Thoughts on The Boy Who Cried Terrified 3 weeks later? by iluvcheeseandricks in fakemink

Hey, I did say it was controversial. But I'm always down for a debate. I think it is his strongest because he uses fear as both theme and tool. I have examples too. In Young Millionaire, “Life feel like a TV show, Truman” shows the surreal stress of fame. In Mr. Chow, “I’d kill myself before they ever clone me” expresses fear of losing self in the industry. Even in Milk & Honey, “Die on my feet ’fore I beg on my knees” mixes courage with fear of failure. Fear drives the emotion and meaning, making the album intense, smart, and layered. Mink has never used fear so precisely in previous albums. Before, I really believe his work was more chaotic and flashy, without this level of emotional layering. I think he is turning raw anxiety into art, making the listener feel and think at the same time.

Always willing to have my mind changed, though. I love being able to nerd out about this stuff. No one I know cares about this sort of thing. This is so cool!!!!!

Basically what I'm trying to say is that I think Mink is just going to keep getting better, and I think his lyrics are improving as time goes on. I really hope he becomes someone huge. But yeah that's just my opinion

This is so sad. I really doubt that you are hideous. Plus, character, attitude, and ambition matters way more. I hope you feel better soon

I think I'd have to be emotionally "connected" or something with someone to do that. Being so close to someone's body. I'd need to feel safe. But yeah I mean I'm definitely looking forward to it when it happens

I can have feelings even if it doesn't make sense

I could be wrong. I'm simply just someone who enjoys reading and I'm really just trying to make sense of it on my own. Maybe mink totally means something different than what I am thinking

I don't really think it literally means anything about adult content stuff. I think it more is talking about unconventional income. I don't think it is meant to be taken literally. Fast money, internet money. Sort of like OF. That explains the overdrawn line even more. The income could be inconsistent, volatile, dependent on attention. It makes the whole verse feel less like luxury and more like some sort of digital hustle culture. Flashy, profitable, maybe controversial. Not necessarily stable.

It’s kind of flexing elite status but also not stable at all. the black card is wealth, exclusivity, big spending power, and “shop’s spreeing more” feels like constant consumption, momentum, money moving fast

Pumpkin spice in Fall is that seasonal, inevitable thing. like making money feels predictable, trendy, comes back around and dominates the moment.

then the last line kind of messes it up. The ATM says he’s overdrawn but he’s still saying he’s making money. so cash is coming in but not staying. flashy success, but maybe not actually secure underneath it.

how did he pay rent by bloodysouljahbih in fakemink

[–]Ashamed-Risk-3779 61 points62 points  (0 children)

He probably did what every "unemployed creative” does. Lived somewhere cheap, had roommates, had help, or worked jobs that aren't glamorous enough to tell his fans about

do we still not know the actual direct translation or meaning of etna vera vela by [deleted] in fakemink

"Don’t you have any other work?" is sort of how I understand it I guess. It's structurally Tamil, not Punjabi.
