That lecture is for all of you lost ninjas.
It's pretty amazing to see how humanity has developed over time, and the scale of empires and shit over time. I can't even imagine how that isn't interesting TBH.
because they shape and frame how shit goes down today?
History is probably the best damn course. You get to learn about what happened in the past, how nations tried their hardest to prevent it, and made the same damn mistakes. You also get to see how much dumb shit (like religion) plays such a big part in how history was made or whatever
History is dope
History is dope
Pretty much. Most of my middle / high school history classes consisted of memorizing notes verbatim and regurgitating them on tests.

truth shit gives you knowledge about the world around it's our story on earth throughout the course of time.
again, a lot of that depends on the teacher. if he/she is monotone or just bad at teaching, it's way more difficult to become interested and remember what they're teaching.
the best history teachers relate what happened back then to what's happening now while not sounding like a robot.

Folks say they hate on history but will talk an artists discography and the development of that artist and the culture relative to modern times like no problem...
Just cause it's not the course you're sleeping through at school doesn't mean it's not history.

Lots of subjects are interesting on their own just not in a school setting. History is hit or miss because if you're stuck with a prof focused solely on read and regurgitate style exams you're going to hate the course.
It sounds obvious but it really does come down to the prof.
Although I'd be inclined to argue it's more the climate of education these days than the profs fault half the time. By that I mean on the emphasis on teaching to the exam to get the grade to get that good GPA. Not on actually learning.

all you boring history lovers. i dont give a shit about the the development of humanity, im just tryin to up my yaper
the only seriously valuable thing i learned in college was being able to get shit down, and being able to BS without it seeming like im BSing. and doing presentations help, speaking in front of people.

probably the most useful class i took in college. pretty fun too but i was in a class that was like 50% athletes and those are always more laid back experiences.
You literally sound more boring.
Intellectual stimulation > barely scraping by with BSing
May sound corny, but it's the only way to go. That's why you go with something you enjoy.

Communication courses are super fascinating and useful, but often taught as slacker courses so it's a mixed bag.
I was able to pick up a lot that helped in interviews for jobs etc, but that wasn't really my teacher doing that more the text book they used.

Haha, This. I almost double Majored in Creative writing, but that would cut into my work hours so I couldn't.

it's funny that song encapsulated what i'd want from an entire album from him
some Trap Lord esque beats
some beats reminiscent of the switch up half way through
some slopped beats like the ending
and a juicy j feature lol

haha spoke too soon.
we on that same wavelength again. I like the beat switchup, but I think he needs to break out of the flow and switch up more.

Asap had some cool well written guest verses and lyrically this song is back to his basic fare which isn't bad but I think it's such a weak look to throw shots at brands that you name dropped because they didn't give you props lol he sounds like a complete birch. Dope beat tho and I like that the song felt really well produced. It made me miss rocky
Song is perfect for Rocky, does exactly what he does best. Is he ever going to give you dope lyrics? Nope. Is he ever gonna give you dope song ideas? Nah.
We listen to A$AP Rocky to hear a guy talk that suspect swaggeur over multilayered beats with some hypnotic flow. The beat is great. I love the tension that's isnt realized in the beat until that interlude. I love the percussion, it's sparse yet sharp, reminding me of another beat i love- Beez in the Trap. The interlude... I dunno. It's cool, not sure if i'm feeling the filter they threw on rocky's vocals but it's fine otherwise. Perfect chill head nodder with a dash of menace. Hope his next effort follows up on the promise here.

Honestly I respect Rocky for refusing to give props to brands that treat him like shit. At least he's not begging those racist gatekeepers for a seat underneath the table like Kanye.
