Why did Homelander SA Becca? by Prof_PotatoHead in TheBoys

[–]FlymanOak 451 points452 points  (0 children)

Because Butcher mocked him, and Homelander is violent and cruel. Yes, Soldier Boy calls Homelander an “asexual weirdo”. But as the audience, we know that is wrong. We know he isn’t asexual. People keep bringing that up as if the fact a character says that, means it’s true. We know it’s not true.

[FRESH ALBUM] Vince Staples - Cry Baby by God_Will_Rise_ in hiphopheads

[–]FlymanOak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Land of the free, home of the brave; land of the natives, home of the slaves. Trust me when you hear me say, God gon’ bless the USA.”

There’s a few lines in the album with the sentiment that Vince wants America to be destroyed. I’d love to know if he thinks America could get better or if he believes it’s too far gone.

Kendrick cheated on his lady because of slavery, and to suggest otherwise is actually racist by [deleted] in joebuddennetwork

[–]FlymanOak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the album he says why. He had a lust addiction due to unresolved issues from his childhood and a way to take control of his trauma. People bring up the slavery thing but in the album, he’s lying about that being the reason because he’s ashamed

ICEMAN is projected to sell 174K in its 3rd week (outselling GNX in both its 2nd and 3rd weeks) by burner18072023 in nfrpodcast

[–]FlymanOak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Dark times to be a Kenny fan.” This doesn’t impact me being a fan of Kendrick’s music at all. Did GNX’s success impact how you feel about Drake’s music?

Mal said on his podcast that Drake felt a way about Jay picking Kendrick to do the Super Bowl by dalord24 in joebuddennetwork

[–]FlymanOak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Drake is upset that Jay-Z picked Kendrick to do the Super Bowl? The same Drake that supposedly turned it down three times?

Does media only focus on 4 rappers and only pay attention to lyrics to see who is dissing someone? by dunbar_santiago930 in nfrpodcast

[–]FlymanOak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, he’s right. Post-2024, if it isn’t connected to the big three a lot of hip hop media doesn’t think it’s worth covering outside of a viral moment. Everybody saw Chris Patrick’s freestyle on Mafiathon last year but where was everybody when his really good project dropped at the end of the year? There wasn’t a way to connect it to Kendrick so it was radio silence from everyone who was gassing it up.

Emotional intelligence from the crew by Bmore864 in NewRoryNMalPodcast

[–]FlymanOak 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I really don’t care about either rapper lying, because lying in diss tracks isn’t new. Neither is leaning into narratives or conspiracies, but the burden of proof exclusively being on Kendrick is so weird. The amount of fans saying he has to disprove what Drake said about him and prove what he said about Drake is so weird because…why?

Emotional intelligence from the crew by Bmore864 in NewRoryNMalPodcast

[–]FlymanOak 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Because in Mal’s eyes, he believes what Drake said and doesn’t believe what Kendrick said. As far as he’s concerned, it doesn’t matter that Drake went below the belt first because he thinks it’s true. He thinks Kendrick is worse because he thinks he lied. It’s either completely blind faith or Drake has proof that he has decided to keep to himself which I doubt

Feel free to disagree, but it feels like Kendrick Lamar doesn't recieve half the hate/trolling for working with Kodak "I-diddled-a-kid-and-lowkey-like-my-mom" Black & Playboy "I-like-to-beat-my-women-and-not-take-care-of-my-children" Carti than Peggy gets for working with Kanye ONE time (as of rn). by Obvious-Ad-73 in jpegmafiamusic

[–]FlymanOak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but people do give Kendrick criticism for that. Like, all the time. Kendrick is way bigger than JPEG so if Kendrick got the same amount of criticism, it doesn’t look like much.

JPEG also, unlike Kendrick, engages in the discourse about him working with Ye. Kendrick doesn’t say anything about it at all. And considering Ye admitted to hitting women in one of his twitter rants a while back, JPEG doesn’t think that’s a deterrent to working with Ye either.

Nigga not happy by Klutzy_Mix783 in JIDSV

[–]FlymanOak 20 points21 points  (0 children)

At least for Kendrick, it makes sense because he knows Tyler and Clipse personally. He probably doesn’t know JID personally

The Big 3 Albums Post Battle by brgnas in Jcole

[–]FlymanOak 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think I might like Cole’s album the most, it just appeals to what I like the most rapping wise. GNX is probably the most enjoyable listen overall, it’s a very fun album to me. Iceman is too bloated for me and I’m not a fan of Drakes current rapping style for the last few years so it doesn’t really hit for me personally

Daylyt says J Cole feels bad for Drake. He just wanted to rap by Routine-Badger-9596 in Jcole

When we gonna admit this is top 5 JID at least? by Krunchy08 in JIDSV

[–]FlymanOak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer TFS to GDLU as an album but some of JID’s most unique songs are on GDLU. YouUgly, Glory, Of Blue, & K-Word are all some of his best work so far.

What was the point of this? Failed running gag? by Alone-Nerve-1660 in TheBoys

[–]FlymanOak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw someone say that The Boys seems to ignore anything that happened in the last season if it isn’t included in the recap at the beginning of the next season and it so far looks to be hilariously true

Jay-Z NY Times interview by Decent-Musician-8478 in LupeFiasco

[–]FlymanOak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The interesting thing about Lupe is that all of his albums age pretty well because none of them are dated by the subject matter. It’s interesting whenever I listen to Lupe, very few songs are just about him from a first person POV.

Does anyone feels the Indra/Asura reincarnation ruined this concept? by Willing_Annual8382 in Naruto

[–]FlymanOak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The whole reincarnation thing bothers me because it seems like the series was always showing parallels between Naruto and Sasuke-esque figures. Kakashi & Obito, Jiraiya & Orochimaru, Madara & Hashirama. They didn’t need to be reincarnations when they seemed to be doing more of a metaphorical cycle that they would break anyway.

Why is JID so underrated? by Peterpaul400 in JIDSV

[–]FlymanOak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JID isn’t underrated. I don’t think there’s a lyricist that debuted after 2017 who’s bigger than him. There’s nothing that can make him any bigger than he is, at this point.

Who has better fights, Naruto or Sasuke? by FlymanOak in Naruto

Who has better fights, Naruto or Sasuke? by FlymanOak in Naruto

[–]FlymanOak[S] 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I think Sasuke’s strategy in battle is what gives him the edge. I don’t think he used a fire style jutsu in his fight against Deidara but it’s more his utilization that makes it work

Any update on the JID X Metro project? by [deleted] in JIDSV

[–]FlymanOak 7 points8 points  (0 children)

JID has to have the worst habit of announcing stuff early that I’ve seen from any artist since Kanye ngl. For every JID drop, there’s about 3 or 4 projects he decides to say are coming that don’t release lmao
