Anonymous asked: i realize it's not so much your type of music, but i feel like there's a take in the whole \"extreme hardcore rappers who are also metalheads and weebs\" phenomenon that's the big new wave in rap (although the ones who've gotten mainstream from that scene like 69 and xxx aren't as much metalheads or weebs as, say, zillakami)

Yeah I\u2019ve been noticing that from a distance, but I really don\u2019t follow pop music enough anymore to parse it \u2013 like, all these Despacito jokes seem to work on the conceit that the song\u2019s unavoidable, but somehow I have

I don\u2019t understand what this is about but I remember the big new wave in rap of ten years ago hanging out on Newgrounds talking about how cool Naruto is, so the only thing I\u2019m surprised by is that it took this long

yeah during the \u201800s the iconic \u201crowdy black youth\u201d went rapidly from like gangsta to skate punk to mall katana and I think if someone had bothered to write this into our national narrative we\u2019d be in a better place today
