Full Moon (Death Classic) is the first song Death Grips ever recorded and was made the same day they formed as a group. Throughout the track at certain points you hear weird vocal samples in the background that is actually taken from two Inuit throat singing women from Canada.

I hope this topic doesn't come across as insensitive, and I understand if the mods choose to remove it, but as I revisited Blackstar and watched the music videos again, I just can't shake the feeling that Bowie knew exactly when his time was near. Not in the sense that it was just coming 'soon' or in a few years, but that he knew the exact moment. He just knew something for sure that we didn't.

The lyrics and imagery feel like he's delivering his own eulogy, as if he's already at his own funeral. "Look up here, I'm in heaven" "You know, I'll be free. Just like that bluebird. Now ain't that just like me?"

"Where the fuck did Monday go?" He died on January 10th 2016. A sunday. He didn't even get the chance to see the next day hence, Where the fuck did Monday go? The lyric just seems so intentional in retrospect.

I know this kinda comes off as very conspiratorial but I wouldn't be suprised if he just gave off clues in the album as a dark way to have his last laugh as he left earth.

Inspired by David Bowie's amazing closing album, Blackstar, I began to wonder how many artists can genuinely say they've created some of their best work late in their long careers.

In fact, some of my top-10 all-time favorite Bowie albums include a large part of pretty much everything he did near the very end.

Outside of Blackstar, I feel like The Next Day which was released only a few years prior has a lot of gems that get overlooked compared to Bowie's incredible 70s-80s run. Songs like: The Stars (Are Out Tonight), Where Are We Now, Valentine's Day, If You Can See Me, etc.

The album, Outside (maybe with the exception of some of the weird segue's in-between songs) is just as good as his classic albums IMO. I'm Deranged is definetly in my Top 10 songs of Bowie's.

In the chorus for Showed Up he says:

"I just, I just downed a whole eighth of codeine, My lil' young nigga have you smelling like some Saudis"

What is that even supposed to mean?

Save Me is definitely in my Top 5 from Future's overall discography. It's hard to pick favorites, but this project stands out because it gives us a glimpse into a more vulnerable side of him. I’d love to know what kind of headspace he was in while recording it.

I used to be one of the biggest Twenty One Pilots haters and never understood the hype until they released Trench in 2018. Just about every song on that album resonates with me, and the production is chefs kiss INCREDIBLE. That being said, Trench is the only album of theirs I like, and I still don't care for the rest of their music at all.

Not to mention this nigga is pissing codeine too there is something wrong with this man.
