huh, apparently mykki's little brother is one of those NRK pyramid people. i guess that kind of makes vague sense.

who are the NRK pyramid people?

the "join my militia" video is quite something. "wavvy" is still a better song though

they are a collective vaguely connected to odd future (matt martians of jet age of tomorrow/the internet is a member of both) who are kind of like OF if they were inoffensive and bland

what's rap to a non-rapper who don't rap about anything

some dude, Wednesday, 4 July 2012 15:50 (thirteen years ago)

well to be fair to curtis i don't think we have a "gay r&b artist" thread

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 4 July 2012 15:52 (thirteen years ago)

sorry, I was more focused on the "homosexuality and hip-hop" part of the thread title. he works within the rap community; also he has rapped before iirc!!

mississippi joan hart (crüt), Wednesday, 4 July 2012 16:20 (thirteen years ago)

We've been talking about this extensively on the Frank Ocean thread

Spoke to Mykki for five minutes before her show tonight (a few folks I know were involved in setting it up and I showed up a bit early).

Cosmic Angel (the mixtape) is supposed to drop in October with production from Brenmar, Teengirl Fantasy and Physical Therapy, and some other folks I forget. She's recording in LA and SF in the next week or two to finish things up before her European tour.

Absolutely. Ass is everywhere.

rev & i talked this out a bit behind the scenes but im not sure i see what the pitchfork article did that this article isn't also doing?
http://www.alternet.org/comments/medias-problem-gay-rappers

i mean, i think obv there needs to be a balance between defining rappers who are gay as a gay rapper movement & simply ignoring the phenomenon that there are now out gay rappers, (which is to say, there is SOMEthing happening, right?) but I fail to see what the pitchfork article did that made it any worse than what this article is doing.

Do Kpop girl group rappers count?

They're being promoted in a major way.

With the 'Wavvy' premiere and the increased media coverage, I figured it was time for Mykki to get her own thread - Mykki Blanco - 'Wavvy' and the forthcoming Cosmic Angel mixtape

and tricky O_O

lex pretend, Thursday, 30 August 2012 13:31 (thirteen years ago)

Gangsta Boo is great on that but Tricky doesn't work at all. Then again, I've never liked him.

The Reverend, Thursday, 30 August 2012 19:39 (thirteen years ago)

haha i thought tricky had come out of the closet

some dude, Thursday, 30 August 2012 19:40 (thirteen years ago)

That's how I interpreted that as well. LOL

Big Freedia Twerking Postal Service Fans The Wrong Way As Band’s Unlikely Opening Act

The Butthurt Locker (cryptosicko), Thursday, 25 July 2013 00:14 (twelve years ago)

"twerking fans the wrong way" -_-

some dude, Thursday, 25 July 2013 00:34 (twelve years ago)

Could you imagine wanting to hear the electronic beats of the Postal Service more than the electronic beats of Big Freedia?

Does the RS Tsarnaev Cover Offend You, Yeah? (Whiney G. Weingarten), Thursday, 25 July 2013 02:02 (twelve years ago)

Gib Bardia, the hardest twerking artist around, is a gender-queer/gender-fluid musician famous for being the face of New Orleans Bounce music — a small sub-genre of hip-hop that uses hyper-sexual call-and-response lyrics over sampled beats and sounds (most ubiquitous is the Triggerman beat).
