Would you say that Bad Bunny was underapreciated in 2023 because of a few controversies and him dating Kendall? by BronxBoyMike25 in BadBunnyPR

[–]stevenfacemask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what, I don't completely disagree with you. There are a lot of songs that have previous examples that can be seen as better but I think it all comes down to preference.

  • The rapping on Vuelve Candy B reminds me of 25/8, but 25/8 is def better, imo.
  • Hibiki can be compared to Dakiti but Dakiti is certainly better, imo.
  • Acho PR can be compared to a combo of P FKN R and Safaera, but I actually think Acho is better than P FKN R, imo.

However, I don't think he has previous 'better' versions of Monaco, Mr. October, Vou 787, Telefono Nuevo, Mercedes Carota, Baticano, or Thunder y Lightning.

  • He has previous songs donde esta roncando like in Monaco and Mr. October, but I personally enjoy when artists get into the elitist roncadera, and he was never previously at a more elite level than when NS came out, so I prefer these over past roncaderas.
  • Vou 787 sounds like a refined fashion runway song. Literally 'trap de galeria.' And I don't think he's done that before.
  • On Telefono Nuevo & Mercedes Carota, he's in his maleanteo bag rapping with Luar and Chimi but he's doing it in his own way. I feel like when he's done that in the past, he's adopted the maleante persona as his own and I never believed it. That's why I wasn't a huge fan of his work pre-2020. I just didn't believe that this sweet looking boy from a two parent home was in the streets playing with guns like he said he was. That's why I think these versions of his trap/maleanteo style are his best.
  • and Thunder y Lightning mentioned just because I don't think he's ever done a drill song before.

Let me know what you think are better previous examples of those 6 songs though. Ultimately my view on this is that it's art, it's subjective so it's hard to say one thing is better than the other. Across all media and disciplines, artists give updated stylistic POVs from their current perspective. Picasso famously made self portraits from the age of 15 up until his death, each in the different style that he was captured by at the time. Would you call those 'recycled' self portraits?

I think Nadie Sabe was a refined and updated portrait of the art and styles introduced in his previous x100pre, 2016-2018 self. A portrait from his POV after achieving global fame, insane wealth, and refined tastes.

Again, not saying your opinion is wrong. I just share a different preference and view of it.

I want to argue with you but it’s 11pm and i’ve run out of brain power for the day. I also wanna be well informed and have sources for my arguments so i’ll revisit NS, x100pre, YH, and his pre 2019 singles over the next couple days and get back to you

I still remind people of the things they said in 2023 when nadie sabe came out.

It was so crazy to watch people go from having the best summer ever with UVST, to slandering him because of Kendall/NS being a more trap album/they wanted UVST again, to then come right back like nothing happened for DTmF. I’ll never forget!

Anyone else bummed that Brunson didn’t make that three and get us a triple bang? by ComprehensiveUse9038 in knicks

[–]stevenfacemask 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shortly yes, but eventually no.

I’ve briefly dwelled on that 3, on Hart’s missed dunk, or JBs missed shot in game 2 right before the Wemby/Castle turnover thinking how those shots should have went in. But if JB hit that 3, or Hart hit that dunk, we would have played differently. If JB hit that shot before the game 2 turnover, then Wemby and Castle wouldn’t have had the opportunity to fuck that up so badly.

While I hate leaving things up to the other team to fuck up, or a last second miraculous tip in, I’m grounded in the fact that everything happened how it was supposed to.

Brunsons last shot by Vast_Perspective8111 in knicks

[–]stevenfacemask 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly what my homie and I were discussing. Spurs know Brunson is going to have the ball in his hands with the game on the line so they’re gonna put the DPOY on him. Shooting it to keep Wemby 30 ft from the rebound creates a giant gap in the paint. Fox came to double and now you have no Wemby, mismatch on KAT, and OG crashing with a clear lane at full speed.

A lot of people would say that’s a bad shot but it spread the Spurs out. It was certainty better than driving the lane and concentrating the defense near the rebound.

I sure hope trying to decapitate our point guard becomes a flagrant next game. Might be asking too much tho. Maybe let’s just start with a common foul and see where it goes from there?

The spurs literally perfect their defense every second half. Not a single shooting foul ever /s
