I mean . . . are they taking the beats from actual rap songs or having rap producers? Or are they simply "talking and rhyming fast." Because that is not appropriating. In fact I think country rap has been going on for a while.


I mean lube is used for a lot of things . . .
Sam Hunt's Body Like a Back Road sounds like it's directly emulating hip-hop productions. As far as I know, it's the most successful country song this year. My issue with this is the lack of avenues that are available to people of color in the country music industry, and how country music's demographics have the tendency to insult musicians of color. In spite of them insulting the musical productions of musicians of color, a majority of country music's audience seem to be accepting of similar sounding productions when it's filtered through the lens of a White man.

I just meant expect to get Fucked over. wasn't spreading his sexual preferences.
And yes, I know lube is used for a lot of things, I was being tongue-in-cheek. I personally know about BAD's... [ r e d a c t e d ], so it was a fun poke that he's used to receiving.

i just realized the OT title isn't even the right line.

And you call yourselves pop fans?
does it actually make you MORE of pop fans to throw in the shade of not even having the right line?

From previous years get your lube ready. I got my 7 Plust at like 3:20 AM after the site fucked up. I'm anticipating the biggest fuck up yet, but I'm percheD b/c if anything i'll just go watch the first episode of Stranger Things Season 2!
I've never failed at securing a day one delivery but that of course doesn't stop my fears

marina and the diamonds is a socially adjusted human being who understands that good creative output takes time, and knows how to self-care instead of other pop 'stars' who just find whatever song someone wrote for them and shit out albums every other year

Listening to that beat, I can definitely say that it sounds very hip-hop-ish with country overtones. However, I would argue that he mostly sticks to singing like the country boy he is. I think Jason Aldean's "Dirt Road Anthem," is more reminiscent of country rap than "Body Like a Back Road." I agree with you when it comes to people of color in the country music industry and how they should view that demographic better. I do think thought that there is a big different between hip-hop beats being used via rap and country because of the presentation. Although, yes I do not doubt that they would accept a white man doing a bigger variety of genre's than a person of color.
And yes, I know lube is used for a lot of things, I was being tongue-in-cheek. I personally know about BAD's... [ r e d a c t e d ], so it was a fun poke that he's used to receiving.
Lol okay that makes more sense.

I will not and can not support the unmitigated blasphemy posted above. Lana Del Rey, our savior, is and forever WILL BE the artist of our time. She represents the modern contextualization of the beatnik movement and inspires us all to live our truths.

Quoted from 2017's Xanax-laced, trip-hop anthem Summer Bummer:
"It's never too late
To be who you wanna be
To say what you wanna say (tattoo on my face, swimmin' in my safe)
It's never too late
To leave if you wanna leave
Or to stay if you wanna stay (better not)
But, baby (yeah)
I got a feeling in my bones
Can't get you out of my veins (yeah, yeah)
You can't escape my affection (yah, yeah)
Wrap you up in my daisy chains (What? What? What? What?)"

Repent. Now.

Hi everyone! I used to be a lurker back in the old place and this community was one of my favorites. Glad it's back over here.

I'm not sure I have a fave anymore (Xtina is MIA and so is her album) but I like most singers. I've been into Ariana and Tove Lo these days, among pretty much all pop singers. Disco Tits is my jam.

When I saw Carly Rae on her B-Sides tour, she got up on stage and said she almost didn't make it because the entire tour forgot about her, took off and left her behind in Omaha. That is a perfect example of Carly Rae's life.
I'm laughing so damn hard right now. 2015 didn't deserve the magnum opus that was Emotion

Flawless taste. Disco Tits is a BOP, Tove Lo is excellent! Emotion was AOTY for 2015. You should post more.

Okay this is not shade but... who is releasing that

Kelly the legend Clarkson.
