she's not responsible for stuff elon did with his businesses.

She is responsible for gross fat-shaming tho

jeez I had to go to google to figure out wtf you guys are reacting to
grimes needs to get better at comebacks if that was her texting
― mh, Monday, 21 January 2019 21:31 (five years ago) link
yeah i just googled that as well. not a great look for grimes but also they're private messaging and they're super pissed at each other.
― Trϵϵship, Monday, 21 January 2019 23:44 (five years ago) link
then she apologizes.
azealia apparently is taunting grimes saying her ex boyfriend wasn't attracted to her bc she is too skinny and then saying elon wants to get with her instead. bad behavior imo.
― Trϵϵship, Monday, 21 January 2019 23:46 (five years ago) link
the thing is, there are so few good things in american mainstream culture now, but i really love grimes and i don't want that taken away from me
― Trϵϵship, Monday, 21 January 2019 23:51 (five years ago) link
i know she is canadian and more precisely from a separate black magick cybernetic dimension, but the point stands

grimes losing her cool and saying dumb things via private text to a bigoted lunatic troll is nbd to me.
― omar little, Monday, 21 January 2019 23:59 (five years ago) link
yeah, same. she should have never been involved with musk or banks in the first place but c'est la vie
― Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 22 January 2019 00:00 (five years ago) link
also looks like Banks “body-shames” her first, fwiw. (2 wrongs don’t make a right, etc.)

umm, duh
― Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 22 January 2019 00:19 (five years ago) link
banks is a complete loose cannon
the whole conversation was banks taunting grimes bc musk dumped her
― Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 22 January 2019 00:20 (five years ago) link
(yeah I’m agreeing w/you)
― i stan corrected (morrisp), Tuesday, 22 January 2019 00:24 (five years ago) link
gotcha.
yeah it's super odd that banks would publish these texts as if they reflected well on her. unusual person.
― Trϵϵship, Tuesday, 22 January 2019 00:26 (five years ago) link
It’s specially funny considering this tweet months before:
grateful y'all r complimenting me 🖤🖤^_^ but i wanna suggest we decide here and now that grimes-verse has no room 4 the glorification of thinness and the suggestion that being fat (or any body type) isn't as cool/beautiful etc. thoughtsz?i distrust skinny as a metaphor for good— ༺GRIMES༻ (@Grimezsz) February 1, 2018
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 22 January 2019 00:59 (five years ago) link
i think that's her real attitude. she apologizes to banks in the midst of the text exchange, while banks is still attacking her for being too skinny.

what's important is that treesh has rationalized this to the point where he can still like grimes

Truth is she took the Azealia Banks bait when she should’ve known better.
Claire doesn’t give me a mean-spirited vibe in the way Banks or Musk do... hope she’s surrounded by less toxic people nowadays.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 22 January 2019 01:12 (five years ago) link
Tbh I find her reaction pretty tame compared to the things Banks was writing to her.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Tuesday, 22 January 2019 01:13 (five years ago) link
I don't care what artists say in private correspondence. or at all. just gimme the tunes, play the show. I don't need artists vetted on a morality test. is this a controversial opinion???? I truly don't give a shit

musk, banks, grimes all seem like thoroughly awful ppl
why do you care w/r/t the music?
― flappy bird, Tuesday, 22 January 2019 05:07 (five years ago) link
In this case, the awfulness specifically means that the music is not being completed and/or released. I mean, I would still mind Grimes acting like a fuckwit even if there was something to show for it, but so far all we have is a year of flakey paparazzi bullshit and one song that's pretty dumb.

I've encountered some form of this comment a lot on ILX, so I'm sure this has been covered ad nauseum on here (there are probably a dozen threads about this topic), but I still don't get how people can keep the person and the music separate in their brains. For me, if I've already bonded with the music, I can still enjoy it for the most part (I still like hearing Runaway even after Kanye went all MAGA, and I still love Siamese Dream after Billy went on inforwars), but I really can't get into anything new I hear from those artists, and I'm a lot less inclined to make the effort. Sometimes this is done consciously ("fuck that guy"), but just as often, the brain is creating associations and biases without any higher-order direction.
I dearly love Visions, and really enjoyed Art Angels too, so I'm biased to give her new material a concerted effort. But reading stuff like that text exchange does make it more of an uphill battle. In this case, material that seemed to be beamed down from some ethereal higher plane now seems like it was just dreamed up by a catty high-school kid.

idk elon musk is (or in relevance here, was) infinitely clownable but I'm not out here making sure my was assembled in a union plant, making sure my lithium batteries are responsibly sourced, etc. although I'd put demands on him that in actual business he tries to aim for those things
and I have no idea from those leaked texts if there's actual animosity or that is how azealia banks texts her *friends*
what is the actual impeachably shitty thing that claire boucher has done that we're cancelling her for
