The Big A

Fucking Iggy Azalea!

Wed, 15 May 2013 11:45:00 +0100

So I’m happily reminiscing on some older track by one of my favourite artists, Robyn when I remember the song ‘Backseat’ by Staygold which she featured on alongside Spank Rock and Damien Adore.

Annoyingly I come across the precise type of comment I hate seeing:

“I only know this song because of Iggy Azalea. lol It’s great though.”

My heart skipped a beat. Surely not… But of course, the internet never lies. It’s true. The lovely Australian rapper has rapped over a beat that samples this piece of electropop goodness and like most of her music, it isn’t at all to my liking. Why Iggy, why?

I love fun.’s original and I’m glad Wale does to, enough to bless it with a verse like the Wale of old. Dopeness.

There’s a guy that lives in my area. As far back as I can remember he’s had whatever the portable music device of the time is. He is always audibly singing and dancing too. I used to think he was mad. I now know he just feels the music.

roseaposey:

“Judgments”

I took this last year, but in retrospect, I think it’s my strongest piece from high school.

Working on this project really made me examine my own opinions, preconceptions and prejudices about “slutty” women and women who choose to cover all of their skin alike. I used to assume that all women who wore Hijabs were being oppressed, slut-shame, and look down on and judge any woman who didn’t express her sexuality in a way that I found appropriate.

I’d like to think I’m more open now.
