intro printmaking class has their first projects up on the wall - one was titled "Same Love", another from a different student was titled "Thrift Store"

i hear this song at the gym all the time and all i ever hear is the sax and the chorus, the raps are completely inaudible on the gym speakers fwiw

they were playing a macklemore song as bumper music on my local sports talk radio station

xpost that's like how this lady in my office plays the radio at such a low volume that the only thing i ever hear at my desk is the synth line to "we found love" 5 to 6 times a day
― ❏❐❑❒ (gr8080), Friday, 8 February 2013 18:28 (eleven years ago) link
haha yeah workplaces and other situations where radio is kept at an almost subliminal volume is one of my biggest pet peeves

yeah just hear the faintest hi-hat patterns and shit, so annoying
― downton arby (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 8 February 2013 19:00 (eleven years ago) link
really the most offensive part of this song is the blatant Nate Dogg imitation on the hook

i just listened to this song for the first time

holy shit this nate dogg thing is unbelievable

this is like if nate dogg's career had gone horribly wrong in the 90s and he had collaborated with LFO

He was looking for a guy that sounds like Nate Dogg. For a decade, I've been known as the Nate Dogg of North End in Seattle
― dirty drone barack boy (some dude), Saturday, 9 February 2013 04:18 (eleven years ago) link
i honestly didn't mind that part of the song that much until i learned they wrote it purposefully as a faux-nate dogg hook, ugh

between this, Urthboy and K'naan it's seeming like a really good year for hip hop pop, or whatever this stuff is, to me. (Plus all the 2010/2011 grime I missed at the time.)

I live in the North End and totally did not know him as the Nate Dogg of North End.
Also might bear mentioning that the North End is the mostly white part of Seattle.

"For a decade, I've been known as the Nate Dogg of North End in Seattle" has a better ring to it than "For a decade, I've been known as the black guy of North End in Seattle"

I guess by some measurements "Thrift Shop" is slightly better than "I Love College," but otoh the damn, that's a cold ass honky line is the worst thing to ever happen

there hasn't been non-hatable white frat rap* since House of Pain
* black frats exist and they listen to rap too, just in case you forgot; in fact, all rap can be described as "frat rap"

I dunno, the whole repeatedly being sanctimonious towards black people in his lyrics thing gives me a special hate-on towards him. Plus the yeaaaaarrrrs of people trying to shove this guy down me throat.

a couple years ago, i was in a bar and heard this guy explaining really loud and insistent how REAL RAP was better than all that fake shit on TV about bling and guns and cars and shit, that REAL RAP was positive and enlightening, and all the gangsters and dealers and bitches and shit were a con, a commercial ploy, the debasement of a pure form in the hands of perpetrating phonies. there were only about four people in the place, huge place, and i was so fucking to tempted to go over there and beg him to shut up, maybe just hold it down, was so painful to hear. i of course refrained.
just watched "thrift shop". ha! how wrong was i? he's a star.
