You’re right about that.

Lol on The Streets. It’s hilarious as concept, and it’s appropriation all the way down. Dude pretending to be Cockney, for the authenticity, as he raps? Lolololol.

Y’all miss the point on purpose. Had the Beastie Boys stayed punk rock nobody would have fucking heard of them. They might have had a single or two and washed away in the 80s. Instead, they co-opted Black music and became global superstars.

Nah, it’s over.

 I hear you 

“ I’m just trying to get my money and get out.”

Based on the RS interview where he rants on his professed love of guns, conspiracy paranoia and desire to move to Utah , I don’t think your take is far off.

“Austin Richard Post” sounds like a name that you’d expect a mass shooter to have.

Yes to this. Yes. The second I saw Post Malone I was like NOPE. NO. NUH-UH. NOT FOR ME. NO SIR. Then I decided to give him a chance, watch an interview with him because he can’t actually be that bad right? Then he said that he wore a suit to school every day because he wanted “to look like [his] dad.” Bout as…

THIS!!!! Do you think the White folks in charge were going to support a movement where there were rappers with names like Dred Scott? Even if one didn’t listen to his music, his name alone was a powerful history lesson regarding the systematic arguments used to deny our folks freedom and citizenship.

I am so confused about who actually listens to this guy? He has a fucking man bun, he is not hard.

I am both amazed and disheartened that my people are so willing to embrace someone like you.

Harriot said this:

When he fails, he’ll have that Kid Rock attitude.

I use the er version when I have a point to make.

::shrug:: I’ve run into Electric Six fans who will argue their musical virtuosity for hours. People are weird.

The accent kills it for me, and the arrangement/flow is haphazard for me.

May I someday have the wit and wherewithal to construct so blistering a takedown as this.

You, Mr. Harriot, are an absolute exemplar of the art of the written word. Thank you for this.

White people love black music, as long as white people are the ones making it.

So, he’s Iggy with a beard?
