Halloween is less than three weeks away. If you still don’t have a costume idea — but you do have an extra $29,000 lying around — you could do a lot worse than going as Negan from The Walking Dead. (Like dressing up as Will Smith slapping Chris Rock. That would be a worse Halloween costume.) With the AMC zombie series ending soon, many screen-used props are up for auction, including Daryl’s motorcycle from seasons 5-8 (current bid: $11,000), Michonne’s katana ($9,600), and Rick’s jacket ($6,000). Or, for more than the price of all three combined, you can get Negan’s bat, Lucille.
“In terms of items that help define a character, few can argue the weight and impact that this simple prop had in the hands of the charismatic and ruthless leader of the Saviors,” the item description provided by Goldin reads. “Presented is the Hero version of Lucille as seen in season seven. A Hero prop is the ‘as real as it gets’ version of any item that is designed with the intent to be seen up close and personal on a big screen.” It’s not the bat that bashed Glenn and Abraham’s brains in, but it “bears the embedded round fired by Rosita in season seven, episode eight when trying to kill Negan.”
The bidding is up to $29,000 (or $34,800 w/ “Buyer’s Premium”), but there’s also a Walmart version of the bat called “Plastic Toy Barbed Wire Bat Prop,” because copyright infringement, for seven bucks. Not as impressive, though.
Latin music is louder in the world than ever before. Bad Bunny has the best-selling album this year with Un Verano Sin Ti and his summer arena tour was sold-out across the US. Success in the music industry isn’t just limited to one language as artists like J Balvin, Maluma, Karol G, and Rosalía‘s careers have blossomed while they choose to sing in Spanish only. People are connecting with the heart and sounds of the music.
The proof of Latin music’s global dominance has been in the numbers. In 2018, Latin music became the fifth most-consumed genre in the US, pulling ahead of country music and EDM. The genre remains firmly behind R&B, rock, pop, and hip-hop while making incredible revenue gains each year. For the first half of 2022, revenue for Latin music in the US rose to 6.6 percent share of the overall music market, generating $510 million dollars. When compared with this time last year, Latin music posted a 23 percent increase in revenue. Music in Spanish is now on track to generate $1 billion dollars in revenue by the end of the year.
With Hispanic Heritage Month here, Uproxx is highlighting 10 more Hispanic artists to check out not just now, but all year round. As Latin music continues to boom with Bad Bunny leading the way, these artists are going to be the ones to watch for next.
Tokischa
Tokischa is leading the way for Dominican dembow music. In the past year, the Dominican rapper has been tapped by artists like J Balvin, Rosalía, Marshmello, and most recently Madonna, for her sex-positive dembow flow. At the same time, Tokischa is pushing for the voices of women and queer people in Latin music as an openly bisexual artist who sings about whatever she wants.
Myke Towers
Since breaking out in 2019, Myke Towers has become the MVP of Latin hip-hop. The Puerto Rican rapper’s piercing flow knows no limits of genre, with him also finding success in the reggaeton music scene. With his upcoming self-titled album Michael, Towers is showing that he’s an all-around pop star with recent forays into electronic and Afrobeats-infused music.
María Becerra
In under two years, María Becerra has positioned herself as Argentina’s most-streamed female artist on Spotify. In that same time frame, the Argentine pop star has been tapped for collaborations by the likes of Camila Cabello, J Balvin, Becky G, and Prince Royce. With upcoming album, La Nena De Argentina, she’s looking to shift to burgeoning music career into the next gear.
Manuel Turizo
Manuel Turizo is emerging as Colombia’s next big pop star. The Montería native first made an impact in the reggaeton music scene with co-signs from artists like Anuel AA, Rauw Alejandro, and his compatriot Maluma. With his upcoming album 2000, Turizo is proving that his success isn’t limited to one genre with his single “La Bachata” breaking into the top 10 of Billboard‘s Global 200 chart.
Danna Paola
Since her starring role in the first three seasons of Netflix’s hit series Elite, Danna Paola has become one of Mexico’s biggest pop stars. Last year, she received her first Latin Grammy nomination for her heartbreak album K.O. Now she’s ushering in a new era in her career with the feel-good anthem “XT4S1S” while giving Latin pop an electrifying makeover.
Feid
After penning hits like J Balvin’s breakthrough single “Ginza,” Feid is finally getting his shine as an artist. This past year, the Colombian singer-songwriter received co-signs from his superstar compatriots Maluma and Karol G. Last month, Feliz Cumpleaños Ferxxo Te Pirateamos El Álbum, in which Feid flexes his sentimental reggaeton flow, became his first LP to crack the top 10 of Billboard‘s Top Latin Albums chart.
Yahritza y Su Esencia
Yahritza y Su Esencia are reinvigorating age-old regional Mexican music for a new generation of fans. Back in May, lead singer Yahritza Martínez made history as the youngest Latin artist to appear on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart at 15 years old with “Soy El Unico.” The Mexican-American group is nominated for Best New Artist at next month’s Latin Grammy Awards.
Pol Granch
Pol Granch is also nominated for Best New Artist at next month’s Latin Grammy Awards. Last year, the Spanish singer broke through as part of Marc Seguí’s “Tiroteo” remix with Rauw Alejandro and as a star in Netflix’s Elite series. With his upcoming album Amor Escupido on October 27, Granch is embracing the current pop-punk revival in his angst-driven anthems.
Villano Antillano
Villano Antillano has the fiercest flow in Puerto Rico’s rap scene. As a trans woman, she has also become an empowering queer voice in reggaeton and Latin trap music while uplifting more LGBTQ+ acts like Young Miko, Ana Macho, and Ptazeta. Earlier this year, Antillano teamed up with Argentine producer Bizarrap for their explosive “BZRP Music Sessions #51” that has over 138 million views on YouTube.
Bizarrap
Speaking of Bizarrap, the 24-year-old producer has become Argentina’s most-streamed artist on Spotify. In 2019, he launched the “BZRP Music Sessions” on YouTube where artists spit rhymes or sing over his hip-hop beats with an electronic edge. Following viral sessions with Nathy Peluso, Snow Tha Product, and Residente, Bizarrap achieved his first No. 1 on Billboard‘s Global 200 chart with the dreamy “BZRP Music Sessions #52” featuring Quevedo.
Some musicians mentioned here are Warner Music artists. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
After months of claims and taunts, it seems like Netflix is finally fulfilling its unpopular promise to incorporate advertisements into the service. Because, after all, when you’re watching a disturbing scene of Jeffrey Dahmer heinously murdering people, throwing in a quick ad break for hand soap is exactly what the people want.
Netflix has been preparing subscribers for the opportunity to pay for a cheaper plan since earlier this year. The new ad tier will launch the first week of November, so at least your Halloween watching will remain ad-free. At $6.99, this will be the cheapest subscription for Netflix, and service for existing subscribers won’t be affected, unless those existing subscribers are interested in adding an extra 5 minutes of advertisements for Wonder bread in between episodes of The Great British Baking Show.
In addition to the ads, the video quality will be reduced to 720p as opposed to its Standard-tier 1080p. Netflix also confirmed that a limited number of movies and TV shows won’t be available due to local licensing restrictions, but they are working on it. The one good thing about Netflix’s pivot to ads is that they will not be running any political or policy ads, which is NOT the case for some others. They will also limit the number of breaks during longer films in order to preserve the “cinematic experience.” That’s fair, but could you imagine how long The Irishman would be with all those ads for Domino’s pizza?
The streamer also announced that beginning in 2023, Nielsen will be measuring Netflix’s viewership and ad data in order to collect and verify just how many people are actually watching Stranger Things. And more of their shows, of course, but that’s the one they really care about.
The official launch date for ad-supported accounts will be November 3rd and will be available in The U.S., Canada, U.K., Australia, Brazil, Spain, Mexico, Korea, Japan, France, Germany, and Italy.
If you’re only going to drink one beer style in these early fall days (and nights), make it a lager. The style is so much more than simply that crushable, sweet, slightly malty macro-brew your dad and grandfather drank (although we love a good PBR or Narragansett Lager from time to time). Sure, you can find crisp, easy-drinking lagers and pilsners that quench your thirst any time of the year. But the lager umbrella also includes Vienna-style lagers, bocks, California common beers, doppelbocks, maibocks, marzens, helles lagers, dunkels, and more. Simply put, if you didn’t drink any other beer style besides lagers this fall, you’d have so many brews to try that you wouldn’t even spend a second missing the spiced pumpkin ales that seem to be everywhere this season.
The only problem with deciding to make fall a lager-filled season is picking which beers to try. To help you navigate, we asked some craft brew experts for the best lagers to drink during the fall months. From marzens to schwarzbiers to pilsners, they didn’t disappoint with their choices. Keep scrolling to see all of their selections below.
Austin Beerworks brews a beer seasonally called Black Thunder. It’s a beautifully made Schwarzbier. Toasty and roasty, but super clean which makes it a great southern drinker with notes of chocolate, coffee, nutty sweetness, and spicy, bright, floral hops.
It’s a very well-rounded, balanced, bold beer to sip no matter where you live.
Sierra Nevada Oktoberfest
Sierra Nevada
James Bruner, director of production at The Bruery in Placentia, California
While Sierra Nevada Brewing in Chico, California is known for making its iconic Pale Ale and Hazy Little Thing, they are definitely rooted in brewing tradition, and their annual Oktoberfest lager release is one of the best in the industry. From 2015-2020 Sierra would bring in a German brewing partner, pairing with the likes of Mahrs Bräu, Miltenberger, and even Weihenstephan over the years of re-establishing themselves in the traditional lager game. 2021 found them flying solo again, but they definitely learned a trick or two, making one of the most exceptionally clean, yet flavorful Oktoberfest beers in the craft beer world.
Toasted bready malts with just a hint of melanoidin character, a light herbal and floral hop underneath, with clean and crisp lager yeast and a dry finish; it brings me back to the tents in Munich, making it easy for me to crush a liter or two.
Fall in Arizona means it’s still 90-plus degrees, and that calls for a crispy boi. Crispy from The Shop Beer Co. in Tempe is brewed with rice for a lighter-than-water body, but it still sports a bright hop flavor that flashes with every refreshing sip. Drink it cold and it’ll almost seem like it’s time to put on a sweater. Almost.
Weihenstephaner’s Festbier is a rich, full-bodied hoppy golden lager that is lighter in color and specialty malt character than the average assumption of what type of brew is consumed at Munich’s Oktoberfest. Although it is indeed found in plentiful amounts during the famous celebration. Claiming to be the oldest brewery in the world, you certainly can’t argue with over a thousand years of brewing tradition. The malt provides a cracker-like flavor that is wonderfully accompanied by a kneaded bread dough aroma from the lager yeast and a floral, spicy hop bouquet from the use of European noble hop varietals. Prost.
Oxbow Luppolo Pils
Oxbow Luppolo
Matthew Steinberg, head brewer and co-founder of Exhibit ‘A’ Brewing in Framingham, Massachusetts
Oxbow Luppolo Czech Style Pils is the lager I constantly crave. It’s perfectly delicate and delivers everything I want in a dry-hopped Euro Pilsner. Unfiltered and brewed with European malt and hops, this memorable pilsner carries flavors like cereal grains, lemongrass, honey, and sweet corn. The finish is crisp, dry, and perfect any time of year. Especially in the early fall.
Victory Festbier
Victory
Morgan O’Sullivan, co-owner of FlyteCo Tower in Denver
Victory Festbier. The lower ABV makes for a good party beer with hints of honey, hops, and spice, which are all balanced perfectly. Brewed with imported two-row Vienna and Munich malts as well as German whole-flower hops, it’s known for its mix of malt sweetness, and lightly spicy hops.
Rohrbach Highland Lager
Rohrbach
Chris Spinelli, co-founder and brewer at Roc Brewing Co in Rochester, New York
ABV: 5%
Average Price: Limited Availability
Why This Beer?
Highland Lager, Rohrbach Brewing Company. This is a local favorite. It has a rich malty body with big notes of caramel, with a nice body and clean crisp finish. It is the perfect lager for a nice fall day. Brewed with a combination of Munich, Vienna, and wheat malts, it’s the type of amber lager you’ll drink all autumn long.
Red Oak Amber Lager
Red Oak
Adam Cranford, lead brewer at Left Hand Brewing in Longmont, Colorado
Red Oak Brewery’s Bavarian Amber Lager is my fall go-to. This was a year-round treat for me growing up in North Carolina but was always my beer of choice once summer turned into fall. Brewed according to the 1516 Reinheitsgebot, this beer has the rich malty caramel and bready notes of a good marzen while being a crisp and easy drinker and absolutely gorgeous to boot. Unpasteurized, unfiltered, and the perfect beer to enjoy on Saturday game days on Franklin St. in Chapel Hill (or wherever you are).
Drake is known for his lavish parties, and when it came time for his son Adonis’s fifth birthday party, he spared no expense.
The “Jimmy Cooks” rapper provided his son with a superhero-arcade-themed party complete with fun games, famous comic book heroes like Spider-Man, and a sign dubbing him “Super Adonis.” As seen in Instagram posts made by the Canadian rapper, family and friends surrounded the five-year-old as he celebrated the special occasion.
“Happy 5th to my twin,” he wrote on Instagram.
Drake’s celebrity friends like Nicki Minaj, DJ Khaled, Big Boi, Popcaan, and Chance the Rapper hopped in the comments to help wish the rapper’s son a happy birthday.
“Happy Birthday to the lil man,” Chance wrote with two birthday cake emojis.
The family affair is a nice break for the rapper, who has been gearing up to headline Lollapoloza’s upcoming 2023 festival. For the first time ever, Drake will perform in Argentina and Chile. He will also be partnering with SiriusXM for his Apollo Theater debut this November. At least 1,500 are expected to attend the intimate performance. To attend the show, fans will have to listen to his Sound 42 (Ch. 42) station on the SXM App to secure tickets for the event.
Along with his upcoming performances, this past June, the Honestly, Nevermind rapper unveiled his new radio show Table For One on the platform. Drake said in his announcement, “This show’s just about zoning out. I’m excited to bring this to you permanently. Table For One, we do it all without doing the most.”
Nearly 12 percent of the U.S. population lives in poverty. That’s more than one in ten Americans—and the percent is even higher for children.
If you’re not up on the current numbers, the federal poverty line is $12,760 for an individuals and $26,200 for a family of four. If those annual incomes sound abysmally low, it’s because they are. And incredibly, the Trump administration has proposed lowering the poverty line further, which would make more poor Americans ineligible for needed assistance.
However, debates over the poverty line don’t even capture the full extent of Americans struggling to make ends meet. For many people, living above the poverty line is actually worse. These are the folks who make too much to qualify for aid programs but not enough to actually get by—a situation millions of working American families find themselves stuck in.
Amy Jo Hutchison is a single mother of two living in West Virginia, and a community organizer for West Virginia Healthy Kids and Families and Our Future West Virginia. She has also lived in poverty and been part of the working poor herself. In an impassioned speech, she spoke to the House Committee on Oversight and Reform about what poverty really looks like for working families—and even called out Congress for being completely out of touch with what it takes for a family to live on while they’re spending $40,000 a year on office furniture.
Watch Hutchison’s testimony here (transcript included below):
Ms. Hutchison Testimony on Proposed Changes to the Poverty Line Calculation
“I’m here to help you better understand poverty because poverty is my lived experience. And I’m also here to acknowledge the biased beliefs that poor people are lazy and the poverty is their fault. But how do I make you understand things like working full-time for $10 an hour is only about $19,000 a year, even though it’s well above the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour?
I want to tell you about a single mom I met who was working at a gas station. She was promoted to manager within 30 days. She had to report her new income the DHHR within 60 days. Her rent bumped from $475 to $950 a month, she lost her SNAP benefits and her family’s health insurance, so she did what poor people are forced to do all the time. She resigned her promotion and went back to working part-time, just so she and her family could survive.
Another single mom I know encouraged her kids to get jobs. For her DHHR review she had to claim their income as well. She lost her SNAP benefits and her insurance, so she weaned herself off of her blood pressure medicines because she—working full-time in a bank and part-time at a shop on the weekends—couldn’t afford to buy them. Eventually the girls quit their jobs because their part-time fast food income was literally killing their mother.
You see the thing is children aren’t going to escape poverty as long as they’re relying on a head of household who is poor. Poverty rolls off the backs of parents, right onto the shoulders of our children, despite how hard we try.
I can tell you about my own with food insecurity the nights I went to bed hungry so my kids could have seconds, and I was employed full time as a Head Start teacher. I can tell you about being above the poverty guideline, nursing my gallbladder with essential oils and prayer, chewing on cloves and eating ibuprofen like they’re Tic Tacs because I don’t have health insurance and I can’t afford a dentist. I have two jobs and a bachelor’s degree, and I struggle to make ends meet.
The federal poverty guidelines say that I’m not poor, but I cashed in a jar full of change the other night so my daughter could attend a high school band competition with her band. I can’t go grocery shopping without a calculator. I had to decide which bills not to pay to be here in this room today. Believe me, I’ve pulled myself up by the bootstraps so many damn times that I’ve ripped them off.
The current poverty guidelines are ridiculously out of touch. The poverty line for a family of three is $21,720. Where I live, because of the oil and gas boom, a 3-bedroom home runs for $1,200 a month. So if I made $22,000 a year, which could disqualify me from assistance, I would have $8000 left to raise two children and myself on. And yet the poverty guidelines wouldn’t classify me as poor.
I Googled ‘congressman salary’ the other day and according to Senate gov the salary for Senators representatives and delegates is $174,000 a year so a year of work for you is the equivalent of almost four years of work for me. I’m $24,000 above the federal poverty guidelines definition of poor. It would take nine people working full-time for a year at $10 an hour to match y’all’s salary. I also read that each senator has authorized $40,000 dollars for state office furniture and furnishings, and this amount is increased each year to reflect inflation.
That $40,000 a year for furniture is $360 more than the federal poverty guidelines for a family of seven, and yet here I am begging you on behalf of the 15 million children living in poverty in the United States—on behalf of the one in three kids under the age of five and nearly 100,000 children in my state of West Virginia living in poverty—to not change anything about these federal poverty guidelines until you can make them relevant and reflect what poverty really looks like today.
You have a $40,000 dollar furniture allotment. West Virginia has a median income of $43,000 and some change. People are working full-time and are hungry. Kids are about to be kicked off the free and reduced lunch rolls because of changes y’all want to make to SNAP, even though 62 percent of West Virginia SNAP recipients are families with children—the very same children who cannot take a part-time job because their parents will die without insurance. People are working full-time in this country for very little money.
They’re not poor enough to get help. They don’t make enough to get by. They’re working while their rationing their insulin and their skipping their meds because they can’t afford food and healthcare at the same time.
So shame on you. Shame on you, and shame on me, and shame on each and every one of us who haven’t rattled the windows of these buildings with cries of outrage at a government that thinks their office furniture is worthy of $40,000 a year and families and children aren’t.
I’m not asking you to apologize for your privilege but I’m asking you to see past it. There are 46 million Americans living in poverty doing the best they know how with what they have and we, in defense of children and families, cannot accept anything less from our very own government.”
In addition to Hutchison’s testimony, a coalition of 26 patient organizations, including the American Cancer Society Action Network, American Heart Association, and United Way, wrote a joint letter opposing the proposed lowering of the poverty line, stating:
“The current Official Poverty Measure (OPM) is based on an old formula that already does not fully capture those living in poverty and does not accurately reflect basic household expenses for families, including by underestimating child care and housing expenses. The proposed changes to the inflation calculation would reduce the annual adjustments to the poverty measure and therefore may exacerbate existing weaknesses, putting vulnerable Americans – including those with serious and chronic diseases – at great risk. Further lowering the poverty line would also give policymakers and the public less credible information about the number and characteristics of Americans living in poverty.”
Halloween is just around the corner, which means it’s costume crunch time.
As people are making their final decisions about whether to go scary, silly, cute or obscure, some are also deciding how to dress up their doggos. Who doesn’t love seeing a pup with a superhero cape or a dog in a wig and sunglasses bopping down the street?
Whether dogs truly appreciate being dressed up is up for debate. Some people might think it’s cruel to put clothes on an animal, but according to PetMD, not all dogs dislike being dressed up. For those who clearly don’t mind, it can be fun to find Halloween costumes that will make the neighbors giggle.
Some dog costumes are pretty basic, but some definitely exceed expectations. People have been sharing dog costumes on social media that are too clever and hilarious to pass up.
For instance, check out this pumpkin-carrying costume that creates an illusion of two people struggling to haul around a pumpkin.
If you really want to freak people out and you have a small dog—especially one with short legs—grab a fuzzy tarantula or big black spider costume. Watch how people get pranked with eight-legged doggos:
If your dog is bigger and beige, try transforming them into a lion with a lion’s mane costume. Super simple, but the right doggo can pull off a genuine dupe from a distance.
Also in the transforming-into-other-animals category, how about these cute little panda costumes? On a little white dog, the effect is pure perfection, especially when they’re coming straight at you.
#Dogs dressed as pandas for #Halloween. You’ll thank me. #costumes #dogsofttiktok
And for a little yeehaw fun, check out this cowboy bull rider costume. If you can get your pup to run around in circles like this one, you’ve got some serious entertainment on your hands.
If you decide to get a dog costume, make sure you check the measurements to get the right size for your furry friend.
Meghan McCain joined in the conservative attacks on John Fetterman after an NBC News report questionably highlighted his need for closed captioning while conducting an interview with Dasha Burns. Fetterman suffered a stroke just ahead of the Pennsylvania primaries, and he’s been open about his recovery while on the campaign trail. The lieutenant governor has been transparent that he still suffers from lingering auditory issues, but for the most part, he has no cognitive issues.
However, Fetterman occasionally stumbles on words. That issue was controversially addressed by NBC News which was called out for its framing of a senate candidate requiring basic accommodations for a disability. Conservatives, on the other hand, had a feeding frenzy over Fetterman’s sporadic speech issues, and McCain apparently couldn’t resist a good ol’ partisan attack.
“This is insane,” McCain wrote in a now-deleted tweet. “How can someone be a Senator without being able to speak or understand small talk?”
As noted, McCain’s tweet didn’t stay up for long. The former The View co-host started to trend on Twitter as people leaped to point out the hypocrisy of her remarks. John McCain famously suffered from brain cancer during his final year in office, and Meghan has never once questioned whether his ailment should have prevented him from being in the Senate. Instead, she treated his final days as an act of bravery.
Unfortunately, McCain didn’t extend that same courtesy to Fetterman, and she was roasted so hard that she eventually deleted her tweet. Of course, screencaps last forever, so that didn’t stop a ball that was already in motion.
You can see reactions to McCain’s attack on Fetterman below:
Meghan McCain’s father had a brain glioblastoma for over a year while serving as a US Senator. pic.twitter.com/9gLpGbP6DK
Meghan McCain had the absolute fucking nerve to tweet this before she deleted it. Lincoln had Marfan Syndrome. FDR (arguably the greatest president ever) had Polio. JFK had Addison’s disease. Her dad had brain cancer. Having auditory problems makes you unfit for office now? pic.twitter.com/MrBc6qg9lh
— Lisa Ericsson Murphy TrumpViolatedEspionageAct (@lisakrstin) October 13, 2022
I remember your dad’s first speech on the Senate floor after coming back from surgery. Sounded a lot like this, he needed to read from a teleprompter. I remember thinking, I don’t agree with most of anything he stands for but he’s a badass. He would be ashamed of you
What is insane is Meghan McCain thinks a disability disqualifies Fetterman from serving, especially since her father served and he was considered disabled because of the torture he endured. So is Meghan telling hearing and vision-impaired citizens they can’t run for Congress? pic.twitter.com/2YT0XSKTiZ
Imagine being so vile that you not only vote for a man who mocks your war hero father but then doubling down by mocking someone who also suffers from a brain condition.
Oh wait we don’t have to imagine. It’s @MeghanMcCain
Netflix has found great streaming numbers in dramatizing real-life stories. The biggest recent example of this would be Dahmer, which is already the streamer’s second-most-watched original series of all time, weeks after the Ryan Murphy show surfaced. Then there’s continuing fallout from Inventing Anna subject Anna Delvey/Sorokin, who has stayed in the headlines for several months, and Luckiest Girl Alive also portrays some inspired-by-real-life (and triggering) events as written by author Jessica Knoll. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that these projects star Evan Peters, Julia Garner, and Mila Kunis (respectively speaking), but they’re proof that real life can be more dramatic than any fictional story, and the eyeballs are there.
To that end, a sleeper series surfaced a few weeks ago with High Water, a Polish production about the 1997 Millennium Flood that buried parts of Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic and killed over 150 people as rapid flash flooding dwarfed cities and rural areas. The six-part series brings the catastrophe to life onscreen for the first time, and the show’s creator, Anna Kępińska, declared (via a Netflix press release) that the project intended to zero in on the battle between individuals and the collective. In the end, the dramatized story portrays what happens when everyday troubles are replaced by an impossible-to-predict event that pits humanity against an uncontrollable force. From Netflix’s summation of the plot:
In July 1997, scientists and local government officials face life-and-death decisions when a destructive flood wave threatens the city of Wrocław in Poland. The local authorities, led by the aspiring clerk Jakub Marczak bring in Jaśmina Tremer, a female hydrologist with a troubled past, to help save the city at any cost. At the same time, Andrzej Rębacz returns to his hometown, a village near Wrocław, unexpectedly leading the rebellious residents against the disaster.
Here’s the limited series’ very intense trailer that promises a harrowing ride.
When a massive flood hits, these scientists must race to make life-and-death decisions.
Comments made by Quavo and Takeoff during a recent interview added fuel to those rumors. Appearing in a podcast, Quavo said, “I just feel like we want to see our career as a duo because we just came from a loyal family… Sometimes, when sh*t don’t work out, it ain’t meant to be.” In another interview, this time with Rolling Stone, they did, however, leave the possibility of a reunion open, comparing Migos to Wu-Tang Clan and their duo project to similar offerings from Wu-Tang’s individual members (the album’s title is a homage to Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx).
“It made sense because Wu-Tang was a group and then them boys did a duo track,” Quavo explained. He also said, ” I feel like the group is going to always be the group Migos and then Quavo and Takeoff’s going to be Quavo and Takeoff.”
So, while they haven’t exactly stated plans to get the band back together, don’t count out Migos entirely.
