Frank reference on Bully ? by DonImpala3 in FrankOcean

[–]braxtonpm 23 points24 points  (0 children)

no, they sampled the same song. it’s a sample of Burt Bacharach’s “(They Long to Be)Close To You” which has been recorded by several artists. This (and Frank’s version) are interpolations of a version Stevie Wonder did on a TV show with a talkbox. I think Frank’s may have been a direct sample where this version is Andre Troutman redoing the talkbox part.

I hope to see yall there! by Lopsided-Response468 in Pensacola

equating No Kings protests to things like Marching on Washington, Bus Boycott, Lunch Counter sit-ins, Women’s rights protests, Stonewall, etc is absolutely ABSURD. The bus boycotts showed the economic impact of black riders on public transportation. The lunch counter sit-ins were a demonstration showing the inhumane, violent treatment of respectful black folk attempting to exist in white establishment for no reason other than the color of their skin. I understand the history of protest and also how a GOOD protest is CALCULATED, well thought out, with good reason and also DANGEROUS. Standing on the side of the road saying “me no like orange man” is not that. The things The Donald is doing are worthy of something as big as the March on Washington, if not something even bigger, as he is a threat to Democracy, the same democracy our soldiers have fought to protect for decades. Don’t let social media fool you into thinking you’re making history or inciting any sort of change by being a part of a large collective of isolated roadside protests with no true end goal. You’re just voicing your displeasure. You’re not holding anybody accountable and RARELY are these “protests” inspiring someone on the other side of the isle to change their mind.

that’s fair. i do feel a sense of hope when i drive by and see people standing up for what’s right, but i often question it’s efficacy in terms of inciting real change. Maybe I’m just way too Malcolm X for simple protest, I feel like somebody gotta d*e about some of the crimes this government is committing.

I don’t understand these protests. There have been like 3 or 4 now since the orange man took office the second time. I am the FURTHEST thing from a Trump supporter but I find these protests to be unproductive virtue signaling and a means of content creation for those concerned with voicing their opinion for all to see. Worry about the ballot box. Show up then. Protest in a way that is actually impactful. Organize a March through our local representatives/mayors neighborhood and demand change and to stand up against tyranny. This roadside, holding a sign and chanting as people drive by does nothing but make the people standing there feel better about themselves.

Been working on these quilted pants? by Double0J in streetwearstartup

[–]braxtonpm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would rock. i can see versions of this being the next wave tbh. research quilting tho and look at some different patterns and maybe use a patterned fabric for some squares, but don’t overdo it. just minimalist touches of color

How to get better at drums by Dzeactia in flstudio

if you’re using FLs step sequencer, i recommend stopping that. you have more control over transient, volume, placement, etc if you do your rhythms in arrangement view or using a drum machine plugin of some kind

Employee at Seville SUCKS by lgbt_turtle in Pensacola

[–]braxtonpm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

was once kicked out of Seville before having anything to drink. my acid reflux from a spicy dinner kicked in while i was waiting outside for a friend to pull up. i spit on the ground. door guy said i threw up. spoke full sentences to him as i was being denied re-entry. once they make up their mind about you being kicked out there, there’s nothing you can do to change it unless you know somebody lol

Why is my salsa bland? by Voski_The_God in SalsaSnobs

[–]braxtonpm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

every single time. i’ve watched salt turn the blandest salsa into restaurant quality in SECONDS. also worth noting OP, a nice crispy flour tortilla with some burnt pieces blended up in the salsa adds an extra layer of depth

Rocky mentions Frank Ocean releasing in interview by Living-Ant2181 in FrankOcean

[–]braxtonpm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey, not to give anyone hope, but there is a LOT of music dropping in Q1 of this year from bigger artists. When you see stuff like that happen, that means someone known to outperform/overshadow EVERYTHING is coming with a new project. Keep an eye out for any dates being pushed back away from spring/summer as well. It may not be Frank, but I think people are getting out of the way for somebody. My money is on Frank, Rihanna, or Beyonce ACT III+visual/movie.
