it's an impt point
i kind of don't get this -- i can see why same love is 'bad' but i don't see why it's importantly bad
i think the level of hate being evinced for guy is kinda sad tbh

the thing that's weird about the thrift store song, when hearing it on the radio, is how chintzy and un-current it sounds. sounds like he got that mf'in beat at the thrift shop. anyway, that's all i have to say about this guy who i was hoping to die without ever listening to.

really the most offensive part of this song is the blatant Nate Dogg imitation on the hook

i honestly didn't mind that part of the song that much until i learned they wrote it purposefully as a faux-nate dogg hook, ugh

between this, Urthboy and K'naan it's seeming like a really good year for hip hop pop, or whatever this stuff is, to me. (Plus all the 2010/2011 grime I missed at the time.)
