Quote from: Peggey Hill;1423140A lot of people listened to them back in junior high, it's not a big deal.

yeah, even i used to be a fan of them when i about 10 or so

i don't know much about rap, either; pretty much the only contemporary rap artists that i listen to use samples from other bands/genres that i like

examples:
a tribe called quest
[u2]9z11Dqw7mK0[/u2]
edan
[u2]9cpShqcqptY[/u2]
cannibal ox
[u2]eEyUv-wo-0c[/u2]

not shown here is mf doom, since i don't really have one of his main albums yet

ok, Flounderman's and the last two Topcatyo posted were pretty good.

I apologize for saying all rap is bad and about drugs and hoes, I only said that because whenever my sister drives the car she blasts the stuff (the ones about guns, sex, a desire for material objects like money) and it hurts my ears very badly.

Well, you can be forgiven, I find that a lot of people I know in real life have shit taste in rap.

It's okay, I didn't know good rap existed for years and just assumed it was all MTV style audio diarrhea.

in my opinion, the worst thing that happened has been regeton, If you don't know what genre is or never heard that kind, I envy you

My dumb blonde 23 year old sister (who only listens to the top 40 stations) does the same damn thing, especially when Lil Wayne's "Lick me like a lollipop or whatever the hell the title of this shitty song is" or something similar comes on.  Except she also trys to dance while she looks at me and grins at me while mouthing the lyrics, knowing that she's annoying me.  Also, whenever I'm the driving, she'll bitch and moan, and continue to do so if I don't change it to her favorite top 40 pop station because she has this logic that "if the music ISN'T on the top 40 or MTV, the music automatically sucks and the artists who make that music are complete nobodies."

Poprap and teenage girls.

do you judge rock music by what they play on the radio

butyeah tribe called quest is neat, so is mf doom (beatwise at least, i cant stand his voice. special herbs and spices is great)

Faggot metal that gets played on every 'HARD ROCK' radio station ever and the faggots that think it's badass.

Faggot songs that get into any guitar hero/ddr ripoff which makes people think said bands are fucking amazing though they've never heard any other song by them. Yes, I'm talking to you Muse and Dargonforce.

muse is metal?

but yeah their singer is like today's version of jon anderson

I don't think I said Muse was metal. Think of the space between the statement as an invisible line showing different thoughts.

i misread, thank you

but yeah, but yeah

Quote from: ChimeClock;1422388maltese did you actually listen to the early beatles albums
or are you just dismissing them as pop pap? (if you do this, you are way more feeble-minded than i thought you would be)

of course I listened to the early stuff

Quote from: Hudson;1422442The Beatles aren't famous because of their marketability, they're famous because they're music was and is still amazing and groundbreaking in many aspects.

the beatles only became good when they were already famous, which is also the time they started using LSD, anyway, the entire coolness of the beatles was stolen from Frank Zappa, which I deduced from an interview with John Lennon, where he said he stole the style from Frank Zappa.

Quote from: giant_man_elsavier;1422354um buddy im pretty sure marketability in music happened before the beatles, elvis didnt invent sex appeal and i dont even know what youre trying to say about kiss because you already said it about the beatles.

and honestly im pretty sure most of the music you listen to is run by these "capitalist forces"

there wasn't even an electric guitar until the 1930s, they only became mass marketed in the mid-1940s, and only became popular in the 1950s

the same is with the bass guitar only a decade later

there was also no public image of the musicians, save for live performances, no notoriety, and finally, No TV

the Beatles and Elvis were actually trailblazers


I don't just look at this stuff, I study this shit, I can pinpoint the exact date when music started becoming shit.

haha I was literally thinking "dragonforce" while I read that paragraph. God those guys suck. Its like, "gee fellas, that sure is a nice bandname. How'd you come up with it? Hmm?go on runescape and decided that the username of the next level 3 to walk by would be your new band name? What was your name before that? Xxxnaruto_fan12xxX?"

Also, of course the music I listen to is run by capitalist forces, we live in a capitalism, it's unavoidable as long as the musician is going for the goal of money, instead of trying to make art

the fault in the music industry is a lack of artists, and a hideously-bloated excessive amount of businessmen who are trying to make a buck.

a good example of capitalism's dirty hand pulling the strings behind a band is green day. No one goes from Good Riddance to American Idiot because they feel like it

wow

ok um im not even going to try

I revolutionized this bizness like the way it was meant to be done, cause everyday i'm hustleing

Quote from: Frank The Bunny;1423452a good example of capitalism's dirty hand pulling the strings behind a band is green day. No one goes from Good Riddance to American Idiot because they feel like it

green day was always the result of marketable forces, it's the only reason they were popular in the first place, it's the only reason there are popular musicians, no musician is popular because of talent, they're only popular because they can be bought and sold on the free market
