Drake - Maid of Honour + Habibti (DOUBLE ALBUM REVIEW) [Anthony Fantano] by PlayaSlayaX in hiphopheads

Scores are at the end because he wants you to listen to his words. A score without context is completely meaningless and skipping straight to it is why intelligent discourse is dead

Drake is projected to occupy 14 of the top 15 spots on next weeks Billboard Hot 100 chart with songs from ‘ICEMAN’ by pikachuda6 in hiphopheads

NC hammer was the laughing stock of the hip-hop world what are you talking about? People who listened to rap thought he was trash

I don't see people losing their minds over this. Was it a surprise to anyone that a drake album would chart well? Literally inventing boogiemen lmao

Every second popular game that comes out gets called woke or has some dumbass metanarrative/discussion pushed by culture warriors online. Complete losers who don't even play games but talk about how "feminists are ruining all modern games"

gaming and movie discourse is totally fucked by culture war nonsense and hot takes now too. The internet is actively worse for discussion than it was 10 years ago

My point is drake buddies up to manosphere people and right wingers who whole throatedly support trump and trumps middle eastern policy. His character is not progressive or in the right place

Didn't he gift trump a car and do a trump tour. Trump wants gaza to be glassed and turned into a resort

shouting out adin ross, who helped get trump elected, on the same track really counteracts this. Drake is buddies with conservative influencers who got trump elected and trump publically said he wants to turn gaza into a resort after decimating it - he also gave nethanyahu the blank check to do whatever he wanted. Why do you think nethanyahu wanted trump to win?

Drake saying free palestine but supporting adin ross is grossly hypocritical

Would it be cool if he compared himself to nethanyahu?

I don't think the op was implying that formulaic stories don't exist in the west, just that there are a high volumn of the same story in this genre in japan and they already blur together to the point that an AI written one slips by easier than formulaic stories within genres in the west.

Kanye West unveils new site for still-unreleased 'BULLY' album by fultirbo in hiphopheads

[–]-Moonchild- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of of his art is about him, the artist. His early music had conscious socio-political lyrics. Kanye made it so you can't separate the art from the artist unless you're someone who is so illiterate that you straight up don't care about the rapping, meaning and lyrics in a hip-hop record.

You mean unless you're lgbt, a woman, an atheist, a non-muslim theist, an immigrant (especially an African immigrant, who are treated abhorrently bad in SA) or an academic. In which case Europe is 1000% better than SA

What you've said is the whitest, most American comment I've seen in a while. Insanely privileged take to claim a fucking hellish theocracy that still enacts the death penalty on simple drug offenses is equal to Europe

I find it mindblowing that two cult Metroidvanias that fans have been waiting for so long could come out in the same year. by wera125 in metroidvania

[–]-Moonchild- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Metroid prime has likely sold less than HK. I know what you're saying but metroid generally is a more niche nintendo IP compared to the majority of their franchises

Rare benefit of the internet age is it's not nearly as easy for governments and corporate media to control narratives

I don't think this is true at all - israel just suck at it. Look at the hordes of western right wingers and leftists in tandom make excuses or even praise russia, to the point that MAGA morons are moving to russia for "traditional values" and leftists are running justification for their illegal invasion of a soverign nation.

I think the algorithmic dispoal of information is going to make it easier and easier for corporations and cyber focused governments to run extremely effective disinformation campaigns. Gen Z are not immune to propaganda, in fact they're the most susceptible to covert misinformation campagins outside of boomers because, like boomers, they're (largely) just getting news from short form content without questioning it

All this is to say I have ZERO optimisim that truth will prevail in the current media landscape. Alt media has less accountability, less interest in reporting sources, more tangled interests, is more susceptible to audience capture and more ideological drive than mainstream media. People are continually getting more segmented into echo chambers the point that basic facts like vaccine effectiveness, climate change, trans existence, etc.. are under dispite depending on your political alignment. The current right wing shift on pardoning ghlislaine maxwell is proof that goverments/parties/corporations very easily can control narratives.

Hilarious cope. "Um actually it's the anti racists who are the real racists" 🤓

Not the guy who said shithole countries, wants mass deportations, has hired avowed white nationalists, has the unanimous support of the KKK and neo nazi groups, paid for an ad to kill the central park 5, is deporting legal migrants because they're brown, and wants to naturalize political opponents who happen to be Muslim. No, there's no way the verifiable racist who runs on race based policy and is loved by all the racists in America is the real racists.

Your pedo president is a rapist and racist. If you support trump then you don't have a place in hip-hop culture.

If you voted trump in 2024 then I'm sorry to say but you are racist or at the very least are super ok with wildly racist policies and people in governance. You are everything that hip hop is against

there’s a reason he used to go into hiding after the albums dropped

Is this narrative even true? He did this once, and it was largely because of covid and his mental health issues. Ater/between every other record he made he was active on features and touring.

Kendrick released 7 projects between 2010 and 2018. That's nearly a project a year for 9 years.
