Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 1597

At this point it’s much more than just ‘Feat. Travis Barker’ he’s fully producing these tracks and signing these artists to his label. I guess it could be seen as diluting the genre but at the same time there’s a reason all these artists are wanting to work with him specifically.

this is an interesting take

 

Are we talking emo rap or just emo? Because Travis has 0 relevancy in emo music and it’s been thriving since the emo revival happened without a mention of him.

If we are talking emo rap, Juice Wrld, Lil Peep, and others like them were the ones going mainstream before Travis Barker was ever in the mix.

Also framing it as MGK and Travis Barker saving the genre is weird. There’s plenty of pop punk records coming out all the time, it was never really “dead”.

 

Yes, this was the origin of the argument basically. Maybe a second wave after Lil Peep and Juice WRLD.

 

I personally dislike most of the artists Travis has worked with, but you can’t deny he has at least helped with the growth and exposure of some of these smaller artists. That being said, the music sounds generic. It feels like he’s got a specific formula that wears thin after a bit.

 

The MGK stuff is super cheesy but it's certainly a guilty pleasure of mine.

 

we need to get travis on a friggin frick track

 

Haha I like your thinkin

 

if I were to open logic right now, I think I might get a text from travis asking if he can drum on it

 

as its starting to get sunny and warmer here, my urge to listen to California has been rising exponentially. also holy moley it's going to be 5 years old this summer

 

Crazy it's almost 5 years old already

 

While blink's merch has been pretty lame over the past ... decade? ... Tom is kinda crushing the product game: Boomer Talking Plush

 

... that’s pretty terrible, lol. And $37?! Even Disney wouldn’t charge that for a doll. Lol

 

I saw that in the background of the pic on Instagram where Mark said he had sent him something and was glad to see he got it.... I was wondering if it was the Boomer. Guess not

 

You must have never stepped inside of a Disney store lol. 37 bucks is cheap in that realm (which is STILL outlandish to me btw)

 

purchased!

 

Travis is nonstop these days.

 

Damn I may have to buy that

 

Shrug. I think it's hilarious.

 

He also has a song with Tyler Posey out tomorrow.

 

I should’ve done my research, haha. But yeah, I laughed when I saw the price.

 

It also talks, which is a whole different story and something I definitely could do without. But I assume that's why it's $37.

 

please nobody spend their hard earned money on a talking tom delonge doll

 

Too late

 

I've got two young kids.... The struggle of toy prices nowadays is real. haha

 

So is Boomer the only blink property he still has rights to? Haha
