Matty Healy Spits Some Doomblow

About cringe Hip Hop Music (Can white rich kids from Cheshire never speak about hip hop ever again. I feel dirty)

Nov 22, 2024

Side note: This was a very challenging article to write due to the many different issues it deals with and the hip hop section was considerably challenging because I’m always very careful when writing on a sanction of the world that I’m not a part of directly. There are probably a few mistakes grammatically here and there and it’s not perfect. When speaking about Doom Blow it’s tough to explain exactly why I’m choosing to not take the high road, as some might call it, and instead just straight up telling these men they are losers. Because when it comes to gender the high road does not work with men. Men of this calibre need to be told straight up that we don’t like what they are doing and they need to be told with blatant hate in case they think I’m coming onto them or something. By calling them gay, they can be assured that I am not.

Doomblow: Pseudo-Intellectual Jargon Spoken Prevalently But Not Exclusively Among Privileged Men in Their 30s & 40s (yes i am aware the title is a great example of said jargon lol)

For context, this is the DoomBlow Podcast comment as said by Matty Healy and full episode available on Sex Cult Podcast YouTube Channel:

What the hell is Doom Blow?

The term DOOM BLOW — /ˈduːm bloʊ/, refers to a subset of pseudo-intellectuals, mostly men in their 30s and notably 40s, who, having faced minimal adversity, project an inflated sense of intellectualism grounded in shock value, basic and deeply unoriginal ideas, and conclusions about… well, everything! This is often mixed with suspiciously uninformed, yet over-confidently delivered, pop culture references.

Doom Blow refers to the incessant dribble that can come from this type of person. For example: “Dude, you just talked so much Doom Blow on that date. No wonder you didn’t get laid.”

Doomblow, mirrors Plato’s Allegory of the Cave, where prisoners perceive shadows as reality due to their limited perspective (Plato, 380 BCE). Similarly, Doom Blow rhetoric involves individuals expressing opinions based on a narrow understanding, often regurgitating ideas without critical analysis or evidence. This results in assertions that, while delivered with confidence, may lack originality and fail to contribute meaningfully to discourse.

Characteristics of Doom Blow

• Overconfidence in Unsubstantiated Opinions: Individuals exhibit a high level of certainty in their views without sufficient backing.

• Lack of Original Thought: Reliance on existing ideas or clichés without offering new insights.

• Echo Chambers: Validation from like-minded individuals reinforces their perspectives, potentially amplifying unexamined beliefs (Sunstein, 2001).

Why choose to Doom Blow, When You Can Easily, Not?

I assume Doom Blow comes from a deeply ingrained need to portray power to those unlucky enough to listen to this garbage. Yapping about basic “white boy problems” and feelings of disempowerment, ironically making little sense for white men in their 30s and 40s—for the fact that their group of people hold the most power undeservingly, by default of any other group in the world. This power grows stronger into their 50s, tapering off around their late 60s. However, that gives them a good 30 years of unearned influence from 30 to 60 years old. How they feel disempowered is a question I cannot answer—and I assume they couldn’t either.

These characteristics result in Doom Blow individuals sounding extremely average—so much so that they sometimes enter a version of reality once known as “normcore.” Normcore is a sanctification of normalcy so suburban and bland that Doom Blowers, kind of like Matty Healy possess. Their normalcy can confuse others, tricking people into thinking their suburban normcore persona is this authentic charming “down to earth” like character trait that is trustworthy. However, this group of Doom Blow quite often come from very wealthy backgrounds not at all down to earth with the general population.

This is the only thing that affords them the privilege of public opinion in the first place. Yes, I’m saying they buy it.

Among their many unearned privileges—money, nonchalant attitudes, and carefree lives (all due to wealth)—their ability to portray eccentricity or “crazy artist,” becomes yet another advantage that they have and poor people do not. This ability that they have to be able to say or do whatever they want with no consequences, can be admittedly seen as seductive accidentally. This can lead their Doom Blow rhetoric, to be confused with some kind of charm, or worse, meaning.

The Doom Blow Podcast is Not Just About Hating men. What’s The Bigger Meaning?

Doom Blow the podcast, however, exists to bring these individuals back to reality, a “heaven-like” atmosphere where the sun is going down and it is suddenly becoming dark upon these idiots. This delusion they hold that what they are saying is interesting and not insulting, is very unhealthy. I aim to help them out, by drawing people’s attention to this Doom Blow style twice cooked “knowledge” they vomit at us with such brut confidence.

This article will mainly be focussing on one particular comment Healy said during the YouTube Doomscroll Podcast (where the term Doom Blow originated from) interview, that deeply offended the genre of hip hop. As a person who lives and breathes music and has had an important and intense relationship with it, especially hip hop solidly for the last 12 years, me. I’m here to fill in the many blanks left in the wake of this ridiculous Healy interview, that should very much be CANCELLED, like Jordan Peterson at a drag queen bingo night at a bar in Springhill, in Brisbane on a Tuesday night. Really, should have just said no.

There are People Who Will Listen To Doom Blow Rhetoric And Take It Seriously. This Is A Serious Matter If They Are.

On the contrary, it leaves people like me wondering if anyone seduced by this rhetoric has left their television on mute. How can anyone tolerate the trope of a Doom Blow narrative without feeling the deep embarrassment of a “how embarrassment” moment from 90’s teen magazine Girlfriend?

Through critical analysis and academic discourse, we aim to understand this phenomenon and create in it’s place alternate meaningful pathways, toward mutual respect between the sexes once and for all. Let’s explore the idea that these kinds of men are the reason for holding this positive move away from gender war over time.

So, in a bid to not delay the progress toward ending gender conflict over time, which Is my want, this is a necessary unpaid job I am willing to volunteer to do.

Are We Being Too Harsh On Matty Healy and 30 Something Year Old Men? No.

Matty Healy, on this podcast serves as the perfect prototype to use as an example of Doom Blow. He asserts his opinions within academic frameworks, mostly within the ‘gender studies” and Sociology soft sciences areas of academia. They are delivered with an overrepresentation of substantial contradiction and lack of critical thought. Holding onto what little diversity these types have while spitting this Doom Blow at us.

He takes anything that represents discrimination that has happened in his life, to validate that he has a right to talk on the subject of artistic oppression and discrimination, which I’m sure happened very little within his privileged life, and he actually knows very little about.

Leave it up to the oppressed or at least people who have ACTUALLY felt oppression to talk on this subject 30 something white guy from rich London suburb. However, he does this to seem somewhat deserving of these public platforms like The Doomscroll Podcast, in which they commentate about oppressive cultures like consumerism and gender and attempt conceptualising them into “art,” or at least “their description of it,” not my own.

Please Leave Statistics Out Of This, 30 Something Year Old Men, If You Lack The Education To Properly Interpret Them, & Males Undermine Females The Way I Do On Doom Blow, CONSTANTLY So….Don’t Feel Bad For The Men I Target On My Podcast. Feel Sorry For The Women Who Have To Sleep With Them Instead

On another point, when referring to the term, Doom Blow, it will always come along with these blatantly made-up or at least, grossly misinterpreted statistics on issues. These issues always leaving these man feeling some kind of loss of their “masculinity.” (Personally, I don’t think this type knows what masculinity is anyway. So they can’t lose something they never actually had in the first place).

This is not a real issue. If women. started going around complaining there was some kind of invisible problem that we are having involving some vague idea that we are losing our femineity, as an excuse for causing oppression to men or continuing male oppression. Then women quickly turn this into an over-dramatic and statistically manipulated fatal female issue within our society, via the act of suicide. By wrongly interpreting the statistics to make them sound like women want to kill themselves more than men, by saying female suicide rates are twice as high as males now because if this made up issue, no one would give this kind of talk from a female the time of day.

However, when looking at the issue properly, it is to be known that women want to kill themselves just as much as men, they are just less likely to go through with it. So this leaves us at there being no difference In suicidal tendencies between the sexes. Life is hard for everyone, including females, but no shit

Coming from females this would be undermined by a man in seconds and it would not get a loud public platform because of this, if it got one at all.

Also, we would be told we are just delusional and/or toxic feminist, who believe in this made up, “boogie man,” patriarchy bullshit. Then we would be hailed as man-hating feminist lesbians or something like that, maybe even belittled for having the guts to call out female oppression in the modern era, only to be mocked about it by men over and over.

Both Sexes Are Guilty of Doom Blow, Hell, So Am I

Doom Blow shit talk that exists among both females and males within specific age groups and cultures, bare roots in gender difference aversion, that are correlating with the rise of this other group of men called the Incel movement. This all resulting in a reality based potential, and significantly negative future impact on younger generations. Because, this is leading to permanent damage on our societal structures, that has already started to rear it’s ugly head through the silencing on the continuing female problems in society like illegal abortion taking away pro choice, accused rapists becoming presidents and female health.

EXPLORING MATTY HEALY’S LOVE OF THE THREE 6 MAFIA – A DOOMBLOW ultra deep dive into one sentence Matty Healy said during the filming of The Doomscroll Podcast on YouTube about Contemporary Hip Hop

Three 6 Mafia made the most influential music of the last 20 years, hands down - Matty Healy

As an example, consider musician Matty Healy, who recently claimed that Three 6 Mafia were the most influential music group of the last 20 years. While musical tastes vary, such statements often lack depth or evidence, instead representing uncritical regurgitations of pop culture tropes. Healy’s omission of groundbreaking figures like Kanye West, Future, and The Migos underscores this phenomenon.

I need to begin with saying that Three 6 Mafia first started in 1991, so if Matty Healy could count, 20 years ago was 2004 (Album of the Year, 2008).

This means his statement is null and void right there, being over 20 years ago.

Influential Hip Hop Over The Last 20 Years

In contemporary trap hip hop discourse, the intersection of privilege and opinion often gives rise to phenomena where confidently delivered statements like this lack depth or substantiation. As stated, the word Doom Blow has been coined specifically in consequence of having watched this idiotic Matty Healy interview. Healy perfectly represents for the term Doom Blow, in his opinions of hip hop and influence over the last 20 years. I’ll now explore concept of Doom Blow, in reference to Matty Healy of course and then fill in the blanks of Matty Healy’s flippant opinion on the genre and hip hop’s influence over the last 20 years. The whole statement that he said was a blank, it should have been censored out or just not aired at all.

Commentary on Three 6 Mafia as a case study, to analyse how such perspectives work in the mind of these 30-something-year-old corona virus-like disease cultures.

Taylor Swift’s “Tattooed Golden Retriever” – Matty Healy

On track The Tortured Poet’s Department about Matty Healy, Taylor starts by stating, “who uses typewriters anyway?” Doom Blowers, that’s who.

Dr Matt Healy is known for his work with the somewhat globally successful, yet easily forgettable indie rock band The 1975. He is mostly famous for once winning the heart of and being the muse of the biggest pop star in the world (Yes, Taylor Swift, she fell for this Doom Blow blow face loser, but she is a person who spends very little time around lots of different types of people. For this, we can allow an understanding of her mis-judgement).

Swift, referencing Matty Healy in her latest album one million times, mostly insulting like in track, ”The smallest man who ever lived,” (well, doesn’t take a genius to work out what this is about). This track, featuring a Matty Healy inspired titled of The Tortured Poets Department (I sense a hint of sarcasm within this title). A DOUBLE album!!!

Swift chose “The Smallest Man..” to become the centrepiece of her record-breaking seminal Eras Tour, which starts epically two-thirds of the way through the concert. Debuting very close to Healy’s home in England, while the tour was happening in Europe.

After having tried starting a relationship with Healy for something like 10 years, I gather from lyrics and gossip about the couple, he was very non-committal and even ghosted her leaving without a trace one day, and zero closure making the break up that more impactful and dramatic. (A planned out act by Healy I’m sure of it. This is so Taylor would write about him not believing one human being can hate women that much, but these Doom Blow losers give incels a good run for their money. This allowing him to stay in the limelight without being with her and marrying a Vogue model instead. Vermon. These idiots, especially Healy, will take fame anyway they can, and they will undermine women at any chance that comes their way. He achieved both by doing this. Congratulations Healy. Even if in conclusion, there are lyrics out their now via Taylor’s latest double album release like,

“(you are) like a tattooed Golden Retriever” - TTPD TTPD Taylor Swift

and,

“(their relationship) was unnecessary, should of let it stayed buried.” - LOML TTPD Taylor Swift

What is wrong with this idiot Matty Healy?

The Tortured Poets Department, works it way through the couple’s long and dysfunctional highs and mostly low moments together. A break up that is gone through by Taylor, with a fine tooth comb, dissecting every feeling, thought and often unspoken emotion that came with her heart wrenching acceptance that Healy was trash this whole time. Taylor Swift, seems to have needed to go into a deep dive in the name of vulnerability, honest music writing and especially letting go of any shame she may have collected after sleeping with the guy.

The album basically showcases her rapid attraction to Healy, an extremely short and unpleasant romance on many accounts, emphasising a continuing resentment and distaste she now has for the “small man” himself, Mr Fuck Tard.

The Migos

In any case, back to the main story of the 1975 frontman recently declaring hip hop collective Three 6 Mafia, who in my opinion, are the poor man’s and much more manufactured version of The Migos/YRN trio, as “influential”.

The Migos admittedly came after Three 6 Mafia, however, they were influencers of the last 20 years in hip hop, which is what is up for question according to Matty Healy’s statement. The two groups share a tendency to become a parody of themselves, on purpose, as a way of making fun of how white people view black America, in a more “light hearted yet incorporating obvious serious undertones” kind of way.

The Migos do this well, by making fun of themselves as viewed by a white audience. This was also prevalent in Mumble Rap movements. Three 6 Mafia I can’t help but think were serious, and thought the music they were making and raps, were good (??). Raps that include lyrics like,

Despite what you heard and what you saw, when you look at me BEEP you see hardcore……If you think I’m crazy (that’s right), if you think I’m lazy (you are DAMN right).

Whoa, they used the word “damn” at the end. And yes lazy is what I think of this track and Matty Healy’s reference of this artist, over many credible ones the last 20 years have brought to my/our lives in hip hop.

Freddie Gibbs

Freddie Gibbs, a prominent modern figure in the hip hop music world today. Gibb’s versatility, passion and vulnerability displayed through his extremely well-crafted hip-hop beats and melodies released to date, echoing a similarity to seminal hip hop figure, the late 2pac (R.I.P). Gibb’s, sums up the frustration of the mumble rap movement perfectly with lyrics like,

“….fuck this rap shit I’m just here for the cheque, I must confess.” - Triple Threat, on Freddie by Freddie Gibbs

This statement explains what mumble rap represented and why the lack of effort was put into the mumble rap movement. It was in protest and a message and warning to the public, that of they have stopped caring about the true meaning of what music represents, then why would musicians or specifically hip hop artists, put any effort into making it for them anymore?

Music in it’s most pure form, exists as this beautiful harmonisation with the patterns of the universe and created some kind of portal between universal fields, some notable mathematicians and modern philosophers have hypothesised.

If people have lost sight of this depth of what music should really be encapsulating and just wanting another generic k-pop dance track with hot Asians singing it. Then why the fuck should Freddie Gibbs put any effort into making seminal music anymore? Why would he care as the artist? Just shut up and give him the mother fucking cheque instead then, aiiight?

Gibbs personally, brought back some much-needed “jolts” to my life a few years ago with the album Freddie, literally making me so happy that hip hop was back in some west coast Death Row referencing dream utopian-like way, that gave me one more reason to live that year, next to breathing.

Jolt or Jolts - A jolt is not merely a sudden movement or shock; it is an existential wake-up call. It is the universe grabbing you by the shoulders and shaking you, a visceral reminder that you are alive in this chaotic, indifferent world. A jolt interrupts the mundane, thrusting you into an unexpected moment of awareness or crisis. It is the lightning strike in the dark forest, the crack of thunder that forces your soul to tremble. – Definition inspired by Werner Herzog: Director of Grizzly Man, among many other seminal films and documentaries.

Gibbs and The Migos, both represent aspects of both modern and old hip hop respectfully, authentically, and musically and are perfectly balanced within the past and future of hip hop, represented very well by the abundance of music they have created in the last 20 years. They comment humorously with a high emotional intelligence present, on the way white people have, up until then, viewed the modern Trap hip hop “autotune” sound. These people who didn’t take to this sound straight away (mostly white music fans), were obviously unaware of Trap’s verily traumatic and brutal ghetto roots. These trap sounds almost certainly bathed in murder, gang rape, addiction, poverty, and the popular career choice by many 12 year old boys within these communities, however, usually not a choice at all, the glamorous crack dealing pathway.

The ruthless business of selling crack cocaine in these ghettos from very young ages, reveals itself fast as not being a joke at all. Traumatic ghetto cliches, simply being the memories of most of these kinds of hip hop artist’s childhoods.

Three 6 Mafia as a top influencer, over many much more prominent hip hop influencers in the trap hip hop genre over the last 20 years not listed by Healy, when coming up aganst trap artists like Future or the Migos, are wrong and for this way over confident for me to ever take him seriously ever again.

Kanye West

What this silly idiot also forgot, was a little hip hop artist, who’s unique and ground breaking live and music video performances started to re-define what hip hop actually was anymore. Creating with this, super interesting genre debates especially among the black communities and media figures.

I am of course referring to the artist who has been my ongoing and “ride or die,” Mr Kanye West. Known as simply Ye now, he undoubtedly influenced much public discourse of what hip hop as a genre is as the most influential of all music genres today. He did this by testing it and stretching it to the furthest of reaches of the boundaries of the genre that he possibly could. Leaving in it’s aftermath massive controversy and a new break in pop culture resulting in the birth of many new conceptual ideas that weren’t possible.

However, since Ye made this bold move, mostly heard on album Yeezus, now where possible and were being openly discussed thanks to Ye. THIS IS INFLUENCE.

Hip hop performance had never been so intense before Ye, and Ye’s music may be classified as hip hop, but was that simply because he is a black man that raps on an album? Can that be classed as anything else? And is it ok that we class it as something else? These questions had never been asked before Ye came onto the hip hop scene.

Kanye’s constant testing of the absurdity of the industry in which he belongs, and his unwavering need to question it in his art over and over no matter the detriment to his career.

The cause comes first for Kanye West, always has and always will. Nothing and no one in the entertainment business in America was going to make Ye compromise his integrity. Ye stood a musician come fashion designer, resembling an attitude in his lyrics not seen since the days of the Sex Pistols yelling “No Future,” at small audiences in the 1970’s. Authentic punk attitude was back again, influencing the music, culture, stereotypes, prejudice, and popular culture over the last 20 YEARS.

Future

Matty Healy, seems to forget about all of this when scuffling through his hip hop and popular culture knowledge that day of this stupid interview. Dancing around the elephant in the room. Forgetting to mention, and this is important when referring to the start of modern hip hop or Trap, another little influential artist called Future. Future, who has been charging at full speed onto the trap scene since as early as 2003, featuring first notably on Lupe Fiasco tracks. Future is the hardest working man in hip hop, him and a certain class of Trap hip hop artists spend every minute they not touring or sleeping in the studio, churning out record after record, Future, one year releasing nine full length albums which were all full of beautiful modern hip hop trap music, including Beast Mode, Purple Reign and Hendrix.

Three 6 Mafia, on the other hand, released one album between 2003 and 2005 while trying to make some film that never saw the light of day.

Future, is always making a constant stream of hip hop trap music, spending every second in the studio he has free continuously since his first appearance on the scene in 2003. Future, also never compromised his integrity and signature autotune sound on account of white people being allergic to the truth, about the recording of music usually hidden by most artists they probably would have be happily listening to. They were blissfully unaware that autotune was probably used.

Future, uses autotune as a badge of honour, representing where he had come from and where his integrity will always stand proud. Deeply planted into the trap hip hop genre, his auto-tune sound, no matter how many people disliked him for it over the harder years trap had to live through being very hated by white hip hop fans, eventually saw a breakthrough only a couple years later. (Around 6 or 7 years ago).

Drake

The breakthrough, undeniably thanks to Drake’s support for the genre and his adoption of this trademark trap sound. Drake and his producer Noah James Shebib, also known as 40 (the mastermind behind alot of Drake’s signature albums and tracks) integrated trap within their smooth Ableton Pro style beats, that white people were accustomed too, slowly sowing the seed within the global music listening populations. Quickly after Drake jumping straight into making a full length trap album with Future, including on it every aspect of trap that the genre is known for today and respected for, which finally captured the white fans appreciation for this sanction of modern hip hop finally. But only gently enough, as if they were these fearful little babies wrapped in cotton wool, of course (Smith, 2020).

Annoying as white music fans can be sometimes, this was a smart move by Drake, and required a patience and care that artists like Future and The Migos were NEVER going to be willing to provide.

Conclusion

While subjective musical tastes vary, can you now understand why Healy’s Three 6 Mafia statement may have had a few holes, that I have now happily tried to fill in and if anyone reading this knows of any other influential music that dictated the future of music, heard within the last 20 years, please comment and let Matty Healy know. He is in need of ample education on the subject.

The rise of Doomblow rhetoric reflects broader societal trends of privilege and unexamined opinion masquerading as intellectual discourse. By identifying and critiquing these patterns, we can foster more meaningful dialogue and challenge the pseudo-intellectualism that threatens to dominate public platforms.

That is all.

Love Verity.
