no one is more stressed than someone who knows their potential and realizes they aren't living up to it.

One of the most under appreciated albums this decade

[Pigeons & Planes @PigsAndPlans]

14 years ago today, Odd Future (@ofwgkta) dropped "Oldie"—one of their most iconic videos that almost didn't happen. It only did because @tylerthecreator refused to let anyone turn the camera off.⁠
⁠
The members of the group told the story of that day in an oral history published by The Ringer in 2022. When Odd Future descended on Milk Studios in Chelsea, the session unraveled fast. The XXL staff "were understandably trying to contain a group of rowdy kids," Mike G recalled, "but we weren't having it."⁠
⁠
Someone plugged in an iPhone, "Oldie" came through the speakers, and director Lance Bangs kept his camera rolling over objections from the room. The moment Tyler realized what was happening, he called the shots: "No, f*ck that, Lance, keep shooting this sh*t.” What followed was a single, unedited take of the entire 10-minute posse cut performed live.⁠
⁠
For @earlxsweat, freshly back from Samoa and still finding his footing, the whole day had a surreal quality: "It just felt like a cartoon, in the sense that n****s just was doin' whatever they wanted to do." For Tyler, zooming out in real time, the stakes were clearer: “I’ve seen music documentaries, this might be the last time everyone's together so we need to document this."⁠
⁠
He was right. "A f*ckin' balloon popped that night, and we all went in our own directions. That was the last time we was all together like that. Still,” Tyler explained. Frank, looking back, arrived at the same place: "The atmosphere reminds me of how it feels to be in a room full of musicians where everyone is improvising and for a brief period it's pure magic. It's the same rush."⁠
⁠
Bangs edited the footage on a laptop during a red-eye to Portland. It now sits at over 56 million views. It cost nothing.⁠

I'm gonna be more like Ryan Coogler. Never seen that guy complain about anything, or get annoyed about anything. Dude just locks in, works hard, uplifts his people, makes cool stuff, and thanks his wife.

One day, we’re going to have an honest conversation about this album

[RANDY MONTES DE OCA @TheRandmaster]

@KiDCuDi just finished the memoir. it’s crazy how much more “Embers” means to me and speeding bullet 2 heaven as an album after reading that part on it, Idk man it hits so much harder. Flowers cudi, flowers 🙏🏻

[blue @bluewmist]

get back into it. whatever it is; the gym, your art, your studies, that book you haven’t finished, that project you shelved. whatever you weren’t ready for then; you’re ready for now.

[Jamila 🔔 @_iamjamila]

Debut album went crazy and his tour sold out & he is one of the most sought out for features in the game…. lol yall just like to chat.

We gotta actually push away from this conversation yall like to have about people “flopping” because all yall care about is numbers. Never cultural impact or the art itself.

[RED @pussymargiela]

let the great lock in begin.
