The Unpopular Opinions thread

[Alienfish]

Honestly, some rappers have pretty lame lyrics, but there are some rappers who have done a lot with their music. Kendrick Lamar, for example, has released a lot of really good thought provoking music. To Pimp A Butterfly has a lot of jazz influence. There is a podcast called Dissect on Spotify that digs deep into the album. I recommend checking it out. It might give you a new appreciation for that kind of music.

Yeah, there are some older bops that's actually doing social problems music of the nice kind like some swedish 90s-00s rappers but yeah that was not my kind of bop. i looked up the dude along with some songs and lyrics from the album and yeah no. also fusing it with jazz doesn't make it better bc i kinda love jazz and yeah fusing stuff with hiphop that way eh. not what i'm looking for..and also i think it's def okay to dislike hiphop/rap things and the fact people are defending it so hard is kinda amusing.

also i love how a lot of ppl think right wing politicians are "good" just bc they have clear opinions... guess what some leaders back in the days too had and they were not good honestly if people are looking for just stability no matter what they say we got issues.

I hate cooked onions. I just do. Raw, uncooked onions are the best to bite into. Super refreshing!

I also love raw onions, but I think caramelized onions are the best. They take a long time to make, but are so worth it! Especially for soup.

i'm not saying you HAVE to enjoy hip hop, music is completely subjective and people are free to enjoy what they want. but there's an unfortunate amount of people who reject the very concept of hip hop so strongly to the point that they're willing to say it's "not music". that type of elitism is imo really toxic and discredits so much honest work that has been put in by so many over multiple decades

also hip hop is SO diverse it's quite literally impossible to generalize it lyrically. you have people making politically-motivated hip hop about topics like racial tensions and inequality in america (eg. this is a major concept in kendrick lamar's to pimp a butterfly as was previously mentioned), introspective and self-reflective lyrics expressing a wide variety of emotions that can be so abstract they're essentially poetry, playful and laid-back storytelling, and then there's of course the more 'mindless' boastful stuff that won't be for everyone

the extreme vast majority of rappers do not rap about 'the hood' and these days with how diverse the scene is you have new artists coming from all across the world from so many different backgrounds. there's no cohesive lyrical content or sound to all of hip hop, it's just a vehicle that you can take in 50 different directions. and just because the performer isn't traditionally singing or the instrumental is repetitive doesn't mean it's not valid as music

1. Orange marmalade doesn't taste too good
2. Shrek is an overrated movie franchise
3. Meat carpaccio slowly starts to lose its "good taste" the more I eat of it

Furthermore, I really don't know anything else. XD

I've never questioned it until now, so this is the moment I realised marmalade isn't always orange.

I don't like steak. I've had "good cuts" too and I just don't seem to understand the obsession. Everyone around me seems to think steak is the best thing ever.

As much as I like eating meat, steak is one thing I don’t like eating. Especially if made in the oven and not on the barbecue. I can take chicken fried steak, but not regular steak.

Other meats I don’t like:

- Chicken breast
- Porkchop
- Lamb
- Fish

I’m more of a person that likes pork sausages, chicken thighs, beef patties, beef sausages, and traditional sandwich meats.

gonna change the subject here folks sorry lol

- this forum penalizing posts that were edited or had post merges added by taking away the TBT it gave the user is downright scummy and i will never not hate that.
- the 3ds took away the best feature of the dsi, the flipnotes, and i will also never forgive that.
- entertainment that is just for entertainment, and not for asking questions and encouraging thinking, is inherently inferior. i'm not saying you're bad for enjoying it now and then (after all, animal crossing is just for fun and yet i'm here lol) but films and books that are not just for fun do not hurt, you know?
