THE NEW KEN CARSON ALBUM IS GOOD! HE IS A LEGIT ARTIST! KEN CARSON FTW!!!!!! OPIUM!!!!! RAGE RAP!!!!!
It's impressive how rage rap is able to be such a singular thing; like, yes, I am not going for these guys for socioeconomic lyrics, but they contain feeling, rawness that can't be denied, can't be imitated. "Xposed" is the a rollercoaster ride; the melodies are "K-Hole" are sweet as sugar; "Inferno" is so ferocious. RAGE RAP FTW!!

Grrrrrrrrr *flex bomb* TALK TO EM *flex bomb*
Listen. I’ve been waiting YEARS you hear me YEARS for these mfs to drop! I could go on and on and on about the bars. THE BARS!? I’ve personally always thought Malice was a better rapper so it’s good to hear him body shit again. Shoutout to P too. I was nervous because when you think of Clipse, it just doesn’t sound right without Neptunes production. Every beat was dark and nasty. Like uggggggh P knew he had to come correct for a Clipse album. I’m just happy to see coke rap legends coming back with a great body of work. I get it, alotta people probably hate it. That era of rap is pretty much dead at this point but it’s good to hear mfs just destroy shit again. Bring back bars please. PLEASE.

❄️It’s cocaine summer again, do I have to say more?
Crying about the death of their parents and then telling me that she wants mike Tyson blow to the face? Kendrick telling me that therapy showed him how to open up? It also showed him he don’t give a fuck? Tyler tellin me that he wants God to play the lead in his biopic? Pusha tellin him jones he’s gonna close his heaven for the hell of it? and that their yellow diamonds look like pee pee? Malice explaining how he found god and the sewer found the gun the police could never find? And that he’s never leaving his house without his piece like he mahatma? And that’s just the thing I remember while writing? Never felt more devastated and sad and arrogant and cool and honest and funny at the same time.
Most precise, fun, honest, arrogant and griefing album this year. And Pharrell is outdoing himself it’s just crazy

📲I'm often accused of being an "old soul", a categorization I vehemently dislike because it pretends as if my taste is because of nostalgia, as opposed to what is actually cool and compelling. (If something cool comes out now, I enjoy it, but we're in a down period when it comes to culture). But, something old about me, is that I do not care at all about TikTok ending, if does happen. If Elon takes it over from the Chinese, you might as well leave anyway, but I'm just worried at why this is a huge deal for people. It's just an app. Another one will be made. TikTok is not culture, it directly flattens culture into these ten second clips that take music, movies --- things that you need to process --- into something that is now consumed by everyone at a rapid pace, not allowing for the nuances, the style, the aesthetics to sit with us.
I have never watched something on TikTok and thought that this is something in that pushing American culture to deeper heights. I am sorry. Now I am sure they're good stuff on the app, but it's not really a necessity. Whenever I hear the words "it's blowing up on TikTok", my mind immediately growls.
I understood why X becoming overrun with Elon bots and right wingers is a big deal; X actually created things, made careers, made American life, and American events available to be seen by everyone. However, TikTok is a corrupt fantasy, chopping at the wires that make physical connection important.
Read a book! Go to the movies! Go to the restaurant of a cuisine that is unheralded, go to a baseball game. Who cares about TikTok?

🍖Like almost every morning, I make a big ol breakfast salad for myself. Eggs, greens, onions, tuna, spanich, olives. I never taste anything as filling as this. It's perfect. Great if you are looking for a big breakfast to hold you down during your work day. Get yourself a salad spinner; makes it easier.

🎥There's something quite startling about Martin Scorsese's 1980's period compared to the rest of his decades as one of America's greatest filmmakers. In the 80's, he was weird, strange, and making weirdly manic films that feel more New York than even some of his movies about the mob. They're movies about characters who aren't glamarous people that they want to be, but rather, are losers who can't seem to correctly fucntion in normal society. They're non-violent sociopaths. I saw The King of Comedy at Metrograph recently, and it's exhilarating, hilarious, manic, and scary. With Jerry Lewis, Bobby De Niro and Sandra Bernhard, Scorsese was able to create a world where incels who are bad at comedy are wishing for fame. Sound familiar?
This is a great movie. In 1983, it was a box office flop. But in 2025, it is magical in how it's telling the future. A future of scam artists who don't want to work to get there, and don't want to sit in their mediocrity: they want to steal to get their fifteen seconds. Go watch this masterpiece.
