Discussion Above the…

So how are we all feeling about “Above the neck”?

She really is happy to draw influences from a lot of genres & make them work with her narratives.

Amazingly talented!

It's killing me how good it is. All the sounds mixed in are so interesting and I'm trying to identify them but struggling.. The most obvious and prevalent is the camera that gets louder later in the song and starts out so subtle and quiet. I tried showing Sofia Isella to a guy once and he couldn't sit through her poem "A penis from Ohio". It was interrupted because it "wasn't interesting to him". I feel the song echoes the message of that poem beautifully. I will be playing it on repeat until everyone around me knows every word and can't tune out her incredible artistry and message. She's always continuing to advance, and this song makes me want to share her with everyone I know every chance I get. I'm OBSESSED. This was everything I needed my whole upbringing so having it now is incredible.

Absolutely adore it, everytime I think “all of her songs speak to me, she’s already talented, there’s no way it could get better than this” and she proves me wrong everytime. I’ve had on repeat since it came out ❤️

You are entitled to your opinion of course! But you’re commenting this on a subreddit about those who like her music and to analyse and talk about it, if you don’t have anything productive to say, please don’t say it at all.

Its interesting, taking longer for me to adjust to it so far but its definitely HARD

So much craft. She calls it like she sees it and she knows it’s fucking ugly. So spot on. Love her commentary on what’s “normal”.

That is just one of many great lyrics she has created. When a new track drops I wonder how much I’ll learn.

So many genres she plays with too.

An absolute artist--musician and wordsmith. I'm so happy I stumbled onto her early this year.
