If you'll indulge me

[thepenmonster1]

Would you read a comic that tries to capture the look, era, tone and general vibe of this music video?

Gut reaction.

[candiedcotton]

The era and environment I grew up in? Yes.

[Katzalcoatl]

If you capture it well I would be interested.

[thepenmonster]

Hm. Seems I'm logged in to my first account on desktop and my current account on my phone.

Wild.

Anyway, that's two people born last century.

Rap was definitely never my music of choice (even Limp Bizkit with their nu metal vibes), neither was I ever in the US, but yeah, it's a time period I can relate to and maybe a general vibe I would be interested to see in the comic

[river121693]

I grew up in this era of music, but there's this weird masculine energy, for lack of better word, that I don't care to come back to lol. Maybe it's all the screaming about mostly control and sex, and dark grungy filters, and my personal history.

[candiedcotton]

This is true, but then I like to remember these guys.

[river121693]

oh ya if you also add their vibes to the comic I'd be interested.

[LostKelp]

Honestly? No.
If there was an interesting story or cool characters then maybe - i could imagine that a corny ghost hunting or alien abduction story would be good with this, maybe a romcom, or something involving time travel. But I don't like this aesthetic enough for a comic to instantly be appealing.

Was debating about whether or not I should say my piece, buuuuuuuuuuuut

Ehhhhhhh for me personally I never really took Limp Bizkit seriously.... or... couldn't exactly stand them. A little too............ahem............. white (and this is coming from someone who listens to Western and Classic Rock). :T

I... honestly don't know how else to put it, I'm sorry if I offend anyone but... yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.... the best bands that do music like this are from the West Coast (humor is done better... although... will be upfront and say it could be bias from me since a lot of these singers are influenced by hispanics). By the way, are Limp Bizkit from the South?

OH THEY'RE FROM JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA. THAT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE. South Rap never worked for me.

Anyway, I'm just one guy. It COULD work but... I thought I should at least tell you my thoughts. I'll also tell you to figure out a way to make it marketable for the youth nowadays. I'm doing something on funk and I had to go through hoops to make that work.

[thepenmonster]

Was debating about whether or not I should say my piece

Well, I did ask...

Anyway, the idea isn't Limp Bizkit exactly. Just the dumb parts of 90s pop culture. Which is pretty much all of it TBH.

I'll probably just sit on the idea until 90s nostalgia has its moment.

[powerplantanimations]

You don't exactly need to wait for a moment to make an idea work. You can launch the moment. Also, aren't we already living in 90's nostalgia? I dunno. I'd just use that as a base while making it marketable.

[thepenmonster]

Also, aren't we already living in 90's nostalgia?

I thought we're still doing the 80s with Kate Bush and alla that

[powerplantanimations]

I thought we're in the early 2000's now.

[MaxFF]

You can do nostalgia for every decade that has living adults that fondly remember the decade. Its not like one single thing is successful at a time.

[thepenmonster]

At this rate we'll be doing early 2019 next week.

"Hey, anybody remember Lil Nas X and Billie Eilish?!"

[LouisWinter]

my brother and I were the black kids that hung out with only white kids and we all jammed out to Three days Grace, Shinedown, Saliva and Disturbed while playing DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 3 on the PS2.

and yah, i'll read your f#&king comic

[powerplantanimations]

I am really hoping for that.
