could have this album on loop for any situation. I was late getting around to it, but glad I didn’t avoid it in the end!

If you only know Doja Cat from her hit singles, viral TikTok sounds, and trollish online antics, you might be surprised to learn that she had a deep career on Soundcloud long before she would first boldly declare "bitch, I'm a cow".
As a teenager, Doja would scour YouTube for songs to turn into beats and vocalize over. One such song was Com Truise's Brokendate, which forms the foundation of 4 morant (better luck next time), uploaded to Soundcloud in 2012 when Doja was only 16 or 17 years old. She eventually took down the song, and generally refuses to acknowledge it (likely due to the very personal lyrics), but it recently had an official release under Com Truise (to whom she did not give credit in her initial upload).
As for why I recommend it: this song is just perfect for those late nights when you're in that dissonant state of hurting deeply while being too apathetic to acknowledge or do anything about it. You feel stuck and a bit impulsive and very alone. Damn, no one gets it. Then in a sudden moment of clarity, emotion comes spilling over you. I cry from my eyes to my feet, stairs to the street to the gutters to the seas. You sit in that feeling for a while, but then it washes away, and you're left in your habitual resignation. Sigh... better luck next time. Better luck next time.

Just found the tiktok version of their song, I Could Be A Florist, and it’s so far such a good album! I could be super late on this though, just think it’ll be my album for tomorrow!

stumbled upon it a few years back when I was working in London. It was a rainy day and hardly any customers came in on this particular Sunday. Only time I every used Spotify was at work and they came up in suggested ‘artists‘. The mood of it is all over the place which is why it probably resonated with me.
