Donald Glover was masterful at showing how awkward it can be trying to navigate the weird new corporate music world. Weed sales still supplementing rap sales ....unless your single is popular. Atlanta is great at showing how fucked up things are when examined

SPORTING WAVES
  • Paperboi failed to heed Number 3, never trust no-bo-dy moms'll set that ass up, properly gassed up
  • Black artistry still has to court white money....smh
  • Spotify, Google, Uproxx and Facebook and start ups are super white and corny like Fresh
  • They treating Earn like a zoo animal while he eats cheerios
  • Paperboi has the same expression I have when labels tried sell me on Justin Timberlake music
  • Killing Bobby Shmurda going full bojangles on table for CACs
  • Paperboi can't code switch... his ATL scowl is hilarious
  • tumblr_p5ex6wlRNV1rrkahjo1_500.gif
  • Clark County ? he sounds and acts just like Chance the rapper
  • “Where my real n-ggas at” to an office full of corporate Millennial CACs
  • Earn learned about long term investing with the dogs
  • Trusting a paroled dude with 4K who's applying for a $12 an hour job
  • Prince of Tides !?! Waves still hot in ATL
  • Notoriety and fame don't mix with the drug hussle ....selfies get you indicted
  • No chase policy - "they gotta keep giving me great customer service"
  • tumblr_p5fo4uSe2e1x0bvwko1_500.gif
  • Put him in a group text with his girlfriend...? CACs on the cuckold life
  • White girl acoustic cover of Paperboi song will generate more revenue than original
  • Chance the rapper = Twix / Clark County = Yohoo
  • Tracey in a job interview looking like he's in the R&B group Zhane


Excellent

I got nothing to add...
 
Now I gotta binge watch Season 1 again because there's a whole level of depth to Earn's character that I didn't even pay attention to.

Like when the dude asked him about Princeton, I thought it was a joke because of where he is in life.

I mean how fucked up do you gotta be to the point where your parents won't even let you in the house?

I always thought he was the smart guy, because he's so smart-assy, but he actually does a lot of dumb shit because he's so focused on that chip on his shoulder, like Katt said.

I think the underlying lesson here is - just because you're a smart ass to people, that doesn't make you smart.

The funny thing is how he can easily spot the shit other people are doing is stupid, but not the stuff he does in his life

Like I hope he didn't blow the whole 4K, and took care of his living situation, class for probation and son
 
Probably deserves it's own thread but here's a trailer for a LaKeith Stanfield vehicle. Looks like an opening weekend watch to me.




Yes brotha...this needs it's own thread!

Finally, something different. That shit looks trippy, I'mma see that.




I was listening to the most recent episode of The Corner podcast and they mentioned it. The host Kel Dansby asked cohost Andreas Hale if he had any movie recommendations and he mentioned it having seen it previously at a film festival, and to check for it this June or so. For the fam' that don't regularly listen to the podcast it's worth a listen ... they cover boxing, MMA, pro wrestling, hiphop & pop culture. They're Vegas-based. Been listening to them in the podcast rotation in recent years. Don't have a timestamp though for the part about the movie ... as I listened to the show last Thursday or Friday ^


Glen from The Walking Dead's in the trailer at the 01:24 mark ...

Slowly but surely.
Look at Earn. He in there with his woman he got a fat check. 1st thought? "I gotta stunt"
WHY THOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Got robbed of his ability to Stunt tonight. He took an L every single minute of tonight from the bartender telling him fuck you to sitting in the limo after taking an L in the foot race talking about "I got it"
