(it's because they *are* the bad guys)
here's APD destroying medics' water bottle supply during last summer's protests

almost all of our greatest living writers are rappers
Rap writing gets diminished in its impact like no other craft. You could be penning a song with the depths of a 70’s Chilean romantic and someone will still be like “you still writing them rappy raps?” while doing mock rap hands

joe bastardo is a criminally under-heralded synth wizard. he's been putting out incredible music for years as bastian void. this newest one is full of meticulously arranged, comfortably melodic compositions that explore the less menacing side of BoC synth psych.
