Next music post! This is the Jogja Hip Hop Foundation, a rap group from Jogjakarta, Indonesia. Their stuff slaps super hard, and they really love their quirky, interesting corner of Indonesia (already a very interesting place). I lived in Jogja for a little while, so I love seeing the scenery in their videos. Jogjakartans really love their hometown.
Hip Hop + Gamelan = 🔥🔥🔥

I was once told that any song could be a lullaby if you sing it softly and sweetly. Reblog this with a song you think would be interesting to hear as a lullaby.

Behold! A collection of posters Jason has had.
Poison Idea
Eric Peters
Rebel Kind
[Batman Issue 408]
Lacuna Coil
Slipknot
[Nightwing Rebirth Annual 2021]
Three of these are easy to find. Rebel Kind and Eric Peters are presumably real but I can’t find anything concrete that lines up with the time of the issue they appeared in.
Anyways, based on these, it seems that as a kid Jason listened to various Punk/Rock/Metal bands.

irreplaceable rant? to the left to the left
My irreplaceable rant is essentially:
When Beyonce wrote Irreplaceable it was like a giant stepping on an ant. Even in 06 she was shaping up to be a Juggernaut. B'Day launched at number 1 I believe? She was blowing up. Well established, producing bop after bop after banger after banger. And We bought Irreplaceable because we, fully, were on board. Beyonce COULD have another you in a minute. The mythos of Beyonce was taking shape. She was Beyonce, you were some guy. To the left.
When she wrote Lemonade it was like. Oh there are stakes now because whether you think Jay Z is great or not or a garbage dude or whatever, he's at least closer to her level than just "some guy".
Like. Of course she could have another you in a minute if you were some dude. But could she have another Jay Z in a minute? No, categorically she could not, and to say otherwise is to tell yourself fun lies because you hate cheaters or men or whatever. I am a firm believer that Beyonce is one of a kind and cannot be replicated in our lifetime as a cultural phenomenon, artist, creator, singer, you name it she is. incredible. But I'm also not going to pretend Jay Z wasn't in some ways just as singularly, powerfully monolithic with popculture just because most of this website understands rap less.
She writes the Sistine Chapel about him because like it or not, she wants to. She looks at him and sees things you could only dream of creating and I for one am just happy to be here, and could care less what you think about Beyonce's specialist boy who is the catalyst of some of the best music I've heard in the past decade, and also someone who MADE some of the best music I've heard in the past 20 years as well.
Beyonce's first solo recording was 03 Bonnie and Clyde, btw. As in, she was a feature on a Jay Z song before even releasing Dangerously in Love. Which. Also prominently has a Jay Z feature. In the lead single. That arguably launched Beyonce's career. Why would she ever write songs about the man who helped her launch her career that she has been married to for 16 years. A damn mystery.
And for the record, if she wanted to make the most beautiful art in the world about literal garbage, so the fuck what. We hate Duchamps The Fountain on this website now? Irving Penn spent years taking extremely detailed, well composed photos... of actual trash. Like Mud Glove. His photos were hanging in the Smithsonian a few years ago. Turns out beautiful art that says something, even something about trash? Still beautiful.

what spotify fails to consider is that the vast majority of songs i listen to from 2000 or later are just reissues of old albums with incorrect release dates on spotify. or anthologies. but then theres those handful of modern artists that lead to playlists like this
