Last Friday, Oct. 25, Halsey released her fifth album “The Great Impersonator”. What sets this album apart from the rest? She was dying when she made it.   “The Great Impersonator” is a concept album, where Halsey takes on the persona of some of her favorite icons for each track, such as Dolly Parton, Cher, Stevie Nicks, David Bowie, and more. Lyrically, “The Great Impersonator” is all about her struggles with her health (she was diagnosed with Lupus and a rare T-cell disorder) as well as her relationship with fame, motherhood, and many other deeply personal experiences.   Luckily, Halsey was able to finish her album in its entirety, and the way she promoted the album certainly gained lots of attention. For the most part, people are praising this album for its raw emotion and vulnerability. Including those who didn’t necessarily listen to her earlier releases.   But Shaad D’Souza, an album reviewer for Pitchfork Magazine, was not very impressed with Halsey’s impersonations. D’Souza rated Halsey’s new album a 4.8/10, which is not unusual for a Pitchfork album review, but some things D’Souza said in particular, given the context of what the album is about, left a bad taste in fans’ mouths.         But Halsey didn’t let the bad review get to them! The artist instead took the few compliments Shaad gave the album, and compiled them into a poster, giving the impression that Pitchfork gave her a favorable review.       Sometimes you just gotta kill ’em with kindness!   (PinkNews)
