i have been trying to figure out why the whole 'fae god' and katniss everdeen things with kendrick lamar on here were bothering me, and i think i finally put it into words.

most posts like that are probably coming from well-meaning white people (i am also partially a White People, to be clear), who otherwise dont really listen to rap. they cannot find a way to 'relate' to this black man who sings largely about issues that affect the black community– and rather than try and meet him where he is, they have to fit him into these little tumblr cultural boxes before he can be 'palatable' to them.

they have to shave off the rougher/more abrasive aspects of his work and activism because it makes them uncomfortable, that way they can pigeonhole him into something that allows them to enjoy his work without the critical analysis that MUST come with it

he is not your fae god, he is not a YA protagonist, he is not a little gremlin or a cinnamon roll or a blorbo. He is a human being with opinions and beliefs that deeply permeate his work, and to ignore that truth is to ignore the entire point. PLEASE try to engage with artists' work outside of the lens of tumblr fandom, and i mean that as nicely as possible. you are doing YOURSELF a disservice

#kendrick lamar #to clarify #i am a white person that isnt super familiar with rap culture as a whole #but thats more because im like that with literally every musician #half the time i can barely even name the lead singers of some of my favorite bands #i also only really learned of kendrick through the context of the disses he released last year #but the way people were reacting had me incredibly intrigued #so i DUG. i watched reaction videos. i watched people dissect the lyrics and explain #i watched FD signifiers breakdown of the whole history of the beef #and because of that ive been following the story as it developed #because i find kendricks cultural influence astonishing #and it makes me sad to see people just. ignore the history and culture of the conflict #while claiming to be invested in whats happening

please never go away

#enstars #ensemble stars #valkyrie enstars #mika kagehira #shu itsuki #shumika #erhm...........if you want me to explain this i feel like i would be the gif of the girl going “eto...bleh” lmao #it all started because of a video of moments of shu growling in songs and then i l read the lyrics for amor vincit omnia #i also feel like it doesn't make sense but i think that's the beauty of putting this in mika's perspective #cause i feel like he wouldn't be able to convey his love to shu the way shu would to him #i feel like he would just go 'oshi-san can i eat your heart?' cause that's where shu's love is stored in and that's the faster way to it #anyway i can't wait for my valkyrie trip album to come #art tag

"i get to thinkin' 'bout your sun-kissed face / and a quiet place i could give you all my time"

textless :3

based on a self-indulgent headcanon that lloyd laughs like a goofball and very easily at terrible jokes. he snorts and giggles and wheezes, his nose wrinkles and his grin is all sorts of lopsided. he has to hold himself from falling over, and crinkles form underneath his eyes, and he's laughing so so loudly and javier thinks it's the cutest look in the world. lloyd really should laugh more often, take it easy more often. it suits him.
