    Would this have changed anyone’s sentiment ahead of Revival’s release?

    No. The only thing that needs to happen with WOW is to remove Beyonce.

    They originally wanted Adele on the track. You think this could’ve raised its profile?

    Didn't know that. I would have much preferred that, yes. But one of the biggest issues with the whole album was the huge a-list celebrity hooks.

    Agreed, wish he did more of his own. Anyway, he needed to do that to get to where he is now...

    I still think Revival was meant to be something entirely different. Even the branding from that Trevor crap, Dr Dre etc it was all different. Also feel like nobody will ever know.

    It sucks because Wow then Believe is one of the best openings to an Em album in his entire career, then the rest of the album goes to s---. When I first heard those 2 songs first I thought it was about to be a masterpiece, I was very wrong.

    Although I must add, Guts Over Fear is one of my favorite songs by him in the last decade.

    Yeah I reread, it would have probably gotten me hyped, but WOW is incredibly well written but it sounds petty

    i think WOW, believe and chloraseptic was a great 3 track run. i think framed, and in your head are dope too. rest of the album i dont pay much. untouchable has a lot of dope lines too, the first beat just f---s it up

    I love Walk On Water weirdly. It was a very unexpected single and start to the album but it really grew on me.
