#I find it slightly more acceptable to potentially 'pester' Alex with TLSP/ Miles questions

Miles being asked about TLSP in interviews: overdone. Kind of sad & frustrating. Unoriginal. Often bordering on disrespectful.
Alex being asked about TLSP in interviews: innovative. Barely done. Has great potential.
I DARE these interviewers to flip their approach. Come on cowards, go ask Alex about Miles this time.

#listen - it all depends on the context#all these artists deserve for the interviews to first and foremost focus on the work theyvare currently releasing and promoting#and then when it gets to the 'questions for funsies' segment - go off. Ask em about other things. Like their other projects#BUT#Keep a good balance#and dont go only quoting that 1question all over your social media for the following week when the interviewed person came in for smth else#also#- this applies more generally to interviews too-#if they've recently alrewdy been asked that question in another interview.... just don't ask it again?#oh boy do I hate when these interviews are all just basically the same thing asked over and over#sure - there's basics that ate bound to repeat. but do you research and think of something original!#/#another thing#I find it slightly more acceptable to potentially 'pester' Alex with TLSP/ Miles questions#because of the power/ audience / recognizability dynamics#and if you don't understand that.... well I don't feel like explaining. Seems pretty obvious to me#would also be mad if someone obviously only focused on tlsp questions for Alex when The Car first csme out - and ignored that release#but generally there's just more space there - I believe - to discuss tlsp for a little longer#Alex never been reduced to ONLY that one project like Miles is often being#// also yes: disclaimer. I dont really hide the fact that I do love when I get to hear Miles mention Al.#but just...#balance. We need balance#it needs to be done in moderetion okay?#and there's a time and space for it too.#it was fine for 1 quick question in an interview after a long-ish hiatus. And with TAOTU turning 15. now hopefully other's let it go#PHEW#I have sooo much to say about this#but that's enough tags for now#//#my posts
