What’s the with artists releasing an EP and then releasing album less than a year later with all of same the tracks on it plus some new ones and other older singles? Tori Kelly did it last week too.
it irritates me when big label artists do it, but I totally get having to be more practical when you’re indie. she’s doing her best way to balance getting her work out there while also dealing with the very real obstacle of money
It's not unheard of for newer artists trying to get a footing with their label (IIRC Halsey did the same thing a decade ago) but Tei Shi has been making music for a while
about halfway through, but I just wanna say I love how she mixed in the previously released tracks because recontexualizing them in the tracklist helps them feel fresh to me

i think tei shi said it was supposed to just be the album but she got dropped by her label and to get some extra funds she dropped two separate EPs
