    Well yeah. There’s certain people or topics that he should address. But just drawing names out of a hat and dissing people at this stage in his career is pointless and just odd… it worked back then great. But times have changed.

    How is Framed on Revival? Makes no sense. It’s my favorite song on Revival but definitely does not belong with the majority of those songs.

    “Having creepy visions of whiskey drinking
    And envisioning sneaking into where Christie Brinkley dwells
    I know this is risky thinking but I wanna stick her like she's decals
    But when murdering females
    Better pay attention to these details or you could be derailed
    Better wear at least three layers of clothing or be in jail
    If you get scratched because your DNA'll
    Be all up under her fingernails”

    f---ing insane lyricism

    I remember reading a interview a long time ago. Em said Framed was the first song that he recorded for Revival. He changed the direction of the project later.

    I’ve always said revival wasn’t what it was originally supposed to be. Something weird had to have happened. The whole medication theme of that promotion came to a complete hault when Trevor announced the album.

    Because he was just trying to pander to every type of fan with every style... the absolute worst artistic choice ever. The opposite of integrity. Pandering. And trying to be everything for everyone. Awful idea.

    I think it's obvious what happened. And I don't think it was medically themed, although probably somewhat, I know the marketing was around that, but, also religious ('Believe'... 'Walk on Water'... 'Arose')...

    Anyway I think those three tracks were original intended. They sound of the same ilk to me, like made for the same album/sound/tones...

    I think the reaction to the 'No Favors' verse caused him to rush record a bunch of s--- trying to appease Recovery / MMLP2 type s---.

    s--- like 'Heat' (MMLP2ish/So Far), Nowhere Fast etc. I don't think were originally there. N thas prolly why the writing is so awful. He prolly made them fast in a last minute re-working of the album.

    I bet the original was a lot better. But he f----- it up again by being a p---- instead of just sticking to his artistic guns. Just like ditching Relapse 2 cause some people didn't like it. Who gives a f---. Stand by what you fkn think is good. He needs to get bigger balls.

    Revival, as we heard it, was because of Paul. The end, I guess.

    yeah it's confirmed too from interviews.

    any s-----y song or cheap hit attempt... when they've talked about it, always starts with 'so Paul brought me this...'

    f---ing corrupting Em and just keeping him as a pop machine.

    He’s a grown man though, he has his own agency. He deserves the blame.
