  • ... that Macy Rodman wrote the songs for her 2021 album Unbelievable Animals during the COVID-19 lockdown in New York City? Source: "The Brooklyn nightlife legend wrote those aching lyrics after breaking up with her on-again, off-again boyfriend of two years. She recounts the story through infectious giggles one afternoon at a sweaty Bushwick cafe, sporting a slinky minidress and blonde bob. It was March 2020, as COVID began to explode in the United States, and the couple had been planning to move in together. Checking her phone after landing in New York City, flying back from a production session in Los Angeles, she was shocked by a devastating text message from her lover. He was getting back together with his ex.

    Freshly heartbroken, and isolated by the unprecedented vacuum of lockdown, Rodman immersed herself in songwriting as a means of escape. She set herself a deadline of 30 days to write as much as she could, and churned out the songs that would appear on Unbelievable Animals, her third studio album, arriving Friday on Shamir’s Accidental Popstar Records."

Perhaps a hook about this excerpt (radio-rock shine with dirt-punk roots, like the energy in a '90s nightclub" with a dash of Ray of Light-esque experimental pop and Chromatica-style club bangers) may work? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 13:33, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I like that! Thriley (talk) 15:07, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • ALT1 ... that Macy Rodman's 2021 album Unbelievable Animals was described as combining "radio-rock shine with dirt-punk roots" and "a dash of Ray of Light-esque experimental pop"?
I wanted to include the "energy in a '90s nightclub" bit there but it wasn't really "combined" with the other descriptions so saying it was combined with the "radio-rock shine" isn't really accurate. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 00:24, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1 looks good. Even if it isn’t the complete description, it flows quite well. Thank you very much for your help. Thriley (talk) 18:05, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article is long enough and expanded enough. A QPQ has been completed. I like ALT1 which is directly cited. The only remaining issue is that all of the information under Discography needs to be referenced. SL93 (talk) 22:35, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Epicgenius: Thank you! Thriley (talk) 20:22, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn’t able to find citations for two of the singles. Should I just remove them? Thriley (talk) 20:23, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would be fine with that. SL93 (talk) 21:44, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Are they not mentioned in her official website or some other official source? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 12:22, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Thriley: I found a source for one, but the other one looks like it only shows up on streaming services, so I would be find with you deleting it. LemonOrangeLime (talk) 03:33, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I just used her bandcamp as a source for that one. I figure her notability has been established so using that as a source for one single is acceptable. Thriley (talk) 22:27, 15 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]


@SL93: Look good to go? Thriley (talk) 00:48, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ALT1 is approved. SL93 (talk) 02:04, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Birth name

[edit]

I have removed the birth name added here a while back because, while there was a source which gave the composer of a Macy Rodman song as Macy Lee Brown, it did not technically say that Macy Lee Brown and Macy Rodman are the same person, and I could not find any other sources which claim this. I don't want to step on anyone's toes here, so I wanted to make my reasoning clear on the talk page. LemonOrangeLime (talk) 20:25, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
