You think his anti-vax stance alone would be enough to keep a HEALTH CARE foundation from booking him. The filthy content is just lagniappe.

What? No! Not Kanye! I don’t believe it!

Animal Well? No? Couple interesting picks here (Lorelei, Hades, Balatro), otherwise pretty typical samey-samey, shooty-gunny, choppy-stabby stuff. Animal Well - just do it.

Where in this article are they “pretend(ing) he isn’t one of the greatest rappers of all time”? The question is how is he now?

Going back to my youth, the Onion had a story that stuck with me headlined

Speaking frankly, I struggle to name an artist who has remained relevant and prolific into old age; Zevon was a cult figure and was in his mid-50s when he passed, and Bowie’s career was in the wilderness from the mid-80s to when he soft-retired in the mid-00s (don’t get me wrong; Blackstar is a monolith). Offhand I…

I think anyone considered “the best” wouldn’t make their absolute reliance on a rhyming dictionary so obvious.

this guy ain’t been relevant since John Kerry reported for duty at the DNC

I like the video for the most part, but somebody in his inner circle, PLEASE stop him from going back to these terrible punchlines. The interpolation choruses too. The whole throwback angle doesn’t work when he keeps going back to the well that made him fall off in the first place.

he still holds a lot of cachet with creaky edgelords who conflate speed with skill when it comes to rap

Eminem has been shit for way longer than he has been great. He had a stellar run of albums in the late 90s and early 2000s. And now he continues to dump on his legacy with every new release. This has nothing to do with his politics, it’s just obvious that he’s tired and has nothing to say anymore.

We hate Eminem now so we are going to pretend he isn’t one of the greatest rappers of all time. 

it’s everyone fucking with everyone else.

It’s very chicken-egg to me, in the sense that the Black Keys are known and long-lived enough that you could fill an arena off $30 tickets, but not $200 ones.

for sure. seems like a bit of both though: monopolized ticket pricing and acts booking venues reflective of popularity they yet to have achieve or have since lost

...hmmm if only there was something currently happening within the Justice Department that was pertinent to the question posed by this article.

This just in: Old white man spouts right wing talking points. Up next: Water found to be wet.

I mean, dude BEEN a prick for decades now. 

Same. Silksong is the only game currently on my 2024 wishlist, but now I’m worried it won’t be this year at all. 

I haven’t seen Hollow Knight: Silksong on any of these “most anticipated of 2024" lists, so I guess we’ve given up on the pretense that it is coming out any time soon?!? I mean, I am willing to give Team Cherry as much time as they need to finish this, but the fact that they *had* a 2023 release date in mind at some…
