seeing the outrage over auntie diaries opened my eyes and really exemplified to me how people listening to music has completely changed
niggas dont care about concepts and themes and all that other s*** anymore, it's just "vibes" and "aesthetic" - to see the d***riding for DAMN's "listen to it backwards" concept to the mr morale derision is mind boggling
Sounds pretty problematic to me.
Normalizing anti LGBTQIA+ slurs in a time where are experiencing a rise of GQP sponsored christofascism
Kenny should know better
Do you think SNL just employs whoever? He had to be making connections with industry heads prior to get a shot. And these days, you don’t do that if you’re not virtue signaling hard
Pete met Amy Schumer through NY stand up scene. She put him in Trainwreck, Bill Hader saw him and set him up with an audition for Lorne at SNL
It’s very ‘knowing the right people’ and small-circle networking but idk if its any different from decades of Hollywood networking
People need to let go of celebrity idolization as soon as they can, no way this really needed to be a thinkpiece
Being inspired is cool but these are just human beings no better than anyone else

Exactly but you don’t get these connections if you don’t play ball whether that’s in having a inoffensive comedic style or virtue signaling to the left in your stand ups or just as a person. Shane Gillis didn’t play ball after he got the SNL gig and he lost all his connections, despite being funnier than all of em.

He wasn’t normalizing.
Literally the entire point was how f***ed up it was that something like that was entirely normalized in his circles.
The “f” word, especially in its heyday, was so normalized that it transcended simply being a derogatory term for gays and essentially became synonymous with “weak”.
You also cannot rob art of its context and intent, those are the KEY points of artistic a***ysis.

He knows that, he’s a right wing troll looking for y’all to respond to him

he's being sarcastic and pretending to be a hurt liberal
I know Kendrick gave up his messiah complex but he don't belong in the same group as Kanye and Dave
Yup cus he got no misses !

I mean, I’ve seen this exact statement posted on here so many times unironically to be fair.

True regarding shane. Looking back I can’t even picture him being considered for that show let alone getting it
His career has and will continue to blow up though and being kicked off ultimately was way better for him

I’m speaking truth to power and calling out harmful dog whistles that embolden bigots
You CANNOT be sarcastic on KTT.
There are too many freaks on here to ever know if you mean it or not.

oh yeah dont worry, i have too
i was in a disc and when the album came out niggas were fuming spitting mad at auntie diaries although he's LITERALLY CONDEMNING HOMOPHOBIA IN THE SONG
hell, same on Twitter too
music skimmers are just built different bro
18 pages because of a s***ty Buzzfeed blog post
Better than another Nicki Cardi stan Twitter thread
Is that not how new words and terminology work? Imagine writing “lmao” in a letter to someone in 1994.
acronyms like “tbh” and “lmao” were common back then. I was reading a somethingawful thread from 2003 and it’s scary how similar they are to us

I see virtue signaling as playing one side because that is seen as “authentic” when you’re not just parroting mainstream media points to be seen as buddy buddy with industry heads, similar to Pete Davidson who did just that and is now buddies with Hollywood execs and making movies.
Schulz looks to make uncomfortable jokes which literally cause big companies to not want to work with him. He’s taking huge risks career wise to start things on his own terms so he can tell the jokes he wants to tell.
I mean look who Schulz has his pod now. I feel like he's going in that direction.
My only gripe w/ Schulz is that he comes from a VERY privileged upbringing, rode the curtails of Charlamagne, and now aligns himself with reddit/rogan audience.
