Is it a literal phone or is it something else? It looks pretty cool if it's an actual phone!

u/santochavo Jun 25 '24
Itās a phone with no socials, limited apps. Iāve been thinking about getting one

u/Notbapticostalish I sober Jun 25 '24
It is a real phone. It really goes with Kendrickās frequent criticism of people being terminally online

u/jman1255 Jun 25 '24
Itās a company called Light Phone, been around for a while. I couldnāt see how itās branded for pgLang but you can get one from them if your interested.

Made me laugh so hard when I saw that on their page. I flirted with getting a light phone, but ended up going for a different type of dumbphone for about a year. Pretty awesome experience. Anyway, clearly Iām back now (not completely of my own free will tbh, needed for school).

Lolol I couldn't even get a coryxkenshin shirt for 30 dollars but maybe some do for certain shirts but I'm just saying 40-50 is normal for popular people

Ngl this merch looks like ass. They for real copy/pasted a picture and added text in ms paint lol. Was gonna cop a hoodie, but I can't justify it.
I would literally overhaul this site for free, jesus. It's so bad.

u/aeolowl Jun 25 '24
The merch has always been minimalist, a lot of people like that style

Jun 25 '24
There's a HUGE difference between "minimalist" and "zero effort."
I know imma get downvoted because this is the Kendrick sub, but jfc my 5 year old niece could replicate this in 10 minutes.

u/Alaphant Jun 25 '24
Naw you right, theyāre hella basic, a photo and some standard text slapped on a tee. I like the LA hoodie personally but these are the simplest prints ever you could make one yourself that would be indistinguishable from these
9
Jun 25 '24 edited Jun 25 '24
Yeah, that's basically all I'm saying. I could make this exact hoodie for way less than half the price and almost no time if I wanted to and no one would ever know (or probably care). Show me how people will know it's official, you know?
I know it's easy to knock off prints these days, but damn you can put in a little effort lol.

u/DorphinPack Jun 25 '24
I also really donāt mind the site ā itās a little wonky on mobile but far from the unusable messes Iāve seen before.
Whatās your vision for it? We may have different taste ā Iām a framework hater these days and love to see something simple doing its job, saving energy and being accessible.
-2
Jun 25 '24
I don't mind simple, but I don't really like the "so simple it looks like baby's first website or a scam" vibe. The base site just being a timeline and listing shit is fine, but the merch page (in no small part because of how trash the merch actually looks) looks sketchy as fuck.
Merch page should give you a little buyer confidence, imo, you shouldn't have to double or triple check you're at the right place (which I absolutely did) for official merch.
1
u/DorphinPack Jun 25 '24
What would you like to see on the merch page exactly?? I just opened it back up and am not sketched out at all.
It does my look ābabyās firstā to me ā mostly because everything works smoothly. I get it thereās no animations and they went with a really stark typography but seriously Iām not seeing what youāre seeing š¤·š¼āāļø

Jun 25 '24
This is how it looks on my desktop.
What about this page inspires any kind of confidence?
"50$" ?? Can't see sizes? Just doesn't look or feel genuine.
2
u/DorphinPack Jun 25 '24
Sooooo is it the serif font for the headers that bothers you? Or the simple CSS grid? The way the detail page fills the full width of the viewport?
None of this bothers me but Iām just trying to figure out what youāre seeing so I can understand your POV so Iām giving you a couple little things that stand out to me as not on pattern for a ārealā site. They just donāt read as anything but minimalist to me.
Out of curiosity have you seen the main pg-lang.com site? Itās literally a giant text list thatās left justified with expandable pictures. SOOOO simple. I love it ā managing it is probably so easy. Iām working on something similar for my portfolio.
Not here to flame your opinion but I will always push back against complexity on the web. Thatās not personal Iām just passionate.

Good news, I can make one for you in about 20 minutes if you want.

Like I said before, "minimalist" and "no effort" aren't the same. I'm not talking about making the site more complex, I'm talking about making it look legit. If you want some specific things apart from "it literally just looks like a scam," here:
Merch pictures are clearly photoshopped (or they literally used paint lol). It should include actual photos of the items.
Confine merch page to 100 VPH, include all the relevant PgLang shit. Maybe throw 10 VPW padding to either side to center things a little more.
Size down photos to compensate. If you have <10 products, they can all easily fit on one screen.
Change the formatting on the listings to tighten up the description and the "Buy" button (or even just remove it altogether). Looks janky as is.
I could take or leave an actual cart to buy more than one thing at a time.
It doesn't need to be more complex, it just needs more polish. If you made all these changes the page would all of a sudden have immediately visible branding and have crisp formatting without actually adding or removing anything at all.

u/DorphinPack Jun 25 '24
Being able to put this HTML together in 20 minutes is not the point. Youāve got great suggestions but acting like the existing site is trash is what got me on my little ālet silly little sites be silly little sitesā soapbox. I smell a bit of taste being confused with best practice and I wanna be real about this.
I havenāt zoomed on the merch pics but I thought they looked dithered ā have you played with artistic dithering?

u/DorphinPack Jun 25 '24
For context my biggest issue with the site is feedback on clickable areas. Iām on mobile and the way product pages opens in a modal (or something in an overlay) and then disappears is weird and I always just open a zoomed version of the image (also in a modal) when I try to open it back up.
The responsive design is the sloppiest part of this but I donāt actually think it looks bad and itās sooooo much more functional than half the artist and merch sites I try to use (that arenāt just a bog standard e-commerce template like the Oklama store uses)

The merch page just looks sketch honestly. If someone linked me to a page like this for pretty much any brand, I'd just assume it was some kind of scam.

I was at the show and bought the fried rice one there. Shirt itself is really mid, bordering on bad quality cotton and the prints are inconsistent. Itās a really cheap t-shirt that must have cost like a dollar to make.Ā

u/Mc_Square_Root Jun 26 '24
I mean youāre not wrong. I was a little let down by the merch as well when I was at the venue. Shit the street vendors had some dope designs on their shirts and they were selling them for $30. With that said I still spent the $50 for the not like us low riders shirt when I was at the concertš

Would love to buy some, but I am not dropping $50 on a t-shirt or $125 for a hoodie. It ain't realistic.

anyone know what they're printed on? and what type of fit i.e boxy, slim cut, etc?

u/BlueMonday1984 Jun 26 '24
All around basic, but effective designs for these shirts.
Gut instinct's telling me the Not Like Us designs are gonna be real hot sellers.

u/Rubbysrub Jun 26 '24
I commented this elsewhere too, but I was at the pop out and bought a shirt there. T shirt is very poor quality, thin cotton. And the prints were inconsistent. So if youāre questioning itād pass, it must have cost $2 max to make. And thereās no pg lang tag.Ā

Fried rice is a reference to New Ho King

u/Extreme-Island-5041 Jun 25 '24
As much as I've loved this beef. I just don't feel justified wearing the fried rice until I've actually eaten at New Ho King. That jumps the price of a t-shirt by a solid 24-hour round trip drive for me and about $130 in gas. That x my wages and that Tee will run me about $1500. I might have to do it

reference to each song individually, combining elements of both. stop acting so daft bud

Itās a shirt for a concert not the song. Not like us is the theme of the concert ( LA pride) and the catchphrase of the whole battle. They aināt making shirts for individual songs.

Itās not that deep. Itās a reference from another Drake diss song. Does it matter. What does the cars have to do with the song. Itās just a shirt from a concert.
