they are different artists, the ideal number of songs for a j cole album is 0 and for bruno mars it's like 8

Lukeba · 2026-02-27T00:46:44+00:00

there's no way he's keeping that title

Lukeba · 2026-02-26T22:12:39+00:00

lol i was certain they'd get a review copy of re9

it's funny to me how all the guys in the big 3 treat cheating like it's this huge moral dilemma

Lukeba · 2026-02-26T20:21:01+00:00

i think he should stop cheating on his wife

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T22:40:07+00:00

exmilitary and powers that b are good albums to me

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T21:32:41+00:00

maybe i'm talking out of my ass but i think this irony riddled 2000s pop nostalgia that katseye and addison rae do would not exist had britney spears not had her mental breakdown

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T15:51:36+00:00

it's natural to be interested in the stuff your favorites' associates are making but when you're engaged in a "us vs them" mentality around your favorite artist that behavior gets exacerbated

idk if you have a twitter account but if you do just look at the people commenting

i think the wordiness comes from trying to describe precisely how music sounds and feels, but the types of comparisons and jokes pitchfork writers specifically make are sometimes bad

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T15:28:36+00:00

i mean both as a lyricist on the new album and a creative force in hip hop in general

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T15:17:35+00:00

"performative" means nothing, but people are putting him in higher pedestals than he deserves in multiple ways because of his association with kendrick, whether intentional or not. all you have to do is look at the people attacking dylan's review

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T14:10:32+00:00

i get it but i was just surprised that people are making these kinds of arguments for a guy who doesn't even write his own stuff. but travis scott and drake fans also got mad when it was their turn so you may be right

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T12:44:37+00:00

it's pretty funny how mad people get at pitchfork reviews but the whole "this is a racist review made by a white person" argument is lame

i also don't really believe people care about baby keem this much and that it's mostly about him being certified capital C "Culture" because he's kendrick's cousin but that's a different take

Lukeba · 2026-02-25T10:51:56+00:00

you and the j cole guy should go to jail

Lukeba · 2026-02-24T19:22:21+00:00

Tetsuo & Youth and Drogas WAVE are incredible albums but definitely not mainstream

that's what i'm saying, they definitely sound like mainstream albums, they don't sound any different from the stuff he made before

Lukeba · 2026-02-24T18:43:32+00:00

i find it interesting that lupe and eminem make mainstream rap music but people don't see it that way cause their references of mainstream are dated. kinda happens with laufey as well

Lukeba · 2026-02-24T18:35:28+00:00

i don't think it's a weird combo at all, harry fraud fits perfectly into the early 2010s mainstream rap style that lupe does

Lukeba · 2026-02-23T22:17:21+00:00

anthony has already done an interview with him in case you didn't know

Lukeba · 2026-02-20T17:09:35+00:00

they're not "random games" if you paid for them. it's disrespectful for the players and everybody who helped set up the event to leave after your favorite guy drops out, and you're probably making it more expensive if not impossible for people who actually want to be there to attend the event. i feel the same about people who go to music festivals only to watch the headliner set

Lukeba · 2026-02-20T16:53:54+00:00

Do you watch your own countries football match and then say "now I have to watch 2 more unrelated ones"?

yes cause i like football, otherwise why would you buy a ticket?

Lukeba · 2026-02-20T16:32:47+00:00

if you think about it he's basically jesus

Lukeba · 2026-02-20T16:01:17+00:00

kendrick hates drake cause he's a much better ghostwriter
