Grimes produced a new Aristophanes song, Humans Become Machines: youtube.com/watch?v=BHmVqMISPLw If you don't know, Aristophanes is that Taiwanese rapper that performed on SCREAM.
Kinda. She posted 2 pics on her IG to promote a charity project (see her shirt). Like I needed other reasons to like her, she's so generous and nice...
Ayden Gutierrez
why is she so obsessed with "yall" lately
also have you noticed she's been acting more and more like a hippie? like look at her in 2010, i recall her cringing and saying "I really hate to use the word, but for lack of a better term I really vibe..." or something like that in an interview.
i have a few theories, most of them revolve around the idea that since AA came out she's distanced herself personally from her fans and created a public persona that is far removed from herself. smart move, imo, but i dont want to pretend to know if shes being fake or not.
she's mentioned before how she has to sanitize herself so that everything she says is positive.

>>This is still very vague. Point to a specific example in her music. >youtube.com/watch?v=eTLTXDHrgtw >Listen to the bass drum part starting at 1:18 and notice how it gets tuned down by an octave in frequency (despite the fact that it is a usually a pitchless effect) at 1:26 before being brought back up a minor 7th and then a whole step back to it's original frequency, thereby forming a miniature melodic line in tune with the rest of the song. > >Stuff like this happens in her music all the time. Single percussive sounds that have a uniform rhythmic purpose have their melodic properties emphasized and then their pitches tweaked in order to add an extra melodic layer of interest to what's going on.

bad music for retarded people

Most overrated artist of the decade. She looks like a giraffe bye.

Michael Scott
if that means less people obsessed with her i'm all for it. i usually think i'm over obsessing with her but then i listen to her last.fm scrobbles often. makes me feel comfy, like i was her in 2006
Parker Morris
hmm i was actually over that a year before, it's been a negative experience overall
Nathaniel Torres
I like this pic because I can imagine she's urinating on my genitals.
Jack Thomas
>2006 was over a decade ago wew
Owen Brown
yet i more or less have the age she had then.. now i need to start taking estrogen so i become a cute girl like her also if you're anything like me try listening to her scrobbles, it feels good, i don't know
Zachary Thompson
If you're the same age she was in 2006 (18), it's too late for you to become a qt grill.

>why is she so obsessed with "yall" lately Because she likes that expression. In general Grimes writes in the same way she speaks.
>but i dont want to pretend to know if shes being fake or not. Come on. Don't pretend that you're acting like yourself when speaking in public. You put "the official mask" on, right? Why do you expect her to speak casually (she did that for many years but she learned a thing or two about PR from Roc Nation) when you wouldn't even dare to do that?

>Pitchfork: Who's the woman with the pink braids, Brooke Candy? >CB: I played a show in L.A. a few months ago, and I saw her at a party. She looked so cool that I was like, "OK, I'm just going to move to L.A. because that person has the best style I've ever seen in my life." So I moved to L.A. for a couple of weeks and I ran into her at a party pretty much on the first day. I was just like, "Dude, you have the most star power of any person I've ever met. I need to make a music video and I need you to drive it as a character." >I don't have any money to hire actors. I just need to get people who are going to do a good job being themselves. Brooke Candy was the first person I found. It was all about her. >Pitchfork: What's her background? >CB: She's like a very contemporary muse: People make outfits for her, do her hair, take pictures with her, have her host things. She's like the Ryan Seacrest of indie culture; she's extremely magnetic. Whenever she's in a room, you just feel everyone being pulled towards her. She's also really comfortable with herself, which is key. Sometimes you find people who are magnetic, but once they get in front of a camera, they freak out and get weird. But she performs all the time. She's super powerful and aggressive, but really warm at the same time. That's a really good line to walk. You might be kind of afraid of her, but you still want to be around her. She's very kind in real life. pitchfork.com/features/directors-cut/8929-grimes/

Where's the music discussion, nitwit?
Jack Bell
Grimes doesn't like that Brooke Candy anymore. Maybe even Flesh Without Blood is about her.
Gavin Wilson
>Grimes doesn't like that Brooke Candy anymore how do you know
Isaiah Fisher
I think I've read that on an interview. The thing is she didn't mention her anymore after 2012.
Bentley Kelly
>One thing I'm not sure I like when it comes to criticisms of the album -- I swear I can handle negative opinions, this is just a thought -- is that people have claimed she's gone too pop or too Top 40. Listening to this album, I struggle to hear anything outside of maybe 'Flesh Without Blood' on a particularly daring college pop station getting any sort of spin. Catchy melodies and production flourishes that touch on '90s rock guitars aren't exactly Top 40 these days. I've read some saying that 'Venus Fly' would fit in on the pop charts these days, and it kind of boggles the mind; where is this Top 40?? Can I get in on that one?
I was locked up for over a month and the thing I missed most was grimes general threads. So glad to be back and to find that her Venus Flytrap video is out. Life is good again!
Asher Carter
Kek. Is that the trannie from Against Me?
Henry Wood
No, you idiot. That's Grimes. She's a female.
Cooper Ortiz
I saw here live opening up for Lana del Rey and she was nothing compared to Lana ofcorse but her music was great she put on a wonderful show
Nathan Davis
Actually nevermind. These are mainly speculations.
>For what it's worth, if it is about Brooke, they don't follow each other on any social media platforms anymore.
When she did that tour I wondered if there was much crossover between Grimes and Lana del Rey fans. Maybe I wrongly assumed that Lana's fans would "get" Grimes.
Aaron Robinson
>she was nothing compared to Lana ofcorse Do you really believe that Lana's sleepy songs have any chance against the full assault of Grimes' bangers?
Aiden Gonzalez
LDR fans are womem.
Grimes fans are feminist train wrecks and waifu faggots.
Wyatt Bell
Love the beat but really don't like the vocals. Is there an instrumental version of this song? Really cool music video though.
Nathan Lopez
It was the first time I ever heard of her and her live music was so much better then her recorded in my opinion
Tyler Gutierrez
claire boucher, i love you
Ayden Jackson
Grimes fans a wonderful human beings with a truly sunny disposion, mister saltyman.
Jose Mitchell
See pic related. She occasionally likes Grimes' posts as well fwiw.
Regardless, imo speculating about people's personal lives on an incredibly public forum like the open internet is never a cool thing. It's like talking about someone behind their back when they are, in fact, in the same room with you and within earshot.
>It's like talking about someone behind their back when they are, in fact, in the same room with you and within earshot. she and people who know her do not keep track of these threads and they do not visit these threads.
