Why You Should Check Out Billie’s Amazing Album “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?”
October 22, 2019
So you probably have heard the new, very popular POP/R&B album called, “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” by Billie Eilish. 17-year-old, Billie Eilish started her music career back in 2015 when she was about 13 years old, but she became absolutely viral in 2019 when her album “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” released in March. Eilish has not only became an icon for teenage boys and girls everywhere, but a known pop star with 40 million Instagram followers, sold-out shows worldwide, a modeling contract, and couch time with Ellen DeGeneres. The young teen has explored pop, trap and even EMD.
Eilish’s creepy aesthetic feel so removed from the POP ’norms’, it helps distance her from the music industry’s which draws teenagers to her as an idol. The young star from Los Angeles, who is always sporting baggy, androgynous clothes, and her taste for tomboy aesthetic draws attention to her specifically. Rolling Stones said, ”Eilish’s roguish pop has led to a double life on the male-heavy rock and alternative charts.” Also, she said she endured recurring night terrors while recording the album, Rolling Stones claimed she said she saw “recalling visions, some real and some imagined, of abductions, severed heads, school shootings and Los Angeles in flames.” When she poses the question, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? it’s a personal one: “to make peace with the twisted, dystopian Gotham that’s become her reality, where there is no Batman to save her, Eilish writes herself into characters who toe the line between good-bad and cartoonish evil.”
Therefore, I give her album a 7 out of 10, due to her showing her spunky personality and some true feelings and opinions through this new album. I recommend if you like POP and EMD, you give this album a listen.
