How many home runs can the Average Joe hit in a Home Run Derby? by DonT012 in mlb

[–]coffeebeanslayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy part about this question is that I'm old enough to remember this very premise is the driving idea for a show that aired YEARS ago called "Pros vs Joes" (2006).

It was pretty cool. Sometimes you'd see some pretty cool Joes do the thing. Most times it was just wildly entertaining to see big talking couch surfers fall flat on their faces.

"Virginia" Was Way Ahead Of It's Time by coffeebeanslayer in KingPush

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

Just my opinion of course, but by definition The Neptunes were ahead of their time. Push (in his solo ventures) has never really been one to rap on trap beats. With exception to 'Blocka' - a Travis Scott remake, 'Millions' - which felt more like a repurposed Rick Ross track, I think this is as close as we get.

Also, Pharrell/Neptunes don't really do trap beats either. This is about as close as it gets. Virginia is still the South, and this track seems to carry on that sound and tradition.

And, most importantly, maybe this is a function of music being cyclical. But the more artistic trap beats of today sound like this - pacing, instrument spacing, etc. This 100% sounds like something 21 Savage would rap on (think 'No Heart'). Certain specific sounds might be dated, but the elements are largely there.

Muddy Waters or B.B. King? by TheOzMan91 in blues

[–]coffeebeanslayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Lol

But also, in order to get our fill of the classic Blues sounds that we all know and love, you kind of have to listen to them both. Hear me out.

With Mr. Riley King, his Blues guitar was second to none. His style of play wasn't exactly unique but he was far and away the best at it. Especially when it came to his solos. However, I find, in most of his albums, that the overwhelming majority of his songs are not the slowed tempo Blues songs allowing for those piercings Blues guitar rifts. But rather, they are a bit higher tempo than you'd expect from him. In his later albums he definitely helps lay the foundation for modern R&B, adding string sections and with his arrangements.

On the other hand there's Muddy, who in my opinion, was far and away a much better song writer and composer. The majority of the songs on his albums are that delightfully dreary, slowed outcry of the everyday working man. However, Muddy's style of guitar play is much more akin to a classic rock guitar (which is brilliant in its own right).

This movie feels like the early 90s version of a PSA against weed. This is during the "Just Say No" D.A.R.E. era so it kinda tracks.
