The simple fact that her label didn’t get “Pink Pony Club” totally sums up what is wrong with the music industry today. It’s fun vibrant hopeful art how could you possibly hate it?

[@uglygeguri]

seriously tho thats what got me into her music. It randomly popped up in my feed and I’ve been a fan ever sinxe

[@chloer.h7955]

I am a 44 y/o PAN girl and I recently discovered Chappell. I grew up in the 90s club scene on the East Coast (US). Mainly in Baltimore, DC, VA, PA, and sometimes Limelight in NYC) I am sure she would have been one of my besties back then. I just lost my Mama and Chappell's music has helped me through this time of mourning and self-discovery. I just wanted to leave that here on the internet, for eternity. 💖 ❤ your content CapBz

[@anakinb]

I feel like Chappell has a lot of interesting things to say about the album but I felt the questions were kind of lacking? Most of the prewritten questions weren’t digging very deeply at all. It seemed like they were not the interviewers question and he rather HAD to make sure to circle back to the questions. The best moments of the interview were when it was more conversational and the interviewer wasn’t glued to the paper.

[@usedjellyfish]

Totally agree. No volleying, just straight to the card - we could have got so much more from her by following her train of thought.

[@jenniferhalf1650]

I disagree. I think she was just nervous. Either way I enjoyed her interview..

[@thelanehunter]

@@jenniferhalf1650I don’t get the vibe that she was nervous at all. I agree the interviewer was lacking. The questions were so specific. I wish they had been more open-ended and given her the space to say what she wanted for each song
