So iconic to hear about the styling process! The styling / research that went into this shirt was top notch and I'm glad we got to see the process behind it
This was SO cool and MAJOR PROPS to the hardworking gems behind the camera. What cool jobs and what thoughtful individuals. Thank you for sharing your process. It was a complete and total iconic success. Love, Love, Love.
love seeing the process behind this omg!!!! yall slayed absolutely, like its incredible!! what a deliberate, thoughtful and SUCCESSFUL reinterpretation!!!
These gurls are so cliche unlike Nirvana who wer jus way cooler louder influencers of pop culture towards racism, homophobia, sexism, corporate structures at the time of their cover, This photographer seems unoriginal grasping for false equivalencies to project something more than he is, lotta ppl on the socials coulda done somethin better than this w/ the right gear/team of ppl and so many more females in music closer to the rebelliousness of Nirvana than these ladies, this almost seems like satire but yes RS is not even just status quo mainstream anymore, lost on their identity more than ever it seems
The word Genius does come to mind.They look the part I love the sentiment and the back story.What they are doing for Queer music is groundbreaking.What let’s them down they can’t freaking sing 🙉🙉
note to the photographer, queer doesn't define them, they are people of diverse background, their sexuality should hot be a consideration when selecting an artist for the cover.
boygenuis is nowhere near the relevance of Nirvana or impact. It’s absolutely nothing against them, they are a good band but this is Nirvana we’re talking about…..
Sexuality as a sales gimmick...again. No different than dressing women up in bikinis and draping them across sports cars...just trying to find a marketing edge by touting another angle on sex...please let your sexual orientation not be what is highlighted - leave it out...deal with the music. Seems we have gone from 'sex, drugs and ROCK AND ROLL' to 'SEX, drugs and...wasn't there something else?' somewhere in the degeneration of MTV(what...'95ish?) into money laundering videos featuring near nudity and lame music. Try focusing on music and allowing organic rise of features people want to associate with your product instead of following the forced pattern of marketing sexuality?(guess that does not serve the marketing industry so...yeah) One feature of being progressive is losing out on the advantages of what came before because you have moved forward. Love Juliens music.
@@mysticsmb re-read...The suits don't matter. I'm not commenting on fashion. Believing sexuality is not for sale here is disengenuine - otherwise the idea of sexual identity would not have been mentioned...just allowed to be one of the background influences. Accepting the way of the past - using anything and everything to 'have' - is what needs to be fought against...otherwise past patterns re-occur. The value of these musicians is not in their sexuality but it is sold that way. BTW, Julien's grasp of song structure and emotional honesty are at the top of what is currently presented in the industry.
What we need is Representation not Boy Genius, Why in 2023 can only 3 queer white girls do this cover with 3 white people working for Rolling Stone ? With this, this Social awareness feels more like peacocking for clout in the year 1983 not 2023, How come not anyone non-white with this, I guess hard in 2023 for RS unless it’s “Urban” how sad, Cis and not forward. Even someone like the Linda Lindas would have been so cool for this. Luv the idea wishing it felt authentic
I don’t really know why you said “cis” how many of those people do you know for sure identify as the gender most commonly associated with the sex they were assigned at birth. At least one member of boygenius publicly said they don’t identify as a woman.
