Billie Eilish - Ocean Eyes (Official Music Video)

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/17747844
“ocean eyes” is the debut single from then 13-year-old Billie Eilish. She posted the song on SoundCloud where it organically went viral, generating over a million plays. The song has been officially remixed four times, featured in the extended play, Ocean Eyes (The Remixes).
In this song, Billie Eilish puts herself in the position of someone she hurt deeply, trying to understand what they went through.
The track has two music videos, with the first being the original, homemade version. It features Eilish against a flowing curtain, singing soulfully to the camera, filmed in one take on her own property. She goes on to talk more about the process of making the music video on a YouTube video with FBE:
This was the day after my birthday that we shot this. I had just turned 14. They put makeup on me that I did not want, and they did my hair very fucking weird. The difference between a 13-year-old and then a 16-year

This song tells about the business of drug dealing and all the problems that are related to drugs from both the junkie’s and the dealer’s perspective. It also describes a girl who is willing to do anything for drugs.
This early Dr. Dre beat prominently samples the “Funky Worm” by Ohio Players.

Bullet in the Head is a song by American hardcore band Rage Against the Machine, released as the second single from their 1992 eponymous debut album. A fan favorite and one of the album’s heaviest tracks, “Bullet in the Head” refers to the band’s belief that the government uses media to control the population, drawing comparisons between typical residences and Alcatraz. The track was transferred intact from the band’s demo, also titled Rage Against the Machine.

Alt. link: MACKLEMORE - HIND'S HALL (AUDIO ONLY) [02:48] https://youtu.be/wmg6vbt04TY
“HIND’S HALL” was released by Macklemore through social media on 6 May 2024.
The track broadly addresses the State of Israel’s attack on Palestinians in Gaza which began in October 2023. The attack, which has caused tens of thousands of casualties, overwhelmingly civilian, has been widely characterised as genocidal, including as plausibly amounting to genocide by the ruling of the International Court of Justice in South Africa v Israel.
More narrowly, the track addresses the 2024 encampment movement which took shape around the world in protest of other states' response, or lack of response, to the Israeli attack. Macklemore, who is based in the United States, particularly criticises US institutions' coercive, brute-force, often militarised response to student protesters using their (nominally) guaranteed rights to free

50 Cent - Many Men (Wish Death) (Dirty Version)

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/17538798
“Many Men (Wish Death)” is the third single from 50 Cent’s debut studio album Get Rich or Die Tryin'. This track deals with 50’s near death experiences (infamously, 50 was shot 9 times in 2000) and feeling like there’s a price tag on his head.
In February 2003, while on Rap City Tha Bassment, 50 Cent would say “Many Men” is his favorite song from the album:
And he also said it in the MTV All Eyes On 50 Cent special:
About 20 years later, 50 Cent would contradict himself in an interview with news outlet Marca, where he said:
Many Men was my least favorite at that point because, musically we was in the boom-bap phase, we was in that hard-hitting intensity, the energy on the records, and it’s the slowest song on Get Rich Or Die Tryin’. And it’s now the tempo that the artists are rapping to. So the fast tempo, hard-hitting beats, that was that era, that time period. And the whole album had it.

“Who Shot Ya?” is Biggie’s warning to his adversaries not to mess with him and if they do, he will return the favor by killing them.
The song was originally recorded for Mary J. Blige’s 1994 album My Life but didn’t make the cut as Biggie’s version was considered too violent. Instead, Keith Murray was asked to record a different version, which is now known as the “K. Murray Interlude.”
On November 30, 1994, 2Pac was shot and robbed at Quad Studios in New York. He accused Puff Daddy, Jimmy Henchman, and Biggie for setting up the attack. “Who Shot Ya?” fueled Pac’s suspicions as he saw it as a diss track toward him, due to its coincidental release in Feburary 1995. He later responded to the song a year later with “Hit ‘Em Up” and “Bomb First (My Second Reply).”

Looking for recommendations
I found myself listening to the same like eight or nine songs everyday, and I want to branch out more. I like artists like DOOM, Nas, Aesop Rock, Brother Ali, JID, Jarv, Homeboy Sandman, Mayhem Lauren, Little Simz and Westside Gunn. Anybody know anything good I can try?
