Humanity rejects technology and computers doubt

It's already too much I'm good here n now

Ya idk s*** about dune 😂

Should beatsense again soon

Demolition Man is probably more terrifying than 1984 for you isn't it

it’s pretty dope

kinda wild that there’s people still living who were already adults when rock ‘n roll started

Wall-E, Sorry to Bother You and The Road

We just lost the last silent film star and rock and roll is 30 years younger than that so it's not too crazy yet. Jerry Lee Lewis still hanging in there. My grandma was born in 1933 so she's about the same age as those guys but was definitely too old to be listening to rock and roll when it came out as she was already a military wife.

No not really at all. It’s just an obsession with safety over freedom even the illusion of freedom seems more like a realistic path for humanity.

Nah I was strictly Wu Tang and Eminem etc by then

More like this;

Nas snapped on the lyrics

Lmao really?

0:22

He won’t comment on it but it’s sort of a urban legend he wrote that and Miami

Being born in the late ‘50s/early ‘60s so you catch every major revolution in all genres while you’re young then enjoy middle age before 9/11 makes everything less fun

Lmao I almost posted Miami instead. would explain the incredible flow that I recognized as a kid

Also found out way after the fact that Nas wrote Dr Dre's verses on The Watcher which I always thought were incredible

The cold war made thing a little spooky back in those days too. They were raised on nuclear apocalypse paranoia whereas we are raised on climate apocalypse paranoia grandparents had economic apocalypse

Grandkids probably have AI apocalypse

“they learn dances, brand new dances, like the nuclear bomb”

I wouldn’t say we’re completely over the cold war because we just went from US versus Russia to US versus China. Climate change is an increasing threat as is the conservative “Hollywood is decaying society’s morals by corrupting the youth” bs is stronger than ever.

I feel like the lack of diverse media coverage left a lot more to imagination which made things feel more dreary whereas now because we have such an intimate relationship with accessing information, We are imagining a lot less and “hypothesizing” a lot more; going from “knowing there are things we will never know” to “anything that can’t be easily accessed or explained is oppressive”

Considering there used to be a literal strict moral code on Hollywood for 30 years I doubt it is stronger than ever

I use Hollywood loosely, I’m more referring to the entertainment industry as a whole which includes musicians and social media stars more than movies and TV

This gonna be the reality in less in a few decades tho

Yeah I still don't know about that. There's definitely a vocal minority that won't shut up about it but the ones who actually hold the power are still allowing them to get away with whatever they want really.

Also social media stars probably are decaying societys morals by corrupting the youth
