for best new artist i am sort 00:02:47.219 --> 00:02:53.050 of in what the grammys usually use as um category 00:02:53.050 --> 00:02:54.669 definer in that sense like if you want to be 00:02:54.669 --> 00:02:57.229 part of this group you don't necessarily have 00:02:57.229 --> 00:03:00.710 to like i've put out or i've come out with debuts 00:03:00.710 --> 00:03:04.030 like debut music now in this year but let's just 00:03:04.030 --> 00:03:06.729 say this is your first moment you've been you're 00:03:06.729 --> 00:03:09.289 becoming you're getting proper traction and having 00:03:09.289 --> 00:03:12.490 proper uh a proper moment i guess let's just 00:03:12.490 --> 00:03:17.909 say um now honorable mention first i wanted to 00:03:17.909 --> 00:03:21.840 talk about that audrey hobert i doubt she would 00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:23.539 be able to be classified as that because her 00:03:23.539 --> 00:03:26.419 music her album the only album she's ever had 00:03:26.419 --> 00:03:29.259 the debut album that she made i think was released 00:03:29.259 --> 00:03:34.979 in 2025 so it's been a while even though her 00:03:34.979 --> 00:03:37.800 music her other era is still stretched this year 00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:41.300 and still doing super well and sumi keeps on 00:03:41.300 --> 00:03:45.340 going viral and she's released silver jubilee 00:03:45.340 --> 00:03:47.120 you had a little moment on tech talk as well 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:50.259 phoebe's going like with the song phoebe is going 00:03:50.259 --> 00:03:54.099 viral as well yes um so she keeps on giving a 00:03:54.099 --> 00:03:57.280 lot of moments to us and i think um although 00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:01.699 her album came out a while ago and i don't think 00:04:01.699 --> 00:04:03.900 it would be able to be nominated for anything 00:04:03.900 --> 00:04:08.939 um it is still not worthy she would have been 00:04:08.939 --> 00:04:12.139 my Number one choice personally because I truly 00:04:12.139 --> 00:04:18.120 think she is So Like interesting and intriguing 00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:21.160 and like, you know, she's an interesting knack 00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:26.269 for monocle song making you like that's like 00:04:26.269 --> 00:04:28.250 that's so true but you see I've been technically 00:04:28.250 --> 00:04:32.569 written also by her and Risk as well was written 00:04:32.569 --> 00:04:35.310 by her and of course, you know sue me as well. 00:04:35.370 --> 00:04:38.709 It's a great song and All these are just tracks 00:04:38.709 --> 00:04:42.350 on her album just to solidify that she has something 00:04:42.350 --> 00:04:44.750 in her apart from just the personality and the 00:04:44.750 --> 00:04:48.129 quirky side of her that is really shining through 00:04:48.129 --> 00:04:51.089 the music, but I'm really really Looking forward 00:04:51.089 --> 00:04:53.089 to what she's gonna do next. So that's gonna 00:04:53.089 --> 00:04:59.360 be my honorable mention i guess but what we can 00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:04.079 talk about is her brother malcolm todd who technically 00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:09.899 is very explosively famous has become super super 00:05:09.899 --> 00:05:13.279 famous with her with his um with a few songs 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:18.720 from his previous album sweet boy but this album 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.939 only blew up i think mostly in the past year 00:05:22.750 --> 00:05:25.430 and then he also released a new album this year 00:05:25.430 --> 00:05:30.050 do that again so i could see him getting there 00:05:30.050 --> 00:05:32.990 and getting to that point and getting to the 00:05:32.990 --> 00:05:35.230 point where he could win even he has a lot of 00:05:35.230 --> 00:05:36.750 streams guys like he has probably out of all 00:05:36.750 --> 00:05:38.629 the people i'm talking about today he has the 00:05:38.629 --> 00:05:43.189 most streams overall like it's it could be easily 00:05:43.189 --> 00:05:47.990 his win i would say overall he doesn't make music 00:05:47.990 --> 00:05:51.879 that i personally Always enjoy it. I do have 00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:54.459 a few of his songs saved. Songs he makes, I do 00:05:54.459 --> 00:05:56.620 like. And they do remind me a little bit of Frank 00:05:56.620 --> 00:06:02.459 Ocean in some aspects. But I wouldn't say I'm 00:06:02.459 --> 00:06:05.839 an avid listener of Malcolm Todd. But Earrings, 00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:09.519 of course, is a big song that keeps on being 00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:13.240 at the top of the charts and is gaining so many 00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:17.300 streams. But that's from his older album that 00:06:17.300 --> 00:06:22.870 I talked about. did it again while it didn't 00:06:22.870 --> 00:06:27.490 like yield any major hits like um earrings or 00:06:27.490 --> 00:06:30.930 sweet boy or whatever um it did it did make some 00:06:30.930 --> 00:06:34.589 very good numbers like i saw your face breathe 00:06:34.589 --> 00:06:38.110 uh difficult love oh those are good good songs 00:06:38.110 --> 00:06:41.050 and i do definitely see like him having a good 00:06:41.050 --> 00:06:45.029 shot at that because it's still technically very 00:06:45.029 --> 00:06:47.009 relevant as a person and he's still and i think 00:06:47.009 --> 00:06:49.919 this year has been the year where he got really 00:06:49.919 --> 00:06:53.060 really big uh so that's yeah that's something 00:06:53.060 --> 00:06:58.199 to like keep a hold of i'm again not my favorite 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:02.459 choice because i don't really connect with the 00:07:02.459 --> 00:07:06.680 music like that some of the songs are very well 00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:09.620 produced very well executed it has a very interesting 00:07:09.620 --> 00:07:15.839 delivery but you know it's classic male performance 00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:19.000 like it's something you know it lacks a bit of 00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:25.180 bite a bit of personality um and again i don't 00:07:25.180 --> 00:07:26.740 think it's a bad thing that it's

like a bit derivative 00:07:26.740 --> 00:07:30.800 derivative of um frank ocean and all these other 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:35.160 people but it's still in that soundscape so it's 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:38.000 not doing anything like that to me is like completely 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:41.939 new or like he's bringing back anything specifically 00:07:41.939 --> 00:07:46.410 um You know, who's reinventing an older sound. 00:07:46.629 --> 00:07:49.310 I don't know. I don't really think he's doing 00:07:49.310 --> 00:07:51.829 much of that, but it's definitely something to 00:07:51.829 --> 00:07:54.209 be keeping an eye on and I think noteworthy of 00:07:54.209 --> 00:08:02.509 mention. Yeah, so gag for him, gag for him. Now, 00:08:02.509 --> 00:08:05.449 the one that we need to talk about is Ella Langley. 00:08:06.310 --> 00:08:10.329 Her bloody song, Choose in Texas, has been on 00:08:10.329 --> 00:08:15.850 the fucking Billboard 100 for... ages ages ages 00:08:15.850 --> 00:08:20.470 ages like guys, please can we like Find a way 00:08:20.470 --> 00:08:23.209 of getting rid of this fucking song is just so 00:08:23.209 --> 00:08:27.050 annoying. I'm not a fan Not a fan. I think also 00:08:27.050 --> 00:08:33.809 it sounds so Like AI generated for some reason 00:08:33.809 --> 00:08:36.929 I know it's not probably not but What I'm trying 00:08:36.929 --> 00:08:40.330 to say here is that it lacks any sort of character. 00:08:40.470 --> 00:08:43.970 It's like the blandest song ever i'm surprised 00:08:43.970 --> 00:08:47.409 it's getting like so actually maybe not because 00:08:47.409 --> 00:08:51.009 it's specifically maybe because it's that it's 00:08:51.009 --> 00:08:52.809 just reaching the common denominator and you 00:08:52.809 --> 00:08:55.889 cannot falter for that like again kudos she i'm 00:08:55.889 --> 00:08:57.149 including her in the list because i think she 00:08:57.149 --> 00:09:04.309 is actually another big big um you know big um 00:09:04.309 --> 00:09:06.990 contestant i guess like it was someone who could 00:09:06.990 --> 00:09:14.090 actually win um best new artist so I'm not shocked 00:09:14.090 --> 00:09:16.610 in a way but also I'm not really for it because 00:09:16.610 --> 00:09:19.409 it's not really something that I'm like okay 00:09:19.409 --> 00:09:21.789 this is pop music but also pop music with like 00:09:21.789 --> 00:09:25.610 a purpose and like a artistic vision and all 00:09:25.610 --> 00:09:28.309 that I'm not seeing that at all like I'm just 00:09:28.309 --> 00:09:33.590 not and maybe that's my fault I don't know maybe 00:09:33.590 --> 00:09:36.690 I'm not really it's my personal taste I'm not 00:09:36.690 --> 00:09:40.820 really sure But I'm not really, you know, invested 00:09:40.820 --> 00:09:43.039 in the whole Ella Langley of it all. I'm sure 00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:45.960 she's lovely, I'm sure she's whatever. But it's 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:47.980 one of those, like, classic country songs that 00:09:47.980 -->

00:09:51.200 really doesn't do much in terms of storytelling. 00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:53.080 There's good country music and there's bad country 00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:54.740 music. And I think this is just, like, middling 00:09:54.740 --> 00:10:01.899 in between. And, yeah. But definitely deserves, 00:10:02.220 --> 00:10:05.519 I think, a nomination at least. I think... Maybe 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:08.139 people will want to see her win. Maybe who knows? 00:10:09.659 --> 00:10:13.240 but Not in my books. Not in my books. Thank you 00:10:13.240 --> 00:10:14.919 very much. But thank you for the effort actually 00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:17.700 because I mean at the end of the day she's you 00:10:17.700 --> 00:10:22.419 know dominating the charts Regardless of what 00:10:22.419 --> 00:10:27.120 I have to say about it. So yeah Now this is the 00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:29.799 top two that I really want to talk about These 00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:35.279 two I think for me are I would be very happy 00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:37.019 with either of them winning, I would say, I guess. 00:10:37.419 --> 00:10:42.360 It's very, very, very, very fun to see what's 00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:45.919 going on here. One of them is a true best new 00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:50.200 artist. She's a true new artist. Her debut album 00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.580 came out literally a couple of days ago. And 00:10:54.580 --> 00:10:57.500 she's been having an incredible year with her 00:10:57.500 --> 00:11:04.300 singles and her previous EP as well. So... yeah 00:11:04.300 --> 00:11:07.639 like this is it uh and this is of course miss 00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:11.600 adela now adela i've talked about her a couple 00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:14.440 times on a podcast especially in connection to 00:11:14.440 --> 00:11:18.879 katai because they all went to the same um survival 00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:22.240 program that formed katai she was on it she was 00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:25.059 she had one of the worst experiences there i 00:11:25.059 --> 00:11:29.679 think she was really um a lot of prejudice against 00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:33.860 her i guess like everyone was not really seeing 00:11:33.860 --> 00:11:37.120 her with good faith, and she was, I would say, 00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:39.159 like, again, one of the most talented girls on 00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:42.740 there as well, or at least one of the most hard 00:11:42.740 --> 00:11:45.200 -working girls on there, and I think she did 00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:49.419 the best thing, and I mean, she probably is the 00:11:49.419 --> 00:11:51.120 best thing that came out of that show. Like, 00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:55.960 she eclipsed Cat's Eye in terms of, like, artistic 00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:59.500 integrity, and she's been making music that just 00:11:59.500 --> 00:12:03.259 really feels very true to her, and is... her 00:12:03.259 --> 00:12:04.840 experience also on like what happened on that 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:07.639 show and not and also her perspective as an immigrant 00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:12.159 in the u .s um and you know she's bringing a 00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:17.159 new side to pop and a very good biting you know 00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:20.139 character that we haven't seen in a while since 00:12:20.139 --> 00:12:24.860 i think maybe like a taemak ray but even more 00:12:24.860 --> 00:12:28.759 than like she's more more than the polished taemak 00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:33.200 ray situation she's more like a lady gaga a britney 00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:37.899 spears um you know that's what really calls me 00:12:37.899 --> 00:12:42.580 um when i listen to her but again great references 00:12:42.580 --> 00:12:45.399 reference points i guess also in her discography 00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:51.759 um and i think she managed to really establish 00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:53.899 her identity very early on i think she took notes 00:12:53.899 --> 00:12:58.440 from many female pop stars that know how to like 00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:02.950 you know create a brand at least her signature 00:13:02.950 --> 00:13:06.610 pink hair like you know is something that has 00:13:06.610 --> 00:13:10.039 been reoccurring in her music videos and promotional 00:13:10.039 --> 00:13:13.460 materials and all that and she is making herself 00:13:13.460 --> 00:13:16.019 known and marketed in that way so people remember 00:13:16.019 --> 00:13:19.860 associate that with her so that's so smart i 00:13:19.860 --> 00:13:21.759 really really enjoy that part as well the marketing 00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:24.580 side very smart taking notes again from the greats 00:13:24.580 --> 00:13:26.059 like ariana grande as well like the ponytail 00:13:26.059 --> 00:13:30.159 situation that screams to me like a big influence 00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:34.659 on her as well um and yeah and then also apart 00:13:34.659 --> 00:13:40.149 from that the actual music is really really intriguing 00:13:40.149 --> 00:13:45.870 and really out there and inspired and sort of 00:13:45.870 --> 00:13:49.169 connecting with you know the right people I think 00:13:49.169 --> 00:13:53.190 and I think the biggest proof of this has been 00:13:53.190 --> 00:13:58.389 also the third single I believe from third single 00:13:58.389 --> 00:14:01.250 yeah third single I believe from the album called 00:14:01.250 --> 00:14:06.100 ain't in LA and that song is an absolute banger 00:14:06.100 --> 00:14:10.679 first of all but also such a smart song to write 00:14:10.679 --> 00:14:14.279 about first of all because it is sort of interpolating 00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:16.519 We Can't Stop by Manny Cyrus again another big 00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:23.039 influence on her and the rapper I guess the person 00:14:23.039 --> 00:14:27.559 who did the low -pitched refrain in We Can't 00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:29.340 Stop was the same person who did the refrain 00:14:29.340 --> 00:14:33.600 here in LA. Very, very inspired. Very, very cool. 00:14:33.700 --> 00:14:35.700 But again, I think the

novelty about this song 00:14:35.700 --> 00:14:38.740 is also the message that it's bringing. And this 00:14:38.740 --> 00:14:40.919 is like, I know it is going to sound crazy a 00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:42.919 little bit, but this does sound a little bit 00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:51.480 like Lord and Royals. And it has that, you know, 00:14:51.500 --> 00:15:00.240 like suburbia or like being famous you know only 00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.399 like you know rejecting us like the stereotypically 00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:08.419 famous people or like you know fame doesn't come 00:15:08.419 --> 00:15:11.000 necessarily from places like LA or New York or 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:13.120 whatever or these big cities like she's representing 00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:15.100 I guess she's putting a message forward for all 00:15:15.100 --> 00:15:18.559 the people who are not in these hot spots in 00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:22.539 that sense and they still are worth it and special 00:15:22.539 --> 00:15:25.759 and everything else and and that really screamed 00:15:25.759 --> 00:15:29.379 like royals by lord and representing youth in 00:15:29.379 --> 00:15:31.340 that sense and she's doing the same here in a 00:15:31.340 --> 00:15:34.340 way poppier way you know in a more like definitely 00:15:34.340 --> 00:15:38.360 more pop leaning but the message is so so fun 00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:40.360 and so strong and you know she says like the 00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:43.220 baddest bitches ain't la like you know you can 00:15:43.220 --> 00:15:47.000 be anywhere from the world and still be the baddest 00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:49.659 bitch you know you don't have to be following 00:15:49.659 --> 00:15:52.879 what's uh on instagram or like seeing what the 00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.059 hotspots are at you are the baddest bitch on 00:15:56.059 --> 00:15:59.059 the world and coming from a specific and that 00:15:59.059 --> 00:16:00.980 links also of course to her identity as a person 00:16:00.980 --> 00:16:03.240 and i as an immigrant and coming from not the 00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:07.139 u .s and being born somewhere else really drives 00:16:07.139 --> 00:16:10.240 the point home and it's such a fun song and it's 00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:12.399 really resonating with a lot of people and it 00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:14.679 has of course become a trend on tiktok and it's 00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:18.039 become like a big big phenomena really really 00:16:19.129 --> 00:16:22.090 happy to see so i mean adela is doing absolutely 00:16:22.090 --> 00:16:28.210 great um and definitely rising by the minute 00:16:28.210 --> 00:16:31.149 this song i think rain and lay specifically is 00:16:31.149 --> 00:16:35.870 doing so well streaming wise it's growing steadily 00:16:35.870 --> 00:16:39.690 i think it's going to be a big hit for her i 00:16:39.690 --> 00:16:41.990 think it is at the moment the most stream song 00:16:41.990 --> 00:16:44.669 that she ever has ever put out so she's even 00:16:44.669 --> 00:16:49.559 surpassed her fan favorite super scar so yeah 00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:55.879 do i think she's my number one like you know 00:16:55.879 --> 00:17:00.759 prediction for winning or like at least who i 00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:03.960 want to win the award maybe not i think maybe 00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:07.900 i'd want to talk about in a second to win the 00:17:07.900 --> 00:17:10.700 only reason why i say this is because i'm not 00:17:10.700 --> 00:17:14.059 saying i found prima her debut album disappointing 00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:24.180 But I do think there has been more of a sacrifice 00:17:24.180 --> 00:17:27.539 in this album, and it's been made slightly more 00:17:27.539 --> 00:17:33.779 pop, radio -friendly, let's just say, in terms 00:17:33.779 --> 00:17:35.880 of sound. I'm not saying in terms of, of course, 00:17:35.940 --> 00:17:38.319 videos or anything else, that's still very true 00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:40.160 to her, but I think the music itself has become 00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:44.519 a little, slightly more safe, which is so fine. 00:17:45.109 --> 00:17:47.450 And I mean, it's definitely paying off because 00:17:47.450 --> 00:17:51.190 of, you know, A &L and all that. But I did really 00:17:51.190 --> 00:17:53.950 like what she did on her EP, The Provocateur, 00:17:54.150 --> 00:17:58.329 much, much more personally. Just, I think that 00:17:58.329 --> 00:18:05.210 was very out there, very experimental, very new 00:18:05.210 --> 00:18:10.250 and fresh and biting. And there is on there some 00:18:10.250 --> 00:18:12.950 of the same material as this album in terms of, 00:18:12.950 --> 00:18:21.740 you know, um like having this industry um wake 00:18:21.740 --> 00:18:25.660 up call like you know being you know being subject 00:18:25.660 --> 00:18:28.339 to hate and all this stuff and being not from 00:18:28.339 --> 00:18:30.859 the u .s and all and that and i think that was 00:18:30.859 --> 00:18:32.680 just very interesting the way it was done there 00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:37.240 as well but yeah i did like the sound on that 00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:39.500 one a little bit more than this one i think this 00:18:39.500 --> 00:18:43.200 is like a more commercially friendly album compared 00:18:43.200 --> 00:18:44.680 to the other one which is it's not again there's 00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:47.000 nothing wrong with it but i just personally taste 00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:50.160 wise prefer her doing the provocateur situation 00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:54.700 i mean kgb sort of is a bridge but i think kgb 00:18:54.700 --> 00:18:57.440 is still definitely safer compared to like um 00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:05.259 sex gonna be or go or like machine girl any of 00:19:05.259 --> 00:19:08.799 these um so yeah But I'm very excited to see 00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:10.980 where she goes next as well and how big she's 00:19:10.980 --> 00:19:14.859 going to become with the next few... Well, she's 00:19:14.859 --> 00:19:17.759 on tour, but also I think she's

going to be performing 00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:20.799 on other big shows, hopefully. We'll see. I'm 00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:24.660 very excited for this. Very cool. Now, on to 00:19:24.660 --> 00:19:27.720 my final girl that I really am rooting for here. 00:19:29.700 --> 00:19:34.119 Miss Slater. Now, Slater, again, this is where 00:19:34.119 --> 00:19:43.660 the category... like the um what is it called 00:19:43.660 --> 00:19:51.559 like the category category comes in clutch because 00:19:51.559 --> 00:19:53.619 slater has been making music for quite a bit 00:19:53.619 --> 00:19:56.940 now but she's always been a cult classic i would 00:19:56.940 --> 00:19:58.960 say i've always listened to her if i have to 00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:03.019 be honest i've loved her eps and her albums before 00:20:03.019 --> 00:20:06.690 this uh before we were scrolling in america And 00:20:06.690 --> 00:20:09.509 I'm also happy to see that she hasn't really 00:20:09.509 --> 00:20:11.849 departed much from her identity as an artist 00:20:11.849 --> 00:20:13.529 to become this successful. I think people are 00:20:13.529 --> 00:20:16.289 starting to connect more with her in terms of 00:20:16.289 --> 00:20:19.029 also what she's put out there at the moment, 00:20:19.130 --> 00:20:23.589 which is so fun. But I've loved Starfucker. I've 00:20:23.589 --> 00:20:30.509 loved many songs from the EP where she had Mine 00:20:30.509 --> 00:20:34.529 and all these ones. I think that EP was called 00:20:34.529 --> 00:20:41.349 Slater. Anyways, I've loved the, you know, Overdays 00:20:41.349 --> 00:20:43.250 as well is one of my favourite songs from hers 00:20:43.250 --> 00:20:47.509 ever. Like, Trouble Paradise was a cool album 00:20:47.509 --> 00:20:51.369 as well. I mean, she's had incredible songs. 00:20:51.769 --> 00:20:54.509 I do like a lot of what she's done before as 00:20:54.509 --> 00:20:57.750 well. But I think this really is becoming a moment 00:20:57.750 --> 00:21:03.710 for her. And I think Crank It has become the... 00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:08.539 spearheader in that sense specifically the the 00:21:08.539 --> 00:21:10.700 way it's being performed i know it's not the 00:21:10.700 --> 00:21:12.779 most streamed song on that album but i think 00:21:12.779 --> 00:21:15.579 overall the album was received so well and crank 00:21:15.579 --> 00:21:18.619 is the one that always has the biggest impact 00:21:18.619 --> 00:21:21.180 on crowds in all these festivals that she's done 00:21:21.180 --> 00:21:24.180 recently so festivals are definitely putting 00:21:24.180 --> 00:21:28.339 them up even more but to see her rise so much 00:21:28.339 --> 00:21:32.589 for this album has been so nice to see i think 00:21:32.589 --> 00:21:36.549 she's occupied a very nice space um this whole 00:21:36.549 --> 00:21:39.170 summer she was like you know giving us this very 00:21:39.170 --> 00:21:44.450 aggressive and um reactionary work that she's 00:21:44.450 --> 00:21:49.190 done and embracing

sort of this like chaotic 00:21:49.190 --> 00:21:55.250 persona and music it was so good and again she 00:21:55.250 --> 00:22:01.000 has these like um very strong aggressive moments 00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:02.920 and i'm like i'm actually kind of famous that 00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:07.240 was incredible or um well crank is also a great 00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:10.819 example of this uh breed up chanel's absolute 00:22:10.819 --> 00:22:14.839 favorite um and of course dance has become one 00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:20.910 of her biggest songs ever with um 75 million 00:22:20.910 --> 00:22:23.650 streams as of now and then she topped it all 00:22:23.650 --> 00:22:27.009 off with a single a new single after did a recent 00:22:27.009 --> 00:22:30.329 album called brand new chanels which is a play 00:22:30.329 --> 00:22:34.890 on of course beat up chanels um and here narrative 00:22:34.890 --> 00:22:37.250 is like sort of flipped while on beat up chanels 00:22:37.250 --> 00:22:39.970 like she's sort of talking about she's reflecting 00:22:39.970 --> 00:22:47.269 on herself and um how she you know thrives and 00:22:47.269 --> 00:22:51.089 finds value like in you know in this very chaotic 00:22:51.089 --> 00:22:59.009 and, I would say, like, you know, relatable girl, 00:22:59.130 --> 00:23:02.170 like, party rager situation where, like, she 00:23:02.170 --> 00:23:04.990 loves her Chanel to be, like, beat up and, like, 00:23:04.990 --> 00:23:07.130 you know, she likes the secondhand stuff and 00:23:07.130 --> 00:23:11.650 the stickiest weed and all that stuff.

If there's anything that I've 00:26:58.829 --> 00:27:02.250 missed, please put it in the comments below. 00:27:02.940 --> 00:27:04.460 or let me know what you think about all these 00:27:04.460 --> 00:27:06.160 artists i've talked about and i'm sorry if you 00:27:06.160 --> 00:27:08.519 are a fan of the people that i've said i'm not 00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:11.019 really particularly a fan of it's okay it's personal 00:27:11.019 --> 00:27:14.019 taste don't get it you know twisted like you 00:27:14.019 --> 00:27:17.500 your taste is also valid whatever um so yeah 00:27:17.500 --> 00:27:21.579 i'll leave you to the sponsor of the week and 00:27:21.579 --> 00:27:24.400 then i'll see you with songs the week as well 00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:39.859 at the end see you in a bit I feel like every 00:27:39.859 --> 00:27:43.140 time I open Instagram, someone's trying to convince 00:27:43.140 --> 00:27:45.500 me that I need to completely overhaul my life. 00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:48.539 Like new diet, new workout, new supplement, new 00:27:48.539 --> 00:27:50.819 morning routine, where apparently I have to wake 00:27:50.819 --> 00:27:53.099 up at like 4 a .m. and become a different person. 00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:55.319 But if you're interested in taking a more practical 00:27:55.319 --> 00:27:58.619 approach to your health, I want to tell you about 00:27:58.619 --> 00:28:02.589 1228. They make science -backed supplements focused 00:28:02.589 --> 00:28:05.349 on things like energy, metabolism, muscle strength, 00:28:05.569 --> 00:28:08.069 and healthy aging. They have a few different 00:28:08.069 --> 00:28:09.509 products depending on what you're looking for. 00:28:09.730 --> 00:28:12.730 Their NAD Plus supplement is designed to support 00:28:12.730 --> 00:28:16.210 cellular energy and healthy aging. Their Berberine 00:28:16.210 --> 00:28:19.809 formula focuses on metabolic health, and they 00:28:19.809 --> 00:28:22.710 also have a muscle plus bone protein powder for 00:28:22.710 --> 00:28:24.890 people who want support strength, recovery, and 00:28:24.890 --> 00:28:28.140 mobility. but overall what i really like about 00:28:28.140 --> 00:28:30.480 the approach is that it's less about some dramatic 00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:32.579 transformation and more about finding things 00:28:32.579 --> 00:28:35.180 that can fit

First one is Blame Brad by 00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:58.920 The Beaches. Blame My Ex. That's what they say 00:29:58.920 --> 00:30:01.140 all the time. I know they all say Blame Brad, 00:30:01.220 --> 00:30:03.059 but this song, I always remember it as Blame 00:30:03.059 --> 00:30:06.980 My Ex, Blame My Ex, Blame My Ex. So it's like 00:30:06.980 --> 00:30:09.579 sort of, you know, that sort of sentiment. It's 00:30:09.579 --> 00:30:12.539 a very punk rockish song. Very band focused. 00:30:12.980 --> 00:30:17.940 Very cool. It's such a good like rhythm to it. 00:30:18.039 --> 00:30:20.380 It's very fast paced as well. And again, it's 00:30:20.380 --> 00:30:22.599 like, you know, as you can tell, it's about blaming 00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:27.440 your ex for being in such a state, let's just 00:30:27.440 --> 00:30:33.819 say, in a very non -demure state. But yeah, I 00:30:33.819 --> 00:30:36.940 mean, the song is very, very fun. I think it's 00:30:36.940 --> 00:30:39.660 also, if you like rock music a little bit, like 00:30:39.660 --> 00:30:43.180 the punk situation specifically. This is very, 00:30:43.220 --> 00:30:47.579 very, very fun. Very, very good. I don't know 00:30:47.579 --> 00:30:52.599 much about, like, you know, the band itself, 00:30:52.779 --> 00:30:59.160 but they slay, nonetheless. They do slay. Next, 00:30:59.420 --> 00:31:05.339 Heaven by Jennie from her special EP. Let's just 00:31:05.339 --> 00:31:06.960 call it that. It's just two songs or something 00:31:06.960 --> 00:31:11.420 like that. Three songs. This song is so good. 00:31:11.900 --> 00:31:14.279 i mean i called it on my instagram stories i 00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:20.599 called it um like born to die in a way but like 00:31:20.599 --> 00:31:23.819 very good very good i mean it definitely sounds 00:31:23.819 --> 00:31:28.400 like blue jeans by um louder right but i don't 00:31:28.400 --> 00:31:32.940 i don't mind it i i'm not mad at it and um i 00:31:32.940 --> 00:31:34.480 do think when i listen to the song i'm like okay 00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:36.640 if she actually went full batshit lana crazy 00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:38.619 on the song like in terms of lyrics so it's saying 00:31:38.619 --> 00:31:41.299 something very outrageous This would have been 00:31:41.299 --> 00:31:44.039 even more of a hit, in my opinion. But I'm still 00:31:44.039 --> 00:31:46.079 vibing with it. The production is so good. It's 00:31:46.079 --> 00:31:51.740 so born -a -die -decent. And it's so good. I'm 00:31:51.740 --> 00:31:55.660 so glad she's doubling, like, in different sounds. 00:31:55.740 --> 00:31:58.920 And Jenny is... I'm gonna die on the table. She 00:31:58.920 --> 00:32:02.819 is the most interesting, or at least artistically 00:32:02.819 --> 00:32:09.099 independent and explorative member of Blackpink. 00:32:09.789 --> 00:32:12.029 She always does something a bit different and 00:32:12.029 --> 00:32:15.190 a bit more expert. Like, you know, she's not 00:32:15.190 --> 00:32:17.630 afraid to try new things and to do things out 00:32:17.630 --> 00:32:19.970 of the box. And this was it. I think this was 00:32:19.970 --> 00:32:22.230 really, really interesting. I'm hoping she builds 00:32:22.230 --> 00:32:26.069 off of this sound for a new project. That would 00:32:26.069 --> 00:32:28.490 be very interesting to see. Love this song. Love 00:32:28.490 --> 00:32:31.109 the melody. Love the background vocals around 00:32:31.109 --> 00:32:33.950 this. The strings, everything else is just so, 00:32:34.130 --> 00:32:36.569 so, so good. Definitely listen to it if you like. 00:32:37.049 --> 00:32:39.630 Born to die by the way era that this is gonna 00:32:39.630 --> 00:32:45.089 be for you then I have Bloody Paradise by ENHYPHEN 00:32:45.089 --> 00:32:47.410 ENHYPHEN I never know how to pronounce their 00:32:47.410 --> 00:32:52.029 name whatever I think ENHYPHEN is the best group 00:32:52.029 --> 00:32:54.950 that HYBE has the male in terms of like boy group 00:32:54.950 --> 00:32:58.990 because they always serve cunt I don't know they 00:32:58.990 --> 00:33:01.269 always do they always make cunty music where 00:33:01.269 --> 00:33:03.549 like not it's always very cunty and this is like 00:33:03.549 --> 00:33:07.809 pure brazilian funk like the tiktok brazilian

That's a song that she's been teething 00:34:10.090 --> 00:34:12.429 for a bit. We've seen performances of it on our 00:34:12.429 --> 00:34:15.809 stages. Very fun.
