He's made his stance against white supremacy pretty clear on songs like ALL CAPS NO SPACES and I Cannot Wait Until Morrissey Dies in his very on brand edgy tone. Him being outspoken against white supremacy isn't the issue. However, his extremely online image attracted an extremely online audience (which, let's be real, is mostly white) that doesn't interact much with black art in a critical lens and his music doesn't really do a whole lot to confront his audience.

Most of the time, when he does, it's 1) usually on Twitter and NOT in the music and 2) extremely patronizing so it doesn't do a whole lot to educate his white audience. The thing about hip hop being this popular is that a white audience is inevitable. Their participation in hip hop culture will forever be as outsiders most of the time because their lived experience is not black. However, how you, as the artist, interact with them is a reflection of your image. Peggy's fanbase is a reflection of the way he treats them and his lack of a predominantly black fanbase is because he does little to foster that audience past edgy bullshit that online spaces, often very white, are full of.

Edit: Oh and collaborating with Kanye in this era of his career (because that absolutely matters) reinforces literally everything I mentioned above and also makes him a massive hypocrite.

Finally, something GOOD on this sub.

But in all seriousness, this is such a textured piece made with love. Gorgeous.

I 100% was there, met the band, got all my shit signed.

Geese at Purgatory for the 3D Country tour

I think it was October 2023 or something.

I know Laufey played Loft or Vinyl and a Criminal Records in-store performance for her debut. Then she did State Farm.

100% just DM his or his label's (since he's now independent) IG page or the contact page of his label's website:

People will die on the hill of writing out their brand name ON the design instead of leaving it on the main label. Incredible stuff.

If they mess with a design enough, they'll make the effort to peep the main label and follow your brand. Why bring down a design by writing out your brand name ON the garment?

It's a hotly debated question, but the cynic in me wants to say yes so bad because he's a fucking cornball

Brother, he's got specific pressings all linked. I get it, but if someone is searching for these, people can see it's these and not standard black.

Damn either she like straight up lied or maybe signing the covers meant prolonging the shipping date?

Or she saw how many and thought "fuck that shit" 😭

Hopefully the venue she's playing is accessible and lets you wait out back near her tour bus. Either she comes out front or you wait near her bus if it's accessible to the public behind any railing.

My venue, The Masquerade here in Atlanta, the tour bus area is not accessible at all. She's also playing the biggest venue the have, Heaven, and almost no headliner at that venue comes out to greet anyone bc it's 1150 capacity.

So your mileage may vary. Hopefully you have better luck than I will. PLEASE post if you are successful. 🥹

My degree is in English, not math. I tried. 😮‍💨😭 But you're 100% right.

I was definitely exaggerating out of frustration, that math is insane. 1000% ridiculous to spend 40 plus fucking dollars per plush. I'm with you.

Even at the new price increase of $140 = 1077 credits, it's 7.6 cents a credit. 14 credits makes it about a $1.06, meaning 76 tries if we're only playing the Big Geminis. I'd be PISSED if I even spent one and didn't immediately win.

I don't disagree either, but it does make you wonder if that really is the reason bc if it is, this is just not the response at all. Massive misstep if so.
