If you haven't completely succumbed to the magic of Addison Rae's Diet Pepsi, I guarantee you will soon. Same goes for the (in my opinion) underrated C,XOXO-- between I LUV IT, B.O.A.T, June Gloom, Godspeed, and Chanel No. 5, there are plenty of songs that have singlehandedly put Camila Cabello on the map for me. Both these artists have taken a risk and ooo wee has it paid off! Would love your thoughts. CHAPTERS:0:00 - Addison Rae’s Diet Pepsi is a gamechanger1:50 - Addison Rae’s reinvention and the power of Charli XCX4:00 - Addison Rae is the new Troye Sivan5:30 - A student of pop stardom6:30 - Tumblrfication and poptimism 7:45 - Why C,XOXO feels real 10:19 - The importance of risk in art11:10 - Fighting to maintain a perspective Listen to Kattle Considerations on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11FX5G68eYPdSlnrZYq7To?si=c10ebb89d0a842ff Find me elsewhere: https://linktr.ee/katebrunotts Spotify (My Music): https://open.spotify.com/artist/1vV2HAeSNkp97JK2tPpEoN?si=vjGI6UlqSMa0G8ReQieLeQ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katebrunotts/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@katebrunottsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-brunotts-86bb78188/
Remi Wolf is THE funk pop lord of our generation if I do say so myself. "Big Ideas" just came out and I cannot help but succumb to the power of Cinderella, Soup, Pitiful and the rest of it! I cannot believe I neglected to talk about "Street You Live On" but wow what a banger. Lots of grooves that are pure fun but Remi's discography also has plenty of vibrant songs to make the pain of life a bit more bearable. I love to dance and also not feel alone. Woohoo!
Halsey just announced "The Great Impersonator" and oooh I am excited! "If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power" definitely deserves more credit than it has and so here I am. With tracks like "I am not a woman, I'm a God" you simply cannot lose.
I had a lovely but indeed, brutal, conversation about music, art, monetization and the challenges that come with it alongside the amazing @Bandsplaining . We talk about how the value of music has decreased, longevity as an artist, and the future of curation and consumption. Thank you so much to Bandsplaining for hopping on and sharing his insights!
Dora Jar just announced her debut album "No Way To Relax When You Are On Fire" and I am very excited! Between Polly, Bump, Puppet, Timelapse, Scab Song, Tiger Face, and essentially the rest of her discography I am a certified fan-- and you can too. Inventive, playful, curious music that pushes the envelope while still remaining accessible and inspiring. What a boon.

2:20 - Whimsical and wonderful

If I'm looking for the truth, I subconsciously add Reddit to my search. Between an entire subgenera of secondary media sharing Reddit stories, the power of fandom, and Reddit's general staying power due to its simplistic design and implied animosity I think it is fascinating outlier in social media. Search engine optimization is shifting to AIO and therefore so does the way we connect and express vulnerability online yada yada what do you think?
As more of us become creators and being online become more ubiquitous, I'm kind of worried about the effectiveness of rage baiting and how we reward certain behaviors algorithmically. Authenticity in entertainment has always been interesting, but especially so when we're all aware a couple of million views could be the block between you and money.
HAPPY BRAT DAY TO ALL THOSE WHO CELEBRATE! Von Dutch + Club Classics are absolutely on repeat, 360 is the daily prayer-- I finally have succumbed to the world of CharliXCX and wow this album has very much sold me-- Charli occupies a unique space in the pop landscape where she has larger, mainstream leverage while still maintaining her native sense of experimentation.
While some may feel left out of the music, I think her strength lies in creating music for a very specific audience, using her well-earned respect to bring up unseen voices along the way.

1:12 - Does exclusivity have to be a bad thing?
2:10 - Charli's unique position in pop
4:20 - The critique of the 360 music video and overall Brat rollout
5:30 - Is validity only earned through exposure?
6:39 - Not everything is meant for you
9:08 - Charli and the art of curation
11:11 - Make the pedestal personal
13:15 - Exclusive vs. exclusionary
15:00 - Bringing back the mysticism of pop
