Miley’s Bass Persuades just dropped.
1. I really appreciate that she got into electronic music the same time I did 🌝
2. She does something different with every single album, which is always fun to look forward to. Talk about range.
3. Her take on electronic is much harder, and leans towards the kind of techno I don’t listen to (I’m more of an electronic*a* girlie) but there is an undertone of pop hook that keeps me tuned in.
4. The album starts off as dance heavy but builds around an emotional core. The shift happens right away, on track 3 (“Let’s get Married”)
5. This is a very millennial album. From the chorus of the lead single, “the kids don’t want to dance” to talking about “let’s get married tonight” - what a concept, girl. The kids don’t want to dance *or* get hitched. We want to fuck and then go back to our single-person-and-plants households.
6. That is not a diss. I love that this album is a pop-heavy, electronic-heavy, millennial-coded album from a woman people have started calling “older”.
7. I don’t think I will listen to this album too many more times, but some hooks will stick and I love that it exists in the world.
