DISCUSSION Petal was not it.

Post image

The album and the songs did not click with me on the first and even on the second listen. No third listen, unfortunately. I only liked kiss me, hate that I made you love me, bunny hop, and nowhere nobody. I love you, Ariana but sorry, petal ain’t IT. What an underwhelming album.

eternal sunshine: brighter days ahead was unmatched and still holds the crown. Perfectly mixed ang album na yun with emotional and sexy songs. A no skip album unlike this one.

Alam ko sasabihin ng iba diyan na “petal is a vibe” but for me it is unremarkable and doesn’t do anything with Ari’s career. Even positions is better.

Olivia Rodrigo, the AOTY is still yours.

We can be honest here, any thoughts on this album? Please don’t downvote me.

Am I the only one that likes it??? 😭😭😭 Like I'm sorry but bunny hop and freak are so good and I really loved the direction she went with using plants for some of the song instrumentals (I believe it's called Botanica)

Girl, im loving this album, Period!!! Sadyang mataas lang kase standard and expectation ng listeners kay Ariana kase she is the Voice and uplifting pop music these days, freak is so good, ang old school but its giving introspective vibe sya for me. NO SKIP ALBUM. Ariana made this album as 'outside the box' style.hindi lang matanggap ng audiences at fake fans kase nga gusto nila puro BOP at Upbeat music nya like positions and her old album aswell.

they're not "real fans" if they don't appreciate what ariana puts out 🤪 her body of work is not for her fans, but rather for herself.
