    Peggy is so inspiring to me as a black man. Being so unapologetically and abrasively himself and making music that exemplifies that. Nobody is doing it like him and I respect him a ton. Hope he continues to grow and get the recognition he deserves.

    Peggy is honest to God my biggest inspiration. I first heard him through his COLORS performance and have been hooked ever since. The way his beats can be dark violent and then transform into shining beauty while he raps about what he wants unafraid is amazing to me and I can't wait for him to blow-up like he deserves.

    another cool thing about jpeg is he has a good understanding of the internet and music on the internet today, one example being having songs like JPEGMAFIA TYPE BEAT, making his song the first that comes up when people look for people copying him, or another is the song 1488 on veteran, which he named after the white supremacist hate symbol but the song is him talking shit to them and threatening them, so if someone searches for songs with those numbers in them they'll find him attacking them

      I get what you’re saying, I fell like I have both.
      I can think about the messages on All My Heros and feel cerebral as i vibe to the instrumentals in EP! As well.
      But then I throw on ALLCAPS or baby I’m bleeding and the hype is tangible even when I’m alone.
      I don’t go to concerts, though, crowds aren’t really my thing, so I can’t even imagine what a crowd at a JPEG show is like. I interpreted Volksgeist’s message as saying that in person the visceral feelings can manifest in the crowd in a way that Is difficult to achieve by yourself, and without those intense feelings taking over your thoughts, you naturally reflect on his messages more which can be more cerebral.
      Just wanted to share some of my thoughts, cause I definitely agree with both of y’all.

    if anyone wants someone to recommend an album from his discography, I feel that listening to LP! gives a more diverse perspective and insight to his own music. from there you may listen to other experimental albums based on sociopolitical ideas (Veteran or AMHAC, pick your poison)

    Great video, the one thing that was missing was how much of his production style and inspiration comes from Throbbing Gristle. While it’s tempting to compare him to Death Grips his industrial style really comes from throbbing gristle. The harsh noise, the disturbing samples, as well as just all of the unorthodox production choices are all very much from Throbbing Gristle. His ethos of experimentation really comes from more gritty sampling of the likes of throbbing gristle, then something like death grips or yeezus which is more refined minimalistic industrial. I think that what makes him special is he takes from the core and very first industrial band rather then kind of cookie cutter formula of what we expect from industrial. In a lot of his interviews in the Veteran era he mentioned how TG was his biggest influence, but now these days as his style has gotten a bit more poppy I think it’s more on Ye. Still very cool video

    I recently saw Peggy in Michigan, seeing him perform and interact w fans was so tight. He seemed so happy to be making fans happy. I'm glad this man got to elevate himself to where he is. He deserves it. A true inspiration.

  • @toolbar12423
    @toolbar12423 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I very much so appreciate Peggy's approach to music as a whole. I do think he falls under the same trap of a reactionary that supports uprisings that inevitably does more harm to the same people they claim to want to help and support and give a voice to. I understand the turmoil of a darker skinned individual in America at the moment and while i'm not black I get it. The system in America inevitably helps those on top as they just have more resources. That being said I think Peggy's turn from something like Black Ben Carson to a more general target was the best move. I don't agree with the extreme shit Peggy says and wants to have happen but it's very understandable to be jaded with the world and your country and wanting to find an outlet for the inconceivable anger you garnered throughout.

    3:22 that is actually “Ballad Of A Poor Man”, track 1 from the album.
    “violent fighting to come again” is just a short instrumental used as an interlude, track 4 on the album

    im so glad he is the type of artist to be himself and not try to cater to a certain crowd. i love his music, i dont even listen for the issues all the time even though i appreciate it because its so empowering. the beats are insane. i turn up to him on a regular.

    I don’t think he actually cared about his country. That’s not why he fought. His experience goes much deeper. Poverty, military, abuse, violence and he’s black. Gives you a very different perspective from an average American.
    Coming back to that point about the military he fought for himself. Because he didn’t have anything else to do. And that is who the military is searching for. He said it himself I think.

  • @trotman000
    @trotman000 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Been listening to him actively since Black Ben Carson, but some of his earlier work as Devon Hendryx is also incredible. Peggy is going to go down as the modern Doom in the sense he’s probably your favourite rapper’s favourite rapper.
