New Music Friday
Jun. 10th, 2022 10:37 pmYou know that saying "We plan, God laughs" of some variety... that's been my whole week. I went into this week with so many good, exciting plans. I'm holding out that my Sunday plans hold fast, but we'll see I guess.
I don't have a lot of spoons left, but I do have music I wanted to share. "New" is subjective, these are either very recent or recent-ish and new to me. So here's the basics, if you're looking for something new to listen to this week.
Tiny Desk (Home) Concert from Feintstein's 54 Below for the Broadway show, A Strange Loop. It's a musical about a fat, black, queer man. And in 2020 Composer & Playwright, Michael R. Jackson was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for A Strange Loop, becoming the first black musical theatre writer to win the award. There's so much queer happiness in this video and cast.
Chappell Roan - My Kink is Karma, this song has been on repeat for me lately. The video is cool, and the song's lyrics are just so much. I feel like this is Villain era pop music, so if that's a thing for you, try this. Lyrics for example: "People say I’m jealous but my kink is watching you / crashing your car / You breaking your heart / You thinking I care / People say I’m jealous but my kink is karma"
And then we've got another video/song from King Princess, which I think means we're getting close to a new album and I will not be quiet about it when it shows up. This is my music vibe right now, these kind of devil may care, badass vibes. I'm liking it a very normal amount... probably.
Last week we got the Deluxe Inside album from Bo Burnham from the outtakes of his show from last year that he recently loaded to YouTube. If you liked his show Inside and want more of where that came from, you'll want to take a listen to this one.
Last week there was also a full Spanish language album from Christina Aguilera which if you like her voice and her style, is exactly that but now in Spanish. It's titled simply, Aguilera.
One of my tiktok musical crushes, emlyn dropped her full album today, loneliest b!tch in america. And if you're also to into Villain vibes pop songs, this album has you covered.
I hope your week has been better than mine. If you've been listening to something new lately, drop it in the comments. <3
