You seem to miss understand country, its Pop. Its been Pop. Then rap has been pop since OutKast, they are Good but Pop. Sorry Mrs Jackson, but rap is pop. Also driving Cadillacs in our dreams is lame, i would consider Portishead more acceptable in transforming rap. Used to bump UGK and Portishead, they would both bump just as deep and hard. Once you get th artist driving the charts, its Pop

Lack of common sense in the ads logic, cannot understand some, some tones are irritating, high volume 😠Remitly ad gets me every time 🥵

i learned how to read with HP, it was my fav book series growing up and I've read it more times than I can count. That being said, as a WOC, growing up and learning about racism and white supremacy and putting names to the trauma I've experienced has kinda ruined it for me forever. Back then, I just didn't know any better and there was just nothing to read targeted specifically towards people like me. Now, I see the book series as a lowkey reinforcement and reflection of many of the hateful and racist ideologies that permeate western societies. I'm not saying JKR doesn't write compelling literature, she does, but the content is undeniably stained by all of her values, even if she didn't openly express them back then.

I love this style of pop culture essay! It felt like a music business lecture in college😂 being in a music industry program in 2019 when old town road came out was wild lol plus 2019 it felt like the music industry was in a stale/declining stage and was about to have a huge shift, and then it did.

In my opinion, it’s a parallel effect of the rise of new wave Mexican corridos. The new wave of Mexican music on the radios in the US is guitar heavy, and this has helped soften people to the idea of more guitar in popular music

yeah

I am so happy that I found this channel while it's so small! I hope you post more content like this. On the video I also feel like there has been such a split in country since like 2020 with either Nashville country and then the Zach Bryan, almost folk country. I would love to see a video on that too.

This video is good as hell

As someone who lives in a European country where - as far as I can tell - has been of zero medial importance, at least for the longest time, and also as someone who's personal music listening mainly consists of unpopular metal stuff, this whole pop country development I'm only witnessing via American social media and RUclips is highly fascinating, but might as well be fully fictional. As far as I'm concerned, anything that doesn't sound like bluegrass isn't country, just country flavoured pop, and that's not me being weird about it, that's me being completely out of touch.

Commentary channels try not to stick "-ification" at the end of every imaginable concept challenge (impossible)

"What is going on with the music?! " Beautiful, beautiful things...

I don't think you can give much credit to punk for making much of a response at all to 911. Besides American idiot, there weren't many protest albums, if any, that charted in any genre.

Good for both genres. Previous wave country was in a bad place and rap currently.

Post Malone is an industry plant. He is not a rapper, nor a country star. He is a product.

great video my dude

The 2010s were terrible for my ears because I was stuck with the same songs over and over at work!

I think you have it the wrong way around. Rap overall hasn't taken much from country, but country has taken a ton from rap.

The candlelight at the end killed me. This is a fantastic essay on HP and a fun presentation.

I love the style of this video. All the analyses are very thought out. As a mild hater of country, I feel like I've gained some context and appreciation of all the music that's been breaching the airwaves. Great video!

Lmfaoooo I knew when I saw the title this was a white guy... please don't.. not watching fuck your opinion.

WOW i was expecting way more views and comments. great vid! sat through the whole thing and got disappointed when it ended so soon! could've watched a whole documentary on this topic

23:25 "I'm not here to name names or debunk anyone else's opinion, as if this stuff isnt subjective anyway. I'm not gonna invent some pseudo-imperical data" after trashing JK Rowlings opinions 🤦‍♂️

You should post more, this is a genuinely engaging video and I was shocked to see it was from such a relatively small channel. Keep it up.

Rap is the new guitar solo is an amazing phrase. I live in Argentina so this is the first time i heard it, spot on.

I would also say there’s a considerable “country is now rap” wave going on for the last decade or so. Florida Georgia Line, Lil Nas X, etc

Spot on critique...thx!

The Rocket Money reveal made me gasp! Of COURSE it's a monthly subscription service...

Don't you know about her very successful 'Strike' series? How embarrassing. She's still an active and popular author. Also you, as a man, shouldn't be telling a woman how to do feminism.

Pathetic take on Rowling… I agree with her take on transgenders and I am glad she is speaking her mind.

“90s fuckboy name” got me lmao

Great video and so important

Great video man!

Brother I'm gonna be real Rowling DEFINITELY had a huge hand in Cursed Child. It's pretty much on par with the original series, we just aren't looking at it with nostalgia goggles

It’s so ethically wrong to put another group of kids in the spotlight like that for another ten years. Even worse because they will be constantly compared to some of the most beloved child performers of all time. Horrific.

Good to see you still got that dawg in you

One should not separate the art from the artist while the artist directly benefits from their success and uses those benefits to spread hate.

I think you underestimate how much conservatives will contradict themselves. They will absolutely support the new show just because jk Rowling is involved and will constantly try to claim it's anti woke, regardless of what it does...

They should make it into an animated show like arcane

It would be cool if they make Neville the Chosen One in this version but I doubt it.

That intro alone is so cringe. I hope your life is devoid of joy and that you'll end up alone without a soul to care!

What a weirdo you are. 😂

If you think JK Rowling is a bigot for saying men are men and women are women you're a moron.

Giving my perspective as someone who fell out of love with HP while the books were going on (for me, the books are the main thing - the movies are just add-ons): I am a Millenial who was just at the right age for book one and I loved the books until the end of the Goblet of Fire (and I read all of them as they came out from book three or four). This is where they started to lose me. And while reading The Order of the Phoenix, I remember _hating_ Harrys puberty antics and just wanting to smack him all the time (at this point, I was 17 and Book-Harry was 15 - also, I am AroAce and female). I somehow found back to the books with the Half-Blood Prince - again until the end. Killing Dumbledore got me. And I didn't appreciate it. And I _hated_ The Deathly Hallows. (I never watched the movies.) Having Harry, Ron and Hermione camp in the **** woods for the entire **** book while just listening to other people talking about who has died off-page now. *And at the same time those dumbasses were wearing the *** horcrux locket they got from Umbridge.* (I distictly remember leafing back in the book to where they got the locket to find something to explain why they were stupid enough to wear that thing that contains a piece of the soul of He-Who-Must-not-Be-Named. Something like them being unable to transport it anywhere than on their bodies. But I did not find such a passage. ... So I must assume that all three of them are _bloody stupid_.) And at the Battle of Hogwards, where Rowling killed off one of the Twins (doesn't matter which one - maiming one in the first chapter was bad enough), and *** killing Lupin and Tonks off-page, I was done. Not mentioning that contrived BS that made Harry come back to life. For me, J.K Rowling lost me with her writing during the book series itself. And I can never go back. For me, Harry Potter is done. The garbage J.K. has pulled since then just adds to the pile for me. I know what has been going on in the Phantatic Beasts' movies - but I don't care. (I share the same birthday as J.K. Rowling / Harry Potter and knowing that sucks now.)

i will be very surprised, if not floored, if they can afford to do the whole series in tv format. unless the production value is way down, that’s going to be expensive beyond belief

shoutout to the amazing sound bites you used for every chapter card - they were all perfect

Look, I enjoyed Harry Potter as a child too. As a child, I wouldn't know why "Cho Chang" or "Kingsley Shacklebolt" are weirdly racist names. I wouldn't understand why saying racial slavery is okay and the slaves "like it". I didn't know what a justice system was, but now I do and I can say that Azkaban is a torture prison akin to Guantanamo Bay. As a child, it would go way over my head that the goblins are highly antisemitic (they are that in the book as well, greedy backstabbing bankers who are irredeemable because of their race...). As a kid, I thought "Voldemort is evil" is enough of a motivation for a bad guy. Now I should probably realize that defeating Voldemort without fixing anything in the wizard society - the slavery, the inequality, the wizard supremacy, etc - is actually a terrible ending to a story. As adults, I think we need to be able to critically look back, even at the things we liked, and not be ashamed to say - I liked this, but I was a dumb kid and this thing is actually pretty terrible. As adults, we should be able to understand, that buying merch, movie tickets, or going to HP Theme Parks directly pays JKR's bills and adds to her fortune. We could also look at other children's fantasy books and see that not only is HP not exactly original, the story of how she wrote it was not exactly accurate and everything else she wrote was also kind of bad and perpetuating very strange political stances (not to mention her transphobia, fat-phobia and general hatred towards women who are not mothers). So as adults, we should be able to say that while I did enjoy HP as a child, I will not spend another dime on it because of what it is and what its author represents. And no, separating art from the artist does not work when the artist openly considers people buying HP merch as support of her and her ideals. It also doesn't work when she uses her massive platform to bully and spread hatred towards marginalized groups. Our dollars speak louder than any tweet, a slam in the headline of a news article or general grumbling against her. WB will keep churning out HP crap until it's not profitable anymore. Her voice is as loud as it is because of the money she makes on HP. It is time we - as adults - maybe realized that she should not be getting our money in the first place. Also, we as adults should be wise enough to know, that the HP "reboot" show is just a quick way of selling new toys, new action figures, new T-shirts with redesigned house emblems, new editions of the books with new actors on the covers, newly designed wands, etc. etc. HP is first and foremost a merch store. WB is trying to make HP fans buy all their toys and trinkets again, now with new faces and fresh new look.

28:43 this isn't a Harry Potter thing. This is a British thing. The school houses are a real thing that exists in British private schools.

I'm actually kind of excited for the series. Also I honestly have no problem with JK Rowling. I'm very pro trans rights, but I'm all about people expressing their opinions whether I agree with them or not. Honestly this is the healthiest way to go about things. I won't hate someone just because I disagree with them. I also think women who are worried about trans women in women's bathrooms and sports are 100% justified. There are problems there that a lot of people are just straight up ignoring. The world would be a much better place if people would just have a conversation instead of attacking people for their opinion.

They might go the hobbit route and add more POVs that noone wants to see

I feel it in my soul people from both sides are gonna boycott this show for sooo many reasons, that we’ll never hear the end of it! It’s going to be a disaster! There’s a reason why they’ve never rebooted the Wizard of Oz or Starwars and hopefully never will, because they are already cemented in pop culture history. Like, why do it?
