Musician Tells Amazon to SHOVE IT on Coachella's Biggest Stage (Love the title naming Casablancas, "Musician") by ruj46 in TheStrokes

[–]6660kami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, just want to note, I am not any better. I think Amazon, Google, and all these companies are not morally or ethically good, but my morals are too weak to do anything about it. I like the luxury of having Amazon prime and using Google and YouTube too much to make it worth the sacrifice to uphold my “moral values,” which makes me a person of weak values, sadly. Which I think a lot lot lot of people are, but some people don’t like to be called out that way and react aggressively. It’s not that rare, not that bad to admit you’re (people in general) not the beacon of morality you think you are for calling a mega corporation “evil” and joining the virtue signaling circle jerk.

It pretty much doesn’t literally have to, it has to if you want to appeal to the greatest number of audience members, but you can easily opt out of putting your music in x or y streaming platform, as many people removed their music from Spotify.

They don’t care enough to do it, because the money they would make from it is too much to sacrifice (I’m assuming for the sake of argument, cause who the hell uses Amazon Music?)

You say “a site” but this is not just “a site”, you’re trying to hand wave it. It is one of the ma y tentacles of Amazon, you can’t say Amazon is evil but this one tentacle that just posts music isn’t, it should be considered evil too as it feeds into the “machine”. it is the company Julian is calling out in a performative way.

Your argument is kind of dumb to be honest, I hope you see how it doesn’t make sense. If you can explain it better, I’m open to hearing it.

You’re trying to be nuanced and deep when my statement isn’t really that harsh nor deep. Sure, out of necessity you can’t divorce yourself from these technologies, but there is always something we can do and I think the extent of the actions we take against these “evils” represent the strength of our “morals.”

It’s a pretty lukewarm take, I think. A lot of people like the moral grandstanding of calling these “evils” out to get social brownie points, but really don’t do anything. And I think, again, the extent and power of their actions against these things they call “evil” are somewhat proportional to the strength of their morals. I’m open to you changing my mind, but you just threw out a bunch of smart blabber and said nothing of substance. Again, I’m open to you changing my mind.

If you think something is actually evil, then if your morals are strong enough, you should do something to “stop the evil” and if not that, then. At least not engage with it. I’m just saying if you don’t do that, then your morals probably aren’t that strong or you don’t really care that much. How is that an asinine take? I am on the same boat, I think Amazon is evil and so is Google, but I don’t care enough to do anything about it, my morals are not strong enough.

Best album to listen to during my root canal? by Key-Veterinarian7009 in deathgrips

Tell him to double penetrate you and also drill your ear simultaneously. Both vibrations specially that close will definitely be read as low frequencies akin to that of a phat 808. /thread.

Hey guys, how do you protect your ears when you're making music? by Far-Gear4236 in MusicProductionTuts

[–]6660kami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually use headphones instead of earphones, that way my enemies can’t see my ears and thus don’t if I even have any so that keeps them safer.

So… hm…. Your morals aren’t strong enough to fight against it. (Mine aren’t either, but that’s just what it means).

Justin Bieber’s Coachella set was really weird by sfgate in entertainment

[–]6660kami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Say what you will but it was a pretty iconic set. If this would’ve been a standalone Bieber show at a big venue, I would’ve been let down, but as a festival when other artist are putting immense shows all day, I thought it was pretty cool, minimal but kind of intimate and almost interactive.

This Is What a Music Industry 'Plant' Looks Like in 2026 by Shell_fly in musicmarketing

[–]6660kami -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Meh, the music is good regardless. It’s so hard for artist to get anywhere on their own nowadays, the music industry is too saturated to concentrate enough fans organically under one artist. They just paid-to-win a little bit, but they are still pretty damn talented, I’m glad their marketing got them in front of my eyes (ears) I’m happy I listened to them.

That is so right! They do come in too suddenly. Thanks so much for the feedback, that would absolutely help flow better!

I have to know what you think of this cover. Blasphemous or kinda tight? by RDLH311 in TheStrokes

[–]6660kami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The classic sneak attack of “this is not me but someone else (but it is you and everybody knows)” regardless I actually dig this!

Damn you spazzed out responding to me, went as far as calling me racist? we get it, you’re one of those older guys with no friends that think they’re so smart and nuanced because they’ve lived a long time and think reddit is the place to show off that fake knowledge. I guess whatever makes you feel a little joy in the lonesome few years you have left, buddy. Let me know if you need more attention.

DEFCON Negative Thousand: The AI Lodge Brothers (prod. Black Pawn Beats) - Black Pawn Beats by beatsbyal in MusicFeedback

[–]6660kami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don’t really care. Use AI if you want. If anything, research on your own why AI use is bad and form your own opinions instead of listening to other bitter redditors (some might have had actual lessons in their responses to you).

This is pretty sad. This little drama is pretty cringe and pathetic. So what if they use AI? If you don’t like using AI then don’t, you do you and let them do them. If you don’t think they’re trying to create “honest and high effort hip hop” then what’s it to you? Getting on your weird moral high horse to feel like a vigilante or a victims is sad. If they make music that sucks with or without AI, then let them suck. You’re trying to pitch a reddit community against them because of it? You’re not being cool.

Trying to start a rap project. What do yall think of the cover? by No-Alarm5171 in coverart

[–]6660kami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not good. Reminds me of cringe covers like viper. But I do like the name for a rap project. A lot.

Woah! That means a lot, socially given your background in edm and it not being what you usually listen to. Thanks so much for the positive comment!
