I think I'll put Mezzanine on this evening
Gonna learn more about them tonight for sure.
And Ed Sheeran couldnt even stand up to some venue owners.
Based.
Why does the media always frame it as "pro-Palestine" instead of "anti-Israel" or "anti-genocide"? Why do they want to keep Israel's name out of the media about Palestinian genocide?
I'm more perplexed for the "singer" appellative: Del Naja is a genius producer and singing is like the 5% of what he does on the tracks 🤣
