Radio station stops playing ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside’ amid #MeToo movement
Nikki replied to Magician's topic in General Music Discussion
it's ironic how this new overly protective mentality is what we were fighting against (freedom of expression anyone?) up until five years ago. next they'll call for a ban of Marilyn Manson videos on youtube. -
doesn't he just mix samples together and turn them into a song? seems like the hardest work is already done and he just glues cool bits together..

The most listened to radio station here always plays abba songs, even those that aren't very known. I hear their songs every time I listen to the radio, which isn't even that much. We also get a lot of stories and extra info about the group. Clearly some of the radio hosts are HUGE fans. (and whenever they play Cher covering it, they make sure to the listener that they're not big fans ) In their top 2000 songs of all time, Dancing Queen is always in the top three, along with Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody and either Purple rain or billie jean.

well, add in a little more coad/music experimentation 😉

ohhhh I looveee this. reminds me a little of stromae (though she seems less pretentious. sorrynotsorry) 😉 as usual, European artists are ahead of the curve. I really think this rap/bad hip hop shit has run its course and we'll see more of a dance/funk blend in music again. let's hope M doesn't repeat her hard candy mistake.

they call this shit "art" these days. and im not only talking about the "performance", the lyrics, the music, everything..
-
Finally someone who really is inspired and respectful. She takes the inspiration and applies it to the work, unlike other girls who sometimes wear something sexy and think that represents M the artist.

Needles and pins deliberately put in strawberries

I sometimes think of the possibilities of weirdos doing strange things like that.. the older I get the more I realise the amount of lunatics we share our world with. it reminds me a little of this.. -
so that's what this "take the knee" thing is. I kept hearing about it but never really looked into it. As usual the right is exaggerating a small thing (which was meant as a positive gesture toward POC) and they turn it into an anti patriotic message. Thanks for explaining 🙂

so what did the guy do to provoke such reactions? I saw the clip and they talk about how he's outspoken about injustice.. what are they talking about? he went a little too far with his opinions?

Alex Jones getting tossed out from major platforms
Nikki replied to Magician's topic in Politics and World Events
before the internet got really scary on a worldwide scale (social media), i had the opinion to let people discover how fucked up some people are and make up their own mind. I'm for freedom of speech. there used to be a time when it was beneficial to let the buffoon talk so the general public would see for themselves how idiotic loudmouths like him are.. however, with how things are going now, maybe it's not so bad that his stuff stays on his site and he doesn't benefit from google, youtube, apple.. -

Door een artikel te willen lezen van ss ("tourmanager klapt uit de biecht" met trouwens enkele M tidbits) heb ik een gratis trial van een maand waardoor ik het artikel met lucy heb gelezen. begon niet slecht, maar het is duidelijk dat de editor (of interviewer) zich wou focussen op haar image, niet haar talent (weer het foute cliché beeld dat ze gewoon hard werkt maar voor de rest wordt er weinig over het werk op zich gezegd, behalve de material girl en jml digs - ook.. lana del rey meer mystiek dan M? wat? zag ook wat foutjes van lucy over tracy en de BAT dansers..) ik denk dat de prince mention van lucy (waar zij M citeerde van de billboard speech) en de reactie hierop van "humo" toch wel een hint is dat ss er mss wel achter zat.. 😉 ben benieuwd voor het tourartikel van morgen 😉

so.. let's speak about the elephant in the room. did the carters get those 8 noms because the video is amazing/popular/HUGE/discussed everywhere/a big thing in music.. or because the VMAs were afraid of the beehive (or to be name checked by jay z in a shady song in the future) so they basically gave them a bunch of noms to be on the safe side? im not a taylor fan but I am surprised she didn't even get a pity nom for that video.
