Young artists most definitely do make videos; they just aren’t really televised. They are about as important as they ever were; everybody has a Youtube channel.

Of course it does. The popularity of this song plays heavily on the ridiculousness of the internet. It’s a petri dish of memes, the “ironically funny,” of tumblr and the engagement of twitter. I think it would also work if it were Zach Fox or Seth Everman or Quinta Brunson. It’s just that kind of humor. But to simply…

Let us march outside and threaten clouds with clenched fists held high.

Ditto. No,...not true. I did watch Drake In my Feelings. But still. This made me laugh out loud. I will hit my daughters with a line or 2 (they are 20) in a few days so that I can seem hip. And then my middle school students in a few weeks. I’ll continue to cement cool dad/teacher status. It’ll be money.

Exactly let’s not pretend like ridiculous content has never been a part of hip-hop. The skills of the executioner determine the quality of the final product.

Don’t be like that. We’ve been doing satire hip hop forever. Happy Hump(ty) Day. :-)

I bet, after drinking all them milkshakes and eating them cheeseburgers, she killed it in the bathroom just as hard as she did on that track.

In MY day we listened to De La Soul talk about waving a piece of doo doo in the air, and WE LIKED IT.

You a calf bitch/ you’re my daughter

He was trying to say that his parents being immigrants had some bearing on this discussion. I was trying to figure out what that bearing was. The only thing I could come up with was that he was trying to speak as a POC, because otherwise that comment makes no sense, so I was clarifying.

...except that the Jews didn’t have power or control. White people do. The Holocaust was based on lies. You’re shockingly wrong about this history as someone that should know better.

Okay, I‘m German with Jewish ancestry. My grandfather was in Auschwitz. I also live in an Asian country right now that tolerates foreigners, but doesn’t really welcome them (My husband is a native.)

I am so sick and tired of white people bitching about racism. Its like hearing the lion complain cause the gazelle doesnt like them or said mean things about them. People talking shit due to generations of oppression is not the same thing as racism.

Dale the Wholphin! Has a nice ring to it. (I THINK THAT H NEEDS TO BE THERE OK)

Thank GOD somebody called it a wholphin! That was the first thing I thought of!

“When a melon-headed whale and a rough-toothed dolphin love each other very very much, they have sex.”

How are they not calling it a Dale?! Or at the very least a wolphin??

Can we please all agree to call it a ‘wolphin’?

It’d be interesting to learn whether hybrid males are/can be fertile. The one wholphin in captivity (a false killer whale/bottlenose cross) is female; female hybrids can generally reproduce regardless of chromosomal or genetic differences. Males in most crossings turn out sterile, though exceptions have gone on to…
