I thought the biggest Banks booster around here was lex fwiw. don't recall goon squatters really caring about her one way or the other

i think balls is just implying we're apologizing for bigotry because .... ?

He can't even answer that.

i disagree with balls' characterization of goonsquatters but i am glad we have a true enemy in the era of Mordy & the thrilling debate itt are the rolling hip-hop threads racist?

flopson, Friday, 15 February 2013 22:50 (eleven years ago) link

you can't blame Mordy for those results tho tbrr

Welcome to my world of proses (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 15 February 2013 22:55 (eleven years ago) link

i actually hadn't seen the results til just now--i only blame mordy for being boring!

flopson, Friday, 15 February 2013 22:57 (eleven years ago) link

i don't think the position is indefensible, i just don't find it a very interesting one when no one is, like, defending it. aside from it being a thread where people discuss gangster rap, i do wonder what about the content of the thread is seen as racist by ilxors. maybe that seems naive but rejection of gangster rap music is not a position i associate with ilx, but maybe more people feel that way than i've imagined, or maybe there's something about the way we post about it that ppl feel is racist... any of that would have been more interesting than what we got

anyways i'm glad to have an angry dude who writes a lot of words on our nuts v.s. smug cultural studies dude, is all

lol yeah I kinda guessed that too

and there is basically no discussion in the poll thread so yeah I don't know what the majority of voters were thinking

Welcome to my world of proses (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 15 February 2013 23:18 (eleven years ago) link

and there aren't 57 goons, are there

Welcome to my world of proses (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 15 February 2013 23:19 (eleven years ago) link

she's such a dumb mess. it's getting to the career suicide stage now, esp if she can't even release a goddamn single when she says she will.

ohhhhh is this why the social justice radical types on my twitter feed are thanking AB for calling out racist baauer?

hahaha the one person she doesn't beef with is the shittiest piece of shit to have graced this thread to date

do i even want to ask?

"harlem shake" is such a boring track

lex pretend, Monday, 18 February 2013 09:03 (eleven years ago) link

folks are spinning it that because baauer had the track down and didn't take down the version with el-p from a few months ago, he's afraid of having a black rapper on a track or something (never mind that there's an official version coming down the pike with juicy j), i don't fucking know tbh (and yeah "harlem shake" is just not even worth thinking about)

ta-nehisi goatse (fadanuf4erybody), Monday, 18 February 2013 09:15 (eleven years ago) link

i like harlem shake

flopson, Monday, 18 February 2013 23:17 (eleven years ago) link

if one has not welcomed Ma$e into their heart
one can never truly harlem shake

yah "let's get it" video was the big tipping point

in the annals of rap dances its one of the best imo

rap steve gadd (D-40), Tuesday, 19 February 2013 00:21 (eleven years ago) link

bernie is def a great dance too, too bad it's been tainted by this

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 19 February 2013 00:22 (eleven years ago) link

yeah this meme managed to ruin not one but TWO dances simultaneously

it's weird when pop culture makes you feel like an o.g. for having watched 106 & Park daily in 2001

do you guys ever get in those moods where you need to seek something out that will just infuriate you? like you havent really bitched about something in a while, and you want to vent about something but you haven't really encountered anything too horrid lately?

i rarely get in those moods but when i do i turn to azealia banks to make me extremely upset

she is just the absolute worst and everything she has ever done has been the worst.

college kid things like macklemore and harlem shake are infuriating in their own right, but at least they're basically known quantities. like, being into macklemore makes you dreadfully bland but doesn't make you a bad person or anything. i can't imagine what it would be like to meet a hardcore azealia banks fan. i'm pretty sure it would go from eye rolling to open disgust.

-_-

hardcore azealia banks fans don't seem to really exist? the couple that did when 212 was hot moved on

ta-nehisi goatse (fadanuf4erybody), Tuesday, 19 February 2013 08:16 (eleven years ago) link

who is watching her videos!!!!!!! this is something that COMPLETELY eludes me

i wonder what the venn diagram of azealia banks fans and a$ap rocky fans looks like

cocktail onion (fennel cartwright), Tuesday, 19 February 2013 08:26 (eleven years ago) link

I dunno but Liam Neeson is at one of the two intersections with a very specific set of skills.

there are hardcore stans for almost every artist you can think of and az banks assuredly has them

in the meantime she's been posting email correspondence with baauer on twitter

lex pretend, Tuesday, 19 February 2013 09:41 (eleven years ago) link

She told an interviewer that GLAAD is bullshit, apparently
