Film not music but please enjoy this sentence with me
"Despite the film’s compact running time of just more than 80 minutes, some of these scenes drag out and never quite arrive at a level of depth and originality a filmmaker like Miranda July, whose distinct style the film brings to mind, possesses with her one-of-a-kind voice."

I'm guessing this is some translation problem but wow:
“Executives are paralyzed. They’re burying their heads in the sand,” said Drew Dixon, a former A & R executive who raped music tycoon Russell Simmons. “The idea that this dysfunctional culture is needed to create the magic of hit records is a crackdown.”

Dixon in his early twenties got a dream job. A Def Jam Recordings scout talent who worked with artists such as Notorious BIG, she left the company after Simmons claimed to have been raped. She will eventually leave the industry altogether. Simmons denied Dixon’s allegations, stating that all his relationships had reached an agreement.

most of these sites are bad at getting a lot of search clout but some sneak into google news or whatever. they just scrape popular headlines, grab some text from existing stories, and then use a halfassed completion engine to generate vaguely English-looking text in order to get clicks

The shout-out to “critical race theory” really situates the dude in a milieu.

I would happily dance to a song called "Critical Race Theory" (I'm imagining Gang of Four styles) but I respect the views of those who would find it difficult.
