What's up everybody? Welcome back to
Brandon Pulliam:the Discovering Discographies podcast. Where we talk about your favorite artists, albums, and all things music. I'm your host, Brandon Pulliam.
Brandon Pointe:And I'm your host, Brandon Pointe.
Brandon Pulliam:And without further ado, let's dive into today's topic. Well, well, well, look who's back. I know. It's been a long while. Guess who's back?
Brandon Pulliam:Back again. Back to back May, backstack oh,
Brandon Pointe:I thought we were doing No. I was
Brandon Pulliam:I was going more M and M.
Brandon Pointe:Okay. Okay.
Brandon Pulliam:The real sunshade. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:But how is everybody doing? It has been a while, and a lot of music has released since then. Yes. So today, in honor of that, we're just gonna talk about some of the things we've been listening to since we've been away. Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:In the current sense. Yes. You wanna start us off?
Brandon Pulliam:Sure. So I'm going to start with what everybody's probably curious about, Sabrina Carpenter's album. It was really good. I feel like it was what guts for Olivia was supposed to be for me. What do you mean by that?
Brandon Pulliam:So I really liked Sour by Olivia Rodrigo, and I'm bringing her up in because there was drama between Sabrina Carpenter, Joshua Bassett, and Olivia Rodrigo, I really liked Sour, but Guts just didn't really stick with me like that. Like, I kinda listened to it, and I haven't really revisited it since.
Brandon Pointe:I definitely feel you. I feel like it was definitely a sonic continuation, but it just sounded really, really similar to Sour. Yeah. It was kind of rehashed. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:I love Short and Sweet. I think it's definitely one of the best pop albums released this year. Yeah. And it was so, like I love marketing. That album was marketed so well and was, like, the perfect rollout.
Brandon Pointe:Yes. And also, like, the music was great.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. Yeah. She's giving she's definitely giving, like, Britney, like, a new version of Britney in the sense of, like, revolutionizing pop music, because I think pop music is really making a comeback. Like, pop music today, that like, when it comes to the modern music scene today, my taste has definitely shifted a lot. I feel like the newer artists aren't really hitting like they were before, but I think pop is kinda the opposite where, like, the pop music is really, like, hitting now.
Brandon Pointe:I think it's because, like, for the past, like, 10 years or so, other genres like hip hop have been Yeah. At the top, and the artists have been leaning more into those genres and not being unapologetically pop. But this year, especially, like, with people who are gonna talk about later, more people have been coming out as, like, these pure pop stars, essentially, I guess. Yeah. But what are some of your favorite songs on short and sweet?
Brandon Pulliam:So, I would say my favorite is probably Juno or not Juno. Juno. I lied. It's Good Graces.
Brandon Pointe:I love both of those songs. I still like Baek Kim. Mhmm. Coincidence was good too. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:She really, like, tore a page from Ariana's book in, like, the vein of making R and B leaning pop music.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. Yeah. I feel like Good Grace is, like, the clear display of
Brandon Pointe:that. For sure.
Brandon Pulliam:But, like, I love the I love the lyrics of Juno, like, how playful it is.
Brandon Pointe:I love how she like, like, the masses love her. Her music is, like, very sexually explicit and, like, suggestive, but, like, it doesn't come off that way. Yeah.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. And, of course, like, please, please, please was amazing. I personally think it's better than espresso, but
Brandon Pointe:It is. You're right. You're right. Yeah. I guess we can jump into another big one, Brad.
Brandon Pointe:Yes. Has been the talk of the town. Yes. It's about time. About time.
Brandon Pointe:Charli XCX is truly, like, probably the queen of hyperpop, I would say. Yes. She deserves her dues.
Brandon Pulliam:She does. I've been riding that wave since 2017 with pop 2.
Brandon Pointe:Same. Exactly.
Brandon Pulliam:I would in that era, I was not, like I was, like, a low key pop fan, but, like, I was open about listening to Charli XCX.
Brandon Pointe:Yes. I think I got on, like, number 1 angel, which I think also came out that year.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:But I love that brat. Like, again, the marketing was so good. Mhmm. And she just really leaned all the way into, like, the simplicity of everything. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:Like, I guess, the party girl image that she's crafted
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. Throughout the years. Yeah. I I loved it. Like, Talk Talk, Apple, Guess is amazing.
Brandon Pointe:Guess is amazing. The remixes are also really good.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. The remixes are very good.
Brandon Pointe:Some of the remixes are better than the original songs to me. Mhmm. Like, Sympathy is a Knife.
Brandon Pulliam:Yes. And then she also has b to b with our girl, Tinashe. Love to see them back together.
Brandon Pointe:I never thought I would see the day that they would collab again, especially since as a Drop That Kitty hater. I love that. B two b.
Brandon Pulliam:I love Drop That Kitty. You know? It is
Brandon Pointe:the most the most, like, 2014 song. Like, it sounds so outdated to me.
Brandon Pulliam:It is very, like, it is very, like, not great, but I love it. It's so catchy. But yeah, she's really doing her thing out
Brandon Pointe:there. She is. I love honestly, my favorite song is probably still 360. Like, that's what's basic, but it's just a jam.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. Yeah. I guess my next person that I've really been listening to or at least getting into is Chapel Roan. Yes, like a more unapologetic pop music.
Brandon Pointe:I was gonna say not the holy trinity of pop music.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. Right. Yeah. Right now, that's that's pretty much the holy trinity in pop music right now. So, of course, you know, you got Hot 2 Go.
Brandon Pulliam:What's that other one? Oh, Good Luck, Babe. I love both of those. And then, super, Red Wine Supernova is in my current rotation right now. Mhmm.
Brandon Pulliam:So we're kinda easing our way into her, but I like I like what I'm hearing.
Brandon Pointe:Yes. I just wanna say I think Hot to Go deserves such a moment. Like, I feel like that should have been as big or bigger than Good Luck, Babe. Yeah. That's just, like, automatic hit to me.
Brandon Pointe:I love, feminon Feminomenon. Okay.
Brandon Pulliam:I don't know.
Brandon Pointe:Wanna say it. That song yeah. Her album is really good. Yeah. She will definitely go, like, I wonder if Lady Gaga route, I think.
Brandon Pointe:Yeah. I think. Develop a cult fan base.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. That's what I'm seeing.
Brandon Pointe:Keeping on, like, people who have come out this year in pop music. So I don't know if y'all know, but I am a Little Mix fan. Like, I love Little Mix. 1 of the members, Jade, started, like, the rollout of solo music this year. Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:And every single song has been incredible. It's only been 3 songs. 1 is Angel of My Dreams, 1 is Midnight Cowboy, and most recently, Fantasy, but I feel like they're all amazing pop songs. Like Okay. What I love about her is that she has such a vision of what she wants to do as an artist.
Brandon Pointe:Mhmm. And, like, she just executes it perfect every time. The videos are amazing too. Okay. So yeah.
Brandon Pulliam:Let's check
Brandon Pointe:her out.
Brandon Pulliam:I have to check her out because I I do like Little Mix too. But I
Brandon Pointe:I feel like Little Mix is, like, one of the only throughout, like, the 2010s was one of the only, like, groups or artists that remain, like, unapologetically pure pop.
Brandon Pulliam:Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:And that's what I appreciate about them.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. Yeah. I haven't really checked out all of their solo music, except for Jesse. No.
Brandon Pointe:The way you listen to the worst one out of everybody
Brandon Pulliam:And I kinda like it too. To voice? Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:Okay. That's interesting. I think you should listen to Leanne. I think you will like Leanne's music.
Brandon Pulliam:It's like Okay. Yeah. I like I think Leanne was my favorite. Leanne and Jade, they were my favorites.
Brandon Pointe:Jade was always my favorite. I I knew she was gonna do great things. Yeah. She is not disappointing. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:I just hope, like because all of them have released solo music, but none of them have released an album because none of their music has, like, really hit hit. Mhmm. And I've just hoped that they'll be able to in the future. Yeah.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. No. I'll definitely have to check that out. So next on my list, I would say, we have to go we have to mention my boy The Weeknd Mhmm. With his, upcoming album.
Brandon Pointe:I knew you were gonna be excited about that.
Brandon Pulliam:Yes. I am extremely excited. However, I'm not a big fan. I love Dancing in the Flames. Mhmm.
Brandon Pulliam:That song is it it gives very much Dawn FM. It does. Pretty much all the eighties pop inspired albums, but I'm not a group big fan of Timeless.
Brandon Pointe:And it's crazy because Timeless is the one that's, like, really popping off too.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. I'm not a big fan.
Brandon Pointe:I'm not a big fan of Timeless either. I love I love when he does, like, Dancing in the Flame, Blinding Lights, Take My Breath as songs, like, very just pure dance pop eighties. Yeah. Is is After Hours Donovan in this? Is that gonna be a trilogy?
Brandon Pulliam:Yes. Yeah. So that's the end of the trilogy.
Brandon Pointe:Okay.
Brandon Pulliam:But I think it's also his last album as The Weeknd.
Brandon Pointe:What do you mean?
Brandon Pulliam:Like, I
Brandon Pointe:Like, he's gonna be, like, able
Brandon Pulliam:after that? If he decides to drop more music, which which hopefully he does, but, to my knowledge
Brandon Pointe:turned into, like, Billy Joel. Like, released music for, like, 10 or 20 years and then just stopped, but, like, everybody still loves him and he tours. Wait. That's that's Billy Joel. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:Billy Joel hasn't released music since, like, the nineties, but, like, he still, like, will sell out arenas.
Brandon Pulliam:Oh, but, I mean, that man is probably, like
Brandon Pointe:well But he he didn't, like, have a very long period. Like, he released music from, like, the seventies to the mid nineties.
Brandon Pulliam:I mean, that's still a long run. I mean, he probably knew, like Mhmm. Because let's be honest. Once artists hit, like, a certain age, they don't really a like, they don't really evolve well with the new sounds. Yeah.
Brandon Pulliam:And I guess he just recognized that he, you know, wasn't gonna evolve with that sound.
Brandon Pointe:Maybe okay. Maybe not Billy Joel. Maybe like a Rihanna. Like, what if you just Okay. Songs of music.
Brandon Pointe:Yeah. But everybody thinks it's, like, premature. That sounds like
Brandon Pulliam:Okay. Yeah. That's a better comparison to me. Mhmm. Gotcha.
Brandon Pointe:Let's see. I enjoyed Glorilla's album a lot.
Brandon Pulliam:Okay. I've heard I've been hearing good things.
Brandon Pointe:It was actually really good. It's it's actually really successful too, which I love for her. I love, How I Look, which is just a song with Megan Thee Stallion.
Brandon Pulliam:Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:And then she has a song called I Ain't Going about how if, one of her male partners ever hit her, like, she would essentially beat them up. And I I love that concept, to go with for a song. Mhmm. I think she just really has found her pocket in music, and she, like, is hitting her prime.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. I guess my next one I wanna kinda mention is, Post Malone dropped an album, F 1 Trillion. There are a couple of songs on there that I really liked. I like this little country era that he's going through. Mhmm.
Brandon Pulliam:I think he just I feel like kinda plus Malone is like a artist who, like, genuinely, like, loves all kinds of music and wants to, like, make all these kinds of music. So I think this is just another step in that. And so he has a song with Dolly Parton that's really good. Have the Heart. This is about, like, someone who's like they don't wanna tell their partner or, like, leave their partner because they just don't have the heart to, like, break their heart.
Brandon Pulliam:So yeah. And then Guy For That featuring Luke Combs, North Carolina native. So We love him. Always gotta yeah. We always have to support him.
Brandon Pointe:I didn't know he released, like, a full country album. I thought it was like Yeah.
Brandon Pulliam:It's a full country album. Wow. Yeah. I think he's touring with a country artist, or I think he has country artists that are touring with him. But yeah.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. It's a full full album.
Brandon Pointe:Yes. Interesting. I might have to check that out. I always felt like he really fit the aesthetic vibe of country, but not like Yeah. The sonic side, I guess.
Brandon Pointe:Yeah. Another person I've been really getting into Kylie Minogue lately. She released the album called Attention 2. It's a sequel to a album called Attention she released last year, and I feel like it's really good. She's she's really well regarded outside the US, but she never really made it big here except for, like, a couple songs.
Brandon Pointe:And, yeah, I just feel like she makes good pop music.
Brandon Pulliam:Okay. Yeah. I know of her, but I'm not super familiar with her music aside from, like, the one that everybody knows. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:She's like it's crazy to see, like, her in other countries where she's regarded as, like, this legend where you hear, like, most people wouldn't know her name. I feel like that's so weird.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. That's that's how it is for some people. Yeah. The next first one I would like to mention is Larry June. So if you don't know, he's like a West Coast rapper, and he what I really like about him is he raps about more positive things, like, how can I put this?
Brandon Pulliam:Like, bettering yourself, like, especially, like, for black men and, things like that. So he dropped an album this year called Doing It For Me, and there are a couple of songs on there that I really like. A Little While and 3 Piece, those are my go tos
Brandon Pointe:at the moment. Is 3 Piece about chicken?
Brandon Pulliam:No. Okay. I thought it
Brandon Pointe:was about chicken at first too, but I don't think it's about chicken. I'm gonna save that. I've been looking for, like, more just rappers with diverse sounds. I
Brandon Pulliam:feel like
Brandon Pointe:rap is really not doing it for me lately.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. He has a very West Coast sound, so it's very, like, chill Mhmm. Chill, rap music. West Coast is
Brandon Pointe:really having its moment this year, I feel like. Yeah. Mhmm. Like, West Coast and the South. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:I'm trying to look for a hip hop artist. I I haven't really been listening to any.
Brandon Pulliam:I know. Hip hop is it's definitely falling down my list of favorite genres, I hate to say. We just
Brandon Pointe:need somebody to shake it up. Yeah. I'll go with r and b. Raeven Linne, I've talked about her multiple times. She released a album called Birds Eye.
Brandon Pointe:Just fabulous music. Just Mhmm. Fabulous music. I always describe her as, like, a cross between Billie Eilish, Brandy, and Minnie Riperton. Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:Like, a very unique, like, angelic voice. And she also writes about things that are kinda well, she writes about, like, love and relationships and stuff, but in a a unconventional way.
Brandon Pulliam:Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:And, like, when you listen to her music, it'll take you, like, a good 4 or 5 times to really understand what the song is about Mhmm. Just to, like, process everything. But I love her songs, One Wish, which features Childish Gambino, and then a song called Genius as well. Those are my favorites. Okay.
Brandon Pointe:Nice.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. I'll definitely have to check it out because I've heard a couple of her songs, and I I like them. So
Brandon Pointe:She like she runs with, like, the TDE alternative R and B like Steve Lacy
Brandon Pulliam:in the world. Odd Future. Yeah. Yeah. So the next person I'm a shout out here is, my boy Leon Thomas.
Brandon Pulliam:If you don't know him, he was on Victorious. He played Andre, but he makes, like, R and B music now. And he released his I'm pretty sure this I don't know if this is if he considers this to be his debut album, but he released an album called Mutt, which the song Mutt, the self the title track was amazing. It's top tier. And then another song I've really been jamming to from the album lately is Safe Place.
Brandon Pulliam:I love the sampling on it. It's just very, like, very seventies to me. Mhmm. So I I definitely feel like he is a breath of fresh air in the male r and b scene.
Brandon Pointe:For sure. Mhmm. I need to listen to that meaning to. When I tell you, I played, his cover of Until the End of Time with Coco Jones out last year. Like, it was one of my top listening songs.
Brandon Pointe:Keeping on, like, male R and B ish, Khalid also released an album called Sincere. Mhmm. It makes me sad that Khalid doesn't get the shine that he used to, but this album is really, really good. Really? And I think he does a really good job of blending r and b with other genres, like pop Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:More alternative, rock ish, almost. Yeah. My favorites on here on this side are the title track and then a song called Everything We See. I don't know. Like, I literally I don't even listen to Khalid like that.
Brandon Pointe:This album cover is beautiful, so I've seen it on, like, a playlist. And I was like, who is this in this album cover? And I was like, that's Khalid? Because he looks a little bit different now. Yeah.
Brandon Pulliam:He does look a little different now.
Brandon Pointe:Just more mature. Yeah. And I listened to it. It was great. I listened to the whole thing.
Brandon Pointe:I took a road trip to Florida this year Mhmm. And I listened to the whole thing on the way.
Brandon Pulliam:Okay. Nice. Yeah. I'll definitely have to check it out because I I like Khaleed's music, but I haven't really dove into his new album, so I'll definitely check it out. The next thing on my list would have to be I have to talk about Kehlani.
Brandon Pulliam:So she drops an album, and she also dropped I guess it's a mixtape, it would kinda be. So the album, Crash, came out in June. I wasn't the biggest fan of it.
Brandon Pointe:I don't think she was the biggest fan of it.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. I do like what she was trying to do. I feel like she was trying to experiment with many different sounds, but outside of, like, mainly, like, the singles, it just didn't really hit for me like that.
Brandon Pointe:Yeah. I was looking for Watercrash. I think what really did it for me or didn't do it for me is, like, the vocal production. Mhmm. She usually goes for, like, a more acoustic, like she has a really natural voice to where it sounds like she has auto tune in her voice already.
Brandon Pointe:Mhmm. I think this album added a lot of reverb and, like, unnecessary production to make it sound more industrial Yeah. Like, futuristic or something. But I love or I like While We Wait 2 a lot more than Crash,
Brandon Pulliam:which she
Brandon Pointe:kinda went back to.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. It was, yeah, it was very much more it was it was like we kinda fell off the track for a second, but then we're back on the track with While We Wait 2. So, No Better from While We Wait 2 was, one of my favorites featuring Lil Moe and Vince Staple Staples, and then When He's Not There, featuring Lucky Day.
Brandon Pointe:I love
Brandon Pulliam:that song. Yeah. Yeah. It was it was amazing project. Definitely back to the old Kehlani, so we're good.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:Speaking of Kehlani, I wanna go see her on, I wanted to go see her on the tour, but I didn't. But Flo was opening for her. Mhmm. And Flo has released 3 really good singles this year.
Brandon Pulliam:Don't they have an album out now?
Brandon Pointe:The album's coming out next month. Oh, okay. Which is, like, weird because I'm like, how are y'all gonna promote the album when you're on tour? But, anyway, Check was a song that they released, like, since we've been gone. Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:And I played that song out. That that was one of my songs of the summer. It's very very girly nineties Mhmm. Pop, R and B track.
Brandon Pulliam:Okay. Just a
Brandon Pointe:classic.
Brandon Pulliam:Nice. Nice. Yeah. I'll definitely I still haven't gotten into flow.
Brandon Pointe:I feel like you would love flow, but you need to get in. I know. I know.
Brandon Pulliam:It's my goal. I'm a get I'm a get into them because I'm looking for new stuff to add to my playlist. So, the next group I kinda want to shout out, it's it's this, like, alternative rap slash rock group.
Brandon Pointe:Mhmm.
Brandon Pulliam:It's Joey, Valance and Bray, and they had this song called The Baddest that I really loved. It was very much Clubbanger from, like, the early 2010s with a modern, twist to it. Yeah. It was just very
Brandon Pointe:Wait. Featuring Ayesha Erotica?
Brandon Pulliam:I think that's the remix of it.
Brandon Pointe:Okay.
Brandon Pulliam:I'm not I haven't heard the remix. I've just heard the regular version.
Brandon Pointe:Interesting. I'm looking at their album now. But yeah. I'm a definitely get into them. That sounds that sounds like what I was saying, like, hip hop needs something different.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. And they're kinda I've seen, like, them being compared to the Beastie Boys, which I could kinda see that. They definitely They definitely have that kind of vibe.
Brandon Pointe:I did listen to Trouble in Paradise, which was Khloe's album that she surprise released Okay. How was that? Beginning of the summer. I was indifferent about the album as a whole, but the songs that I liked, I really, really loved. Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:The song with Halle Want Me, Redemption, temporarily single Mhmm. And then the the single Boy Buy, I really liked as well. Okay. I just think the reason that it did it performed the the way it did is a whole another conversation, but I think she needs to collab with someone who can bring her, like, a signature sound. Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:This album was very, like, island Okay. Inspired. Almost Afrobeats in a way, but, like, very tropical. She made it in Saint Lucia. Mhmm.
Brandon Pointe:I'm like, that's a good sound, but it's not necessarily distinguishable from anybody else, and it's not gonna, like, pop off. Mhmm. I also liked Halle's single Because I Love You. Okay. I haven't heard that one either.
Brandon Pointe:It's good. I like it more than In Your Hands. Okay. Gotcha.
Brandon Pulliam:I have to check it out because I haven't really I saw that she dropped the album, but I didn't really, like, get into it.
Brandon Pointe:Mhmm. Halle wrote Because I Love You with Rae, and you can definitely tell. Like, you can hear her.
Brandon Pulliam:Okay. Yeah. Which is another person that's getting a lot of attention, but I was on the wave in 2018.
Brandon Pointe:Oh, 2018. Okay. I was on the wave in 2016, but for, like, one song Yeah. When she did, You Don't Know Me?
Brandon Pulliam:Oh, I think I know
Brandon Pointe:that one. Mhmm. That was on my middle school playlist, Heavy. Oh, okay. I didn't hear of her again until, like, 2021.
Brandon Pulliam:Mine was Cigarette with, Mabel and Stephland on.
Brandon Pointe:Mhmm.
Brandon Pulliam:And then she had a a friend, she had a song called Friends, which was really catchy too, and then Decline, which sampled Always on Time by Ja Rule in the show. I think I've
Brandon Pointe:heard it
Brandon Pulliam:before. Yeah, you probably heard it, but yeah, I was on the, that wave as well before people jumped on the bandwagon.
Brandon Pointe:And look at her now.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. Goodness.
Brandon Pointe:Six time Brit winner.
Brandon Pulliam:Yes. We love that for her. So I guess for my on my end to kind of round it out, I'm gonna mention Die With A Smile by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars. I think this was a great pairing and it's something I think that really works for both of them as, like, Bruno Mars kinda is more of like that balladeer. Like, that's more his signature department.
Brandon Pulliam:And also with Lady Gaga doing, like, jazz and stuff, not that this is a jazz song, but, like, showing off more a raw vocal talent. I think this was a really good duet, and of course, it has, like, a very, like, beautiful message as well. So definitely, definitely a great song to check out, and hopefully, it's paying off those casino debts. I was
Brandon Pointe:gonna say, one thing Bruno needed is a hit, like and one thing he's gonna make is a hit.
Brandon Pulliam:That's very true too. I don't think I think it's very hard for him not to make a hit.
Brandon Pointe:He just knows how to do it and, like, he's gonna hopefully, he can make that money back because that was, like, tens of 1,000,000 of dollars that he was in debt. Yeah. He's gonna go grab me for sure at least.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. I think so. I hope so.
Brandon Pointe:I'm gonna round mine out with an artist called Alice Chater. She's more of a pop artist. I think she's British, but I don't know. Mhmm. That does that scare you, like, when you you don't know, like, what somebody's ethnicity is?
Brandon Pointe:I mean, I'm curious,
Brandon Pulliam:but then
Brandon Pointe:It comes to, like, British people. I don't know that.
Brandon Pulliam:I mean, sometimes it can be ambiguous.
Brandon Pointe:It gives me uncanny valley, like, when you see an actor, like somebody famous, and you find out they're British, and you're like, what? Oh, yeah. But, she's been around for a while, and she kinda took a hiatus, but she came up with 2 songs. 1 is called Boyfriend and then the other is called Come Alive and they're both very, like, almost in the vein of, like, a Yes, I am. Like, very nineties ballroom pop.
Brandon Pointe:And I really just enjoy that sound. Like, I love Yes, and. Mhmm. I know the song didn't receive great reception.
Brandon Pulliam:I love Yes, and. That's probably the one song I love off
Brandon Pointe:of that. Exactly.
Brandon Pulliam:Which that's another that's another story for another day.
Brandon Pointe:We love Ariana. Yeah. No. We still love you. Yeah.
Brandon Pointe:I I don't know. I just like that sound. I feel like I want more people to do that sound. It's just very fun.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. You
Brandon Pointe:know? Yeah. But, yeah, that's it for me as well.
Brandon Pulliam:Yeah. So since we decided to kinda tell you what we've been listening to lately, I mean, you know, you kinda already know what's in our ear, so we're gonna bypass that segment this time, unfortunately.
Brandon Pointe:Womp womp. And we'll be back next episode, though.
