Chappell Roan's The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess

There's this comic I read, you can find it on Webtoon or Tapas, called My Dragon Girlfriend. I subscribe to the creators patreon at a level that gives me access to NSFW drawings of the characters within (plus exclusive comic series, thats what I subscribed for, I swear.) The creator, at one point, made a post saying that when she thinks of the catgirl witch and transfem vampire couple, she thinks of the song 'Red Wine Supernova' by Chappell Roan. Naturally, I bought the song as a single and have listened to it nonstop for the past few months. It's a great song, very sexually charged.

Genius I am, it took me a while to find out that there may be an album linked to that single, and when I went to listened to it I found plenty more songs just like in theme, but not in style. The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess is an album consisting of a roughly equal number of fast and slow songs all with some relation to romance, love, sex, and being some level of sapphic. Some of my favorites are HOT TO GO!, Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl and Casual. This is one of those rare albums where every song is a banger, and I usually listen to the whole thing from start to end without stopping. It also just so happens to be very horny.

Music is and always has been full of songs with sexual innuendo, from 'My Girls Pussy' to 'Baby Got Back.' I only put this album review here in the NSFW section of the website because I don't want my parents seeing that I listen to music about sex. Why is that? I think its the divide between thinking about ad alluding to sex and the act of doing it, especially for someone like me who identifies on the ace spectrum. This feels like it can be a blog post in itself, so i'll cut my thoughts here short. Midwest Princess gets the thumbs up from me, and you can find it anywhere you stream music, and for purchase on iTunes. You can buy the singles on bandcamp, but not the whole album together, which I think is odd. Oh, also check out My Dragon Girlfriend, it's a good time!
