May 10, 2019 Been doing a bit of writing for hotnewhiphop as of late. shouts out to all my section80 fam who helped me shitpost about rap until i started making money from shitposting about rap Why Are Lil Wayne & Blink-182 Going On Tour Together? https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/why-are-lil-wayne-and-blink-182-going-on-tour-together-news.79752.html
May 10, 2019 I uh.. listened to this s--- for the first time just to read this article. and uh. aye man my heads hurting.
May 10, 2019 another quality piece @Big Cuntry Are you writing for anywhere else atm? Rebirth was trash but was still an insanely brave experiment. True, he's definitely earned his right to experiment and if anyone can pull it off its him. I just don't know if I like the idea it being with f---in Blink 182. But thats just me. Anyways, guess we'll find out.
May 10, 2019 Nope not yet, when I started off making seriously attempting pitches a few months ago for my lil pump article I emailed a number of places—most no response, a couple got back to me and read it and passed, but hnhh accepted it and pretty much immediately had other stuff they wanted me to write + accepted some other things I pitched to them so it's been a nice way to supplement my income. I wanted to do music journo full time for awhile but at this point I don't think I want to unless i somehow became an editor for a site, I just don't have the drive/ideas to come up with articles often enough that I'd wanna do it full time. Cuz I think I'm better at helping strengthen other people's ideas than coming up with them on my own. I'm open to writing for other places of course! But I can't speak highly enough about hnhh, the editors are great, they pay on time, and the fact that they pitch me articles is dope as h--- because most of the time I can take something and run with it if they give me the bare bones crux of an idea even if it was just like "why are lil wayne and blink 182 going on tour" lol
May 10, 2019 Oh and here's the pump article I wrote awhile back for those who are interested: Is Lil Pump Misunderstood Satire? https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/is-lil-pump-misunderstood-satire-news.74964.html
May 11, 2019 Good article man. I actually may go to this just based on nostalgia alone. Although I can't listen to blink 182 w/out Tom.
May 11, 2019 I've always thought I would have loved going the music journalist/reviewer route although its difficult writing about rap as a non-American lol. You should def go for the editing if thats what you wanna do. But these pieces are really cool so far, keep us posted
May 11, 2019 I shall! I have two more that should be going up next week but they're more listicle-y lol
May 13, 2019 I was on the paper in college and took some journalism classes but it wasn't my major. I double majored in english and communication which is kinda just "media studies" when it comes down to it I guess lol. Cuz I took a bunch of film/fillmmaking classes throughout those two majors too.
May 13, 2019 ur just mad I still have narsh in my life also you were an hour and a half train ride from where I was and I had plans already lol but I'm prob gonna move to New York so we'll have plenty of time to go to barracuda's
May 13, 2019 iirc u were two blocks from me, and said u were feeling very shy and insecure about leaving the apt. just my recollection! and narsh looks good from the IG you alerted me to
May 13, 2019 this isn't how you get a date to barracudas. no wonder narsh never wanted to hang out again!
