For the “how can I go to a concert if my parents won’t let me” - my good friend wanted to go to a metal concert in high school and his religious parents objected every time.

White rappers are sith. Only 2 can exist at any one time and one of them has to be the master (a veteran rapper, an old head) and one must be an apprentice (an up and comer, trying something new). It’s prophetic
@@dragon-id5uj No no I just watched it. Obiwan told Anakin that he has the high ground, and he should "back it up like a Tonka truck". At least that's how it is in the special editions
As a Brazilian it was kinda funny to see Anthony saying that Pitbull is not white lol. Sometimes I forget that race in US is very different than in Latin America.
Pitbull has white genetics but race has a lot to do with culture in the US so if you're culturally Latin American you're not considered "white" by association or privilege. Just goes to show how bs race is because a black Columbian and a black American are still both considered black lmao
I'm as gringo as it gets but I've lived in Central America for 12 years; while Pitbull comes across as totally white to me, I think I'd have a different opinion had I stayed in the US.
Anthony Fantano talking about the mafia is very hypocritical considering his real name is "big tony fantini" and traded his love and passion for organized crime and beautiful Italian dishes into passion for music reviewing on youtube he is truly a master at with and as a capo.
The "I cooka the pizza" context was even wilder it started with "the Mafia is not a fucking aesthetic" and a picture of sopranos. And the person wrote it because a Kpop group released a song with Mafia in the name. But it was about Mafia the game.
Also such a troglodyte take because if Nazi chic gets to be a thing then it doesn't matter if your pizza-pals got boo-hoo'd, Mafia still gets to be an aesthetic.
1Train is probably the best possé cut of the 2010s. We wont get a track with that much great names on it. A$AP Rocky, Kendrick, Joey, Yelawolf, Action Bronson, Danny Brown and KRIT (my fav verse) all killed it
Pitbull is definitely a white man. I guess because he's Latino he doesn't really get put into the white rapper category tho. In fact until that tweet it's something I never thought about
@@zachdirects No bro, over 1/3 of Cuba is either mixed and or black, due to the slave trades back in the 18th-19th century. My grandmother’s a dark skin Cuban that can hardly speak English
You idiots need to get off tiktok n read n article or something on these topics before you speak on it. just cause a Latinos skin is light doesn’t mean their parents are white people. latinos features and skin tones very by generation n genes due to mixing A LOT.
The best white rappers these days are in the underground/independent scene, that's for sure. The best ever, Cal Chuchesta, is still working on a follow up that will crush everyone.
right ?? tom macdonald is arguably the best modern rapper if not all time GOAT and is completely independent , super underrated and never talks about being white , just straight bars . he perfected what eminem was trying to do
@@jn2787 no offense, I don't know if you are for real or trolling (cause I always saw a lot of people shitting on him online). I can't really say anything about him cause I never really listened to him so far. Just saying the underground is huge again in these days and much more interesting than a lot of mainstream stuff. That's why I said a lot of great white rappers are around in that scene. I can't think of many mainstream white rappers that i know about that appeal to me (except earlier EM and Logics last album, but yeah he biracial.😉)
First we found out he doesn't really have the best teeth in the game, then we found out he sits down for his reviews. Now he doesn't even play bass at the start of let's argue. Anthony has really fallen off
Posse cuts are really an issue because not everyone is sitting ready at a mic to drop a verse on a track, a small community that you want to get select people on a posse cut gets to be an issue.
I’m unmedicated ADD as fuck so it’s all about the daily bullet journal. Many people totally underestimate the benefit of taking 15 minutes to sit down and be deliberate about what you need to achieve in a day.
You people know nothing lol just cause a persons skin is light doesn’t mean their parents are white?? How dumb can y’all be. Hispanics have been multi mixed for years
I feel like Americans don't think of us as white in the sense that in America historically both black and white people never really knew how to classify us (and they still dont), so yeah they probably think that we re not white because if we were really white then our whiteness wouldnt be so constantly questioned
As soon as anyone beyond elementary shows such a lack of comprehension towards a concept as simple as racial grouping, I instantly view them as mentally deficient... I guess good ol' melon here shall be one of those special ed kids from now on
You missed the point though. The tweet was grouping in Pitbull with Eminem, Macklemore, Mac Miller ect. all of whom are of ethnically white American races(European decent). What that means is the person tweeting saw Pitbull as an ethnically white american person of European decent(which he is not) and Anthony was calling him out for it
There's something to be said for the whole "no chorus" thing. As someone who has been writing a lot of poetry recently, I find writing hooks tedious most of the time. I think you summed it up well though. There have been a few times where a really catchy hook just came to me, and that becomes the inspiration for the entire song. At the same time, it can be a bit lazy to do it that way, especially if we're talking rap.
based from a question at 3:42 Tough question: If you get ear fatigue does that mean you can acquire more ear stamina, and run ear marathons at some point potentially running ear triathlons via music?
Let’s agree. That’s it, let’s just agree. There’s a lot of disagreement in this world, this world is too divided. For once, let us just agree to agree.
I haven’t watched one of melon’s videos in a long while, and got to the 100 gecs Dan Deacon take. my mans is as condescending and douchy as ever. Love it. 10/10.
I honestly quite appreciated your thoughts on reviewing, Anthony - at times it can feel like you're demeaning the music I enjoy, but at the same time a lot of the time I disagree with you I've had to deepen my reasoning as to _why_ . And for that, I have to thank you.
I went to a beach house concert and I regret to inform our friend's parents but they're worried about nothing I had a great time and came home in one piece
That's encouraging. I went to a Death Grips concert and came home in two pieces because Ride fucked me in half (Edit: Did I really say "chorus" instead of "concert?" Christ.)
@ronald Deschain when I went I didn't necessarily feel sleepy but I felt high 🤣 their music is smoothing but there's a Psychedelic Dreamy essence to their music and performance that makes you feel like you're in a high dream, it's amazing
On the topic of posse cuts, I agree with the statement but some really good ones have come out in recent times. My favourite being "Posse Gang Eight Million" which includes the talents of Jam Baxter, Dirty Dike and Dabbla. Definitely recommend the listen.
That Italy take is so lame cause I saw that thread, it was one guy who poked fun at a clearly virtue signaling Twitter user and he overreacted like crazy to an obvious joke. Everyone made fun of him after that. No, Americans do not think the mafia was a thing to be looked up to, we don't need a kid on Twitter to tell us how shameful we have to be of ourselves
2:40 bro this is spot on. I grew up in a Hispanic home and my parents had two rules 1) don’t lie about where I was going 2) answer if they call. I could have been robbing banks as long as I followed those two rules 😂
Compared to some of what gets reviewed on this channel, Black Midi and Beach House may seem tame, but there’s still some parents who would hear the dreaminess of Beach House or the eclecticism of Black Midi and just think “DRUGS DRUGS DRUGS.” I mean what else could it really be
Pitbull is probably white. People born in Latin America can be white, black, native american, asian the same way people in US can. The place you are born doesn't determinate your heritage.
I think The Next Day is more clearly SUPPOSED to be referencing/just being the cover of Heroes, while The Blue Mask looks like a bad bootleg, less intentionally or artistically done (even if it were)
That Bowie album cover seems lazy but suits his discography perfectly. I like to think of it as a canvas placed on top of one of his most iconic albums, where he can have fun playing as he wishes but can't escape from his own legacy (in general, the album has a nice set of songs that reminds its listeners why they fell in love with his music on the first place). Additionally, it's a thoughtful way of purposely vanishing his own face, his own body; when you match it up with Blackstar (and its album cover, of course), it's scary how everything aligns: they're the only two albums covers where he's not the protagonist.
I think that for me, a personal example of a good rap chorus that adds to a song is "The Message" by Grand Master Flash and The Furious Five (The song in some ways hasn't aged the best, but the core of the song to me, is still a net positive experience, along with a good barebones beat and spacy funk stings), the chorus in that song, really builds the tension of the song, as the narrators' increasingly become unnerved by the stress of their situations.
yo im glad you're working on your lighting and all that but at 3:00 the reflection in your glasses is nuts, maybe keep that in mind next time you're staring into the Influencer Lamp 2022
The person talking about there Dilemma on going to a concert. Gave me flashbacks asking my mom to let me go to BVB black veiled brides concert and her saying how she was, “concern”,…. I’m serious Black veiled brides. What happened at most was other teens and tweens wearing face paint with choppy colorful hair and glows sticks a lot of glow sticks that night.
Y'know, on the topic of good chorus/bad chorus, I really love the verses of Black Hole Sun and I think the chorus is super sluggish and boring. A couple decades of hearing it all the time on classic rock radio has made that really pent up inside me, haha
glad to see some love for the Blue Mask. my favorite Lou album hands down. every track is incredible, especially Underneath the Bottle, the title track, Waves of Fear and Heavenly Arms.
10:38 - I do think tho that rap tends to neglect the chorus more than other genres (rock, pop, etc), cause they focus/rely much more on the lyric-packed verses.
We can focus on more than 1 white rapper at a time, but every white rapper is subject to becoming overly hyped, loved by all for like 5 months, then a downward spiral where everyone hates them.
Tbh the posse cut take had me thinking of BH, and I get that it’s not the same as many different artists coming together for like one time and crushing it, they are (were 😢) a band. But that energy, the bouncing off each other in a large group and building collective energy throughout a track, letting each other shine, very reminiscent. When I think of “posse cuts” in the late 2010’s, I think BrockHampton
As of May 31st,Eminem is one of the top 10 most streamed artists of 2022, despite being a 90s artist who has not released an album in 2 years. Some People keep claiming that Eminem is no longer relevant, but it's just not true at all.

The person talking about there Dilemma on going to a concert.
Gave me flashbacks asking my mom to let me go to BVB black veiled brides concert and her saying how she was, “concern”,…. I’m serious Black veiled brides. What happened at most was other teens and tweens wearing face paint with choppy colorful hair and glows sticks a lot of glow sticks that night.
Y'know, on the topic of good chorus/bad chorus, I really love the verses of Black Hole Sun and I think the chorus is super sluggish and boring. A couple decades of hearing it all the time on classic rock radio has made that really pent up inside me, haha
Got the same style of to-do List Anthony - if I don’t have Calendar reminders or my whiteboard marked up it will be forgotten
Let's argue: NAV will drop the first 11/10 album
glad to see some love for the Blue Mask. my favorite Lou album hands down. every track is incredible, especially Underneath the Bottle, the title track, Waves of Fear and Heavenly Arms.
10:38 - I do think tho that rap tends to neglect the chorus more than other genres (rock, pop, etc), cause they focus/rely much more on the lyric-packed verses.
Fr tho, this episode was great. I think choosing more questions and less hot takes allowed for a far better dynamic. Keep it up, melon boy
Really loving the people aspect of 8:41 - 9:46
Thank you for another great vid
We can focus on more than 1 white rapper at a time, but every white rapper is subject to becoming overly hyped, loved by all for like 5 months, then a downward spiral where everyone hates them.
My homie Sik produced that cypher track back in 2016...dope posse cut
From the title I thought this was just going to be arguing about every single white rapper one at a time.
Tbh the posse cut take had me thinking of BH, and I get that it’s not the same as many different artists coming together for like one time and crushing it, they are (were 😢) a band. But that energy, the bouncing off each other in a large group and building collective energy throughout a track, letting each other shine, very reminiscent. When I think of “posse cuts” in the late 2010’s, I think BrockHampton
Very true, the energy and chemistry they all had was one of a kind. Every track felt like a posse cut.
As a parent I think fantano is giving some solid advice to the teen here.
Fantanos the goat for teaching his followers how to talk to girls
8:41
This is some great advice melon, just one problem...
People are also scary and make me feel weird.
"1 people = girl" was the enlightenment of the day. 😇
As of May 31st,Eminem is one of the top 10 most streamed artists of 2022, despite being a 90s artist who has not released an album in 2 years. Some People keep claiming that Eminem is no longer relevant, but it's just not true at all.
Fantano feelin' a little more brain meltier than usual today
Melon seriously bringing his A game on his advice this time. The concert advice and the shit about people being people were some S tier shit.
Doolittle is a masterpiece.
