At least in Peru you all still view bribes as a bad thing. In the US we legalized it. Like 15 years ago. We legalized money in politics. The only things that get done are based on who has the most money to sway politicians. We live in a dictatorship of the bourgeoise
This extends to politics also. the amount of Peruvians who tell me they moved to the US cos their politicians at home are corrupt and only do things when bribed is so fucking confusing to me cos what the fuck do u think is going on in the US??????? Lmao
People outside the US like to do this thing where they call us uneducated but don’t realize they know very little of substance about living in the United States.
It is largely unwalkable. We’re trying to help you by telling you this, but you’re being condescending 😭
annoying how genZ does not seem to understand that ppl remixing and sampling at home for fun cannot just upload those songs to Spotify. And they all complain in the comments about how they won’t use SoundCloud lmao like, hello please learn about distribution and sampling
@coachcalimari@wujuskinny@IIamameeve Oh funny you mention! I love dj Seinfeld production, but have not been able to get into his sets cos they have felt very generic. It’s crazy he’s said hes too shy to play his own music???
@coachcalimari@wujuskinny@IIamameeve I would kill to hear do not go gentle 🥺 I did see him in NYC recently and he did play some of his deeper cuts and some from his recent album, but overall agree that he is trending in a different frat boy direction right now and I wish he wasn’t
Not a 1 for 1, but also thinking about how we make Nicki Minaj feel like a crazy loser when she started accusing ppl of botted streams, and now following the wired article about botted everything in music everyone’s response has been “well duh it’s called marketing”
In 2019 I broke the story of influencers doing branded engagements/weddings.
Today, turning your wedding post into sponcon for Capital One is normal and fans are excited about the brand deal.
y’all really have no concept of CLASSIC UK edm hits.. like an interpolation of gold dust and disconnect is going to go quadruple platinum in the UK automatically
@wujuskinny@IIamameeve I also gave him/his team the benefit of the doubt and assumed maybe they just didn’t understand the ramifications of playing at white frat houses across the US. They should hire me to guide them in the venue/crowd choices fr 😞
@wujuskinny@IIamameeve I noticed him and other DJs do these frat house tours across the US - they are basically setting themselves up to cultivate the worst crowds ever :/
that’s the problem. the fact that obama is popular among americans should serve as a reality check for the rest of the world. this is a country that worships baby-killing politicians and will call YOU out of touch if you question them.
The Strokes' Coachella video montage displayed images of leaders purportedly targeted by the CIA, including Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, Congolese Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba, Bolivian President Juan José Torres, Panamanian leader Omar Torrijos, Guatemalan President Jacobo Árbenz, Chilean President Salvador Allende, and Ecuadorian President Jaime Roldós.
The video also stated the US government was "found guilty" of Martin Luther King Jr.'s murder in a civil trial, a reference to 1999's King family v. Loyd Jowers in which a jury found restaurant owner Loyd Jowers and "others, including government agencies," liable for King's assassination.
The montage ended with a message claiming that more than 30 universities in Iran have been destroyed during America's war with Iran, followed by a final image of "the last university standing in Gaza" being blown up in a military strike.
