Yeah i sort of avoided the grime that was popular in the mid 2010s just because it was everywhere, I got into the older grime stuff I think partly cause i got turned on to 90s rap and rnb, so of grime i''ve heard mostly just the classics like ruff sqwad, wiley, kano, d double e, dizzee, etc., Love ukg and dance pop from around that early to mid 2000s time period too, cant go wrong there.

If I could only listen to one artist forever it might be Sade just cause they don't really have any bad tracks, they're so smooth, and the bass grooves are always sick. Also don't think they get enough credit either for changing their sound over the first 3 albums, i love diamond life and promise but her 90s/00s albums have aged better bc of that for sure

the people who try to force the burden of a species worth of impact onto individuals are always just running cover for corporations n conglomerates; give them time to build society's tolerance for bleakness and whatever industrial-scale crime they're doing and internalise guilt for it before coming back to win the pr war and make money in some other slightly less evil way

people will refer to landlords as a 'social group' rather than advocate for anything non-milquetoast its par for the course

this bait sucks try harder

 

one of my favourite albums and contender for one of the most beautiful ever recorded, imo. Some further info on the cover, including a picture of them recreating the image for its 40th anniversary

I do this but I don't even like being tired, I was in the depression stage where I slept like 18-24 hours at a time for a few years, and ive slowly ended up regularly staying up for 24+ hours for no real reason idk probably just avoiding the few tasks that I actually end up doing. I've slept through multiple times when I've asked someone to come over to my place at a certain time, stayed up for ages (at least in part) because i get about it even though i've literally planned it myself, and then slept through people knocking and ringing my doorbell over and over. im ever so slightly dysfunctional if it isnt glaringly obvious.

listened to a bunch of Sade, Janet Jackson, and Vince Staples over the last couple days. I like UKG and some older grime too, Ruff Sqwad are one of my favs (former group of tinchy strider, did the instrumental that was used by stormzy for shut up much later)
