edit: lttp on pissy pamper and immediately recognised the sample. The guitar riff would make a fire sample too but I imagine it'd be more trouble than its worth to remove the drums
i mean, you coulda just given him a try yourself instead of listening to people in here that hate on him as a meme π€·ββοΈFinally listening to Champion by NAV and it's actually good (mostly because of trav)
Kinda shocked tbh
people here trying so hard not to admit they actually like Nav πNow listen to Price On My Head to witness Nav be carried again (this time by the Weeknd) on another genuine bop.
I wish our school had a semi-decent setup for screenings, but the arts faculties have always been underfunded from what I can tell.I took a film class in college where they showed Koyaanisqatsi in the auditorium and it blew my mind.
I mostly know it for Glass's score tbh, which I first found from Snyder's Watchmen lol. Say what you will about the adaptation but it knew how to use music to maximum effect!still need to watch Koyaanisqatsi myself, always felt like a small screen wouldn't do it justice. News From Home too
I like Nav! Call Me is a melancholic banger.people here trying so hard not to admit they actually like Nav π
Co-sign. There's no chemistry between Yachty and Kenny and so it just seems like Yachty's being a real jerk at times to Kenny.
I edited it in!torre_avenue you never pulled up the link for the HudMo mix, i thought you were looking out for your boy :(
ohh, i see, thx! will check it out tomorrow or so.I edited it in!
The pinned comment on this video should be what you're looking for. It also has links to the Boards of Canada set, both Autechre sets, and more!
Out side of the shoes , the Travis Scott stuff bomedTravis Scott to sell boxes of Reese's Puffs for $50 because he doodled on their box or something.
I mean, he did go #1 on bundles alone so I wouldn't say it bombed.
I'm talking about the merch stuff the album did excellent.I mean, he did go #1 on bundles alone so I wouldn't say it bombed.
Plus, anecdotally, I see way too many high schoolers / college folks rock the Astroworld merch.
On Ameer:Jeremy: Was this most recent project one that you really had invested a lot in?
Kevin: I got to take the mask off, because I want to say why I did the record [Arizona Baby, his third solo albumβEd.]. And it's not rooted in pure creativity. It goes back to survival mode and me looking out for the group. Basically I have to deliver records, because I signed a record deal, which I wanted to doβ110 percent I wanted to do that. I enjoyed being signed.
My problem was, we lost a member from our group. Close, close, close childhood friend, traumatic experience. We put out a fourth album after the stuff, which got us a lot of hype, [and] didn't get the reaction we wanted, so it made us take a step back and made me realize maybe the group should take a break and just live life for six months. I had already released a solo record, and maybe we could just give that to the label and that would count for a record. I did want to [put out a record], but also I was burnt-out. I should not have made an album. I think the thing that saved my record is, it was vulnerable and it's honest and it's pure. But I personally don't want to make another album.
On the new dynamic:Jeremy: One of the members of your group had this #MeToo thing happen. How did that disrupt the brotherhood?
Kevin: It's just like, fuck. In those moments, family was first, for sure. We spoke for hours internally, always talk, talk, talk, talk. Also that pressure makes shit move really quick. What if we wanted a little bit more time of having therapy as a friend group, and still came to the same result? The same thing happened, he still left the group, but what if we had more time to talk? That's how I feel, because I think talking is important. Even if the same thing happens, years of history with a human being, it's just insane. There for years, gone. That's not to excuse anything.
Kevin: We've been fighting more these days, which is weird, because we never fight. Every day we wake up, we try to make something that's great. It might not stick.
I don't think I'm that good of a leader right now because I started to believe that what happened when we made our first three albums was all magic or luck. It's like, "Fuck, what am I doing?" "What am I doing?" "Am I as good as I think I am?" "Am I as good as they think I am?"
People call it impostor syndrome or whatever, but I feel like all artists have that in a way. I don't fucking know. I don't know what it is. This feeling I have, just lean into it and that'll become the work. Lean into that insecure space and being unsure. There is magic in that. If you do the same thing for 10 hours straight, you'll catch the magic. If I can't come up with a chorus immediately, I'll sit in front of the microphone for 30 minutes, an hour, until something comes. I'll force it. Through that frustration, you catch some magic, even if it's a tiny thing that doesn't make sense in that moment, maybe hours later you figure out how to put it into your work.
Kacy Hill, HXLT, and D'banj live on in our hearts.what are the odds that shit dropping and nobody caring like pretty much every other good signee in the last few years. Remember that dancer singer chick who signed, dropped and album? No? of course you don't.
I remember Kacy Hill, but not necessarily because of her music
