True, Born This Way is a horrible album that tried far too hard to convey what should be a simple message (I have it 1'd)
I'm sure this is more sincere, but is it any less shallow?

Born This Way was awful agreed

I think its shallowness is great; it's got no pretense, and it doesn't concern with being something that it's not, so it's free to be itself

I like your take on it - my partner is a massive RuPaul fan but I didn't quite feel up to giving the performance any kind of critique as I know zero about drag/trans culture!

I feel that as a fan of drag queens' culture I get a different vibe from this than other people, I'm just used to weird and unapologetic stuff like this (e.g. my dig, violet chachki, kelly mantle, manila luzon, etc etc)

I'm forcing him to listen as I figured it'd be right up his street - it's strange being with someone who's so apathetic about music though. But he did recognise the drag hall of fame from the performance when I read it out to him!

It takes a few listens to finally get this tho, it's such a mess at first
Violet Chachki's dress at the red carpet was 👌👌👌

I think the lack of focus is part of the appeal for me - it's chaotic fun, probably just in contrast to most average pop albums.

I didn't believe it at first either
listen to the album tho

I think Miley laughs when she sees people both criticizing her image and defending it. I don't think she has a big artistic statement about being yourself or anything. I think she just does stupid shit because she knows she'll piss a bunch of people off, and even better than that, she'll get some people to defend it.

that's very cynical
whatever you think her intentions were, the album ain't a single bit different, listen to it and judge it for what it is
|
| |
Yeah I'm not judging her or anything. I never disliked her, I just don't like her. That was mostly a response to the first page of comments (and however long that continued) on the review.

Miley just vomits whatever the fuck she wants into her music and it makes it that much more genuine.
I like that someone else besides me used the vomit metaphor!
