Someone grabbing their junk while spewing obscenities over a sampled beat hardly qualifies as "music", friend.

JESUS.

I finally watched it, and I thought it lived up to the hype. Very impressive performances all around. It seems that a lot of people in here don't appreciate how much skill it takes to write and perform a production with this much rapping in it.

I didn't realize you were the gatekeeper for what is and isn't music based on a, apparently, extremely small sample size (if that is what you really think rap music is about).

Tell me, friend, can you tell me a little about your experience with rap? Like, what songs or what groups have influenced your opinion on this music.

If you're over age 50 and someone said Hamilton, do you think of Milk Shakes or Rap Music?

Well damn. This guy has just solved why a genre has been around for 30+ years.

While I'll admit there is plenty of bad rap i can say that for any genre of music. True rappers are wordsmiths and there are a ton of different techniques and intricacies.

Before Covid they would have made $30-$40 million on opening weekend. Then the DVD money. Then to Disney+.

Was your people in the know surprised they went ahead and released to Disney+ instead of riding out Covid?

I had rumors about it for a while but from my understanding, the Disney+ deal didn't happen until after Bob Iger returned to his CEO post (after "retiring" for about a month).

I gotta hand it to Iger, man. He rarely makes mistakes and even when he makes mistakes (e.g., KK and Star Wars), Disney still earns a boatload.

The parks shutting down because of COVID has to be killing them. Their losses must be astronomical?

I enjoyed it very much, but was shocked by how much Miranda was overshadowed by every other person in the production.

This was in early May. I can't imagine how bad it got after that.

I saw the pre-Broadway run of Spamalot in Chicago. Tim Curry played King Arthur, and I went in thinking there couldn't be a better choice to stand in for the late great Graham Chapman. But his performance was flat as a board; pretty much everybody else blew him off the stage. Especially David Hyde Pierce, who played Robin.

We get it you don't like the blacks. Just call it what it is.

He said that? |Marx|

I saw it for the first time. Liked it a lot. Lin-Manuel Miranda's Drunk History on Hamilton is also absolutely worth a watch.
