42 Dugg Goes Off on Homophobic Rant

 

Hell of a week

 

Rashad has album of the year right now for me

 

One positive off the back of DaBaby’s homophobic shit is that it’s exposing all the other dickheads. Now we know who to ignore.

 

The album is up there for me too

 

Need to give that a listen

 

Very excited for Verzuz tomorrow

 

Anyone check out the new Gabe Nandez?

 

Not yet but I will

 

I've said this before in here, but a lot of (relative) newcomers to Hip Hop culture or fandom or whatever seem to be unaware how socially conservative substantial parts of the Hip Hop community are with regards to a lot of issues. I'm never really surprised when something like this happens because I have seen it happen constantly since I immersed myself in this at age 13 and I still see it everywhere when I dive even a little bit below the surface (I have seen a lot of variations of "Lil Nas X is disrespecting Hip Hop culture" recently). However, the backlash DaBaby is facing is bigger than anything I have seen in a long time, so there is progress for sure. Lil Nas X's success despite the reality I have just described is a sign of that too of course.

 

New Pink Siifu

 

The Rashad album gets better and better with each listen

 

Look at that Bronx lineup, that’s truly wild

 

I dunno, Staten Island is where it’s at for me!

 

Yeah it's good but what I mean is look at the old school acts on the Bronx one. The others have it too but not as wild (though Yo-Yo is a crazy one too).

 

Oh yeah, the legends on that Bronx lineup is ridiculous. Lucky New York bastards.

 

Siifu record is cool. Some of it is a little harder than I expected/am used to from him, but I don’t mind him trying some stuff. Plenty of nice jazzy stuff to balance it out

 

Love the Siifu record, he really went all over

 

sucks that Dallas show is the same night as another (metal) show I already have tickets to

 

legendary verzus right now

 

dave east and harry fraud collab project is amazing

 

I wasn't able to watch it live, but I screen capped it and am very excited to watch it tomorrow.
