like black people are present in every single fucking genre and scene and popularized and straight up created several but people are so fucking hell bent on finding every possible excuse to not engage with their music because its easier than trying to confront their own racism. like okay well if its truly just a disinterest in most rap music then surely you listen to black artists in other genres right? who am i fucking kidding. of course you dont.

anyways. you will listen.

this was initially just gonna be me force feeding all of you like black alt music but actually here. music from black artists with vibes all across the spectrum because what a fucking shocker black talent exists everywhere and if youre gonna be pulling the bullshit excuse of truly just not liking rap you need to learn to shut your fucking mouth and go back to tswift or broaden your fucking horizons.

A Bucket of Blood (1959)

Many of the early Roger Corman pictures weren’t copyrighted, based on the assumption that they’d have a run through the drive-ins and the. disappear (this became a problem later, when, for example, Little Shop of Horrors was adapted into a successful musical). This means you can easily watch a lot of them for free. The beatnik/art world parodying A Bucket of Blood is my personal favorite of the shoestring budget, 3-day shoot films, and if you’ve got an hour you can watch it here:

And here’s the original Little Shop of Horrors, which was shot a couple months later re-using the same sets from A Bucket of Blood (featuring a young Jack Nicholson, who got his start as part of Corman’s stable of talent, in a small but memorable part):

I think "they don't even have X" is one of those memes that's actually funnier in its original context than in anything that's been done with it subsequently. Like, in its original context, this is a joke about a man who has lived his entire adult life alone in a swamp cold-reading the atmosphere of a corporate workplace and deciding that appealing to the receptionist's sense of working-class solidarity is going to get him in the door, and it fucking works.

the greater context of this was meant to be humorous (hence the un-ichiban-like manner of speech) but i was delighted to learn this bit of lore 🥺
