Poster Position: 8
Both Weekends.  Saturday.

Thoughts:  I turned this one on and planned to get some work done, but after about three songs I need to go ahead and just write something out so that I can stop listening to this.  Overall, this is generic R&B music like you've heard many times before, but she is remarkably whispery and whiny and, like, treacly sexy?  I just want it to stop.  It feels like when Mike Myers is sexily singing "happy birthday Mr. President" but for every single song.  Actually wait, it is sort of more like when a teenage Natalie Portman does it in The Professional and I wanted to cringe myself into another time zone.

Anyway, this is an R&B singer from Miami who get her start releasing tunes onto Soundcloud before firing out a debut mixtape in 2017.  She moved to L.A. to begin her career.  Wikipedia really doesn't say much about her, except that she might be a racist ass.  "In April 2018, a series of screenshots began to circulate around the social media app Twitter showcasing Claudio's alleged use of several racial slurs, and other offensive language directed at minorities. She also was accused of using a second account on Twitter to share racist messages. Claudio has since issued a now-deleted apology on Twitter for her actions."  WTF, man.  Why would you make a second Twitter handle just to post racist shit?  Just STFU.  Go sing some sultry ass R&B and post it on Soundcloud instead!

Five albums - 2017's About Time, 2018's No Rain, No Flowers, 2019's Truth Is, 2020's Christmas Blues, and 2022's Based on a Feeling.  Her most popular tracks are from that debut album, with a couple from the new album edging their way in there as well.  Her top track is from the debut and features 6LACK, called "Belong to You," with 117.5 million streams.

See what I mean?  Whispery, whiny, kinda like she is constipated while trying to sing her lines.  Or maybe the other way around, she really has to pee and so if she projects with her voice she'll wet herself, so she's keeping it super quiet and pinched.  One of those two.  Something involving the bathroom for sure.  The new album's top track is "Put on Repeat" with 4.5 million streams.

haaaaapppppyyyyy buuuuuuuurrrrrthhdayyyyy muuussssteeeuuuuuurrrrrrr presiduuuuuuuuuuuuuuunt.

I will definitely not go watch this happen in real life.
