the future. They'd worry less about what other people thought about them. They wouldn't spend mental energy holding grudges. They'd worry less about policing their own thoughts. If they had expectations they wouldn't worry about them coming to pass or not. They wouldn't stress about maximal efficiency. They wouldn't stress about the past of all things, something that can't be changed. And goodness knows they wouldn't judge themselves. They'd appreciate people for who they were not who they could be, and if they didn't fit with someone they'd cut them out of their life. They'd cry and laugh and get angry or afraid in response to immediate stimuli but they wouldn't worry about crying, they wouldn't be ashamed of it, they would neither push it away and repress it or cling to it past its time. And once the stimuli was passed they'd return to their happy, accepting, equilibrium. And maybe they'd know that, so having emotions in the moment wouldn't be so scary. The link between emotion and reality would be less, if something bad happened they would be sad but not despair. 

I don't know how to get there from here, but I have some ideas. Good luck everyone, I appreciate you and I hope all your ideas pan out <3
