just live your life and be happy

 

Denzel Curry is opening at the Kanye/Ty Dolla $ign listening party right now. Chris Brown is also performing. Album art inspired by Burzum.

 

Fuck them all

 

God damn, all that evil and shittiness all in one place. You'd think it'd open a portal to hell or something.

 

When it comes to Kanye and Chris Brown, I just have to realize that 80% of the hip hop community will continue to support them. I also don't think it's fair for me to stop listening to 80% of a genre. There's no winning

 

Fuck the community for staying with them then.

(not that I expect listeners to abandon them too sadly)

 

I personally don't feel comfortable writing off a nearly entire black community and black art and white washing the music I take in. I hate it but it's extremely complicated

 

I mean, I just hate anyone who supports antisemitic or women beating people

 

Freddie Gibbs is there too.

 

He’s on the album apparently.

Also seeing photos of Kanye wearing a black KKK hood while on stage next to his daughter tonight

 

I’ve come to realize that no one in that scene really cares about the Rihanna stuff anymore (weird that they gloss over the countless other assault accusations on CB, but whatever that’s on them to decide if they want to be around that).

Rihanna clearly forgave CB for busting her face up so that’s all that’s needs to be said anymore.

I mean, Kanye coming out in a KKK hood tonight tells you everything you need to know. The clowns that continue to work with him, are just that, clowns.

 

Denzel wtf

 

lame-o shock jock shit that was infinitely more interesting 10 years ago when he wasn't...an actual nazi

 

It's just terrifying that we live in a world where as long as your art is good it legitimately doesn't matter what horrible things you say or do you're still going to be rich, famous, loved and supported.

It makes me really sick and I can't stand it.

 

Your art doesn't even have to be good. His hasn't been for nearly a decade.

 

Even more terrifying.

This world sucks. Someone make me think it doesn't.

 

You're in the wrong thread for that.

 

Yeah, if you wanna believe the world is still capable of beauty, you gotta go to a different thread. Like this one: https://forum.chorus.fm/threads/madame-web-sj-clarkson-february-16-2024.61570/

 

How dare you

 

Fixed.

 

Has anyone seen this? Craig Owens is being called out by the opener for him on tour (Garzi) because Craig said that the opener was a “diversity hire” and only on the stage because they are black. Also the first tweet implies he is creepy/inappropriate around women which I was previously unaware of.

 

This all seems pretty on brand for Craig Owens

 

All I know about Craig Owens is that all of his D.R.U.G.S. band members did not enjoy their time in that band and seem to not want to talk about specifics.

 

Further context from Garzi:
