@awkwardl0ser: Hi there! I don't know your background with hip hop, so you may already be super familiar with Kanye and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, but in case you aren't, here's my understanding:
MBDTF is a concept album that explores Kanye's relationship with fame. He tackles a other issues in the album, but that's the main theme. All of the Lights, specifically, paints his relationship with fame/fans as an abusive relationship where he's in the wrong. MBDTF came out in 2010, a year after the MTV awards "Ima let you finish" debacle. "All of the Lights" pretty prominently features Rhianna - a victim of domestic abuse via Chris Brown in 2009. I doubt she'd be interested in featuring in a song about actual abuse a little over a year after the court case.
If interested, you can read more about it here: https://genius.com/Kanye-west-all-of-the-lights-lyrics
and I'm sure there's better write-ups out there if you're curious.
Not trying to be a MH Elitist or anything - things might be totally different in World than in 4U - but I thought using the hammer spin was way less effective than a neutral charge attack?
I’m with most dudes I’m seeing here - this category was incredibly frustrating to listen to. “Best Setting” would have been a much more interesting category.
The “Star Wars univserse” vs Luke Skywaker plot line comparison by @DocWattson was the kind of distinction I was hoping for them to make, but I’m over an hour in and I don’t think they’re gonna get there.
So maybe they fix it in future episodes, but I'm playing catch-up here and just wanted to add my voice to the crowd saying "hey Dan, fuck off with replacing characters who already have a personality attached with your own."
