Grimes/Claire Boucher thread

Perhaps too good. Was that lip sync?

It wasn't lip synced but the live vocals are mostly buried under layers of prerecorded stuff and even the live guitar is super-low in the mix. Makes the performance toothless and boring. Whoever said this sounded like Reznor was otm. This would fit in well on the Fragile and I say that as a good thing.

does that song remind anyone else of money money money? like the pre-chorus ‘in my dreams i have a plan’ bit?

a cross between that and ‘enter the ninja’ maybe?

oh no, now i’m hearing ‘la isla bonita’

Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
We appreciate power
We appreciate power

Last night I dreamt of electric sheep

-oh

Somebody once told me
The world is gonna roll me
We appreciate power
We appreciate power

merry xmas mfers! time for this legendary jam once again

Grimes was dating Musk at the time he sent the tweet, and she recently accompanied the Tesla CEO on a trip to China. Banks has said she was staying at one of Musk's Los Angeles properties soon after he posted the tweet, and she told Business Insider she saw Musk "scrounging for investors" when she stayed at his house.

"Ms. Boucher and Ms. Banks were in close contact with Mr. Musk before and after the tweet and are believed to be in possession of relevant evidence concerning Mr. Musk's motives," Apton told Business Insider earlier in January.

ah man, what's ol' grimey got herself mixed up in

I know people working for the plaintiffs' firm in that case and almost worked there. Missed probably my only chance to take Grimes's deposition I guess.

Grimes: corporate criminal.

Man, I hope this doesn't interrupt progress on her fantasy novel.

Grimes: fantasy novelist, venture capitalist, corporate criminal.

I also heard she released an album of instrumental keyboard music several years back.

don't forget hentai aficionado

whom amongst us

"atleast I'm not fat."

DENTAL PLAN!

"atleast I'm not fat."

Lisa needs braces!

"atleast I'm not fat."

jesus christ bad looks all around

"sweet narc dreams" is pretty good.

"brittleboned methhead" pretty good barb

she's not responsible for stuff elon did with his businesses.

She is responsible for gross fat-shaming tho

jeez I had to go to google to figure out wtf you guys are reacting to

grimes needs to get better at comebacks if that was her texting

yeah i just googled that as well. not a great look for grimes but also they're private messaging and they're super pissed at each other.

then she apologizes.

azealia apparently is taunting grimes saying her ex boyfriend wasn't attracted to her bc she is too skinny and then saying elon wants to get with her instead. bad behavior imo.

the thing is, there are so few good things in american mainstream culture now, but i really love grimes and i don't want that taken away from me

i know she is canadian and more precisely from a separate black magick cybernetic dimension, but the point stands

like this stuff is all time

my opinions are principled and impartial

grimes losing her cool and saying dumb things via private text to a bigoted lunatic troll is nbd to me.

yeah, same. she should have never been involved with musk or banks in the first place but c'est la vie

also looks like Banks “body-shames” her first, fwiw. (2 wrongs don’t make a right, etc.)

umm, duh

banks is a complete loose cannon

the whole conversation was banks taunting grimes bc musk dumped her

(yeah I’m agreeing w/you)

gotcha.

yeah it's super odd that banks would publish these texts as if they reflected well on her. unusual person.

It’s specially funny considering this tweet months before:

grateful y'all r complimenting me 🖤🖤^_^ but i wanna suggest we decide here and now that grimes-verse has no room 4 the glorification of thinness and the suggestion that being fat (or any body type) isn't as cool/beautiful etc. thoughtsz?i distrust skinny as a metaphor for good

— ༺GRIMES༻ (@Grimezsz) February 1, 2018

i think that's her real attitude. she apologizes to banks in the midst of the text exchange, while banks is still attacking her for being too skinny.

idc abt beef but i cannot believe how lame these messages are

oh
my
GOD

WHO GIVES A SHIT

xxp i think that loving and accepting jews is mel gibson's real attitude. i think that deference to african americans is michael richards's real attitude. they both said so after the fact! that's how you know it's real http://i64.tinypic.com/sb21s8.png

what's important is that treesh has rationalized this to the point where he can still like grimes

that's why we're all here

Truth is she took the Azealia Banks bait when she should’ve known better.

Claire doesn’t give me a mean-spirited vibe in the way Banks or Musk do... hope she’s surrounded by less toxic people nowadays.

Tbh I find her reaction pretty tame compared to the things Banks was writing to her.

I don't care what artists say in private correspondence. or at all. just gimme the tunes, play the show. I don't need artists vetted on a morality test.
is this a controversial opinion???? I truly don't give a shit
