This is better than it has any right to be and I’m ready to give this record a fair chance.
And before you say “well actually I”...I’m a trans Latinx person so I win any argument by default.
Lmao Ancient Internet Proverb “It’s no excuse, I have never said the N word in my life. Ever. “ - anonymous white person online who has met 3 black people in the entirety of their life.
From NYC area and can confirm they do and those people should sink into the Hudson River with the rest of Staten Island. You’d be shocked how over 20 years later, despite the mountaining evidence of a pattern of behavior being revealed throughout this past decade online, cops and firefighters from NY are still butthurt about that one song.
Taylor put out 6 different physical versions of her last album or two and now we’re getting different versions of her first 6 following the Gordon Gecko philosophy of how to release music. Seriously though T, just move on and come out the closet already. (Although calling it now, announcing that is her PR ace in the hole if this re-recording idea doesn’t land)
Hey, they’re HER songs! let her cheapen her legacy for licensing bucks...we all know that Taylor is just like us and isn’t doing super well financially lately...
Yes! Not all autistic people are non-verbal children! We also comment on Stereogum!!
remember when I was like “Sia is trying to jump on the Shia thing so she can skirt the controversy and public backpack regarding this turd movie” and I was absolutely right and you were all “Sia would NEVER”?! Now that it’s nominated, she can bring it up and apologize... I love music but I’m trying to tell you people...these celebrities...they are not human beings like you and me...they are when the disease of narcissism wins.
Oh yeah, we can all still enjoy King of the Beach and Afraid Of Heights even though Nathan is now King of the Heights.
One of those guys I am glad I dodged getting into at the turn of the 2010’s and instead listened to...actually nah I was listening to Wavves and Kanye so really nothing is sacred or matters anymore lol
I don’t listen to of like Ariel Pink btw, he seems like a real scummy turd and I believe his victims but the allegations against him aside...there was more articles on here about him being a Trump supporter than there were when DaBaby punched a woman in the face on camera or was having concerts in the middle of the pandemic.... I like DaBaby’s shit, especially when I’m working out but something has gotta give here.
Looking forward to the day when abuse against women isn’t defined in a sideline as simply just “bad behavior” for musicians who aren’t just white dudes. I like DaBaby’s music btw but the fact that you guys are promoting this guys new song while simultaneously crucifying Ariel Pink is real gross to me.
Beach Slang was last decades “Garth Brooks filling the hole of Bruce Springsteen in the 90’s” except it was for white dudes who had already listened to Celebration Rock 200 times and needed something new
Every Apple+ show that gets announced not only doesn’t convince me to sign up for Apple+ TV...it makes me actively avoid it as an option altogether.
Yeah, this is pretty much what I was trying to say. Women have done this to me before multiple times and it totally is a shitty thing. Idk if I’d go around telling everyone they abused me though... Is it possible I just believe Shia is a piece of shit but I also believe Sia is a narcissist trying to jump onto the victim train on the coattails of something truly traumatic after her little autism movie thing turned public perception against her. It’s pretty transparent to anyone with a brain.
Ugh, Sia is the worst. Imagine seeing the horrible stuff FKATwigs posted about, which I totally believe, and then jumping in like “same, he lied to me about being single”. Yeah... that’s the same Sia.
Kanye won the battle with MBDTF but all he’s given us this year is a Joe Rogan episode where he makes Joe look like a genius by comparison and proof that he’s a soulless rich POS with this. Taylor Swift dropped two albums. In 2020, she finally won the war.
SNL sucks but this one was pretty good, not gonna lie.
Notice how none of these artists have anything bad to say about the Grammy’s when they ARE nominated? Seriously...fuck these spoiled children. Who cares about The Grammys? There’s a fucking pandemic. Drop dead.
I was born in ‘93 so Kanye was huge throughout middle school and high school. When he dropped this during my senior year, it felt like a lot of things reaching their peak. Everyone was freaking out about this album. Whether buying the CD/vinyl, blasting it out their cars, or even just digging the singles, it was a huge event. Very few albums hit like that in my lifetime. There are albums that are classics or released during our lifetimes that we all love and consider classics but then there are some that just shake the Earth. I’ve only experienced a handful in my life but MBDTF is a great example of that. I’m talking about those records that seem to cross every generational and cultural line and become a phenomenon but yet...it makes sense because the album actually is groundbreaking and perfect. Adele’s 21 and American Idiot are two other examples off the top of my head. I’ll never forget hearing the beat drop on Dark Fantasy for the first time (after all of the GOOD Friday songs and singles hyping us up) and knowing everything would be different when everyone heard this. With the fracturing of culture due to the Internet becoming such a mainstream part of life, these moments happen a lot less sadly but never the less...it is why we love music.
Has there ever been a winner who isn’t Scott? The game is RIGGED
great user name bud. New and improved Stereogum means new and improved StupidAsshole but unfortunately still same majority white commenters trying to act like they know everything about race by regurgitating bad Twitter takes. (I hate these racist conservatives as much as the next sane American but be prepared for a lot more of this condescending white liberal speak towards you now that they’re emboldened by the Biden win and don’t have Trump to constantly shit on anymore.)
lmao dude took Viagra and got “A Spike Lee Point”
In case you didn’t want to read, it’s same as usual. LDR fans desperately need a hobby and are furious that the person they stan doesn’t immediately respond their every day complains. LDR seems chill and she makes good music but she has one of the worst music fanbases of the 21st century.
Yeah I honestly don’t know why Obama is giving this idea of black people voting a bunch for Trump any credibility. It’s a stat that doesn’t matter especially considering Trump LOST.
Oh and btw. Fuck any POC who voted for Trump. The truth is, there IS no excuse for it. Rap music, culture, anything....nope. If you’re a POC and you voted for a guy who couldn’t denounce white supremacy then yeah...you’re a fucking idiot and you deserve to live in this America.
Since everyone here is so in touch with the black community (lol), what’s the reason for black people voting Trump then? Or are you all just mad cause you can’t call them racist but you also can’t call them uneducated. Yikes what a progressive bind! Raekwon and countless other rappers called themselves the black Trump before he became president. I don’t like Obama but quit acting like this is such an out of pocket statement. Tired of white people telling black men how to discuss their own communities. Fuck. Off.
Damn y’all beat me to it. So proud of this community.
Moz is a shitheel but I bet you his label is doing that initiative because all labels and studios have been doing them the past few years and they’re both cool but also patronizing, tokenizing and stupid horseshit. That being said, I don’t think there’s one person who is like “hey there’s not enough songs by Morrissey!!! Just retire. You had a fun. Get a hobby and don’t lament a diversity initiative getting in the way of your “reissue repackage repackage” you hypocritical twat.
Lol yeah it’s Weeknd>Drake>a ball of actual corn>Nardwuar>Lin Manuel Miranda.
RIP Chet. Not sure what to even say. Girls were a big band in HS/college for me. Whenever I think of Album, I’m instantly transported to 2009 and wow what a different time. There are just a lot of memories and emotions tied to it all. The Lust for Life video/ending guitar lick. Listening to Album the last time I visited Fire Island a decade ago. Hearing Heartbreaker on a car ride home from college with my friend Catie who is on the west coast now and who I dearly miss. Buying the Father, Son, Holy Ghost CD and having it in my dorm room. Remember just how short life can be. Hope you’re all well and my prayers for Chet and his fam.
LOL I know it isn’t a Bunk line, just a general reference from The Wire...don’t worry I didn’t get my black guys confused lmfao. I’m currently watching Fargo Season 4 with Mayor Royce! (Ok I don’t know all the actor names...)
Hope this movie isn’t SHEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIITTTTTT
This is exactly what the world needs right now...
Yeah that comment is basically canon now. Sun Giant EP is a 9.5 too.
If I make an Oasis joke here, will you guys be able to Roll With It?
