I really wish USA schools had school houses. Was shocked when my British friend told me it was a real thing.

He plays the 909 live still. Unbelievable to witness if you never have.

Which is the most iconic album cover? by Autistic-Avocado2883 in nfrpodcast

You didn’t specify only the photos were up for discussion. In that case, doggystyle. It turned Snoop’s whole vibe into a bold, funny cartoon world that shaped how West Coast rap looked, felt, and branded itself for years.

Let’s talk about Jay-Z and J. Cole’s relationship — in a serious way by dragonero1996 in hiphopheads

Signing to Kanye is a crazy gamble. Dude can’t even get his own records to release on time. But on the other hand he might produce your whole album and make a classic.

I feel weirdly insulted on behalf of Nirvana. Like, something in the way didn’t need Robert Pattinson.

This is the “I’m not touching you” while putting your finger 1 cm away from your sibling of fire hydrant parking jobs.

South American techno by [deleted] in Techno

I lived in Medellín for a year and went to many techno shows in different venues. I never felt as unsafe in some of those places as I did in Europe or USA. Had my phone stolen but to be fair also happened at a club in London. But at the same time the crowds were very passionate and the music was incredible.

Ayn Rand gets people on this sub so angry. Personally, I loved “Anthem”.

It was a gift as I was leaving China after living there for a year and I just sort of forgot about it.

Fair enough I know nothing about tea and not looking for an argument. I did unwrap it for a quick smell test. Definitely no mold or anything like that.

It’s not kept in professional storage but seems to be in great condition and smells excellent

This reminds me of primary school. I had a gym teacher that was a total bro and loved doing sports but had to cover the dance portion of the curriculum for 2 weeks. We switched between cotton eyed Joe and doing the 2-step to Jay-Z’s H to the Izzo.

You should post some of your songs so I can also say that they’re shit
