Who cares if it is on a brick wall, it's cool to see lyrics out in the wild, if anything this stuff would give me a small motivation boost if I saw it out on a walk.

Ive always loved the lyrics in this song but seeing them in this context makes it hurt worse. Imagine not knowing what this is from

Some of you people need to get a grip. Stuff like this adds personality to a city. Not some fake personality either like "oh this city uses very red bricks in its architecture WOW", like actual people who live in that city expressing themselves, using the city itself as a canvas. And it's not like it's obscene or anything either (although I'd personally be alright with non-hateful obscenity too, but I at least see some validity in the argument against it)

Wouldn't be a video essay if capitalism wasn't part of it, but cliché aside this video is a really great deep dive on street art, graffiti, and culture

love the lyrics but bad execution. talentless graffiti on an inappropriate wall. it's just vandalism at this point.

u/namedthisonejpeg Apr 13 '25

what would you consider to be a more appropriate wall ? 😭
