This is a scam. It's a move to socialize the risk and inevitable massive losses of an unprofitable company, to shift the burden from billionaires onto the backs of ordinary people and eventually to tax payers. Same scam that Anthropic and OpenAI are running.
JPEGMAFIA is claiming the throne as the king of experimental rap, which is why he named his next album ‘EXPERIMENTAL RAP.’
“I’m already the best in this space of experimental rap. There’s no one who competes with me. People cannot do what I do,” he tells P&P. “So me naming it ‘Experimental Rap’ is just me laying claim to something I already had.”
“Other people in this genre, they want to pretend and try to be cool and be like, ‘I don’t want to be experimental rap. I want to be something else. I want to f**king rap like Lucki. I want to make songs that the young people make,’” he adds. “I’m not having a midlife crisis, musically, so I don’t really need to do that. I can just be myself, and I let other people try to figure out who they are at 40 or whatever.”
Our full interview with @jpegmafia is coming soon.
