ITT: people who would have thrown away rap albums when they found out the rapper never actually dealt drugs defending a billionaire from a little joke she’ll never see.
I throw away rap albums from the ones that actually are murderers, come at me
rap quality scales directly with how hard the lyrics diss violence
gangsters paradise is genuinely one of the best works of art ever made
She sang fondly about that Christmas tree farm, so I guess this new song is just to shit talk about New Jersey.

I mean, asylums aren’t known to be horrible because of the quality of the architecture, but how people treat other people in there.
She treats people horribly.

Our goal should be to resist and overcome those harmful instincts. That’s kinda the purpose of ethics/morality
Whereas her “art” seems to encourage us to give into our base impulses of vindictiveness, scorn, petty jealousy, grudges, etc.
Not a very Christlike role model. Which is ironic given the protestant religious/cultural upbringing of much of her fanbase

i think im starting to understand why some people don’t really like this album.
though to be fair, i don’t listen to music to read a story. So.
I don’t even “hear” lyrics in songs! Is it typical for albums to have songs that tell an overall story?
Yeah. There are Rock operas which are albums that tell a unified story, but not one which is meant to be acted out like an actual opera.
The
DoorsWho album Tommy was one of the first to be billed as such. As well as most of what The Protomen and The Mechanisms have put out.a lot of times albums will have a flow from song to song. Sometimes they just have a collection of different songs, usually a thematic album will have an overall feel to it.
Idk if common. It does happen tho.
You’re missing out if you’ve never heard Alice’s Restaurant Massacree by Arlo Guthrie.
i would post something culturally relevant here, but your root instance is funny to me, so that will suffice instead :)
