I feel like so often I'm more disappointed than happy to find out more about artists I like. Personally, Peggy working with Kanye, Yung Lean recently hanging out with Kanye - that stuff was shitty to see

Who are some artists who are based that you appreciate?

    ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    I still like their stuff but they have some issues. They were doing some NFT stuff/ETH stuff, part of their self-titled was recorded on a confederate flag guitar (meant to be a tribute to Dimebag but still), and of course their Call of Duty tie-ins running cover for what is essentially military propaganda.

    That all being said, Syn can still fuckin shred

      I think you laid out exactly why I'm always wary, like they're a hop-skip-jump from becoming yet another chud band. But they haven't yet, so I can give them that credit.

        I think they're too weird to get into the chud scene. Five Finger Death Punch is essentially what they could have become, but I think their weirdness pushes chuds away a little.
