@russdiemon Typically how long can you tell if the beats are good, great or 🔥, 30 seconds?

[RUSS @russdiemon]

life drastically improves as a rapper when you always have good beats to write to

if you’re an up coming artist, you should listen to your gut. but that also comes with taking accountability for YOUR role in why nothing you’re doing is working. being set in your ways when your ways have been tried long enough to realize “there must be a different way” is just ego. lotta times the reward is in the reroute. best of luck 🥂

GENERATIONAL FINALS COMIN UP

[RUSS @russdiemon]

these conference finals are fuckin insane already

Knicks vs Spurs gonna be beautiful basketball

[RUSS @russdiemon]

watching people only read the first couple sentences of this and spiral in my mentions has been a reminder of people’s inability to have and receive nuance

[RUSS @russdiemon]

SGA is dead nice. Undeniable. His mid range game, his pace, etc. So the criticism of “he’s only good because of refs” is lazy and obviously untrue, but the criticism of his style of play is consistent enough that dismissing it entirely is just dishonest. There’s a difference between attacking contact while genuinely trying to score and prioritizing creating officiating dilemmas, and even when refs don’t reward it, anyone who’s watching still registers the intent…which is why you actually have to watch the games instead of just reading the box score. A lot of times it just feels like watching somebody tryna play the system instead of play basketball…very video game 2k glitch that basically is “I know how to enter the animation that makes the defender legally lose.” Reality is we don’t watch basketball just to see the outcome, we watch to see how the outcomes are produced. SGA is dead nice but the critiques are not ALL just fluff.

You can think they’re terrible and that’s fine but lemme educate you for free real quick

People mistake minimalism for lack of thought.

What does the song feel like? (color)
What is the song about? (icon in the middle)

My artworks became iconic to my fans to the point that any image of solid color with an icon in the middle, my fans think of me and tag me lol recognizable visual language matters. It’s called branding. These icons are tattooed on people all over the world.

Memorability beats complexity most of the time.
