on MY own at like age 12* gotta stop commenting on here before I’ve had coffee
would also arguably be something kids fucked around with on tiktok if they had access to it, given that i was doing mashups + stuff w acapellas and instrumentals on their own at like age 12
does this mean that big acts will start putting out promo cds again with the acapellas/instrumentals right on the disc so producers/djs can do their mfn thing
unlocked and unlocked 1.5 were out of this world and Kenny gonna be on this album too 😭 WELCOME THE FUUUUUUCK BACK DENZEL
DearCharli — thank you. 💜
hi everyone! this is the last chance i get to make this comment before 2022 so here i am. hope no one’s noticed my absence from the commentariat; insert the usual “social media was fucking with me & i needed time away” soliloquy here. it’s (almost) 2022, just delete the fucking apps off your phone sometimes. i’d like to take a moment to shoutout some people on here, sorted alphabetically: clang dansolo fkacody ShadowMorpheus StarkyLoveMD timescreamer you beautiful bastard. yall are some of the people i’ve had the most genuine dialogues with on here, spanning the whole gamut from extreme gay shit to disability to the GECCY movement. nothing but love. 💜 (if your name isn’t here and we’ve had good conversations over the year, go ahead and 😉 in replies) i had a really fucking hard time getting into anything new with the stuff i’ve been dealing with over the last year. regardless, according to my replay 2021 [edited for new releases only]: 1. erika de casier — someone to chill with 2. magdalena bay — you lose! 3. billie eilish — happier than ever (i don’t relate to you, tom!) 4. smerz — believer 5. tyler the creator — HOT WIND BLOWS (ft. lil wayne) 6. lil nas x & jack harlow — INDUSTRY BABY 7. bicep — apricots 8. basside & SOPHIE — CRAZY EXPENSIVE 9. olivia rodrigo — good 4 u 10. hildegard — jour 2 and boy, did i spend a lot of fucking time listening to SOPHIE. i still think about her every single day. SOPHIE, i love you, and i hope you’re hosting the coolest fucking raves wherever you are. listening to what fraction of the sounds we have from you makes me feel…just like we never said goodbye. ❤️‍🩹 there really isn’t anything quite like stereogum on the internet anymore. i’m so grateful for its existence, for all of the people who keep it running, and all the people who participate out of a common passion for music. may the new year bring even wilder adventures—and may the new commenting system finally be bestowed unto us. (LMFAO) happy new year, everyone. 💜
i mean, “i am not a legend, i’m a fraud” works as a lyric when you’re trying as hard as Halsey is to look like Alice Glass
Fucking insane that Inflo is casually listed among the collaborators
Serious when I say this is within my top five of the year among first listen. I’m RARE as to put that stamp on an album after only one listen, but I gave myself the gift (as painful as it was in the interim) of not listening to any singles leading up—I wanted to experience the whole thing, in its entirety, as it was meant to be. It was worth it. (Yes, I was making comments on new singles as though I’d listened. All powered by stan energy; I’m here to gas them the hell up absolutely wherever and whenever I can. Stan energy, the most renewable form of energy there is!*) *not to be confused with Stan energy (proper noun), representing the type of Stan Eminem was originally talking about—the kind that, yknow, DDoSes a website and doxxes one of its editors
so that new magdalena bay album is pretty good don’tcha guys think
Dude is on such a fucking victory lap this year it’s insane. Not to mention his team-up with Freddie Gibbs last year. Just…🙏
JUST PUT IT OUT ALREADY PLEASE LEGENDS I don’t think I ever mentioned around these parts what my top 2020 listens were. A Little Rhythm And A Wicked Feeling was on repeat the entire year. I am so BEYOND excited for this.
Aye get the fkn bag Ashnikko, only recently discovered her through her MASTERFUL remix of Plastic Doll (can someone confirm how underrated of a Chromatica track that is?). Her new mixtape is so good. Playing the same stage as FlyLo too! Several acts to get excited about, all of whom released fantastic stuff in ‘20 and weren’t able to tour it. Too bad it’s across the country from me!
Fucking ugh. Only upvoted for how real this is. Throw that goddamn Billie finger in the air
thank you for typing something of substance beyond my stan energy 😂 seriously though. The GOP seems to have just become a ton of 4chan-level trolls, carrying the Trumpist cult far past its expiration date, and those kinds of people do see shit like this and just laugh. It’s disgusting. Representatives need to hear from the people they actually represent—not just celebrities who are able to say this kind of stuff while still being able to choose wherever they live, i.e. wherever is best for their own human rights. I just think it’s great that Billie showed up, acknowledging the people in Texas are the victims, and gave her fans (virtually none of whom I can IMAGINE being anti-abortion) the show they wanted. Hopefully she’ll follow in Lucy’s and Antonoff’s footsteps re: donating proceeds; hopefully she’ll encourage the same kind of contact that you’re encouraging. The Supreme Court has a far-right supermajority that has the potential to remain such for the rest of many of our lives. Don’t ever, ever forget that.

Alright, now that this hilarious fucker who defended MGK is in the bottom five, it’s time to let everyone know—I fucked up! I was conflating the Big E recollection with a much, much earlier incident at Warped, around ‘12 or ‘13. This is because my comment was in fact a recount of a friend who attended Warped back then! She told me the story, dude had just performed at the Big E then, I surprisingly didn’t put it together that this friend has zero desire to see MGK anywhere in 2021, so here I am #exposing myself cause I love y’all. Either way, dude’s been gettin booed offstage for almost ten years. Quite a thick skin he’s got! Still sucks ass though.
Not a controversy, just me being of a younger time and also having a particular dislike for Eminem/a ferocious love for Kendrick. I can at least admit when I’m being bitter 😝
Started cackling when I saw Eminem in this pic on Nightly News. Promptly walked away. Now realizing that they put Kendrick fucking Lamar behind Eminem in 2021. Super Bowl can go sit in the goddamn time out chair
“in very uncertain terms” I really should’ve just proofread this comment at least three more times
laissez-faire* forgive me it’s late and I’m half-asleep/possess a lifelong need to correct any and all typos I ever make on the internet
it stops becoming a personal choice at a certain point and, even though our legal system doesn’t necessarily agree with this (though it might), there ought to be some responsibility on the part of the people managing his career as a touring musician—particularly when he’s saying in very uncertain terms that he’s not well. I’m not here to shit on you, I didn’t downvote either of your comments, but Peep’s death is indicative of a larger pattern (going back decades) in the music industry of labels being very lassez-faire when it comes to their signees doing extremely addictive drugs while touring, usually as a coping mechanism
goddamn, a comment we can all agree on, don’t see that often around these parts
nothing says “punk” more than actively contributing to the worst pandemic in the history of this country’s existence 😉
i’m crying i love that you made an account just to respond to this
Not the only place this has happened recently. He played in western Mass on the 17th (which seems to be before all of this even started?) and…yeah, the exact same thing happened. Man’s not doing too well! Unrelated anecdote: some fuck with a MAGA bracelet tried to start a “fuck Biden” chant; everyone around them put in their part to shut them up. There’s a weird mix of radical progressives and “defund Democrats, impeach Biden and Harris” (actual sign I’ve driven by) people around here.
nah but on a serious note, is there any sorta kim/kanye parallel to be drawn here? I’m not even declaring that there is, especially because I didn’t exist when Nevermind came out (nor when Kurt was alive in general), just kinda spitballing in terms of the spouses of men whom popular culture elevates to an image of sainthood
i feel like 2 out of 3 stereogum comments are made while high but maybe that’s just (you and) me
I’m pretty sure you make enough good comments that your chances reset like every 5 times (plus the username/comment synergy is too golden this commentariat wouldn’t be the same without it)
oh my god FINALLY MISS MARK !!!!!!!!! the wait for a debut from her has truly been torturous I’m so happy
PTM and alt-J (sorry, Δ) hitting up fucking MSG together is the most unspeakably 2013 thing to happen since 2013
to be fair, anyone alive in 2021 who made a promise about something two years ago has not followed through on it, we’ve had some mild distractions since then
Thanks for letting me take care of you tonight! Also, I signed the back of your receipt since I hear you are all such big fans!
FUCK, i accidentally downvoted this God-given wisdom, thank you so much thiscity
PLEASE let them take over pop music already
