As good a time as any to mention one of my favorite shows, for which I actually ended up breaking down and buying an on-sale subscription to Peacock — Peacock! — in order to watch the second season because there didn’t seem to be any other way to watch it, even through buying it outright:

As a huge Puppy fan, I am ashamed to admit that I had never seen this video before, but it sure was delightful.

As a long time fan of both industrial and hip-hop, there seems to be a lot of intersectionality there. The “industrial hip-hop” genre goes back to the early 1980s. Even that side, there was a lot of exchange happening between the two. You had industrial groups incorporating hip-hop elements like scratching, danceable beats, sampling, and rapping. At the same time you had hip-hop groups incorporating signature industrial elements like distortion, noise, guitars, and aggression.

I can still recall the first time I saw this video on Yo! MTV Raps as a kid:

It unlocked so many things in me. Confusion, discomfort, bewilderment, curiosity. None of the core elements were new to me, but seeing them combined in this way really left a lasting impression.

Don’t know anything about CMAT but during one of my recent music binges i had decided to go through a playlist of random recs on YT and the second video you posted was in there. Can’t say it’s 100% the kind of thing i’d listen to normally but i did like it and found the music video to be memorable. Good to know she’s someone with morals and not afraid to stir shit up.
