Sorry for missing that, Rev!
I need to do a better job at listening to EVERYTHING...
Also, I was spinning the So So Rev mix and remembered that OMG Michelle are amazing. Did they ever put out anything besides those two Kingdom-produced tracks?

never really got into blanco, had seen her around parties in persona and it's a turn off for me (tired of homo events inherently having to revolve around drag) so i haven't really paid much attention to the rap, dig that clip a lot though. mostly just because i love/hate that she managed to reference dren from splice and the doom generation in one take.
― fauxmarc, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 19:42 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, i totally share your wariness about drag as cultural cornerstone (but not as an artform), but i don't see what that has to do with her music. i had, for a while been under the impression she was fulltime trans, but i guess not.
in other news (and i'm not going to link to that garbage), apparently at least one half of yo majesty really hates jews.

Hmmm, looks like Dark York is finally coming out in April.

i don't know who Dark York is but that certainly doesn't sound like the name of a straight rapper
― some dude, Monday, 19 March 2012 17:29 (twelve years ago) link
Dark York is Le1f's album.

Someone should do an anthology of the yearly "this crop of underground gay rappers defy stereotypes" article that always seems to have a completely different crop of underground gay rappers

good article; lol he got scurrrrred at gg
― fauxmarc, Wednesday, 21 March 2012 17:33 (twelve years ago) link
that was a good read!
i find a lot of these guys' music really interesting but only zebra katz has translated that into an undeniably great song so far.

have you checked out house of ladosha at all? think my favorites ("hold up wait" and "tuna fish") are only on their myspace page: http://www.myspace.com/houseofladosha/music/songs?filter=featured

Latifah's kind of weird in general about being in/out. last year she exec produced a show, Single Ladies, in which she has a recurring guest role as a lesbian who claimed to have been involved w/ one of the main characters.

buying into gossip and celebrity-hounding isn't any sort of excuse for it

also, what fictional character someone plays on a fictional tv show on an entertainment channel should also not be fodder at all for the aforementioned gossip and celebrity-hounding
