yeah, personally i love it! but the production just feels...lazy? i don´t know, it´s like Sexin U. it´s a good pop song, but it needs improvements (in SU´s case, more bass). i feel they could´ve done more to make it really stand out, you know?

The production is definitely very one dimensional. To be fair, I'm pretty sure it's not actually the "final album version" like the file was labeled when it leaked. It's still a demo. But there's definitely a very, very strong pop song in there somewhere, it just needs fleshed out a bit.

Be careful what you download. Whoever is making these garbage edits may lace them with some kinda virus. Idk. Sus AF. Especially the file extension and shit.

true, but i know i couldn´t do something like this. and it sounds really like ariana.

 if anything, i find this impressive!

Agreed, neither could I (edit the vocals that way). I feel like knowing music theory and having an ear for this is pretty much a requirement. Whoever made those edits had to painstakingly modify every note and make sure the pitch is correct to make it all seem like Taylor and Ariana are singing the songs. I would not be able to pull this off in a billion years lol.

The edit files were .m4a but those are still legit audio files and as far as I know you can't just inject a virus into legit file extensions, hence why so many sketchy websites offering free downloads of songs usually link to files that look like this:

Bonnie_McKee_-_Thorns.mp3.exe

It's the oldest trick known to man. NEVER download and run an executable file that's disguised as something else.

I understand that. The point I’m getting across is that the same person is doing sketchy and sus things and everyone’s eating it up. it’s some sociopathic attention grabbing behavior that I’m still trying to understand.

No offence to Ariana "Cinammon" Grande "Latte", but I think she's a doughnut licking cunt.

i am CRYING LAUGHING at the name change.

but yeah, that situation was disgusting.

 

SLIGHTLY DEFENDING HER:

but besides that, she´s never been really problematic or rude? like i´ve heard rumors of her behavior, but they were always disproven by people close to her. the black fishing rumors never really caught my attention, due to the pictures always being over-edited, and her always having a slight tan since nickelodeon.

 

NOW....

the only things that had me in doubt about about her (besides the donut situation, of course) is when she immediately broke up with Mac Miller and not even 5 days later, starts dating Pete Davidson. from the minute that situation played out, it was weird to me. and  Mac was supposed to be cool with all of this?? (he ended up passing due to OD the same year in September,  causing Pete and Ariana to break up, and ariana got blamed for his OD due to the whole pete situation. the comments were VICIOUS). 

oh, and she got engaged to Pete after the few days of them dating (or a week? i remember it was so quick)....again, mac was supposed to be okay with this.....okay. luckily, he had class and congratulated ariana, before his passing.

And the situation that really turned me off of Ariana, was when she and her manager, Scooter Braun (that´s enough to say, all in all.) got her fellow fans (dubbed as Arianators) to attack her former co-star, Victoria Justice, and blame victoria for the show they were in being cancelled. girl...that´s up to the network, not some her. and might i add, Victoria´s upcoming (and damaged) career was never the same. they´ve both supported each other recently, but she hasn´t ONCE even apologized to victoria about the situation.

 

so all in all (i´m sorry y´all, i´m aware this was a whole essay):

she´s nice in person, but behind closed doors, she´s always doing shady shit. if the donut situation wasn´t recorded, it would´ve automatically been passed off as a another rumor to ¨ruin ari´s career¨. she needs to do better. 

 

side note -- i love her old work (everything after Dangerous Woman can fuck off), but this is all just MY opinion, as a witness in both situations, seeing how it played out publicly. no hate to her.

@LVD

https://onlyfiles.io/f/cbe77fc6ab94432ba590856d27d4394a can you reupload this?

it was from your reply:

̈Back in around 2012, she had a Purevolume account which offered a free direct download of the following songs:

Thunder, Deja Vu, Head On and Love Spell

They're 192kbps but as far as sound quality goes, it's the best you'll find. ̈

i found it!! these are where all these fake ass ¨leaks¨ have been coming from.

How do I feel about it? It slayed my existence, that's what happened. I put it on my version of the Epic record and named it Sayonara (Bonnie's Version)

Honestly, I wouldn't even mind them making these fake demos, it's the fact they are uploading them with misleading titles and giving everyone heart attacks at the thought more Bonnie is leaking that annoys me

Whoa!! Didn't expect such a dissertation on the topic of Ms. Grande 

You raised some great points, but first, is the hunk in your avie Mac Miller?  And also, love me some Carly Rae Jepsen, your taste is very refined if I may say.

Now, I've never really paid much attention to the drama around the donut licking, but yeah, the overtanning that curiously enough coincided with her rise to musical stardom is super sus. And what is she now? Korean? She ditched the tan and now she has monolids and rocks the Kpop girl aesthetic 

Also, from what I've heard, Jennette McCurdy apparently isn't friends with Ariana and even went as far as to spoof her in her What's Next for Sarah? web series:
