Welp itβs official. Clipse did βMTBTTFβ at Camp Flog Gnaw which means Pusha T got to say βthe Bezos of the nasalβ live on Amazon Prime. π€

βHey Lover,β βDoin It,β and βLounginβ propelled Mr. Smith to double platinum. And to show you he was still hard as hell, βI Shot Yaβ for good measure.

I think he was invited to the Playlist Retreat last year so that tracks.

If you bought tix for a tour marking a milestone anniversary of a critically acclaimed debut album and you read this, would you still be hype for the show? This isn't even the worst of it.
I think anyone over the age of like 40 is considered OG these. They call me that all the time at the gym and Iβm just now getting used to it. All this grey in my beard really hittinβ different lately.

20.11.2025 20:17 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Napster was illegal. Artists were within their rights to go after it. This time, all three major labels are officially involved. And if you're an artist signed to them, your hands are tied.
20.11.2025 16:25 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0These major labels decided that not giving artists a fair share of streaming revenue wasn't enough. Let's take things up a notch and license all of the music to a brand new app that'll let users rip songs to shreds using AI. It's an absolute sickness.

19.11.2025 20:14 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0It sucks that the first thing I thought of when I read "robots in your bloodstream" is the 2002 novel Prey by Michael Crichton. It's a great book. But it's also sci-fi/horror and a cautionary tale about advancements in nanotech. It seemed very far fetched back then. Now look at where we are.
