This project was a bit too Brent & Sonder-esque for me to really enjoy. (I like Brent & Sonder, but Odeal’s got his own lane and didn’t have to leave his for someone else’s) music.apple.com/us/album/lus...

I expected a lot more from ‘Sli’merre 2.” Nudy and Pierre are coasting through this and not in the way I like. They’re on autopilot and too nonchalant

Fun fact: If someone quotes a post of yours in a way that is unwelcome (as is commonplace on Twitter/X) there is a tool to combat the unwanted attention. Simply click the three dot menu on the quote post & click "Detach quote". This removes your post from their quote post. Useful to know, do share!
