i always thought it was him from that point of view of maybe being one and knowing those kids
The way the violin swells into that synth organ decrescendo thing around the :55 mark on lens makes such good use of detailed sound design
LMAO
Niggas got so emotionally attached to his music they started living vicariously through him
This is what people do when artist aren’t active on social media
These fellas get attached the same way the Beehive projects all their views onto Beyoncé

talked about it in one of them threads but basically it’s because of his coming out letter and being in a generation where leftism is conflated with queerness

it’s not that i disagree with you it’s just that my answer was a simple way to put it on a website that has a hard time dealing with these topics
that’s what makes frank’s hardcore neoliberal stances p disappointing but regardless his feelings aren’t unique to him especially in amerikkka and it’s important to recognize that
I personally think he’s just lazy now that he’s rich, comfortable, and acclaimed
Too lazy to deliver on merchandise or release music

not about anti-consumerism specifically but people think that frank being so private translates into him being some sort of understated genius like this isn't the guy who had an unironic "radiohead is too deep for you b****es" interlude on nostalgia ultra
