She posted snippets of three non-album tracks today.... Hello Goodbye, Guess and Spring Breakers. Deluxe incoming?
Plenty of “club bangers” on here but it actually sounds more varied than I expected given the sonic universe it’s working in, if that makes sense. Girl, so confusing and Apple fucking rulllle. The production is wild throughout the whole thing. Edit: production in Mean Girls is so smooth, oh man, love this one
Sorry for the double post but this thing REALLY takes off during the second half (which is saying something because the first half is already quite good!)
Also if anyone wants to hear Spring Breakers, it's been out there on dbree since last fall. Don't remember if it's the full and final version

There’s a lyric in “Sympathy” that was very jarring and really threw me off, not in a good way …you’ll know it when you hear it
I have always enjoyed how she seems to be a step ahead in terms of pop music and this holds that trend.
This rules…def not a hit on this record in terms of mainstream success, but she knew exactly what she was going for and succeeded.
