CHAPPELL ROAN - THE RISE AND FALL OF A MIDWEST PRINCESS ALBUM REACTION 

TIMESTAMPS

her being such an out and proud queer woman and making music that is different and weird is apart of why i love her so much

She's so real- unhinged, emotional, authentic, there for the high highs and low lows of relationships. Every song, manic positive or depressive negative i was like: wow- too real. 😂😭

The most underrated artist on my radar right now. WHY she hasn’t blown up yet, I have no idea. So many pop gems on this.

me searching up and down to find people reacting to this album…i’m so happy you did😭😭😭

her name is chappell after her late grandpa’s last name and roan after his favorite western movie “the strawberry roan” ! she’s from southwest missouri. she wrote california after she was dropped from a record label a few years ago. she said kaleidoscope is about falling in love with her best friend. also I’m so glad you loved it! pink pony club for sure put her on the map when she released it a few years ago. I’m from the same area as her and I was able to go to her opening night of tour last week in her hometown and she gave some explanations for some of the songs. she’s so cool! I love her stuff and I’m excited for more.

The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess gives me the same queer joy Born this Way gave me when that album dropped in 2011. Chappell is the best, this is album of the year for me! Thanks for reacting :)

she so perfectly encapsulates what it’s like being a midwest princess and i feel seen

my favorite part about my kink is karma is how the closer it gets to the chorus the more she sounds like she's hitting a... climax as she gets to the "but my kink is watching YOU" and you is finally when she hits the peak and it's so fun and cool and wowowowow

god i love humans. this gave me so much happiness

the lil dance for “hot to go” is absolutely addictive, it’s so fun hehe I have to do it every time the song is on!

highly recommend her music videos, they're gorgeous, fun, campy, and give more insight into the songs too

the first song i heard from her was "kaleidoscope". the metaphor of a relationship changing shape (friends-lovers-friends) but also colors (queer) is one of the most genius things ever. "all the colors of the rainbow / don't be afraid to hold it close" is one of the most heartbreaking and romantic and beautiful lines I've heard, like, "do it even though it might not work out in the end." that with the lush strings and the gorgeous vocal performance and UGHHHH it's kind of perfect honestly. and then I heard the other singles and was completely taken by surprise at the sheer campiness and almost goofy energy. took some adjusting for sure lol, her range + versatility is off the charts

I've been her fan since last year I once played Casual on repeat for like 12 hours and surprisingly I still love that song

This is quite literally a perfect album

as a longtime fan of chappell (thank u for answering my request!!!) seeing you experience her artistry for the first time was just magical. i love that you commented on her uniqueness, she's truly one of a kind

Omg I just saw her opening for Olivia’s concert and she played some of her album songs and let me just say, her STAGE PRESENCE! I knew nothing of her before Olivia’s concert and best believe I QUICKLY searched her up and became obsessed! Now I’m here and I’m so glad you enjoy it as much as I do!

Album of the year - absolutely sublime.

To me, this is what pop should be 🤷‍♀️ if it were more like this, I would actually like it more. It is eccentric but isn't that what pop is about? She's reviving the genre, in my opinion, and I'm absolutely here for it 🙌🏼💖🔥

I've not gone through all the comments, but I also just need to say that Daniel Nigro produced "Pink Pony Club" a year before Olivia broke out. I do not want to compare the girls at all, but it SHOULD be said that Chappell's song came first based only on the "This sounds like Olivia" moments in this video.

This is so fun watching someone hear her for the first time!

“I’m gonna die” during Coffee is so relatable. 😭 I had full body chills listening to it for the first time.

i think this is my album of the year im so inspired by this super graphic ultra modern girl

Being wlw this album hits soooooooo hard!!!

YAAASSSS!!! I love this album! Her song writing is so unique.

the way i was listening to the album when it came out and you were the ONLY person to have a reaction to her. You’re an OG my boi

I love her so much lmao the lyrics being so unhinged is the best part

Ive been sleeping on this album until ive heard good luck babe and this is so fucking good. Her vocals are insane live as well

this album is INCREDIBLE! Chappell really has something special

“Casual@ going on to SGUMG feels like moving from “All Too Well” into “22”.

I love seeing someone feel pink pony club the way I do I feel like the meaning of it gets lost in so many people

SUPER GRAPHIC ULTRA MODERN GIRL IS THE SONG OF THE YEAR. POP PERFECTION

I feel like Chappell Roan is when you get a bit of Gaga, Madonna, Taylor Swift, and a little touch of Lana wrapped up in a pretty little bow

I WAS LITERALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR REACTION SO MUCH😭😭 she devoured with this debut ngl

i’ve loved chappell for a hot minute and she’s so underrated. this album is perfect and so fun but i cannot get over her turning down and editing the beat in my kink is karma.. that was my fav chappell song and beat and it was ROBBED. but other than that she devoured.

just gave this album a listen yesterday one of the most impressive debuts in a long time her music makes me so happy and it’s so fresh and unique will be on repeat for the next year lol red wine supernova and my kink is karma are definitely on my top and Chappell is on the radar of becoming one of my top 5 artists :) truly such a iconic one for the girls and the gays

she is also amazing live!! she sounds like she ate the cd and is playing it out of her mouth stitch style!! my kink is karma goes so hard live

ahh i’m so glad chappell roan is getting some of the recognition she deserves!!! your video popped up in my feed bc i watch all of chappell's stuff lol and i am so glad to see it! also glad you agree that pink pony club is the best on the album, it’s arguably one of my favourite songs ever. but that might just be my mom issues talking lol. i loved this! also, if you loved her album, 100% go watch videos of her on stage, she’s so energetic and incredible live and it’s my dream to go to one of her shows

one of my friends played me pink pony club back in 2020 and i was jamming out to that song till i started listening to her other music a few months back and instantly fell in love with her music! im seeing her live in CLT this month!!!

She's the next lady gaga I'm calling it

Her album is incredible. Her concerts are sold out now, I'm glad I got tickets. You called it months ago!!

She is so underrated, I was so blessed when Femininomenon appeared in my spotify awhile back. She flippin rocks

Above all the wonderful things about this album is the Voice, delicate, strong, beautiful ,dripping in emotion and honesty.

really happy to see you reacting to this album! i’ve been following Chappell for a long time and love to see her getting more recognition! my first time hearing this album I wished California was the album closure, but Guilty Pleasure gives me end credits type of vibe, so I got over that quickly, xD

i appreciate the amount of head swaying in this video

I'm so glad someone did this because this album actually snaps

I love this album to pieces!! I never even heard of Chappell until I heard it the first time ✨

I just discovered her and I'm a fan for life.

So excited to see a reaction to this album! Chappell is crazy underrated.

Best album, I've heard in a long time. Need to experience her live show. Great talent and voice.

So glad you reacted to this one. SHES AMAZING!

Her and this album took me by surprise. I saw her on the vevo thing, gave her chance and 🤩🥰😍💯

She is so underrated; I love seeing more content around her. Thanks for making this!

Album is a MASTERPIECE. PERIOD. I’m gonna go see her with my friends on Halloween :D

its always so fun to see how different straight vs gay ppl react to red wine supernova nog that straight ppl don’t like it but queer women liveeeee for it

Thank you for not pausing the music a million times to talk, ruining the continuity for the viewer. When reviewers do that I take note and avoid their reviews. You do it the right way - light commentary during song without pausing the music then more feedback after the songs concluded 🙏

Her album is a true “no skips” album. Seriously. It’s THAT good and I’m soooo happy she’s blown up over the last few months!

Your reactions were so amazing and gratifying! I'm seeing her live soon again and your video was so great to watch as a pre-game of sorts. As for another song like "Coffee", I refer you to Roses & Revolutions x Lostboycrow's identically titled "Coffee"... That made me cackle. Cheers!

I LOVE MY MOTHER CHAPPELL

this album is beyond amazing!

watching someone else go through the same waves of emotion i did and having fun listening to this album?? i love. RU-vid did right recommending me this 🫶🏼

This album is perfection. No skips. I've had it on repeat for about 2 weeks straight.

So excited for this! This album is AMAZING

Yeah a couple of years ago she came out as bi. So she does have a couple of songs that relate to romantic relationships with men. But she has also come out as a lesbian AFTER the bi coming out... I only recently found her so I don't know the exact timeline of when she came out as bi and then when she came out again as a lesbian but yeah...She currently identifies as a lesbian.

Chappell is such an incredible artist!! i’m so honored to be from her home town and to see where she has come! I don’t know how she is not everywhere this album is a brilliant. pop. masterpiece.

And omg I’m so glad how much u appreciate pink pony club 😭😭 absolutely best song on the album

I never heard of her before but we went to a concert and the support act was a lady whit guitar who covered casual. I loved that song so I looked up Roan on Spotify and RU-vid. Love it!

i'm so glad you did this!! she needs more views

Her music is so honest, i so angry not much people listen to this good stuff!!!!!

She is queen

She's from my town, I've seen her live 3 times now 🤭 she's so sweet too

I was supposed to be in Toronto to see her last night 😭 had to cancel due to family reasons. But this will soothe my pain a bit

LOVE this album. I’m trying to convince my friends to listen to her so that I have someone to go to her concert with 🫠

Loved this 😫

Your reactions bring me so much happiness. ❤

Pink Pony Club is giving me some Rina Sawayama vibes!

LOVE this album

YESSSS love this albummmmmm

She is SO good 🥰🫶

She is coming for all the girls gigs, I hear Taylor, Olivia, Gaga, Katy Perry, Gwen Stefani, Kim Petras, Kesha, and more but in her own unique way. Pop music at its finest.

My 3 year old and I sing pink pony club and Hot to go together all the time 😂

Red Wine Supernova is a play on Champagne Supernova and uses the same chords 🥰

Yayyyyyy! 👏👏👏👏

Love her. Queen. 💗✨

Such a great album

"I wanted that to last longer so I could cry to it" during Picture You tho lmao me, knowing full well that Pink Pony Club and California were about to wreck shop: honey, you've got a big storm coming

Im late to Chappell, found her a couple weeks ago. Im not one to judge people for what music they like, but if they don't like Chappell, theyre gone 😂

In sure someone else may have shared, but her name is pronounced like a church “chapel” ☺️ love the reaction!

CHAPPELL IS SO SLAY

shes too good

CHAH -ple like Apple but with 'Ch' at the start...

We need a reaction to the new Bakar album called Halo it’s a very fun well put together project and I don’t see anyone talking about it

Please react to Out Of My Mind the album by Trousdale! You will LOVE them. If Taylor swift had an indie folk girl group, with hints of Carrie underwood and lizzy mcalpine

we're seconds in this video and im dying over the pronunciation but yk its fine, im fine

Please please please do Hozier, Alt J, Ben Howard!!

My favorites are my kink is karma & pink piny club

Love her but only 4 new songs 😢 itd prolly be an aoty contender for me if it had a more regular rollout

she's had explicitly queer songs in the album before naked in manhattan though: red wine supernova, after midnight, and sgumg. naked in manhattan isn't the first explicitly queer song

I hate when someone cuts up on edits too much!!! so distracting from your great personality.

Picture You is Lana Del Ray on steroids
