The unbelievable part was that he proposed – through the wall – and she said yes! One of the white guys hit it off with a black girl (that's not the unbelievable part – chill out). Whilst I was still trying to determine if I hated hearing the pansexual black guy or the 24-year-old white guy talk more, the most unbelievable thing happened. The show proceeded like most of these shows do and bits of information about each character were given – so that I could pick favourites. Sound stupid? It is.īut Hannah was already watching it when I entered the room so I decided to sit through it… for research purposes. Instead, they have to go into private rooms to talk to their prospective lovers through an adjoining wall (think of every gloryhole porno you've watched then take away the hole). The twist? They don't get to see each other. The boys are in one part of the house, the girls in the other. I'm kidding! I'm 99 per cent sure it's hosted by Jessica Simpson's ex.Īnyway, the show seemed straight forward enough to me at first: A bunch of loveless strangers move into a house apparently there to meet their future wife or husband. No, Hannah was watching Netflix's latest attempt at a dating show – Love Is Blind, hosted by Stevie Wonder. So when I walked into the lounge this morning and saw her watching some white guy and a hot black chick flirting either side of a dividing wall I thought, ‘Waheyyyy, Hannah and I watch the same sort of stuff.' But as it turned out, Hannah wasn't watching one of those films. More importantly, now I live with Hannah: a little English girl whose taste in televisual stimulation I'll politely describe as basic.
I couldn't even sit through one full episode of a talent/'my story is sad please vote for me' show. I could go on and on about each and every song, but I want you to go and enjoy it for yourself.Back in New Zealand, I avoided "reality TV" like the plague. Lastly, their song “2 Minute Warning” has that ’90s and early ’00s vibe that we’ve been missing for a while now. Whether you can connect to the bitterness of Jhené’s voice on “Talk Show,” or swoon over Big Sean’s line “the only two times I ever needed you was now and forever” in “London Bridge,” there’s something for everyone on this album. It does lean more toward the chill side, so if you’re looking for heavy-hitting club bangers, this might not be the avenue for you to explore, but there are some upbeat tempos to get you going. If you’re still not convinced, let me leave you with this: A lot of mainstream music has moved away from those feel-good, smooth songs that make you feel something. Like the album, the visual short dropped on Tidal but it is now available for all to watch on Vevo/YouTube. I could spoil it for you, but you can watch it for yourself below.
If those other reasons did nothing for you, they sealed the deal by releasing a short film called “Out of Love,” which features all of the songs on the album, different scenes to match each song and a deeper message that expands beyond mere visual satisfaction. The album was initially released on Tidal, but shortly after, music lovers could find it on iTunes and even Spotify. Photo: giphy They were not stingy with getting the music to their fans The promotional videos for the album release were short and sweet but worthy of attentionĪs a matter of fact, their entire promotion game for this album has been phenomenal ever since it started four days before the album dropped. If #Twenty88 turns out to be an April Fool’s joke, I’m unstanning cuz I’m mad hyped KIB is a Flop March 28, 2016 If #Twenty88 is just an Aprils fools joke they gone ruin my April I was excited af when I heard about #Twenty88, then I saw the date… It releases on April Fool’s, so it’s gonna be all lies ? But the duo did not disappoint ( unlike someone who I am still waiting to bless my ears). Many social media speculators thought the rap and neo-soul experts coming together musically would be too good to be true. Photo: MTV They dropped the album on April Fools Day but did not trick us
