I just read most of taylor’s album prologues, she is a literacy genius and some people who listen to her albums and immediately link each song to a boyfriend of hers, creates a fake narrative about her, or makes jokes about her songs ect, doesn’t know the full story behind them and how much they mean to taylor and what the album truely represents, and who it’s aimed at in terms of supporting others.

For instance, reputation isn’t fully about kanye or drama taylor has had, it’s about only ‘knowing the version of someone they have chosen to show you until you meet someone who will still choose you even when they see all the sides of the story, all of the kaleidoscope that is you’ I think this shows that when you’ve found the right person they will love you for who you are and focus more on yourself than rumours others might of made up about you.

or in the masterpiece, album of the year worthy album Midnights ; the most self-reflective album she has released, diving into her insecurities, guilt, shame, and fantasies which would be the kind of things would keep one up late at night thinking about. I think she created this album to express her feelings about certain subjects and made it so people can also relate to it. For example in Anti-Hero she tells the listener that she guided throughout all the things she hates about herself but it’s all the aspects of the things you dislike and like about yourself that you have to come to terms with if your going to be your person. This album highlights the fact that even though you might have people to talk to, you would rather deal with your problems by yourself and get carried away with emotions easily. Personally, i think this album makes me feel heard by people around me and made me realise you don’t have to suffer by myself and others are there to support you and also that i’m not the only one that’s going through what i’m going through.

All of Taylor’s album has a special meaning to it and i would suggest diving deeper into the core concept of them by reading the prologue or the lyrics carefully .

PS if you want to improve your grades in english i would recommend in reading the prologues because they’re a descriptive masterpiece. :))))) 🙃

This is a poll inspired by Jeff's last livestream because I was there chatting (no, this is not me coming back as a Jeff Blim Chat blog, who? Never heard of that blog before) and having fun till 5 am! (Don't shame me, I was working late till 2 am, saw he was livestreaming, made a loud sigh, and joined in. HE REELED ME BACK IN!!) How I arranged the songs in the poll is also my suggestion on how he should arrange his track list. RIP and in remembrance of Bottle Service. The song he used to call as his best pop song, alas, never got to develop it to a full song, only for him to hear it again and call it cringe. However, I am excited for the If I Loved You Party Mix. PLEASE REBLOG THE POLL SO THIS CAN HAVE MORE VOTES SO I DONT HAVE TO POST THIS TO OTHER BLOGS THANK YEWW P.S. Dirty Girl is a good song. Just because it's sexy, it doesn't deserve to be called a guilty pleasure or "ur afraid to admit it you love it." As long as you're 16 above, don't be shy you like that song. Only kids would think the song is gross lol.

album review: Wachito Rico -- boy pablo

ALBUM RATING: 7.5/10

initial thoughts

i got some motivation to do another album review again HAHAHSH thanks @dumdum0515 for this rec! i haven't listened to a lot of boy pablo's discography (the few songs i listened to were just okay), so i'm not too sure if i'll like this, but i'm hopeful :)

tracklist

in depth review under the cut:

track 1: ​i hope she loves me back

Okay woah I immediately liked the synth in the beginning! Lyrics are just okay to me, but the whole track is definitely a vibe + his voice fits that vibe, and I generally love the instrumentals.

8/10, i would relisten for the amazing synth

track 2: hey girl

This is groovy! The track starts off strong and immediately with the hook, that is repeated throughout, which makes it quite catchy. I like how it swells at the chorus, and the bridge is really cool too. It reminds me of The Beginning by Magdalena Bay, just slightly

8/10 too, any song that can be compared to The Beginning is amazing in my books

track 3: leave me alone!

THE BUILD UP BEFORE THE FIRST CHORUS?? it was unexpected and it works SO WELL with the chorus! plus that outro after that?? omg. I also love the bridge, it's a vibee. I like the drums in this song, and generally like the melody more than the previous two, so:

9.5/10! it was an immediate add to playlist

track 4: honey

The lyrics on this track are quite pretty and poetic, this is quite nice and the repeated notes in the chorus remind me of 'if i let u in' by Shye.

6/10, a very decent track! (I just liked it less than the previous 3)

track 5: rest up

Hmm, this track is okay! The hook is pretty good, and I just realised boy pablo's voice sounds kinda similar to Rex Orange County LOL.

also 6/10!

track 6: te vas // don't go

A cute and quite an aesthetic song! The lyrics feel like they can be quoted, and the bridge sounds like it would fit the ending of an episode in a tv series, when there's a resolution (something like Space Song in Wednesday)

6/10 too, still a decent track!

track 7: aleluya

Aww a sweet interlude! I like the vibes, and it extends from te vas//don't go quite well!

6/10

track 8: come home

Strong beginning again! It cools off into a more chill, slower pace which fits the home-y and welcoming vibes that the lyrics are trying to convey. Lyrics and melody/rhythm are integrated really well in this :)

7/10

track 9: mustache

This is okay to me! I like the general hook and the back part, the instrumentals after the lyrics

6/10

track 10: vamos a la playa

It's speeding up the pace for the next track, and OH THE TRANSITION?? Albums get bonus points to me if they have great transitions, so it looks like this album is going to qualify

track 11: wachito rico

OHH title track time. I immediately liked this! Instrumentals and melody, high scores across the board, plus a cool bridge?!!

9/10

track 12: nowadays

A quieter, acoustic track! Love the vibes and it sets the mood for the last 2 tracks from this album. Really quotable lyrics too, and the repeated lyrics work well in this track

7/10

track 13: i <3 u

I love this soft track, it ends the album well, especially the slower cool down from the bridge onwards. How the instrumentals briefly pause,, i love that type of syncopation so much!

8/10

best lyrics --  te vas // don't go

You gave your eyes to somebody else // What am I supposed to do?

best melody/production -- leave me alone

I love this song so much!! With the creative use of build ups and quite a unique mix, it is memorable and reminds me of my favourite synth-pop tracks (although it's not exactly synth-pop). Definitely my favourite from this album

my final rankings 

leave me alone!

wachito rico

hey girl

​i hope she loves me back

i <3 u

come home

nowadays

rest up, honey

te vas // don't go, mustache

aleluya, vamos a la playa

Overall, this album is very cohesive and I appreciate the 3 transition tracks! This was better than I expected and I'll definitely be listening to leave me alone! for a bit, and I'm sure the slower songs will grow on me with another listen.

Reputation is just *chef’s kiss*

Taylor is a songwritting goddess

The vibes that the songs release are magical and magnetic 😭

I love how it was her comeback era, a response to everyones assumptions about her and her love life.

I stan getaway car💀💕

Dancing with our hands tied is so underrated

My queen is so talented <33
