Ice Slippin'
You know I love me some @omarapollo and this song is just so... beautifully haunting? And I love the idea of the contraposition of the theme and lyrics of the song and the portrait of Omar that @doronlangberg did. Talk about artists collaborating. This lyric video is beautiful.
"Ice Slippin is about reliving the thoughts I had passing through my mind the winter I came out to my family. Receiving cold judgment as opposed to the acceptance I felt I deserved,” Apollo shared in a statement. “This song is a reflection and reaction of all the emotions I had to face before and after I decided to leave the icy streets of Indiana.”
How about that inspo? I love his music. And I will most probably get his new EP as soon as it comes out. Because of course I will.
XOXO
P.S. And talking about @doronglangberg... it's a two birds one stone today here at (Lo) Iprescindible. How beautiful is his art? It's as if the impressionists got a shot of adrenaline...
@doronglamberg is awesome. If you are not following him, I strongly recommend it.
Because an image (or twenty) are worth a thousand words. And because I am forever immensely impressed that someone could make three dozen strokes of a brush convey such emotion and movement.
Interesting song, but I'm not really into erotic pastels.
ReplyDeleteThe song is really cool.
DeleteAnd he does still natures, too btw...
And are these pastels? We would have to ask Debra, but I think he works mostly with oils??
XOXO
Big says,
ReplyDeleteLove the art! The song, not so much. The lyrics, yes. it's rather a conglomeration of style isn't it, though? Maybe that's the point. Damn....the longer I listened, the more I liked it. Well, shit.... There goes money on a new CD. LOL.
XOXO
LOL
DeleteYes, his music is quite different. That's what I like about him.
That he's very easy on the eyes does help, natch.
XOXO
I, as I most always do, really listen to lyrics, so I like the message and the journey in the song. The art, too, is wonderful and vibrant,
ReplyDeleteGood stuff.
xoxo
He has become quite the lyricist.
DeleteI love when singer-songwriters do stuff like this and give us the background. More powerful, no?
Love the artwork!
XOXO

ReplyDeleteThat’s a great song from Omar. And the art is fantastic, too.
Yes!
DeleteThe official video dropped last week, too.
XOXO
Las imágenes me han dejado maravillado...tal como dices es como si uno de aquellos maravillosos impresionistas hubiera renacido en el siglo XXI. ¡Que habilidad expresar tanto con tan pocos trazos...! Me encanta...
ReplyDeleteYo he quedado... que ni te imaginas.
DeleteEsa orgía de colores (y los temas) me energizan.
Quién fuera artista, no?
XOXO
HuntleyBiGuy:
ReplyDeleteQuite a moving song. The artwork is astounding.
XOXO 👨🏼❤️💋👨🏽
I love the artwork.
DeleteOne or two of the pieces bring back quite vivid memories...
XOXO
I love so much the artists you put on your blog. I follow all of them on IG! 👏👏👏👏
ReplyDeleteYay!
DeleteThat's the idea. I think they're all worth a follow.
XOXO
