I remember Jenna Marbles made a video once where she was like "I don't know if I love Grimes or hate Grimes, but I think I'm on the side of loving Grimes!!" and honestly there was never a more relatable statement made. I loved these videos and being reminded of this sentiment all over again.
@@BorisG13 I feel like I'm crazy now, I swear it happened. I was trying to look up what video it was from, like I thought she had a video that was all about Grimes but now I'm not sure if it was deleted or never existed.
i had no idea world princess ptii was a INTERLUDE to begin with. thank god she expanded it because to this day it’s one of my favorite songs and mvs from her
the "nanananana" sample on 4aem is actually a sample from a bollywood song called Deewani Mastani (beautiful song btww) && not Grimes herself singing :) it's clear that her vocals on Humans Become Machines is inspired by it though
What is wrong with this Grimes person besides everything. She is downright homely her personality is haughty me only type then looks nothing can fix that. Something is missing, wrong, lacking but trying by manufacturing an AI.
art angels isn't even my favorite grimes record but the art angels era!!!!! omg what an era. i totally relate to all the lil comments about missing it. thank you so much for a part 2!
I don't think I've ever paused a RUclips video more times than this one ever in my fkn life! Took me 2hrs+ to get through. That said, can't wait for part 3!
@@marsrsy unfortunately, i with a buttload of overlapping neuroemergent labels found it frustrating as all heck out to have to skip back and read and go forward and be interrupted and stop & also I can't do a million other things with it playing in the background AND ALSO MY EYES HURT FROM TRYING TO READ SO FAST however I'm not trying to force you to make things in a style you wouldn't watch yourself or to feel pressured to change your style. I love love love the hyperpacked info overload and I also love the fast pace but like.. it's so fast. I feel queasy (not really, eyestrain'd maybe). for me personally I would only ask that things stay on the screen long enough that i don't have to actually skip BACK to pause on it 😭. I totally respect tha tyou and the target audience for this style of vid have your own thang! it's so funny with adhd and autism some things have this hyper specific overlap and sometimes they're black n white polar opposites. i have this similar issue with my partner where we'll be watching a lip sync for your life and they'll be like "THEY CUT THAT, LOOK, THE PREVIOUS SHOT THE OTHER PERSON WAS DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT THEY'RE NOT SHOWING IT PROPERLY" and I'll be like "I CAN'T SEE WHAT A SINGLE PERSON IS EVEN DOING" so yah thanks for coming to my ted talk, it really helps me to infodump very specifically about how i feel while also trying to communicate i am complaining, but in a respectful way. I'll show myself out now lol
Girl you're going to have to add more to the Poppy/Grimes lore because right now, at this current second (08/07/23 - 11:41am here), they are having a childish back and forth online.
i totally get you struggling with the love for her art and also her as a person. tbh your first iceberg video reignited my love for grimes music and i feel so tooooorn
As a former Poppy fan, I am still sad about the whole thing, because I love We Appreciate Power and would love to hear how the version with Poppy would sound like.
It’s sad cause the whole ordeal made it impossible for me to listen to We appreciate power and play destroy, even though I love those songs. Still love both artists but I definitely listen to them separately
@@CumbersomeKiwi Yeah, I get it. I don't listen to Poppy anymore because of the new direction of her music and I don't like metal, but I still love her old stuff and I will forever grieve this lost collab.
I was obsessed with Crystal Castles, Grimes, and Mars Argo around 2011. I love Poppy now. I loved watching all these things kinda connect and overlap over time. It's been wild.
The 4 am song actually uses a sample from « Deewani Mastani » from the Bollywood movie Bajirao Mastani. That movie is a deep dive in itself! Beautiful songs
This is legitimately the most excited I’ve been abt a piece of media in a v long time ong. Thank u for taking the time to make this research on weird shit like this and filming a video abt it is not as easy as ppl think. Also u look great btw love the hair love the tattoo
well I mean how were you when you were 20 starting out as electronic pop star in a matter of minutes...coming from a rich fam....and being but ofc Canadian. Canadians are kind of cheesy/goofy quirkier versions of Americans imo. Just saying and I mean that in a good way. Mostly.
@@Δ-Δ-Δ-Δ she is diagnosed autistic too, and it's different for everyone, I simply think this is the way it is for her. I (afaik) am not even autistic but just have ADHD and I only notice I have said completely nonsensical or incoherent/ out of context things when my friends laugh at it. I'm pretty sure it's not mean spirited, but well, at least I don't joke about the holocaust, just talking about "out of pocket" things, this is due to being ND.
I really love this video, so many things I didn't know about Grimes, the only thing I missed is the subtitles. It's very hard to read lips, especially since English is not my first language, I ended up spending almost 3 hours to understand everything.
I also feel like its ironic how much drama she has with other female artists who were abused by their partners/musical partners while CONSTANTLY being spoonfed awful horrible ideas by Elon Musk. Like bro, I really hope one day when she gets over him, she can make up with all the wonderful artists she started drama with.
they have a child together (or 2...) but unfortunately that means she'll always have that tie with him that'll be hard to escape from without forsaking the children
@@avr7120 I wasn't phrasing that as him sticking around bc fuck him, but more of, Grimes will have ties with him for the rest of her life whether she wants to or not (basically if she wants her son & daughter in her life)
As someone who’s been in a relationship with a severe power dynamic and abuse, I think once he’s no longer directly in her life/affecting her, she’ll have a lot of things and ideologies to unlearn. I think she’s capable of changing and growing.
8:52 Birthday song is also refers to Russian /soviet cartoon Cheburashka. I can hear the words Grimes singing :" я играю на гармошке у прохожих на виду, к сожалению, день рождения только раз в году". It's from Чебурашка 14:01 she sings it here btw + VK is more like a Facebook
The Devon introduction 😂 Edit: oh wow the Zolajesus and Devon reactions to the AI thing hit even harder in 2023, especially with the GrimesAI situation
speaking of vk: it's more like the facebook, but at this point this social media combines a lot of stuff from all of the social medias. but this is not what I wanted to say: grimes really has the vk profile and this profile is kinda funny and iconic for russian-speaking fans, she even has a post with russian swear words in it...but it hasn't been active for a looong time, if anyone is interested I can give you a link
Drama or no drama, c has always been an insane human being (in a good way). Although I can appreciate the art of poppy and alice glass, I feel like claire is the most genuine out of all of them but severely struggles with being misunderstood. We would never know the whole story but idc cause her existence is just a breathe of fresh air to me (and further gave me life when she started becoming more optimistic post pregnancy). I could go on about grimes (my friends are probably sick of it lol) and i would like to think i relate to her in a lot of aspects but they also say you should never meet your heroes. Anyway take your time with pt 3 so you can continue to work on your own music i would love to hear more!
Ok but tell me why Acid Reign chronicles, we appreciate power and art angels were grimes shining moments- like don't get me wrong i LOVE her new songs too but they feel so techno and boring now and I know she said that's just the thing she likes now but asjkfbakljgakla I wish we had more art pop psycho angel grimes songs ;w;
My personal ranking for her albums would be: -Halfaxa. -Artangels. -Visions. -Geidi Primes. -Miss Anthropocene. -Darkbloom. Halfaxa and its sheer energy will never be defeated. Miss Anthropocene is really good, but I don't like Before The Fever and Darkseid. 4ÆM, WAP, Violence, My Name Is Dark and So Heavy I Fell Through the Earth are absolute beauties.
@@marsrsy I also love Darbloom quite a lot. Ophia makes me feel as if an alien had abducted me, but we become boyfriends. Vanessa makes me feel as if I were C, under the rain in a bus station. Crystal Ball makes me feel as if I were a hamster, flying across the galaxy, blessing my followers with the power to turn stuff into food. Urban Twilight makes me feel as if I were Bella in Twilight, but smoking with C. under the Canadian sunset. And Hedra... oh my god, it makes me feel as if I were the stars and comets, feeling every pulsation of life, every heartbeat on Earth. Darkseid and Before The Fever are not bad songs, but they made me feel like... all right. I must say my favourite track from Miss Anthropocene was IDORU, because it felt the most real and I don't know, makes me feel as if I were proposing to my boyfriend so we can marry and have kids. For all that C. seems to dislike her Artangels era, I feel that whole album is one of her best works. C. may be batsh¡t insane with her statements, but the fact she hates that album and yet it is still a masterpiece makes me regard her in a similar vein to all of those artists that are eh human beings, legends in their craft. I legitimately go to my university every fricking day of my life at 7 am in the morning listening to Weregild, Flesh Without Blood, Grisgris, Sardaukar Levenbrech and Belly of the Beat. I feel many fans are unfair with C. I quite like Player of Games and Shinigami Eyes. Welcome To The Opera dropped a few days ago and it's all right, but it didn't speak to me. I'm excited for Digital Calypso and Utopia, though. (Saturn Princess, Drome and Life Before Death are my favourite obscure tracks from her, by the way. Ham Mer Maid literally inspired me to reorganise the way I listen to music, that's just too beautiful and life-changing a piece of work and why despite C. questionable shenanigans, I highly respect her).
great job again! we appreciate the time and effort you put into these! i also really like how personable you are and your inputs as an artist/musician!
The universe blessed me. Pt 1 just showed up in my home feed yesterday. I immediately went to look for part two thinking (oh surely) lol. And already today pt 2? Amazing! 🖤😂 Thank you for all your hard work!
I loved the art angels era too, also remember her saying in an interview that she was heavily influenced by listening to Paramore while making it and also that she had originally wanted to be a country singer (?) lol and that also influenced songs like California
I got into Grimes around 2010 through a message board that fawned all over anyone making music like she did. I still love her music and think it's wonderful. I hope she keeps making music and doesn't let this weird media spiral turn her into some autistic white version of Kayne. Ranting about out of pocket bullshit. Grimes 💖☄️✨🦋
After both Jaimes' and Poppy's accounts of Grimes saying she was very controlling + grimes saying herself something along the lines of how she couldn't have someone else work for her bc she'd be telling them to do everything (i think she passed it off as a joke), I do find it hard to believe that she isn't like that. Love you grimes but girl...
I have the attention span of a toddler fruit fly, so I really didn't think I'd watch until the end but I'm so glad I did. Your hard work aside, that last couple of seconds is pure gold :D
Holy shit, i listen to hana's house and techno sets a lot and love to just watch her vibe and dj but i had no idea it was the same hana that was on we appreciate power. Hana's work is amazing if anyone here is into edm i would totally check it out, shes very versatile in many types of edm and puts out sets on youtube frequently called the hana room. Ive never listened to her songs not in the form of the mix but im definitely checking out her self titled in its entirety(i really love Avalanche)
Came here to say Thank u for ur comment about DJs😂❤ + thank u for making pt 2 for all of us im here from pt 1 & the amount of connections and research in both of these is impressive ❤
Hi, I love both of your iceberg videos and I'm glad you've made them! And also I found your music because of them and I really love it, can't wait to hear more. I would also love a video about your creative process and stuff. You've just gained a big fan!
As a Grimes fan, I will say I don’t agree with everything she thinks or says or does. It’s frustrating cuz one day she’ll say something awesome and the next she’ll say something dumb. But I do think she’s an amazing artist and as a producer and musician myself I appreciate her so much and I want to believe she’s actually a good person but just says dumb shit sometimes and is misunderstood. I just hope we get a Grimes redemption era. Also Grimes and Hana just tweeted each other recently on Hana’s birthday and Grimes said “Love you!” While wishing her a happy birthday so they are still pals 👯♀️ ✨🖤
This is so entertaining damn, can’t wait for part 3. And love the eyebrowless choice, it’s badass tbh. (Btw I had this vid in my watch later playlist and when I went to leave this comment it already skipped to the next vid without me realising so I almost just complemented a randomer on having no eyebrows. They would have been so confused if I didn’t catch it in time lmao)
Judging by the quality of Grimes acting, it's laughable that she was tweeting to her friends on her alt accounts about leaving music and going into acting. ( Even her Lizzy wizzy voice over acting was cringe/terrible)
By the way this video is amazing but in the future i would appreciate the screenshots to be kept on screen a bit longer because i miss the pause and have to rewind frequently on this video and the last. subscribed after watching these ❤ I hooe you keep making content/deep dives. If you were ever a die hard marina and the diamonds/MARINA fan like me , you should totally cover an iceberg on h!!
22:26 idk how much of this is true but I think she actually has wealthy origins but she was living in such a conditions to experience what it feels like and to boost her writing/song ideas
i also heard this a few times but couldnt find any source other than anecdotes from people slandering her over elon musk. doesnt seem credible considering it’s only ever used as a point of critique,, but honestly who knows? her mom Sandy actually seems quite reasonable
@@marsrsy Allegedly, Grimes, biological dad actually owned the apartment building that Grimes lived in while at McGill , and that let her "job" be the rent collector for all of the other students and low income residents who lived there. Both of Grimes' Parents were very well off. Grimes' whole "starving artist" years were literally self inflicted and more of a cosplay that she was able to quickly shed once bored, and it had lost it''s appeal. I don't doubt that she willingly chose to live in/ and associate with fellow street artists who basically lived in hovels, but that was because she refused to actually work a real job when her music was not currently supporting her. Funny how at that time Grimes had a very big amphetamine addiction , and always seemed to have money for various kinds of drugs ( To fuel her artistic process, I suppose). It's also amusing that Grimes has the audacity to complain about her current status and life of luxury; blaming the very fans that originally supported her from the beginning and helped get her to where she is now. Grimes is STILL with Elon on the DL ( though she won't refer to it on her official social media because it will cause bad press). She moved to San Francisco with Musk when he took over twitter and has fully ingrained herself into Musk's Red pill, alt right, pro-natalist ( for the 1% only), tech -capitalist/fascists beliefs and friend group. There is no defending her recent problematic behavior
Okay, I might be psychic, bc I just thought of this video, well the first part, and wondered if you ever uploaded a sequel, so I went to search for it and here we are, six hours after it was posted.
thank you so so much for the thought and effort you put into these videos… this is soooo healing for the grimes fan teen-child inside me & somehow simultaneously just so inspiring. grimes is a living legend and will always be no matter how “chaotic evil” she might act.
Didnt really read the iceberg but is there anything on there about how she collabed with LOONA? That was so random on both parts but the song that came out was a masterpiece
You reminded me of old/showed me new important grimes moments 🎭TYSMMM. Im so sick and stayed up the whole night doing nothing but watching your 2 grimes vids and digging deeper into them ✅
discovered you through part one of this and stayed for your music! pyro is AMAZING and inspired me to do some traditional art for the first time in a WHILE. excited to see your other works! 🍓🤍
I acc liked the music in the bg of the last video but this is great too! Thanks alot. I truly dony gaf about Grimes and never have but ive learned some interesting things before I went to sleep
Ooooh I also discovered Grimes as a teen and I’m kinda glad I didn’t really dive THAT deep into her fandom-wise because it’s always heartbreaking for me to watch them turn into someone SEVERELY problematic. Her music remains fantastic though. Which makes it even haaaardeeeeer 😓
I just got this video in my recommended so I figured I’d watch part 1 first. I know nothing about grimes except about that apparently she ate so much pasta in one part of her life that her hair fell out. Anyways both great videos you’ve definitely earned yourself a subscriber as I really like the way you present information
17:20 On her ex, Jamie Brooks (I do not know what name they currently go by), idoru was written about them, not Elon. Which is to say that, I think, if Grimes had strong negative feelings towards them, I feel like shed probably withold that song from the record, as many other artists do with their personal songs.

Darkseid and Before The Fever are not bad songs, but they made me feel like... all right. I must say my favourite track from Miss Anthropocene was IDORU, because it felt the most real and I don't know, makes me feel as if I were proposing to my boyfriend so we can marry and have kids.
For all that C. seems to dislike her Artangels era, I feel that whole album is one of her best works. C. may be batsh¡t insane with her statements, but the fact she hates that album and yet it is still a masterpiece makes me regard her in a similar vein to all of those artists that are eh human beings, legends in their craft.
I legitimately go to my university every fricking day of my life at 7 am in the morning listening to Weregild, Flesh Without Blood, Grisgris, Sardaukar Levenbrech and Belly of the Beat.
I feel many fans are unfair with C. I quite like Player of Games and Shinigami Eyes. Welcome To The Opera dropped a few days ago and it's all right, but it didn't speak to me. I'm excited for Digital Calypso and Utopia, though.
(Saturn Princess, Drome and Life Before Death are my favourite obscure tracks from her, by the way. Ham Mer Maid literally inspired me to reorganise the way I listen to music, that's just too beautiful and life-changing a piece of work and why despite C. questionable shenanigans, I highly respect her).
great job again! we appreciate the time and effort you put into these! i also really like how personable you are and your inputs as an artist/musician!
yessss i saw this upload and jumped on it. Thank you, its so fun and cathartic, great job and you look great
The universe blessed me. Pt 1 just showed up in my home feed yesterday. I immediately went to look for part two thinking (oh surely) lol.
And already today pt 2? Amazing! 🖤😂
Thank you for all your hard work!
I’m hardcore grimes fan since 2014 and it feels so good to see more good grimes content online from the fans 😂❤
Cheers 0:02, thanks for the deep dive.
"she already sounds like a Spaniard" took me tf out.
Ps. You are a breath of fresh air, love the authenticity 💗
I loved the art angels era too, also remember her saying in an interview that she was heavily influenced by listening to Paramore while making it and also that she had originally wanted to be a country singer (?) lol and that also influenced songs like California
I needed this after part one like seriously
This is AWESOME thank you for putting in so much time and effort to provide such high quality entertainment. Ur super cool! Also i love your top :)
I got into Grimes around 2010 through a message board that fawned all over anyone making music like she did. I still love her music and think it's wonderful. I hope she keeps making music and doesn't let this weird media spiral turn her into some autistic white version of Kayne. Ranting about out of pocket bullshit. Grimes 💖☄️✨🦋
I like this comment.
After both Jaimes' and Poppy's accounts of Grimes saying she was very controlling + grimes saying herself something along the lines of how she couldn't have someone else work for her bc she'd be telling them to do everything (i think she passed it off as a joke), I do find it hard to believe that she isn't like that. Love you grimes but girl...
I hope you continue making these kinds of artist deep-dives. Really enjoyed it!
I have the attention span of a toddler fruit fly, so I really didn't think I'd watch until the end but I'm so glad I did. Your hard work aside, that last couple of seconds is pure gold :D
Holy shit, i listen to hana's house and techno sets a lot and love to just watch her vibe and dj but i had no idea it was the same hana that was on we appreciate power. Hana's work is amazing if anyone here is into edm i would totally check it out, shes very versatile in many types of edm and puts out sets on youtube frequently called the hana room. Ive never listened to her songs not in the form of the mix but im definitely checking out her self titled in its entirety(i really love Avalanche)
one of the best and funniest videos i have ever watched about grimes
I feel like I should be the last person alive who's as heavily invested in learning this lore as I am but here I am, sipping the tea.
Came here to say Thank u for ur comment about DJs😂❤ + thank u for making pt 2 for all of us im here from pt 1 & the amount of connections and research in both of these is impressive ❤
I'm loving this series
10/10 Absolutely amazing job Marsy!!!
Hi, I love both of your iceberg videos and I'm glad you've made them! And also I found your music because of them and I really love it, can't wait to hear more. I would also love a video about your creative process and stuff. You've just gained a big fan!
As a Grimes fan, I will say I don’t agree with everything she thinks or says or does. It’s frustrating cuz one day she’ll say something awesome and the next she’ll say something dumb. But I do think she’s an amazing artist and as a producer and musician myself I appreciate her so much and I want to believe she’s actually a good person but just says dumb shit sometimes and is misunderstood. I just hope we get a Grimes redemption era.
Also Grimes and Hana just tweeted each other recently on Hana’s birthday and Grimes said “Love you!” While wishing her a happy birthday so they are still pals 👯♀️ ✨🖤
been waiting for this! thank you
i just watched both videos of the grimes iceberg, they're so fun & you got me laughing at grimes' nonsense for like an hour and a half lmao
Thank you so much!!
in case someone doesn’t know , “birthday song” is a song from an old soviet cartoon called cheburashka 💖
This is so entertaining damn, can’t wait for part 3. And love the eyebrowless choice, it’s badass tbh. (Btw I had this vid in my watch later playlist and when I went to leave this comment it already skipped to the next vid without me realising so I almost just complemented a randomer on having no eyebrows. They would have been so confused if I didn’t catch it in time lmao)
you're gonna paaay
I had forgotten this and now its back to living rent free
Judging by the quality of Grimes acting, it's laughable that she was tweeting to her friends on her alt accounts about leaving music and going into acting. ( Even her Lizzy wizzy voice over acting was cringe/terrible)
I love your humor and I just really enjoy you talking
By the way this video is amazing but in the future i would appreciate the screenshots to be kept on screen a bit longer because i miss the pause and have to rewind frequently on this video and the last. subscribed after watching these ❤ I hooe you keep making content/deep dives. If you were ever a die hard marina and the diamonds/MARINA fan like me , you should totally cover an iceberg on h!!
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!!!!
22:26 idk how much of this is true but I think she actually has wealthy origins but she was living in such a conditions to experience what it feels like and to boost her writing/song ideas
i also heard this a few times but couldnt find any source other than anecdotes from people slandering her over elon musk. doesnt seem credible considering it’s only ever used as a point of critique,, but honestly who knows? her mom Sandy actually seems quite reasonable
@@marsrsy Allegedly, Grimes, biological dad actually owned the apartment building that Grimes lived in while at McGill , and that let her "job" be the rent collector for all of the other students and low income residents who lived there. Both of Grimes' Parents were very well off.
Grimes' whole "starving artist" years were literally self inflicted and more of a cosplay that she was able to quickly shed once bored, and it had lost it''s appeal.
I don't doubt that she willingly chose to live in/ and associate with fellow street artists who basically lived in hovels, but that was because she refused to actually work a real job when her music was not currently supporting her.
Funny how at that time Grimes had a very big amphetamine addiction , and always seemed to have money for various kinds of drugs ( To fuel her artistic process, I suppose).
It's also amusing that Grimes has the audacity to complain about her current status and life of luxury; blaming the very fans that originally supported her from the beginning and helped get her to where she is now.
Grimes is STILL with Elon on the DL ( though she won't refer to it on her official social media because it will cause bad press). She moved to San Francisco with Musk when he took over twitter and has fully ingrained herself into Musk's Red pill, alt right, pro-natalist ( for the 1% only), tech -capitalist/fascists beliefs and friend group.
There is no defending her recent problematic behavior
Okay, I might be psychic, bc I just thought of this video, well the first part, and wondered if you ever uploaded a sequel, so I went to search for it and here we are, six hours after it was posted.
YES ITS HERE
AWESOME channel! I learned so much ❤loved Grimes back in the day.
thank you so so much for the thought and effort you put into these videos… this is soooo healing for the grimes fan teen-child inside me & somehow simultaneously just so inspiring. grimes is a living legend and will always be no matter how “chaotic evil” she might act.
If you haven't yet, watch her interview w Julia Fox. I think she's balancing it out since becoming a mama
yeah she's a normal human with flaws just like all of us.
Didnt really read the iceberg but is there anything on there about how she collabed with LOONA? That was so random on both parts but the song that came out was a masterpiece
I only recently got into Grimes but this is making me want to dive deeper.
omg yay thanks!!!!! can't wait to watch this
not me being a creept but youre so beautiful and ur side profile at 16:21 is so gorg
umm okay ur hand in marriage please
The interview at 4:40 she reminds me so much of Elon: the attitude, the inflections, the tics.
ive been waiting for this!! so excited to watch pt 2 finally!
Thank you for fixing the sound quality it was lowkey painful
The fact I know everything about this iceberg I’m so chronically online
omg yay i’ve been excited for part 2
Btw can you do a room tour cause your room looks like my dream room omg
ive been waitin for this one.. turn it up!
You reminded me of old/showed me new important grimes moments 🎭TYSMMM. Im so sick and stayed up the whole night doing nothing but watching your 2 grimes vids and digging deeper into them ✅
I love the grandiose entrance 😍😍😍
These are sooooo good a masterpiece really enjoyed these!!!! ty!!
I haven't been able to stop listening to Dark Come soon since this video...
Great video. Well presented, well researched and interesting. You're a funny person. Subscribed.
discovered you through part one of this and stayed for your music! pyro is AMAZING and inspired me to do some traditional art for the first time in a WHILE. excited to see your other works! 🍓🤍
you're very entertaining btw 💖
I acc liked the music in the bg of the last video but this is great too! Thanks alot. I truly dony gaf about Grimes and never have but ive learned some interesting things before I went to sleep
how did I miss this 7 days ago!?? I'm glad I finally got the notification 👀😈
I love your videos!!
It's so hard being a Grimes fan
Ooooh I also discovered Grimes as a teen and I’m kinda glad I didn’t really dive THAT deep into her fandom-wise because it’s always heartbreaking for me to watch them turn into someone SEVERELY problematic. Her music remains fantastic though. Which makes it even haaaardeeeeer 😓
I just got this video in my recommended so I figured I’d watch part 1 first. I know nothing about grimes except about that apparently she ate so much pasta in one part of her life that her hair fell out. Anyways both great videos you’ve definitely earned yourself a subscriber as I really like the way you present information
17:20 On her ex, Jamie Brooks (I do not know what name they currently go by), idoru was written about them, not Elon. Which is to say that, I think, if Grimes had strong negative feelings towards them, I feel like shed probably withold that song from the record, as many other artists do with their personal songs.
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS LFGGG
FINALLY FINISHED WATCHINGG AfTER 2 wEEKS
MARSY THANK YOUU
didn't know a part 2 was coming out😭❤️
