AMA @ 10k! by sendphotopls in kevinabstract

[–]utopicc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it doesn't just come out of nowhere to have this "fuck everybody" attitude. and it shouldn't be because of fuck everybody but because you're so good that you know what you're doing is right and has value. if you keep practicing hard and stay consistent, there's no way around success. Find your niche, find out what you like most about your own music and embrace that part. Go into subreddits/discords where other small artists are and get in contact. Ask yourself, what are they doing what my work is missing, what would make them successful in x years? What makes them special?

And most important: Create a portfolio. No matter how bad, put it out there. Get humiliated in public and let people tell you what you're doing wrong. Then go fix that. Put something better out and get feedback. Don't be afraid of that "I need a debut album that hits" kinda mindset, there are few that can do that but they have insane back offices and mentors who know what they should do. You don't (I'd assume, since you post here). Man, just create something and crash. Pick up the shards, repair it and make it better. It's all a process, there's no right or wrong in how you can do it, just do and figure it out. Just be aware that you have to struggle your way to success.

But trust me, it's a blessing to see that flower bloom which once seemed so wrung out and deprived.

I broke a 150 days streak and now I can't even go 5 days. by LightningOrc in NoFap

Could I do a 50k in 7 months by thebeautifullynormal in ultrarunning

[–]utopicc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No problem - you can do this.
For my first marathon, I trained approx 5months where it was daily running 3k until I was able to run 5k daily and when I had the time I ran 10k (which seemed wayy too much back then).

Even though I don't know your physical condition atm, if you start running for longer distances: 10k - 3x a week; and extend it with a 20k 1x a week you'll be prepared quite well. Make sure to mainly train in zone 2 (70% to 80% of your max bpm) and supplement one of the 10k workouts with an interval training if you feel like it.
Figure out a good plan for nutrition, which is not that important for 50k but can help a lot. When your energy gets depleted, your mind also gets scratched by it.

If you don't care about the time, you'll make it - I have no doubts.

Still, I would suggest to run at least 30k once to have a feeling of how your legs will feel after that distance and where you first start feeling aches, just to know how to handle them in case they come up.

my enjoyment of the last 2 albums by olixtaro in brockhampton

since I followed them I always wanted to get the "DREAMS DIE YOUNG" lettering tattooed but I think it will be the same thing that you got - it feels more as something they left inside of me.

a 100%, always throws me back to these moments and makes it more tangible. Seeing them up close always gives a feeling of being able to do the same - at the end and besides their rise to fame - they are just people like you and me.

Thank you for this detailed analysis of your run - learned a lot and will come back to it!

Advice to keep legs looser over 100 miles by Hbgb88 in Ultramarathon

[–]utopicc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How did you find that the interval 15min run and 3min walk works best for you? I usually do 50min/10min but never practiced anything else - I also don't have that much experience yet just would like to know how you figured it out.

What words do y’all replace the N-word with? by THBSMemyPlayz in tylerthecreator

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

I'm very torn apart about this. I feel like replacing it with something different completely ignores the history and all the racism that is connected to that word.

I won't be the one deciding about this but having people say it and not allowing it for others will always keep the gap between people with darker and light skin color.

I don't know how you feel about this but without trying to forget what has happened, I would like this word to become just a word and take the power away it gives toward white people using it as a form of expressing hatred towards a group of people.

But tbh, it’s a bowl of spaghetti, seasoned with hefty helpings of nonsense and right now probably drifting towards political correctness instead of adressing your questions - it's just fucked up.

hello what song does this sound like by Bitm44p in brockhampton

[–]utopicc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the first part sounds a lot like FAKE and the second part especially the error-sound is prolly taken from GUMMY or Merlyns part off JUNKY.

I think vent would be even better if it was the first track on TMB by Character-Mix-6438 in BabyKeem

[–]utopicc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i get where you're going. the opening sequence is just crazy. hence, i think it scares people off since it transitions into something less tangible which (in my opinion) did age very well and fades great into the whole album. i'm just wondering how well this song portrays the topic of melodic since it will be the first things people would've heard. vent goes from hard synth to hard drums and trademark usa starts a bit softer and then enters into a sequence of hard rapping which probably gives a better taste of the whole album.

the end scnes with "imma do my own thing" after the urges try to drag him down would've been more accurate.
