#MUNA
Muna is the third studio album by American indie pop band Muna, released on June 24, 2022. It is their first album as an independent artist after they signed with Phoebe Bridgers' Saddest Factory Records imprint in 2021. It was promoted with the singles "Silk Chiffon", "Anything but Me", "Kind of Girl", "Home by Now" and "What I Want". The album was met with critical acclaim upon release and became the band's first-charting album on the US Billboard 200 and UK Albums Chart.

[@hollybxoxoxo]

the fact that they are largely self written AND produced... put some respect on Naomi McPherson's name!!!! they know what tf they are doing!!!!

[@hollybxoxoxo]

troy liked my comment… printing this out to frame…

[@nezbut7]

i love watching the vids of naomi talking about their process! SO COOL

[@broookepap]

Entirely self written and produced. Just had to give credit where credit is due ❤

[@saywhatuwill]

LOOKED DOWN AT THE COMMENTS AND SHOUTED OUT LOUD. YESSS!!!!!!!!! YESSS!!!!!!!!!! LETS GO

[@hollybxoxoxo]

@@saywhatuwill ‼️‼️‼️

[@katem6126]

this is like watching a straight man experiencing a gay club for the first time and i am obsessed with it, Naomi is SO talented and their production deserves so much credit

[@ryohry]

1:30 “omg we’re so gay” said by a straight man has never sounded this respectful to me before

[@localaud9814]

I'm literally so thrilled to be here at gay church with you all.

[@evermoremarvel]

OH MY GOD THANK YOU FINALLY SOMEONE GIVING MUNA THE RESPECT AND PRAISE THEY DESERVE

[@alisonlenert6299]

I think Loose Garment is actually more positive! Her sadness used to choke her, but now is a loose garment. Still there, but not suffocating.

[@torih1579]

This is how I interpret it too, like it’s still present but lighter

[@rjs2035]

You would poop your pants at their Tiny Desk performance!!! SO FRICKING GOOOOOOODDDD 😭

[@taylorbreiter6557]

YES need the review of this!!!!!!

[@taylorbreiter6557]

@hthazee pls

[@beautifulgoodbye04]

second this!

[@chungawunga]

loose garment was sooooooooooo gooood

[@hthazee]

WE WATCHED!! it was incredible!

[@ethan1032]

naomi is such an amazing producer, i cant wait to see them get the respect they deserve

[@Bootlegsupercar]

They are 100% perfect pop music. So danceable, so cryable, so visual. Hope we can see a reaction to Saves the World or at least some more hits like Stayaway and I Know A Place. Ty Troyyyy

[@analivia9045]

again, troy doing this one for the lesbians means a lot to me

[@beths_version]

“no long nails around here, if you get my drift” I AM CRYING TROY OH MY GOD 💀

[@formerfutur]

the instrument you thought was a processed vocal/horn in loose garment is actually guitar played with an ebow and then processed, jo and naomi went CRAZY with that one

[@Amber51296]

Their tinydesk concert from last week is amazing too! The country version of Silk Chiffon with live strings is magic ✨✨

[@rachelc9720]

They were my eras tour opener, I had never heard of them but they were all AMAZING PERFORMERS. It was amazing and I didn’t know any of the music. I fell in love with all 3 of them. Did even know they’re names or who they were but when I went home all I could say is muna is hot.

[@becki324]

The exact thing happened to me. Something lgbt happened to me during their opening set and now I’m obsessed.

[@CreativeWriter19]

Literally the same thing happened to me, and every week they open for her a new crop joins! They already have a "MUNA made me gay" tshirt but I think we need a "MUNA made me gay at the Taylor Swift concert" version 🤣

[@falna0002]

They opened at my eras tour too and besides silk chiffon I didn’t know any of their music but they were some of the best performers I’ve ever seen!! Even though that stage is huge they used up the ENTIRE thing I was so surprised by their energy

[@tortle719]

haha same i hadn’t heard any of their songs but i liked what i heard during their part

[@Johnmayerhateaccount]

I saw them last night and hadnt listened to them at all other than silk chiffon and now im in love

[@baileywalker1658]

naomi’s production is so incredible, they are a genius

[@CimFamxoxo]

if you ever get the chance to see them live DO IT theyre amazing

[@gracethome6959]

AGREE omg literally the best concert i've ever been to

[@pavi__97]

I'm sooooo happy you reacted to MUNA! They're criminally underrated in the electropop world imo. Every song they release has the same, magic MUNA touch that makes me feel every emotion so intensely 🤩 If you liked this album you should definitely check out their other two, cause they're just as good imo 👏🏻

[@mitchellhansen4189]

INSANELY UNDERRATED muna is my favorite band in the world, saves the world is in my top 5 fav albums of all time they are so fucking queer and smart and funny and good as making music. Also Troy getting pronouns right makes me so happy it’s so fucking easy to love this guy

[@willopeda8637]

As a lesbian, you are my favorite music reactor bc you serve us well with the music choices 🫡

runner’s high live is TRULY something else 😭🙌

the jo girlies are fed every time 😩🙏

[@witchy.business]

Omg i saw it in Dublin and my life was changed. It was already my favorite

[@MichellBollinger]

@@witchy.businessaugust 28th? boygenius openers?

[@Cloclo1125]

OMG FINALLY muna has been putting out banger after banger since like 2016... they deserve more recognition fr

[@eleonorec.4899]

So glad you liked it!!! MUNA is really one of a kind. I'd really REALLY recommend listening to their debut as well, About U is insane, not one skip and the pen is ✨penning ✨

[@annaaolivia]

YAYY MUNA RECOGNITION!! u need to listen to their debut “about u” it’s sooo good! i’m seeing them live this year 🫶❤️❤️

[@spinalc0rds]

seconding this sm

[@clairegopaul4977]

i saw them earlier this year and it was incredible

[@malayapress3205]

im in love with naomi’s musical MIND and was so giddy watching you react like this fhdgdhd

[@rileymelucci6564]

i think the bridge in stayaway would make troy implode like the sub

[@isabellaiorio3263]

It’s giving dad in a “free hugs” shirt at pride 🏳️‍🌈🫡

[@jamesbmadden]

I absolutely adore all of muna's album, so excited to see you finally react to this even if it took a year!

[@porpoisewithapurpose729]

MUNA nation welcomes you to gay church, Troy

[@moonriverinc7896]

The Japanese House just released an album called In The End It Always Does. she collaborated with The 1975, MUNA, Bon Iver as well as others so it's a fabulous listen even if you don't do a react video to it.

[@alyssa_blackheart]

This is how I expect every friend of mine to react when I show them Muna

[@HumanCapybara]

MUNA is great! their last album was in my heavy rotation for a long time.

[@DavidChippa]

king! thank you for reacting to this one. would love if you also did their second album, muna saves the world! you will SOB! x

[@bethhenderson9783]

every album is 8 different genres and naomi absolutely KILLS.

[@loverboy42O]

the gays shoutout padam padam mix at the beginning you are so UNSERIOUSSSSSSSSMSDFNDF

[@foxesamu]

You GOT to do their second album from 2019 (Saves the World). It might be even better than this one, with more sonic variety

[@saadhami10]

yeah tbh i liked saves the world much more, feels like their magnum opis

[@Rubz3211]

please do their others too!! loved this one

[@katierotuno8600]

Your reaction to “Runners High” the ACCURACY!!! 😂. Their 2018 album “Saves the World” is my favorite! but this self-titled album has bop after bop. Finally got to see them at the Eras tour in Cincinnati. and they were everything and more! Cannot wait to see them pop off and get more recognition!

[@kiss3s4n3ss]

How does it feel to live my dream? MUNA and tay

[@nicolekelter4275]

You should check out their cover of "My Heart Will Go On." It's kinda bluegrass/folk and it's absolutely GORGEOUS. Also, I challenge you to react to their first album and tell us how long it takes you to cry. (It's beautiful but absolutely heartbreaking.)

[@elizalikeyarn]

watching this straight man throw ass to MUNA has solved world peace

[@katelynpreble3248]

I am so obsessed with MUNA after seeing them open for boy genius yesterday and I am excited to say this obsession will NEVER go away.

[@strawberik]

YES! I love MUNA and can't wait to watch you react to their album! It's so good imo. I hope you end up loving it!

[@sevenseatcinema]

Finally someone giving MUNA the respect they deserve. I’ve loved them since 2016 and their production and songwriting is fucking top notch. Katie Naomi and Jo are such incredible artists!!

[@fashionjackie]

MUNA is one of my favorite bands 💜 just saw them at Bonnaroo & they’re beyond amazing live!!

[@tylerleydig]

Dude THANK GOD you reacted to MUNA. They’re so good and so overlooked in the reaction community

[@Rep1313]

MORE Muna please!!! Their Tiny Desk Concert and for sure Saves The World album.

[@wyndlechairgarden]

Ahhhh! I love them so much ❤️ so glad you enjoyed the album !

[@mxonyx]

[@meggmaxson]

katie’s pen is blessed by the gods

[@Bootlegsupercar]

I’ve been asking for so long… finally…. I win….

[@GwenisImmune]

i cant believe how i didnt like runners high initially and then 6 months later im like what the fuck this is great 😭

[@Natalanium]

Was a big fan of Muna back in 2016/17 when about u was released but for some reason never listened to their newer stuff... UNTIL NOW! This shit absolutely slaps thank you for reminding me how much I love them. Doing beautiful things for the gays x

[@ohdearohdear]

Troy, you look like so much fun to hang out. Everytime I watch your videos (even the sad ones), you seem to have fun all the time.

[@aquacrystal03]

can't believe I missed this stream😢 so happy you reacted to them!❤

[@tylerjohnson-nf2sx]

A perfect no skip album.

[@tylerjohnson-nf2sx]

Shooting star live was life changing. Loved it on the album but then hearing the ending live where it just goes off CHANGED ME

[@tylerjohnson-nf2sx]

Please do more of their music

[@michellerobinson5677]

[@esel7380]

Hi Troy! I would like to recommend the album Blue Weekend by Wolf Alice, an English rock band,. They are one of my favourite bands and their latest album is amazing. I was first introduced to them when they opened for Harry Styles last year on tour! Great reaction and review as always!
