Lil Yachty Lil Yachty Teenage Emotions Album Download a Conversation with the Designer Behind Lil Yachty’S ‘Teenage Emotions’ Album Cover lil yachty lil yachty teenage emotions album download A Conversation With the Designer Behind Lil Yachty’s ‘Teenage Emotions’ Album Cover. Earlier today (April 20), Lil Yachty unveiled the cover art for his debut album, Teenage Emotions, featuring people from all walks of life sitting in what appears to be a movie theater. In front of him, a girl afflicted with vitiligo sits laughing, while behind him a gay couple make out. The cover's already being lauded online for its inclusive slant, and on Instagram Live, Lil Boat discussed the inspiration behind it: "If you have vitiligo or if you're gay or whatever it is, embrace yourself. Love yourself. Be happy, positive." Legendary photographer Kenneth Cappello shot the cover and graphic designer Mihailo Andic, who handled Yachty's logo and did the covers for both Lil Boat and Summer Songs 2, designed it. We spoke to Andic, 23, about how he started working with Yachty, how the cover came together and which of Yachty's friends are featured on the cover. Below are excerpts from our conversation. XXL : How'd you first start working with Yachty? Mihailo Andic: That was actually right before the Lil Boat mixtape came out. This is one of my favorite stories. It was just one day before Valentine's Day and one of my brother's friends came over to our house and was catching up with me when he said, "You should listen to this guy named Lil Yachty." And this was before he had any songs popping. "1 Night" and "Minnesota" were out but he didn't have the tape out, so I was like okay, I'll check him out. That was around the time he did the Kanye show [at MSG], and I saw him there and then I listened to a song and I came up with this idea for a cover. It was just a really simple mock up of Yachty on a boat and it was in the middle of the water background, kind of like the ocean, and I sent it over via email and later that night they hit me up. They loved the idea, and after that, the rest was history. That's how we all came together. I took a pic from his Insta, did a little Photoshop work and in less than half an hour I did a mock up and said, "Listen, I think I have a really great idea of how your visual branding and covers could look. Here's a quick idea. If you guys like it, get back to me. If not, appreciate your time." And they loved it. How did the Teenage Emotions cover come about? We actually started talking about this album sometime last year, so I think we were all in the same city for one of the tour stops back in the summer and we kind of just started talking about the upcoming album. At that time, I was initially starting to think about ideas for where we could take it visually, but we didn't really have a clear understanding of what direction we were gonna take it in for the album. We had a similar look and feel for the first two mixtapes, Lil Boat and Summer Songs 2 . We weren't exactly sure if we were gonna do that this time around, so it was a few months of thinking through the fall and the winter. We were just going through ideas, I was looking through references, sending over mood boards as to what one idea could look like or what it could look like in this kind of style. And then I think it was in January or February, we actually were all in L.A. and we kind of just sat down. We were hanging out and we started discussing what we could do for the album cover. Yachty and I were talking and kind of just bouncing around ideas, and I just asked him, "What would you want to see out of this visual for your first album? What do you think is important here and what do you think we can do that's a little more progressive and maybe a little more different than what we did previously?" He was telling me these ideas, and one of them happened to be having a group of teens surrounding him in some way. And that's where the initial idea came from. He mentioned that to me and he was telling me it'd be really important to show the diversity, the inclusion of all these different teens who could come together and form this cover. After that, we were continuing that conversation and once we had that idea, I showed him this mood board. It was actually a mood board on my Instagram saved page. [The idea for the cover] came out once we were talking, and I was like you know what, I'm probably gonna spend a few days and just go through some pictures and see what I can gather up before I see Yachty. I happened to gather this photo, and it was just a reference shot, and it had a really beautiful picture of a theater. And I thought maybe this could be one of the background ideas where we could house the actual cover, so I showed him that and immediately, that was the one that clicked. [The theater] also relates to the whole teenage aspect of the album. A lot of teenagers, that's around the time they're going on dates. The movie theater is one of those important spots where teenagers are gravitating towards, and I'm sure it's part of everyone's life. Takes them back down memory lane, so that was where we got that idea. Then two months after, we set up a shoot. Kenneth Cappello, that guy's one of the biggest legends ever, we got him to shoot the cover. We thought he would be a perfect for that. We knocked it out and after a few days, we had our final product. It's different than what we've done previously, but just to see everybody's reaction today and to see how much positive over negative there is, it just shows we took it in the right way and we were all right in what we were going for. Talk about casting the different characters on the cover. How'd you pick these people? How'd you find them? That was back to what Yachty wanted to include in the cover, and we did a bit of ideation around that before, but he had a pretty good idea of who he wanted in the cover, and he wanted this cover to stand for inclusion and all teenagers. He's pretty much the king of teens and he just wanted to show no matter who you are, you have to embrace who you are and you have to be be proud and be yourself, and I think that's what we captured with this cover. You mentioned some previous ideas you had before you settled on this one. What were they? I had two sets of ideas before this. The first set actually were in the same lane as the whole teenager, taking it back kind of vibe, and then the others were a little more in line with what Lil Boat and Summer Songs 2 looked like, a little more nautical, just expanding that universe. But to be honest with you, I don't think we were leaning toward that direction and those kind of ideas. They felt a little too mimicky of the first two covers, so we just pushed them to the side and said you know what, time to progress. Time to build on this and create something new and unique. Yachty has some friends on the cover as well. Who are they? So we have Big Brutha Chubba, he's on the right. We have Earl [The Pearl], we have Mitch, and I think we have Erron Vercetti. Any last words on the cover? For this cover, once we had this idea nailed down and we were in the process of executing it, we kind of knew this one was gonna make an impact. It was a little more about the message this time around. It wasn't as artistic or even you could say expressive, it was more a cover that had a meaning, and more so it had a message for everyone. And I'm glad that everybody sees that message. Lil Yachty – ‘Lil Boat 2’ It’s not often that you’ll see a major artist take a pause from posturing to acknowledge their own shortcomings, but then Lil Yachty isn’t any ordinary artist. The effervescent 20-year-old Atlanta rapper – who has cherry-red hair, once sampled the Super Mario 64 soundtrack, and recently learned the difference between a cello and a clarinet – owned up to feelings of disappointment shortly after the release of his May 2017 debut studio album, ‘Teenage Emotions’. That record became arguably better known for the divisive response to its awesome artwork rather than any of its tracks, resulting in a disappointing commercial performance. Yachty later took to Instagram to reflect on why his debut LP had fallen short of expectations. “I understand first-week numbers didn’t do what most people expected, but that’s only because they don’t understand me. They don’t understand us,” he wrote in the now-deleted post. “I don’t expect anybody to.

  • Aesthetic Play and Bad Intent
    Article Aesthetic Play and Bad Intent Andrew J. Kerr† Threatening words or images are assumed by American courts to be non-art. But this threshold question of art status is complicated by the evolution of rap and performance art. There is no articulable way to discern art from non-art for these non- textual media, a problem compounded in the unique context of the Internet. In civil litigation we can resort to institutionalist tests like audience reception. But mens rea matters in criminal prosecution. I favor judicial pragmatism in what I argue here is a very non-legal area of law. I. INTRODUCTION In March 2016, Compton rapper YG released the single, “FDT”, shorthand for “fuck Donald Trump,” as a critical response to the then Republican primary challenger. The track was rec- orded in about an hour,1 and eventually became a summer an- them because of its political appeal.2 VICE Media’s Noisey pub- lication celebrated it as the best track of 2016. Some of the lyrics are rote and predictable. Still, it possesses a vital energy and contains several clever lines, such as the couplet: “Reagan sold coke / Obama sold hope.”3 Any rap fan would recognize the song † Lecturer of Legal English, Georgetown University Law Center. I thank Robin West, Alexa Freeman, Sonya Bonneau, and Xiangyu Zhang for their help- ful comments, as well as the organizers and participants of the 2017 Law and Literature conference at Masaryk University for their formative feedback on this project.

  • 'And I Swear...' – Profanity in Pop Music Lyrics on the American Billboard Charts 2009-2018 and the Effect on Youtube Popularity
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 9, ISSUE 02, FEBRUARY 2020 ISSN 2277-8616 'And I Swear...' – Profanity In Pop Music Lyrics On The American Billboard Charts 2009-2018 And The Effect On Youtube Popularity Martin James Moloney, Hanifah Mutiara Sylva Abstract: The Billboard Chart tracks the sales and popularity of popular music in the United States of America. Due to the cross-cultural appeal of the music, the Billboard Chart is the de facto international chart. A concern among cultural commentators was the prevalence of swearing in songs by artists who were previously regarded as suitable content for the youth or ‗pop‘ market. The researchers studied songs on the Billboard Top 10 from 2009 to 2018 and checked each song for profanities. The study found that ‗pop‘, a sub-genre of ‗popular music‘ did contain profanities; the most profane genre, ‗Hip-hop/Rap‘ accounted for 76% of swearing over the ten-year period. A relationship between amount of profanity and YouTube popularity was moderately supported. The researchers recommended adapting a scale used by the British television regulator Ofcom to measure the gravity of swearing per song. Index Terms: Billboard charts, popularity, profanity, Soundcloud, swearing, YouTube. —————————— —————————— 1 INTRODUCTION Ipsos Mori [7] the regulator of British television said that profane language fell into two main categories: (a) general 1.1 The American Billboard Charts and ‘Hot 100’ swear words and those with clear links to body parts, sexual The Billboard Chart of popular music was first created in 1936 references, and offensive gestures; and (b) specifically to archive the details of sales of phonographic records in the discriminatory language, whether directed at older people, United States [1].

  • Kodak Black’S 2016 XXL Freshman Interview and Freestyle By: XXL Staff June 20, 2016
    Watch Kodak Black’s 2016 XXL Freshman Interview and Freestyle By: XXL Staff June 20, 2016 Once an artist claims to be better than both Biggie and Tupac, hip-hop fans take notice. Kodak Black did just that during his interview for his spot on the 2016 XXL Freshman Class cover. “I’m bigger than Tupac and Biggie,” the 19-year-old Pompano Beach, Fla. native states. Earlier this month, Kodak dropped the fittingly titled mixtape, Lil B.I.G. Pac, a collection of tracks showcasing his growth since dropping previous projects like Project Baby, Heart of the Projects and Institution. It’s obvious the “SKRT” rapper knows a thing or two about staying productive considering he’s remained consistent with new material. “People just see like the shine, they don’t see the grind,” Kodak shares. Anyone familiar with his solo efforts or his guest appearances on tracks like French Montana’s “Lockjaw” know Kodak has a unique place in the game when it comes to his presence on the mic. “I got this voice from the lord I guess,” he continues. “I could just ride the beat any type of way, switch it up on it, come back with some other shit.” Songs like “Slayed,” off Lil B.I.G. Pac, serve as an example of Kodak’s delivery. Before the tape was out for the masses to hear, the Snipergang leader decided to use those same lyrics from the track for his 2016 XXL Freshman freestyle. “Hell yeah they call me Kodak but I ain’t come to take no picture/So icy, make it blizzard, and the lean I’m sippin’ sizzurp,” he rhymes.

  • Does Emo Rap Makes You Less Emo? the Influence of Emo-Rap on Young Adults’ Emotions
    Does emo rap makes you less emo? The influence of emo-rap on young adults’ emotions. Author: Christiaan van der Weijden Student number: 10625224 Master’s thesis Graduate School of Communication Master’s programme Communication Science Supervisor: Susanne Baumgartner Date: 26-6-2019 Abstract Emo-rap is currently gaining more and more popularity, especially among emerging adults. Taking into account the lack of research about this genre, the relationship between emo-rap and emerging adults’ emotions will be studied. Contrary to popular belief, sad music can also induce happy emotions among listeners. This study will research if this also holds for emo-rap. An online experiment (N=170) was conducted, with a 2 emotional valence (happy vs. sad) x 2 music genre (rap vs. pop) factorial design. After inducing sad mood, emerging adults had to listen to one of four songs. Results show that music in general lead to more happiness among participants, when in a sad mood. In contrast to the predictions, happy music lead to more happiness than sad music. Moreover, a high preference for the heard genre made participants happier than a low genre preference, when in a sad mood. 2 Introduction Nowadays, hip-hop and rap music are gaining more and more popularity, especially among adolescents and young adults (Statista, n.d.) in the Netherlands (NPO, 2018) and the United States (Nielsen, 2018). One could argue that these genres have become pop-music, regarding the presence of numerous rap and hip-hop songs in major Spotify charts. One of the popular sub-genres is called emo-rap, with Lil Uzi Vert and the late XXXTENTACION as one of the most popular right now.

David Bowie, Paul Kantner, Glenn Frey, Leon Russell, Maurice White, Prince, Juan Gabriel, George Michael, Sharon Jones... the list goes on.

  • Neuroimaging Studies on Familiarity of Music in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
    Neuroimaging Studies on Familiarity of Music in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder by Carina Patricia De Barros Freitas A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Degree of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Carina Patricia De Barros Freitas 2020 Neuroimaging Studies on Familiarity of Music in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Carina Patricia De Barros Freitas Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2020 Abstract The field of music neuroscience allows us to use music to investigate human cognition in vivo. Examining how brain processes familiar and unfamiliar music can elucidate underlying neural mechanisms of several cognitive processes. To date, familiarity in music listening and its neural correlates in typical adults have been investigated using a variety of neuroimaging techniques, yet the results are inconsistent. In addition, these correlates and respective functional connectivity related to music familiarity in typically developing (TD) children and children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are unknown. The present work consists of two studies. The first one reviews and qualitatively synthesizes relevant literature on the neural correlates of music familiarity, in healthy adult populations, using different neuroimaging methods. Then it estimates the brain areas most active when listening to familiar and unfamiliar musical excerpts using a coordinate-based meta-analyses technique of neuroimaging data. We established that motor brain structures were consistently active during familiar music listening. The activation of these motor-related areas could reflect audio-motor synchronization to elements of the music, such as rhythm and melody, so that one can tap, dance and “covert” sing along with a known song.
