What do “WHIM WHAMMIE” by plutonotdabratt, “Da Problem Solva” by thirteendegrees and “JUST DO IT” by paxslim have in common? All 3 songs are built around unexpected samples — “Wham Bam” by OJ Da Juiceman, “Dirty Cash (Money Talks)” by PAWSA and Adventures of Stevie V, and “Le Beirut” by Fairuz, respectively.⁠ ⁠ With our feeds increasingly dictating culture's ebbs and flows, it's easy to feel like most of what we consume isn't built to last beyond that initial hit of dopamine. And while the tide of crap is indeed high, there are some exciting movements and moments in music, movies, and TV for us to hold on to. ⁠ ⁠ At the link in bio, we've compiled some trends and stand-out events we heard in our headphones and watched on our screens this year that we hope inspire more great stuff in the months and years to come, from Charli_xcx to The Rehearsal and Sinners and beyond.⁠ ⁠ #Sinners #Charlixcx #TheRehearsal
