Tales of Paul Simonon's effortless rizz: The Clash signing autographs at their WBLS radio interview in NYC, 1981, as captured by Paul Busch.

When the Clash came to the US, the band, impressed with the burgeoning hip hop scene, fully embraced that NYC vibe and 'The Magnificent Seven" was one of the earliest takes on rap by a rock band. When they hit New York in May 1981 for a three-week residency, the landmark black-owned soul and R&B outlet WBLS had "The Magnificent Seven" on heavy rotation.

Here's footage of The Clash performing the song on New York-based talk show "The Tomorrow Show" with Tom Snyder, as well as archival shots of the band in Manhattan during their residency at Bond’s International Casino: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD5N0rTsulQ

HENRY ROLLINS, DUFF MCKAGAN, AND BODY COUNT

I’m still kinda reeling at how brilliant this all is.

Kendrick and other artists absolutely knew Drake was getting raided by the feds.

It’s why he sold all his American properties a year ago, it’s why he’s insisting on going on vacation now.

It’s why Katt Williams said 2024 would be the year a lot of these monsters got exposed.

It’s why Kendrick said ‘Might write this for a doctorate’ on Not Like Us.

Kendrick Lamar has made a number one record telling the world that the biggest hip hop artist rn is a predator and trafficker and is about to get busted. It’s all over the world. Everyone knows this song. It’s broken so many streaming records.

He has nowhere to go.

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, run for your life.

Darkness finds; 2022.

@postpunkindustrial has become one of the most thorough and present accounts on here. In fact, @womenofnoise declared him one of three parts of The Unholy Trinity. He’s posted many finds from industrial, breakcore, new wave, goth rock, no-wave, experimental sounds, and also hip-hop. He’s also one of the most generous, too. From time to time he’ll open some releases for download to all of his followers and passers-by to grab.

One good thing about underground and obscure musicks is that once you feel you’ve heard it all, there’s always something that’s you’ve either overlooked or didn’t know existed. If you had before, at least you’re relieved to know that someone else has also been where you came from. And if not? That’s a chance to explore some news sounds and appreciate the ones you’ve already had.

Here’s only a few of many grabs that’s available, including new ones I came across as I revisited last year’s finds. These are all coming into play as I attempt to come back and reach for many purchases in my possession I’ve yet to listen to.

Cancel culture may not be “real” or lasting or whatever, but people DO need to be held accountable for the shitty things they’ve done or said. If you dig into anyone’s past you’re bound to find something you don’t like. It’s part of the human experience to learn and grow from past mistakes, to recognize when you’ve had a bad take that was based in ignorance or hatred. And although I myself have been struggling with forgiving people for things, I can at least appreciate when an artist calls themselves out or makes some type of apology in regards to the not great things they’ve done.

So please stop trying to “point out” things from Kendrick Lamar’s past as an example of why he should be canceled while completely ignoring the fact that his entire discography has been about his journey of healing and growth. I don’t care if you don’t listen to rap. If you bothered to go through his music you’d know that he’s mentioned time and time again that he’s not a perfect person, that he’s done bad things and that he’s put in the work to fix it. This man has rapped about being in therapy. He’s rapped about wanting to be a better role model for his children and community. He grappled with the guilt he felt for making music that contributed to stereotypes or lined the pockets of people who didn’t have his best interest in mind. He rapped about the pain he watched his mother go through, the pain he caused his wife by not being a better spouse. He rapped about the horrors he endured as a child and a teen and how much he’s grown from the dark place he was in bc of it.

If you want to get into his music and you don’t know where to start, just start at the beginning. Kendrick tells a story through his music. It’s a story of evolution and redemption that feels very, very genuine. And LISTEN to the lyrics. Actually try to understand what he’s saying bc even when you think it’s obvious what he’s talking about, I promise you it’s not. He won a Pulitzer for a reason. Another thing you have to understand is that he makes a lot of references to Black American culture, which is very widely copied, but rarely understood or acknowledged. And most of these references are made as a sort of protest.

I’m not here to make anyone feel bad about not knowing Black culture in America and how it differs from other American cultures, but it’s worth understanding, especially if you listen to rap, hip-hop, pop, country, jazz, rock, blues, etc. These are all genres that are rooted in Black American culture and most of them were made to protest oppressive systems. If you love Nirvana then you should understand where Kurt’s influence came from and how he was heavily against racism. If you like country music then you should know where it comes from. If you can listen to BTS and read all the translations of their songs, then you can at least try to understand rap lyrics on a deeper level.

There’s no shame in educating yourself.
