And it's fucked up that The Luniz won't see a dime from it being in this movie.

Something to do with the deal they had where they basically got fucked over.

Yeah label owns that song/album. Big reason why yukmouth got with rap a lot for his solo deal and stayed indie. Never topped his Luniz success but hes done really well for himself.

Found what I was looking for: @Busta Carmichael and I had this exchange about Luniz on the old site:

After analyzing the feedback from this, I see one of the main criticisms stems from how Peele decided to choose foreign-born blacks to portray the roles of the main protagonist instead of African Americans. Smh. I swear its damned if you do and damned if you don't when it comes to Us (no pun intended). Trailer looks dope af. Def. getting my coins on the first days

That...has got to be one of the DUMBEST shyt I've read. So they going wit the Samuel L Jackson logic huh?
If that's the complaints you've been seeing...then maybe Peele ain't too far off wit this. Like you said...damned if you do...damned if you don't. Muthafuccas wanna complain just to complain

But that's not really a bad thin...ok well if they go overboard wit it then yeah.
But overall...I enjoyed the way "Get Out" sparked that kind of conversation, and folks giving different perspectives.

Also one of the best things about horror cinema is that there is always a level of social commentary and political deconstruction. I don't watch this guy's movies cause I don't like him nor am I interested in them but its one of the truest things he's doing to rep the genre.

Nah man, he told us they were basically neglected kids who saw an opportunity to change their lives. They had no idea how the industry or lawyers worked.
They found out the hard way

I feel has become an undeniable truth - that is the simple fact that we are our own worst enemies.”
This what I meant by "Unless" In regards to the route he was taking , But a blanket statement over ALL blacks
I thought this movie wasnt about race

How about we...iono... actually SEE the film first before claiming how "deep" it is or go shitting on the overall message that the movie MIGHT be trying to convey.
I'm not going into this film with any expectations.. Just because Get Out had layers, deeper meaning and all that.. doesnt mean this film will do the same.

True but there was def some hints in the trailer...the white rabbits (Alice in Wonderland, the matrix), kid wearing a jaws shirt at the beach, the way the scissors look...it might not be as deep as get out, but I don't think Peele is capable of making just mindless entertainment. Doesn't seem like the way he wants to use his platform.
