I just sung this because I thought i was tripping, but it can definitely be sung in the original key. I believe y'all are referring to the pitch, which would be tough for any adult man since Tevin sing it when he 13-14.
First 2 listens of #BROWN; I was kind of in the middle and was saying it was kinda meh. This is coming from a long time fan. Then I did a couple relistens, and I'm genuinely impressed. This album definitely gets better with each listen.
Broooo, for real!!! As a kid, I used to see him as that cheap, overbearing dad. Always counting coins, clipping coupons, stressing over every little thing. Funny how he was so annoying to me back then.
But Now? Damn... It’s a whole different story.
I now realize he was just teaching us money discipline, showing us that every small saving you make could help you survive.
That man was a hero. Worked multiple jobs, fixed cars, kept the household running, and even sacrificed his own comfort so that his kids could have the opportunities he never had. Every rule he enforced, every blunt warning, wasn’t him being cruel. It was basically him preparing his kids for how real life worked.
Julius is the kind of dad you roll your eyes at as a kid but then grow up to realize he is a masterclass in responsibility as an adult.
I hate to say this, but young men are going to have to make a very important decision in the near future.
Many millennials and Gen Z women openly frame relationships and marriage as burdens or bondage. At the same time, statistics show nearly 50% of marriages end in divorce & women initiate 70% of them and men make up around 70–85% of child support payers.
So as a man today, you have to realistically consider the risk. You’re living in a time where the cost of living is the highest it’s ever been, Housing is increasingly unaffordable, job security is declining &
AI is expected to replace or disrupt millions of jobs.
And in that same environment, you’re being asked to enter a legal contract where most men will get divorced, pay child support or alimony, lose time with their children & be forced to rebuild financially.
So the question becomes very practical, not emotional, Can you afford that kind of financial setback in this economy? Is it worth the risk?
Because for most men, it’s not just about heartbreak anymore. It’s about long term financial survival.
@TheNBABase Nothing is misunderstood about Westbrook. He had a bad year in LA and all the fake basketball fans and people that hide behind screens want to make false narratives up about him.
Because effort matters to me… I want to also feel special, I want to also have someone go out of their way to plan an outing that’ll make me happy, I want to also have someone think of things to do to make me feel special cos I too deserve to be loved with her actions, it’s never been a gender role. I initiate, you initiate, both of us feel loved and special, that’s how it should be
There is a whole generation of men out here who are absolutely exhausted from being the "transitional guy." They come into your life, absorb all the trauma your toxic ex left behind, provide stability, and love you gently. But because your brain is still addicted to chaos, you mistake his consistency for a lack of passion. You drain his peace to heal yourself, and then abandon him because there isn't enough "drama" to keep you entertained. Men are constantly being used as emotional handymen to fix damage they didn't cause, only to be discarded the second the foundation is stable. It is pure emotional vampirism.
