      People still eat his slop despite the nazism. They don’t care, but his recent music has almost no cultural impact. Hell I remember when TLOP released and everyone and their moms had on Pablo merch. Memes about the songs were everywhere, and he basically defined the streetwear culture of the mid to late 2010s.

      Donda had one of the most interesting rollouts especially during a time when the whole world was inside. But then after that, it was just laziness. Not even experimenting with anything anymore, and if he does, it’s not even released or mixed properly.

      He’s washed and needs celebrity controversy to be relevant instead of making interesting music that sparks controversy.

        Yeah, TLOP was a fuckin event. Donda had an interesting rollout but wasn’t as big as TLOP.

        Really love Donda though because I literally died listening to the album the first time so whenever I hear “Hurricane” specifically, it just reminds me that I survived that and it makes me happy

        dude’s music has no cultural impact but i am, for no reason, posting about it

        Charli sampled Vultures on brat, the clear AOTY. maybe you can cue her in on its lack of cultural impact.

      If you read YouTube comments on his album, which are unfortunately made by real people when they aren’t trying to link you their OnlyFans, they’re all about “separating the art from the artist” and plan to keep consuming forever.
