big man like you sill supseptible to peer pressure, maybe its just cause i tend to do things by myself but yeah this isn't the case for me, as far as watching it home you'll just have to switch the phone off and lock it in a cabinet or something it still sounds like you're caught up in the speed...

@shakahislop sounds like you need to engage with "slow cinema" some more, movies like Weerasethakul's are only "boring" in the sense that they have very deliberate pacing, very little action happening on screen and emphasising mood,texture and developing characters through movement rather than...

such a sterling reccomendation "most people probably shouldn't waste their time on it" "in some ways its incredibly boring" honestly i thought Memoria was amazing even with the twist that i know some people might find a leap too far

i mean if you're the kind of person who judges old action movies by how ridiculous they are then yeah 3 wins by a country mile

these two have an album coming out tomorrow(aswell as billy woods and DJ Preservation) have you listened to much Detriot/Michigan rap at all?

@shakahislop where you at?

Paul Beaty must count right? and there's definitley serious comic writers/ satirists out there but they're names aren't coming to mind right now lol

Finished Erasure last night not my favourite of the Everett books i've read but i understand fully why its considered his most important book, funny thing though the ending to it is similiar to the one in I am not Sidney Potier Also the part where he's on some Oprah style talk show that was...

it's the only thing people will still defend Donald Glover over

i mean the reason why is cause his first album was when he got annointed the crown and the 2nd album netted him the Pulitzer so its no surprise it gets lost in the mix. i liked Section 80 but there's definitley certain songs that haven't held up over time either due to the beats or just the...

@shakahislop His albums have like some notable LA jazz musicians on TPAB, George Clinton and he got MC Eiht on his first album but none of it really feels "immersive" like he's only engaging with these cause as he's an LA rapper and people know the histories of black music from that city because...

With white indie/rock people its not surprising there's been a history of rock people who hardly ever listen to rap getting into a particular kind of "dense" and "layered" rap music that appeals to their expectations and ideas of what they want rap to be like, back in the day they would've been...

will definitly get back to you on all these but i think you're the first person @shakahislop i've heard in a very long time to talk about ether positivly, Takeover vs Ether is one of those discussions that all even now i'm surprised people STILL want to address and i feel like these days...

@william_kent now they've lost ANOTHER member https://www.jamaicaobserver.com/latestnews/Bunny_Diamond_is_dead good grief

It reminds me of when Odd Future blew up and certain people were aghast at alot of the content of their lyrics which just said to people like me that either they honestly hadn't heard that kind of thing or they purposfuly went out of their way to try and avoid rap with content like that

Shaka the fact that you're so taken aback by that one line and posit that there must be some kind of "sublte" homophobia in dancehall really speaks to me how green you are when it comes to this genre of music it's deeply funny to me

RIP Tabby out of The Mighty Diamonds killed in a drive-by shooting

he's always been a genuinly good actor its just the fact that he became a meme really got in the way of this Cage's problem is that no matter how stupid the role is he'll always give 110% not only that but he's the only actor i can think of who'll refference silent movie acting and incorporate...
