interesting thoughts on the phenom from david turner:
I can’t stop thinking about “(Slow + Reverb)” songs on YouTube. There is this sense of collective anxiety that is driving people to watch these slightly toned down version of already chill songs that’s really endearing to me. Most of the videos are of emo rap and r&b with maybe a stray Tame Impala track snuck in there as well. The videos, and their comment sections, feel like young people attempting to retreat from a future in which they know they’re economically fucked. Yet, because they’re barely adults, the immediate place to go isn’t to childhood, but to only a few years in the past. Right before it became clear they were going to be stuck in this neoliberal trap.

seems like a stretch
i like the slowed down "ballin" a lot, it teases the bluesy quality out of roddy's voice in a cool way
