I was engaging in wishful thinking. You are right with the Jordan Peele comparison. I remember hearing rave reviews for Get Out and I saw it when it came to television and was confused because it was just the same “white man bad” or race narrative we’ve been hearing. He gets treated like Hitchcock. At some point the “diverse reboot” trend has to run its course
Yea it’s different agents but same thing with endless reboots. This guy could’ve bucked the trend of endless reboots and remakes and could’ve done an original show inspired by x files like how X files is inspired partly by Kolchak. I have no doubt the usual current things will be in the show
I’ve heard for years the idea of pushing the most degenerate rap forefront being an agenda and Billy Corgan was giving an interview talking about the decline of rock bands and I plan on looking further into that. I guess one thing hip hop did when I was in my teens was expose me to older music thanks to sampling. I became obsessed with finding where they got the melody/beat from so I got into rock, jazz, old R&B, and Funk that way. My love of 50s rock opened me up to country, blues, bluegrass, and folk.
The whole “thicc” thing sort of ties into the whole “body positivity” movement which reminds me how a man will get so much flack for saying he doesn’t want to date a big woman but a woman can have all sorts of ridiculous standards.
Sorry for the tangent but I have heard this mentioned recently and it doesn’t surprise me
Love it!
