Regardless of what Camila does or doesn't do, the production here is 100% the highlight. It's incredible.

"being submissive or needy doesn't necessarily imply a lack of agency or personality as an artist"



Entirely fair, what I would say is that there's an authenticity to CRJ's neediness that isn't present here. I don't mean to decry horni in music at all, either confident and assured or insecure and desperate, but instead I guess I'm trying to say that I don't a feel a real person being horny under Camilla's assertions; I hear an empty popstar saying what she thinks is necessary to fulfill her new, hypersexual hyperpop persona. I think that's especially why I hate the "Is she wet like me baby" line, there's no tension to release, its just exposition.

And I don't intend to change your mind on liking this album Sowing, I'm just interested by my own reaction to this album v other pop albums and its been fun exploring it

Album Rating: 2.7

The production is roughly 80% of what's good about this, Cabello occasionally succeeding in feeling less shoehorned and tryhard is the other 20%

The Charli comparisons aren't necessarily for Brat, they are moreso about Charli's aesthetic that has dated back nearly a decade to Vroom Vroom. Camila used Charli as a songwriter in the past, so it's not exactly hard to roll your eyes at everything from the hyperpop "I Luv It" to the album's title C,XOXO riding the sorta maximalist, punk, random elements that Charli reinvented herself from.



This album isn't really much like what Charli has been doing, and I think that can almost entirely be due to the fact that it sounds like Camila has no command over the music she's putting out here. "June Gloom" is probably my favorite simply because it sounds like a good mix of where both Charli and Camila were at circa 2017, fused together for big, dumb song (with even dumber lyrics). Too often, this thing feels like it doesn't understand how to be dark or sexy or mysterious or carefree, but it's aping the motions of people who do. Minute to minute, there are moments of intrigue but as a whole it washed over me in light of there being many better alternatives immediately available.

That's the recipe, too bad because there's a few times it feels like it could work
