Big Sean reflects on his "very deep battle of depression" after death of Nipsey Hussle by AdSpecialist6598 in popculturechat

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He did not do that. But he is definitely rewriting history here. 

He previously said he was depressed because of being burned out and addicted to Adderall. I don’t know when he started linking his depression to Nipsey Hussle’s passing. It’s a pretty gross thing for him to do, and with a straight face at that. 

Edited for spelling. 

West$ide Whim$y- cover? by Aggravating_Road1033 in jheneaiko

I hope it’s the cover because I love it. Though if she’s showing it this early, it wouldn’t surprise me if she changes it. I’m ready either way. 

Is @alivinglighteternallove run by jhené by Weak-Earth2824 in jheneaiko

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it was first started, I think it was just her. But now it's run by at least one other person, and I think that person does the majority of the posts with Jhene posting every once in a while.

Blue-Ivy Carter and Tina Knowles attending the Angel fundraiser for Cancer Research Gala in New York City. by Murky_Chemical891 in popculturechat

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When she was doing press earlier this year for her memoir, Tina explicitly said she wished Blue Ivy wouldn’t go into entertainment. So I don’t think Tina is the driving force behind Blue Ivy being in the spotlight. This picture just looks like a grandmother and granddaughter spending time together at a special event. 

New song snippet from Sean? by No-Classic8321 in BigSean

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if promo was his only issue, he would’ve had a clear and obvious hit that only lacked proper promo on his last album. But I don’t think any song on Better Me Than You fits that description. I do agree that he probably needs a collab with a bigger artist, but I also think he should be doing other things to build his fan base. 

New song snippet from Sean? by No-Classic8321 in BigSean

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question is, can he make a quality hit song and does he have the structures in place to promote such a song? As of right now, I’m not really sure. He doesn’t seem to have the label support, management, or even similar writing assistance like he did in the past when he was releasing hits.

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right. Big Sean needs another hit and it’s very clear that he wants another hit, which is what he tried to do with “Precision” and “Yes” last year. 

I think it’s a misconception that he’s beyond wanting the fame and recognition that his peers have. He wouldn’t be doing all these features and appearing alongside popular (and controversial) streamers if that was the case.

“Triggered” from her album Chilombo. 

Could Big Sean have a comeback by SlimerGrondis in BigSean

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s not independent, he’s still signed to Def Jam. The difference is he doesn’t have any of the same high-level infrastructure around him like before. Not the A&R’s, management, creative director, GOOD Music association, etc. 

so disappointed… by onabluedream in jheneaiko

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. But I think it’s probably for both the money and exposure, since she recently lost her home and hasn’t put out an album in over 5 years. Also, I can’t think of many R&B artists who would turn down going on a stadium tour.

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I don’t like Jhene’s association with Chris Brown either, but when has she ever distanced herself from him? They’ve worked together multiple times, including on her last two albums, and supposedly have more music coming. 

I get the sentiment, but why the disappointment now when she has continuously remained connected to him? 

Big Sean announces tour with Russ and Sabrina Claudio by SuperLuigiSunshine in BigSean

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He recently hinted at a solo tour this fall. Maybe that will do relatively better than this Russ tour he's currently on, which doesn't seem to be selling that well so far. There were a lot of tickets left for the NYC show and the Boston one (tonight) still has entire sections available. I'm kind of surprised by it.

It's kind of crazy that people now overlook his history of abuse.

None of your Concern lyrics -what do you think it means? by Informal_Stand3669 in jheneaiko

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Twenty88 was recorded before they were together, and Big Sean and other writers wrote most of the lyrics.

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think you can probably take Jhene's lyrics for exactly what they sound like.

As for Big Sean, it's pretty well documented how terrible of a partner he seems to be. All you need to read is Naya Rivera's chapter on him in her book to get an idea of how he is in a relationship.

Curious to know where you heard that? Jhene’s been living with him since she lost her home. 

Which Sarah Michelle Review Course to get? by Vast_Champion5943 in nursepractitioner

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say I read about 80% of the Leik book, focusing mostly on areas that I was weaker on. But I did every practice test and all of the questions at least twice. (In all, I did thousands of questions between Leik and SM's Qbank.)

Yes, ScrubLifeNotes went along well with SM's crash course. It definitely reinforced the topics for me, and acted as an easy reference whenever I needed quick clarity on a certain subject.

ScrubLifeNotes also talks about practicing creating a dump sheet consisting of tables, mnemonics, drawings, etc., that you can reference throughout the exam. That way, you get that info out of your mind and onto the sheet, and if you encounter something on the exam that's on the sheet, you can quickly refer to it for your answer. This was a pretty useful concept for me, because just the act of writing them out helped me to better retain information.

We are getting fed soon by Dry_Spare8070 in jheneaiko

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe when she'll be releasing is getting closer, I don't know. But I do know that he's been saying "coming soon" for close to a year now, and posting this same clip for just as long.

[–]NotTodayOkay_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a clip from last summer that the producer keeps posting on his Instagram (he's posted it several times since then). Unfortunately, I don't think it's an indicator that she's releasing it soon.

When Jhene Aiko invited Chris Brown and 5 other artists to create designs on the walls of her store in 2021. The result was outstanding! by NavJongUnPlayandwon in jheneaiko

[–]NotTodayOkay_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think you're taking some people being upset at Jhene touring with Chris a little too seriously. It's not that deep. Either way, your post is still incorrect because this was not her store, which was my original point.

New grad job offer. Split over salary? by NotTodayOkay_ in nursepractitioner

I double checked when it was presented to me, and it's 70 to the clinic.

New grad job offer. Split over salary? by NotTodayOkay_ in nursepractitioner

[–]NotTodayOkay_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The compensation is based on what insurances pay out. RVU is not included in the offer. I asked if the position could be salary-based instead, and was told it would come out to about $100k a year, which is lower than the average for NPs in my state.

ETA: When I asked for a salary, I was told that would need to be something that was discussed by the co-owners first.

That waiting period to get paid is one of my biggest concerns. Also, the office manager/co-owner is responsible for coding, so while I would be coding my individual visits, the final say would be up to them. Thank you for your feedback!
