1.) I refuse to listen to Macklemore, because that’s just a ridiculous moniker. I don’t care if it’s his real name, he should have picked a better stage name. It makes me think of Lew Zealand.
2.) Donald Glover is just ridiculously talented. I’m not qualified to opine about how good a rapper he is, but the fact that he’s even considered passable (and my understanding, at least on his older stuff, was that he also played all instruments and did all the production) in addition to being a good writer, and actor, and stand-up comedian (have you seen his special?), is just kinda unfair.
3.) All this quirk, and no Fat Boys? For shame.
4.) Totally OT, but I, like many, have been belatedly introduced to Bo$$’ Born Gangstaz, via Orange is the New Black. I won’t link any tracks, because I am not sure even one is moderately SFW, but man this is a good record. And the backstory (girls make great gangsta rap record, with credible collaborators like Jam Master Jay, but basically get dismissed as frauds due to including “answering machine messages from her parents” skits at the start and end, questioning why a nice girl with a Catholic education would make a record like this) is also interesting.Report
If you don’t like “Macklemore” (which is not his real name), I recommend thinking of him by his Wu-Tang name.Report
He used to be ‘Professor Macklemore’? That’s slightly better.

No, some sounds are just too silly.Report
Oh, and Glover really is very, very talented. He’s a good rapper, though I admit to not liking his music all that much. I mean, some of it’s pretty funny (if you listen to any contemporary rap, the first video will probably crack you up), but once you’ve listened to it a couple times, you don’t need to listen to it anymore.
Still, way better than Macklemore.Report
Does Christmas in Hollis or My Adidas count as quirky pop hop? Because I can’t see how anyone can be sick of Run DMC.Report
I am wearing a Run DMC t-shirt as I type (though it’s underneath a couple layers). This should answer your question.Report
The Boy was feeling sick last night and wanted to watch Turbo (the racing snail movie) so we laid on the couch and watched it.
“It’s Tricky” was on the soundtrack, and he thought I had gone crazy when I joined in, with the rolled r’s and everything.Report
Thrift Shop has a parody/tribute dealing with the reefer. I found it odd that a parody would end up being vaguely more serious than the song it is borrowing from.

Donald Glover had me at “Took the ‘g’ out your waffle now all you got left is your ego.”Report
Yeah, that is a friggin’ awesome line, as is the one from which the song title comes:
My clique should be cancelled: Freaks and Geeks.Report
