I’m not going to either. You can’t make me. I can’t even imagine what it sounds like and I won’t try.

    But have you heard Not Like Us?

    (Euphoria was the best song in the Drake diss saga and it’s not even close, but Not Like Us is the one dems played to death)

    Just cause the libs taint trends in music and pop culture like this doesn’t mean it’s bad. That said, I liked the first song on Brat, but the rest of the album wasn’t my thing.

      tbf the artist also tainted it with that association.

        still doesn’t make it bad. if you’re gonna say all liberal music is bad, then you’re gonna have a hard time finding music to listen to.

          I’m not talking about the work itself, I mean that psychologically the association was pushed by the artist, who is popularly regarded as the main authority on a piece, saying that “candidate embodies the spirit of my album”. I’m speaking on the level of rhetoric here.

          That said, it’s extremely easy to find music from people who don’t fellate reactionaries like that, even if they’re still liberals or whatever.

            I disagree bc as a longtime Charli fan I see it more like she made a shit post and then the desperate Democrats went way too far with it. It’s not like she’s posting like Stephen King about how great the Democrats are all the time. She made one post and then went back to doing coke with her DJ fiancee.

            Making one post on Twitter is not “fellating reactionaries” and it’s extremely misogynistic to frame it this way

      i honestly think a lot of the backlash against Brat is rooted in sexism tbh (not accusing OP or you of that, i get we’re shitposting here)
