I like this one because, if you think about it for more than a half a second, it actually pretty elequently makes the exact opposite point (I assume) it's trying to make.
The people are a bully with a short attention span and a distrust of anything complex, so he comes over and knocks down something that two kids, usually sworn enimies, have spent a lot of time working together to build, and something that might well have been pretty cool.

If we insist on having a persona-handle front-and-center in a piece of music, at least "poverty tourism" and "third world democracy" admits to the existence of poverty and the third world. (I'm not here to defend Maya as some sort of Chomsky figure, of course.)

But I'm not sure that is the whole point of these photos.
This is actually a really fascinating thread because it puts much of the indie ethos on display, namely, that forever unresolvable conflict between art and commerce. Most indie bands aim to shake off as many markings of commerce as possible and thus probably don't even want to be in a photo much less labor to make it interesting. After all, these are publicity photos. For some, even putting themselves on display at a live show can be uncomfortable.
But this is what people who like indie like about indie, gap pants in a park/café/basement and all.

I don't care if you came in to shit on El, Aes, Vast Aire, MF Doom or fucking Humpty Hump; what the issue is here is your predictable tendency to just step in like your opinion of underground rap means anything more significant than "The beats are not jiggy crunk and the rhymes are too complex therefore it is shitty and worthless". The only reason you probably looked in this thread was because the header was "Aesop Rock is cool" and you probably had a snarky "I can't understand what he is rapping about and the production makes me sad" retort, and all you did was just replace that with "ew El-P for four minutes, that's awful". Have you even fucking HEARD THE VERSES? I think Matos and I made it pretty damned clear that they're pretty different from his usual style. Fucking A. And "timidly closeminded taste in rap": yeah, that's precious. I guaranfuckingtee you I have more appreciation and tolerance for mainstream hip-hop than you have for underground hip-hop.
What I want ILM to be is something above "hurr hurr uh like dude that suxx"; you seem to approach most indie rap in a tone that sounds like a hyperactive teenager on a Dew-and-crank bender lashing out against all those horrible critics who said bad things about "bling bling" in their big-up reviews of Stankonia or Labor Days.

What you do is you go inside the pain. Then, the pain is no longer inside you - it's outside. But then you realize there you are in this new space in your body again and maybe your body is still registering the pain. So you repeat the process.
