| Well, Who is Lady Gaga? And What is MAYHEM?? Ft. The Biggest Little Monster (I know of) | 27 juin 2025 | 00:31:43 | |
In this episode of The Track Record, we welcome Aryan Mahajan, one of the most passionate and perceptive Lady Gaga fans out there. Together, we unpack the chaos, control, and catharsis of Mayhem and explore Gaga as more than just a provocateur or pop icon. What does it mean to live as both Gaga and Stefani? How does she hold space for trans queer fans through more than just the songs? And where was she, emotionally and politically, when Mayhem stormed into the world? This is a conversation full of grudges and gratitude, joy and judgment. For the fans who found healing in the Mayhem and the ones still figuring it out, this one’s for you. <3 To follow along with The Track Record, find the podcast on Instagram.

| we NEED to discuss this BTS album before they make the comeback of the century | 13 juin 2025 | 00:49:35 | |
In this episode of The Track Record, we unpack the mythic, mournful, magnificent world of BTS’ You Never Walk Alone, not just as a K-pop milestone, but as a coming-of-age novel in motion. From piano lullabies and mother-son tributes to crime confessions and cyphers of self-love, You Never Walk Alone dares to be both biblical and boyish, both a diary and a manual. We read each solo track as a chapter in a larger emotional syllabus, one that wrestles with shame, identity, masculinity, fame, and forgiveness. This is not a casual listen. It’s a love letter to the album that taught us wings hurt when they grow, that pain deserves poetry, and that no one, truly no one, walks alone.

| The Tortured Poets Department Isn’t Mid. You Just Hate Taylor Swift | In Defence of TTPD | 23 mai 2025 | 00:54:26 | |
In this episode of The Track Record, we defend The Tortured Poets Department not as a breakup album but as a lyrical reckoning with fame, femininity, and fallout. Written against a backdrop of post # SpeakUpNow backlash, billionaire paradoxes, and a world increasingly hostile to nuance, TTPD is Taylor Swift’s sharpest, most self-aware work yet.
From poetic courtroom drama to cosmic delusion, we break down why the album isn’t bloated, it’s brutally intentional. The real issue? Misogyny, parasocial scrutiny, and a cultural allergy to reading women deeply.
This isn’t a hot take, it’s a heartfelt plea to look past the headlines, listen with care, and let yourself feel the heartbreak, too.

| the BRAT episode. | 02 mai 2025 | 00:33:19 | |
In this episode of The Track Record, we dive headfirst into Brat, Charli XCX’s chaotic club confessional. From the thumping defiance of “Von dutch” to the existential vulnerability of “I might say something stupid,” Charli delivers a masterclass in self-aware pop stardom. We explore how Brat redefines authenticity, performs internet-age identity, and turns personal disarray into cultural commentary—one rave anthem at a time.
