On some real s*** @op it’s the fact a lot of niggas across the board can’t write for s*** thus have no other emotions to pull from

u didnt have as many choices back then either tho

like...🙄

Radical Optimism out May 3 btw (dua lipa)

Except you did. Gil scott wasnt positive but moreso real af.

We had loads of sad love songs.

The difference was niggas back then understood there was such thing as multiple pieces of a person so you were able to write about the good AND the bad. Niggas can’t write about the former now.

From the pov of a writing ass nigga, it is 1000x easy to write from a cynical/negative standpoint. To speak positive means hope/possibly having to visualize a thought you havent even manifested/seen in your real life (versus relying on trauma you already went through to power your negativity/cynicism writing)

And lot of niggas aint built like that.

that last paragraph hit. good s***

When the leaders of the so called Free World finally decide to set the standard

Donny f***ing broke down in tears hearing this.

A nigga imprisoned by his own self telling black America that we’d see a freedom he wouldn’t even live to see is F***ING REVOLUTIONARY.

Niggas can’t even uplift bro!

Niggas wouldn’t classify stuff like this as positive today.

When niggas say positive music in the context of 2024 they’re talking about music like Ice spice or the latest Drake banger.

agree on papis new chune tho. wholeseome af

I got you

Still prefer the original. Hopefully the boy has a feature on a new song when 4batz drops the EP

i havent heard them yet, but ima check em out

You won’t be disappointed dawg

Fridayy special. u heard the song he dropped friday?

Listen to more Teezo Touchdown

Also it’s usually aimed at teenagers who are usually dramatic afffff. So it sells!

Yes it’s crazy how early he found his sound

he too hard. you listen to tone stith or leon thomas?

Yea electric dusk is AMAZING. Ima check out tone stith, thank you for putting me on

When Drake drops a Gospel album and marries a reformed thot.

Drake just made his most negative album though

The bangers weren’t negative though. FPS, What would Pluto do, another late night, etc

He talking about killing people and pedo allegations on Another Late Night how is that not negative lmao

I don’t think it’s positive. I’m just saying when people talk about positive music in 2024 that’s the type of s*** they’re talking about. Just “fun music”

If a song like someday we’ll all be free came out today it wouldn’t be called positive because it’s not a party song
