a bit chaotic yesterday so i missed a post, but i found this song on bopdrop & i love it SO MUCH. especially a cool song bc i visited montana for the first time earlier this year & the song suits it so well. great mountainy, chill pop vibes
Honestly Donda isn’t an AOTY contender or anything in my opinion (just my thoughts!!) idk, felt a little repetitive and boring. Maybe the hype up for the album raised my expectations too much, or maybe I need some time for it to grow on me! I’ll definitely keep listening before I finally make an opinion though. My favorites atm are Hurricane, Pure Souls, & Moon!! Kanye stans don’t grill me 😀🙏
Had a breakdown in a hole in the wall pancake house in the Middle of Nowhere, Illinois this morning and THIS was the song playing. Had to honor it. Goodbye 🥞🫶
another really late post mb... i literally don’t even do anything all day except sit around on my phone so idk why i always put this off but rockin heavily with earl, especially in the past week or two
Happy 3 years (and one day) to Swimming 🤍🤍 Thank you Mac for sticking with this first version of CBtE out of the 13 that you made, it’s perfect. We miss you.
new jaden = highlight of my night
sad song today because i’m backed up so far on homework that i gave up on from earlier this semester…only 2 more weeks though 😁😻
Posted this song (the version without the LCV choir) a year ago but it will always speak to me. 🕊🤎
A good day 😊😊🌃
i rlly appreciate how this song goes back & forth between a freeing, boundless “solo” with the depressed and lonely idea of being “so low”. the way frank rlly contrasts the good vs. evil, high vs. low relationship of life in this song is just incredible. i love every part of it. it really builds on the prominent theme of duality in the whole album itself, too. anyway, there’s my take on frank ocean’s solo.
one of my fav small artists!!! seriously though, having under 900 monthly listeners is such a crime, this is my fav song of his 😎
