i used to scoff at buzzfeed but man has that site turned out to be bizarrely relevant and useful this election year

Buzzfeed is the worst ("Top 26 pictures of dogs that look like their owners!!") and apparently Buzzmedia is too

I'm not familiar w Idolatoe; what happened exactly?

They took a blog that had good writers and an editorial voice and replaced them with some interns who would just regurgitate press releases.

man I'm at an airport in Florida and I just saw an issue of Spin on the newsstand and it's easily the smartest-looking mag in the store. if it's gonna go down it's a shame, aesthetically the recent changes were a blow in favor of good stuff in the world

i'm inclined to agree with aero; the step toward wax poetics anthology and away from RS irrelevancy was/is a good one. if you can't be on top of the scene (and print media renders that impossible) then at least try to be thorough and thoughtful

Hi dere twice now I have clicked on one of those 'Critical Mass' reviews to find that the blurb for the review was, in fact, the whole review and that there was no reason to click on it.

the comments on the piece are similarly amazing
this is called envy folks. For instance, the fact that he said Lupe has a "Lyrics over everything" attitude. The ONLY reason he says that is because he knows Lupe is an EXCELLENT lyricis

Me and my roommate totally disagree with this. Watch what you say ("Why must we continually endure Lupe Fiasco's half-baked conscious hip-pop?") because obviously you haven't seen much rap videos.
― young money color me badd (J0rdan S.), Friday, 24 August 2012 03:40 (thirteen years ago)
Mr. Soderberg, you literally made the biggest mistake of your career. This ignorant attempt at an article about one of the only rappers being real has caused everyone on twitter to wanna boycott spin magazine. You've awake a shit storm that I hope you take full consequences for.

Please fire this person and the editor. Cause this is sad. Lupe is one of the forces keeping hip-hop's heart beating.

SPIN needs to be put out of its misery. It hasn't mattered since about 1988.

As you can see the author already had bias against Lupe, since Lupe supports Palestine and the author is jewish...
