  • Corsets make me feel so much better about myself. I got mine at an estate sale lol. They help with the “wideness” dysphoria. My girlfriend says I have child bearing hips when I wear one, not just saying that in a horny way.

    I use connect or liftoff depending on which instance I’m on. Liftoff seems to upload a little bit better, but is also missing a few features I’d consider essential like being able to load a specific comment thread from a notification.






  • Yeah I know what you mean :/ it was one of my most listened albums before he started being an anti-semite, but it just makes it so much harder. Wiley did a lot of the production on Boy In Da Corner, but Dizzie hates Wiley with a burning passion now. It’s tough with Wiley specifically because he could be argued to be an inventor of the genre. Pirating his stuff isn’t a bad idea. He’s too important in the history of grime to fully avoid between all his production credits and features, however it’s a very loaded recommendation because Wiley is a POS. Related: Diss track from Skepta using a somewhat legendary Wiley beat from a decade previous to the diss.

    I’d say grime is more lyrical than American hip-hop in the fact that being your own person and being independent are much more valued in grime culture. JME’s vegan bars would be controversial in American rap, while in Grime it’s seen as charming and funny even by non vegans. Grime has lyrically boring tracks just like any other genre, but there’s more freedom to be a unique personality within the movement because it has some roots in punk. It’s okay for JME to be a straight edge nerd that loves to get more technical with his writing, he’s one of the biggest rappers in Grime. JME, Skepta, Wiley, Flowdan and Kano all have extremely unique personalities and music within the genre and it’s praised. It’s more about the music than the social dynamics, so it’s okay to be corny because you think a line is funny.
