2022 NBA Offseason Thread: Preseason kicks off; Things are fine in Los Angeles, Draymond beats the charges

If you told me Dua Lipa was the girl who played Moana or the pig in Sing 2 all grown up I wouldn’t question. 2022 Avril Lavine is hilarious though,

That might be Jessica Reyes, although you’d have to add the qualifies grown and latinx.

I still bang Floetry and them 2 aint even messed with each other consistently for over a decade.

Do y'all think dudes out here Shazaming songs that we don't like?
It's really easy to NOT know who an artist is if you don't listen to their music.
I could walk past Dua Lipa right now and wouldn't know who she is.
I don't watch award shows, and damn sure ain't listening no playlist that isn't hiphop.

Feel like Dua Lipa is kinda like Maroon 5 though. Even if you have no idea who they are, there's probably a really good chance you've heard them. They're just too relevant.

I don't go out of my way to figure out who performs music I don't like either. Didn't know who Ariana Grande was for a long time until someone brought it up when one of her hits came on and I was like oh that's who that is.

Your favorite rappers are jumping on Dua Lipa songs.

This is also a forum with 99.9% guys so no idea why a Dua Lipa (white European female pop artist) thread would exist.

If you ever go to any public setting or even accidentally turn on the radio you‘ll hear a song of hers.

No they aren’t. Conway never mentioned her at a roc nation brunch

 

[D StaXX]

My wife's cousin didn't know who Kendrick Lamar was.
I thought that was crazy until she hit me with the reverse uno and asked if I knew who someone else was. We both were stuck looking at each other like damn

Remember when Stephen A said he’d figure out the OJ trial. “I’ve often said that”

It was so great when Carl Douglas called into Stephen A ‘s radio show and broke him down and had Stephen A apologizing for that insipid nonsense.

Different Americas I guess It’s very easy to avoid these people if you stay around your circle.

Traveling abroad to certain places & going outside there it’s impossible, I agree.

But if you’re always around your people, you’re not hearing these pop acts

He might have to. Mans hasn’t had a good song since 2020.

What do you all rap dudes listen to when you're doing something like cleaning the house on a Saturday morning, or any other such chill vibe activites? Sometimes some India Aire, Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu, etc. beats just fit the mood. Never mind if you are a play music while smashing guy. I guess there are probably some anthem (J Cole/ Drake- In the morning) but rnb would typically have a stranglehold on that genre

BINGO! She doesn't make music for me. There's no reason for me to listen to her.
&I couldn't tell you the last time I listened to the radio. That **** is dying out.

All good lawdog1 I thought they were the same like 4 years ago

Appreciate it, Sir. Yes, I’m probably more pop culture conversant than the average 46 year old white man, but I am a 46 year old white man. It’s going to show occasionally.

maybe I’m different but if this happened to me, I would go and see what the fuss is about. Even if I didn’t end up liking the artist, i would know who they are

My coworker was amazed that I didn’t knew who Dua Lipa was a few years ago. Then she played like 4 songs and I kept saying “oh i didn’t know that was her.”

Same with Billie Eilish. I had no idea if that person was a male, female, one person, or a group. Then my coworker played bad guy and I weebay’d.

 

[lynchpin33]

Rap city/Yo MTV raps/Video soul etc from 92-98 is my musical wheelhouse. Outside of what gets posted in here, I am not aware of the artists and definitely not trying to check out their catalog. It’s all mish mash to me.

 

[ballinsam23]

I listen to the same 5 rappers almost everyday. Whether in the car or at the crib. Mix it in with some techno/trance/house depending on the mood.

Nip, Dipset, Ross, Drake, French that’s been the only thing in the rotation

My kids are gonna be sick of hearing soca, calypso, reggae and motown/soul on weekends
They're gonna know Burning Flames, Buju Banton and The Manhattans by heart

Edit:
How could I forget Jazz That's gonna be their homework
