That’s two legendary oddballs bending petty language to their extraterrestrial needs with a creative force rarely seen. Rodman has perfected this heavily spaced and peculiarly punctuated style on Twitter in recent months with classics like this and this which I’d love to quote but whose format Wordpress straight-up refuses to not “correct”—publishing technology-breaking prose. Uzi, meanwhile, slides into Rodman’s DMs with the force of song title nomenclature ala “dis blog prod. by ur boy.”
What these two might collaborate on is a wonderful question to ponder over the holidays.
