sobering commentary from PROVEN BY BOOZE SCIENCE

some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 29 December 2011 17:56 (twelve years ago) link

now I feel bad for distracting from this threads true intent which is to clown forks

Have we delved enough into gender politics yet? Arguments about suburbs? Feel like we could make this the ultimate ilx thread if we try.

sorta feel it is closer to creating an ilx constitution by piecemeal outlining the crimes & misdeeds involved in posting

I don't even know who you are anymore

yeah that girl sweetly singing "til the sweat runs down my balls" was definitely just exploring the melodic possibilities of the lyric for purely musical reasons

are you seriously arguing that people need to treat a lyric like "til the sweat runs down my balls" w/reverence and respect for the historical weight of sweat running down people's balls

um no, not at all? my post was in response to resident devil's advocate iatee saying "I'm not getting the sense they're doing it for lols"

some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:30 (twelve years ago) link

my stance: if you dont have balls, if youre not sweaty, dont sing it

Cooper Chucklebutt, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:31 (twelve years ago) link

it's a feminist move, like aretha making otis's "respect" her own

some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:34 (twelve years ago) link

ya I'm just skeptical that 'white college kids do a cover of a rap song' is this inherently racist thing, like obv it can be a lot of the time but I'm not willing to assume it always just is. that clip wasn't a bunch of kids posing and making gang sings. doing shitty covers of things is an important part of american college culture, see: acapella.

iatee, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:46 (twelve years ago) link

I'm not getting the sense they're doing it for lols, they probably think their 'get low' sounds really good. I didn't get that they were nec mocking something.

i really thought this post was shooting down the idea that there was any humor in the "Get Low" cover, not whether that humor was of a mean-spirited or racist nature

some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:49 (twelve years ago) link

im happy to say that its inherently racist if that means that no one ever does it again

max max max max, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:50 (twelve years ago) link

white college kids do anything is inherently racist

є(٥_ ٥)э, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:50 (twelve years ago) link

bringing this full circle was it racist when whiney went on stage w/ public enemy

iatee, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:50 (twelve years ago) link

I'm willing to go w/ 'yes'

iatee, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:51 (twelve years ago) link

anyway maura's thing about karmin chick looking kind of pained while she raps and then delighted when she gets to show she can REALLY SING, Y'ALL was a good summation of how this stuff inevitably has a kind of condescending attitude toward rap that's not very tied to race per se

some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:51 (twelve years ago) link

tbf whiney is an irl 'public enemy'

Cooper Chucklebutt, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:52 (twelve years ago) link

maybe she's looking kinda pained while she raps because she is a white girl who is raping

iatee, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:53 (twelve years ago) link

errr rapping

iatee, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:53 (twelve years ago) link

uhhhh

rape/rap jokes are terrible when done on purpose but the accidental typos are always classic

's0 wasted'

є(٥_ ٥)э, Thursday, 29 December 2011 19:59 (twelve years ago) link

"Wasted" being basically a 'lol white people' song to begin with makes that at least kind of thematically appropriate or meta or something

some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 29 December 2011 20:00 (twelve years ago) link

we need more videos of black college kids rapping bon iver songs

max max max max, Thursday, 29 December 2011 20:02 (twelve years ago) link

no we don't need anything "more" bon iver

shakur rump (I left my login in El Sandboxo), Thursday, 29 December 2011 20:02 (twelve years ago) link

it's pretty hilarious when kanye has charlie wilson dub backup vocals all over bon iver's parts on his songs to make it sound as if he's 'soulful'

some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 29 December 2011 20:04 (twelve years ago) link

why do black ppl never want to bon iver?

i couldnt find it but there exists a p rad 'rap' version of bon jovi's wanted dead or alive somewhere on youtube i know it oh im sure of it
