    So what’s everyone’s opinions on Grimes?

    ✓ Shooting a music video at a Canadian football game

    ✓✓✓ Her music is great. The past 3 albums are some of my favorites. Probably among the top 5-10 non-rap albums for me.

    XX Martian Musk Ox celebrity relationship

    X Giving the kid that name

    ✓ Before Musk her Twitter bio said “anti-imperialist”

    ✓✓ She’s very funny

    ✓✓ Dating Chelsea Manning after dating Musk. I think she was taking a hard left turn and I really like the idea of Columbia Music and Elon’s money paying Chelsea’s court fees as she was repeatedly jailed for not snitching on Assange

        Well yeah thanks for that…I went down a weird rabbit hole for too long. She made a space nazi joke on Holocaust Rememberance Day and liked some serious bullshit on Twitter. Surprised me as I remember she did Communist Manifesto photoshoot around the time she was dating Chelsea Manning. Her 2020 album had an environmentalist name, right before a global pandemic which seemed a bit prescient.

        I’ve always known that We Appreciate Power is a song about femme fascism furturism but well incoherent is the right word for her politically. She’s always been a troll. As of right now she’s trying to get a subreddit taken down she accuses of just being a defamatory sub playing gotcha games with Twitter. It’s a headscratcher. She’s 100% troll so “play stupid games…” etc.

        Apparently Elon and Grimes aren’t together so maybe she was being badly influenced.

        I’ll never forget hearing College Dropout and Late Registration and being a huge Kanye fan til about 5yrs ago. So this shit happening again would piss me off.

        I won’t accept her as being a Nazi til she does the Grimey equivalent of what Kanye did. She hasn’t yet.

        She’s the only one of a few of my favorite artists I haven’t seen live (in order of favorite to less favorite)

        Lupe Fiasco Vince Staples Dessa POS Sylvan Esso Phantogram K Flay

        Grimes would be #3 on this list Btw do we have music communties on here?
