@EmmKay1989@DamnReesee@OfficiallyIce I don’t think it’s about the sheer size. US stadiums are built to seat less but are typically larger. They also have amenities that you don’t find as easily everywhere else.
@THlmz_3@ivy_interlude Revisit those lyrics. That’s the most misunderstood song in his catalog. He wasn’t preaching to people about calling women bitches. He was examining how our messages can become muddied if we aren’t careful with how we present them.
Panama is a Caribbean country with an entire Caribbean coast. It is also the most southern country in North America & considered part of Central America. I don't give a fuck about how you "feel" or what you "consider" Caribbean or not. Geography doesn't care about your feelings.
@__gaabb Now i don’t know about this one 😂 i think patriarchy has provided a space for men to have more of a range of artistry. Once female rappers leaned into sexualization, that became the only archetype for female artists to thrive through. I think that’s the culprit.
@__gaabb I don’t believe capitalism was in her sights either lol thats why i mentioned inadvertent. I will say, though i do think she had the struggles of the hood in mind and how people gotta find a way. So while it is a celebration of debauchery i do think there is an altruistic lens.
@__gaabb Duality in everything. The louder message is degeneracy. The unfortunate quieter message is forced criminality via capitalism. A critique even if inadvertent. To me the real issue is the only people with the tools to pull substance from it are the folks that need it the least.
@daimaobutterfly Chad definitely brought refinement and trained musicianship that is missed.. but Pharrell had the imagination, the ideas. The chords were always the hook for me.. while they both loved and produced that style, Pharrell seemed to be the imagination and Chad the arranger/executer.
@daimaobutterfly Pharrell is responsible for wayyyyyy more than just his drum prowess on those Neptunes beats. There are so many example CHORD PROGRESSIONS that we loved still being present on post Chad Pharrell productions. In My Mind, BUSH, GIRL, these are whole albums full of that stuff..
