@TheBlackdragon936 Very true, though I do think a lot of them are begining to come around. Once they hit about 19 or 20 and have experienced all kinds of music they can no longer hold onto the factory produced crap that has been coming out the past 5 years as 'the best'
Music has a direct relationship with popular culture... that being said the rules have been significantly altered over the past 2 decades... 2 Live Crew allowed musicians to make use of what people term ""curse words""
Nowadays it is commonplace to be called a bitch, a hoe, a nigga, a dueche bag, on network television during time schedules which were once reserved for after school specials.... the era of decency has decayed... as far as kids recieving wholesome programing, you can forget that..
@MisterPresidentMusic Yup, Luke and them went to court to fight censorship of art. That kind of language meant something to hip-hop and the urban anger producing it. And then it became too profitable not to be co-opted and turned into a profit making mass produced genre. Now that art has become dirty words over a sellable beat.
Additionally, perhaps talented individuals are truly too difficult to oppress under the strain of contract negotiations... I feel that the truth is not to be exposed, because the agenda of the music, television, and film industries,is dirrectly correlated with the SHADOW governments agenda the world throughout.
I seriously feel that music and televison especially have been hi-jacked by the worlds power elite, to enslave humanity by forcing ignorance into their homes 24/7...
You cannot point the finger at these self-proclaimed "musicians" we as the true representitives of the Hip Hop/rap Community (We the People) must point the finger at the producers... production teams... not BET not MTV the production company (Viacom) which pays the bills. Additionally, this is unfortunately what the people (populus/masses) like, if not their records would not really sell... sales=promotion... its believed to be manipulated by the Illuminati. This is why Rakin does not sell....
@MisterPresidentMusic Agreed. But production teams are paid by big money studios and are pretty easily replaced. The artist is the one with the status to do something about it. Good things don't sell because people find them too difficult to grasp.
@MacMan5555 Not really. Metallica is my shit, Sad but True is one of my all time favs. I like Sabbath, Papa Roach, Megadeth, and some other groups but I don't like too much metal.
LOVE:Nas,Mobb Deep,Easy MOTHAFUCKIN E,Bone Thugs,Da Luniz,Dre,Ice Cube,All of NWA,The Roots,Tribe Called Quest,KRS-ONE,Jeru The Damaja,A few of Jay Z's songs,Ice T is alright,like him in Law and Order better,Gang Starr,i could go on for days man

@shayannesmama Agreed. My friends and I were talking about the debate between Dru Hill, 112, Next, Boyz 2 Men, Jodeci, etc. There was a legit case for best group; and in every genre. Now compiling such a list would be laughable.
@daswann14 we need to have a user created top 100 hip hop songs on youtube,but most of the songs would HAVE to be pre-2000,or as i like to put it,pre-death hahaha.cash rules everything around me,cream get the money,dolla dolla bill yall
I particularly cannot STAND Lady Gaga. Like you said, her music is about nothing. She has NOTHING to say. Her shit all sounds the same, and her lyrics sound like they were written in the diary of a 16 year old girl. She's an attention whore and she tries too hard to be "different".
As for Soulja Boy...I won't even get started on that. His suckiness is completely evident. No explanation needed.
@daswann14 It's not enough.What about really doe,wrong nigga to fuck with,when will they shoot,ghetto bird was the shit too,lil ass gee,wicked,no vaseline was the shit,greed,when i get to heaven,tales from the darkside,jackin for beats,the product...well anyway Cube is,was and will always be the shit!!!
@TheStrawberryLolicon Bet yeah those other dudes suck. Wayne is also okay but I turned my back on him forever after the carter 3. Way to turn into diddy from 97 Lil Wayne. Gagas music literally makes no sense nor is it trippy in a good way. It just sucks.
@TheStrawberryLolicon Mike Jones is better than those people. His albums just suck, agree on that. Dick don't fail me now is a good and creative mike jones song.
@daswann14 Man im listening to No Vaseline right now and I might have to agree with you on that Icecube choice.And as far that california boii goes tell him to suck a florida dick.I'm out.
@rekabsullett Fuck yeah. And no vaselin is not even a top 10 cube song. Bird in the hand is my favorite. Then ghetto bird, today was a good day, us, natural born killas, how to survive in south central, bop gun, man's best friend, summer vacation dirty mack, higher, you know how we do it, I wanna kill Sam, friday, and look whos burnin. And that's excluding NWA (top 3 group ever) and WCC (Bow down is sick). Cube rocks! This list is partly for me to copy and paste later sorry if its too much=)
@daswann14 i wanna see ur negro ass writing some music u dumb piece of shit instead of playing with ur fucking face all the time rubbin those cheap ass earings u got there!
@Sabohaque Gucci sucks but he's way better. His verse on the prettygirls remix and on shine blockas with big boi are better than anything soulja boy could dream about.
@daswann14 I meant in the human sense. Like Soulja Boy is just a 12 year old who never grew up and fuck it I don't even know why I'm thinking about this
@californiaboii Because dumb people will buy any music. Didn't you see the point you fucktard. What's fake about me saying exactly how I feel. Good gravy you're a stupid piece of shit. And by you logic I can see your hopelessly dumb. Derrrrrr shess popular so she must be good err derrrr. Fucking idiot.
@californiaboii Just because an artist is on top doesn't mean that their music is quality music. You need to understand that she is a marketing gimmick, before she was this big star she actually had talent, that's what I would like to hear. But I'm not a big pop fan so I won't talk about her. As for hip hop, Soulja boi and all those other non talented bafoons are only popular because the internet is good exposure to get recognized. I'm sure this guy in the video has a good job he makes sense too
@daswann14 ice cube???aaawwww helll naaawww man you sound like my brother next thing you know you goin say you hate jay z. yeah man definitely different ears. I heard people say they dont like lady gaga because she comes off over the top to people but never because she cant sing.
@MakeMoney080910 Cube has 150 good songs. From 88-96 he was beyond great. Bird n the hand, mans best friend OMG. No ones catalog is that deep and no one but pac (1A then a big gap) touched on more social issues. NWA changed hip hop more than anyone but Herc and Flash. Jay-Z is very good and better than anyone going now. But at least 7-10 of his contemperaries were better. He's at best the 4th best NYC rapper of his era behing Biggie, Big L, and Nas. Jay is bout 15th all time in my opinion.
@MakeMoney080910 Ask Dr Dre who the best rapper of all-time is. As much as he loves Snoop and Em, and despite the fact they used to beef he says its Cube and it's not even close. And Cube is also the best writer, and lived real shit. I don't think she can sing. She sounds shower good not studio good. Mariah can fucking sing. Whitney and Aretha had pipes. Janis Joplin had a unique sound as does Lauryn Hill. Gaga sounds like a pitch controlled reproduction.
@llHyRaXll Name one. Bone Thugs has crossroads (original), crossroads (remix), for the love of money, thug love, let's ride, paper paper, and every song of the art of war album. Name one good soulja boy song.
Had you seen Lady Gaga before she became all famous, when she was just a brunette pianist from New York? She was alright. Now she annoys the shit out of me.
What the hell happened to rap since around 1995 (excepting of course Immortal Technique, greydonsquare, and a few others)?
man you are right man soulja boy sux hard man. he has no skills the only decent mainstream rappers right now are probably eminem and drake everyone else is so marketed and commercial it makes no sense. 2pac is turning in his grave right now.
With that said, there is a lot of really good new talent emerging today. It just doesn't get played on the radio which is truly a shame. I feel like if decent artists got airtime then the people who listen to the radio would be affected for the better, if only marginally. All this nonsense about swag and shit like that only serves to pollute the minds of the young. But anyway, if you haven't, you should listen to Abstract Tribe Unique (watch?v=8jk_DruY5-g)
What's worse than Soulja Boi and the music that he makes is that he's inspired the youth to create their own music which in principle is a good thing but not when your main inspiration is Soulja Boi. Examples: watch?v=XhiHZB9sRkI (Lil B), watch?v=17f848YpZXY (Byrdboy), watch?v=yM8jrvF5zYs (50 tyson)
I think that mainstream music is going to reach a point where most people won't listen to it any more.
Daswann14 please i been watching you for almost two years man soulja boy cool i understand but please dont come for gaga. You may not have given her a chance and watch some her vidoes besided the music videos they put on tv. listen to her acoustic songs. Her lyrics--they may not mean something to you but you can tell that they mean something to her and most of her songs have layers and a message not just commercial front that people only seem to notice. girl is mad talented and creative.
@MakeMoney080910 Gotta disagree. I think she's a little better than awful. And her art form is an abomination in my opinion. You can disagree, we don't all have the same ears. And I've heard at least 20 of her songs. 'This beat is sick' is good and poker face pretty good. Every other song was/is garbage. I'm sorry I just see a talentless hack. But much better than soldier boy.
@daswann14 Yes I must agree that soljia boy sucks hippo ass.Worse than that was master p.tThat guy was to hip hop what gay rapist priests are to the catholic church.master p unleashed pure uncut garbage on the world with no limit records.And all of those substandard rappers and that godawful scream UHHHH!After master p introduced garbage rap into the mainstream shit deteriorated into this plies and soljia boy shit.Brace yourself.It'll get worse.
I feel you when said people hear a song on the radio and they think it's hot. I'm a fan of yukmouth I never heard any of his songs on the radio but, I buy every last album because I am never disappointed.
I know talent when I see it, and when I see Lady Gaga I see very talented producers and marketing exectutives. You can't deny it, they've got mad skills.
@daswann14 Trick is alright. I like his flow but Face Off from PT Cruiser is a classic. Luda is fucking ridiculous, best in ATL since Outkast sort of fell off. But The Diary, My Homies, Last of a Dying Breed and The Fix are all timeless records... My top 10 all-time is Pac, Big, Pun, Face, Nas, Rakim, Bone, Meth & Red, Cassidy when he battles lol, Big L..., Top 10 right now is Wayne, Luda, Tip, Slim Thug, Juelz, Jada, Em, BG, Styles P, and Bone (listen Uni-5 the World's enemy, it's a good album)
@TheConservatveLibral The new Big Boi album is the best album to come out in 5 years. 13 good songs on there. Pun is over rated. Good call on Big L and BG. Wayne's over rated and he kinda sucks now, mixtape legend tho. Bone hasn't mattered for 10 years and their new album leaked 2 years ago. Heyday was great. Red is a way better rapper than meth; meth is just more talented overall.
@TheConservatveLibral Now take 1% of this energy that you devoted to establishing a pretty good hierarchy through the history of hip-hop and really read about the history of conservatism and liberalism in America. And the use and changing meaning of republicans and democrats. Cool with me on the music. And yes Cassidy's albums all kinda suck though his flow is sick. But his battle clips are nasty. Em is closer to being top 10 alltime than top 10 right now.
I can't stand BET anymore. Every once in a while I'll tune in to see what's new and I see soldier boy or some guy singing about some halle berry shit! They can't be serious! I miss old BET when there was midnight love and they played real slow jams.
Yeah you should look into Lady Gaga a bit, she is just a huge troll. Theres a video of her pre-Gaga and she is actually very talented. Most of it is an act.
I mean, in a recent interview for some magazine this is what she said on celibacy: "I don't know I'm kind of scared that someone will suck my talent out through my vagina." I'm paraphrasing but thats pretty much it. Hilarious lol.
If you watch/read other interviews its a lot of the same. Its mostly Bowie/Madonna been-there-done-that.
@trumasamune When GaGa was known as "Stacy" she was fuckin awesome. Very soulful voice and music... plus, she can play keyboard. Just another example of a "wholesome" young girl turned into a studio executive's wetdream..
@TheConservatveLibral Hm I don't think it's like that at all, actually! lol I really think she is behind most of the antics she comes up with, and I support them because it throws some grey into a world people seem to think should be black & white. Hackneyed or not, it's not something most people see every day.
So yeah, I'm not a fan of her music almost at all, but hell yes I am a fan of Lady Gaga. Since I don't listen to the radio/watch much tv it's kind of easy to ignore the music. =)
@trumasamune She is in no way in control of the antics, the most she may get is her opinion. Control is in the hands of the producers, directors, costume designers, choreographers, PR and Talent agents. The music is never important to them, just the message and style they are trying to pitch. When you're THAT big you have literally sold your soul. With Soulja Boy he's trying to pitch some bamma ass dance to you. He's actually OK on other people's shit but his solo act is a horrific shame.
@TheConservatveLibral Yes she certainly sold her soul. Where are you from??? Not DC I see. It's bama. Conjugated bamass =). I'm okay if you give me a nice studio and a verse to rhyme. Soulja is literally an average nigga, anyone could do his act. Most people just couldn't respect themselves.
@TheConservatveLibral I'm from PG, Lanham. How the fuck do you have these twisted historical political views if you're from round here? So confused. And fuck dallas. Arrington making Aikman retire is one of my fondest sports memories.
@daswann14 Mine too. Wish Lavar's never left... I was a liberal once and hated Bush. Loved Clinton hated Gore. I am a Libertarian, I'm Pro-choice, Agnostic, Don't care about gay marriage as it doesn't effect me (constitutionally it is up for states to decide), Conservative when it comes to economy (or as Milton Friedman identified a "neo-liberal") and Liberal when it comes to individual rights. I believe in Central banks running the world and enslaving nations with war and manifested poverty...
@TheConservatveLibral Then you should know that guy Zo is full of shit. I smoked bud with Lavar like 5 times. Seen him down at the berry farms goodman league. Gay marriage affects you as much as womans suffrage. Conservative economic policies are only okay ideally, and have a terrible track record in this country. I swear on Lavar that almost all our prosperous times are tied to high taxes and our collapses low.
@TheConservatveLibral And that's the thing I've been saying about conservatives. They are full of shit. Legalizaing weed and prostitution are idealogically conservative position but the right hates it. The left embraces lots of conservative ideas like that, and then the crazy right rejects them. Because conservatives in this country are full of shit and only care about banks bankers and stock brokers. We're not close to having central banks dude; that's a left field idea. See the light!
@TheConservatveLibral I want to centralize banks. Only like 2 % of the country feels this way, and no one in the Obama admin is one of them. They want the banks to stay exactly the same because theyre making tons of profit. For real look into this. The problem is who really compensates our congress and by virtue has a stranglehold on the president who is too scared to ruffle feathers. Then the banks would line up all their memebers against him and.... you get the point.
These days mainstream artists are package artists...it's not about talent otherwise a million other more talented artists would get the recognition they deserve. It's all about "microwave singles". I just don't listen to the radio or watch TV. It's all garbage! But I believe quality music will make a come back!
Lady Gaga is just a Madonna Rip-off. Look at what she did in the 80s and you'll see how lady gaga is just copying the whole controversial/sex routine.
@MaMastoast Mention Eminem as good or bad. Em's new album is about a 4/10 IMO. But Em's first three albums are all amazing. I think he is a great rapper as well as a very creative writer. He stopped doing drugs so that might explain his latest album. I agree he's not a reall rapper; but what is he? He is where rap is heading.
@daswann14 I just feel he should be mentioned with some of the greatest rappers of all time. Dont know if you mentioned Nas or The Firm...but I feel you...I dont like the new rap thats out. I stick to my Doggystyle Album and Life After Death
@Raphmattic Lol. 2 great albums. I wasn't listing the best rappers there. More so pioneers of each era. Em is awesome and Nas is even better. I also see that a top 10 rapper list would generate some interest. Nas is top 6 for sure.
@saburoemon I half agree with you. I think everybody could agree that Soulja Boy is a total hack. But when it comes to Lady Gaga, my big beef is is that she could be making original music. She says she takes inspiration from the likes of Bowie and Elton John, and likens herself to them as musical artists. But listen to her songs. They are all generic club songs with a monotonous beat, heavy synth sounds. So what she dresses weirdly. Grace Jones did it, it's not original.
@jessicaR4bbit Good to see Soulja boy is almost universally regarded as a hack. I see where you stand on Lady Gaga. I don't like her voice, but either way she does little original with it. And thanks.
@jessicaR4bbit it's pop music... originality is not even important. i'm just saying she knows the medium well and she uses her palette well --- daswann said her video production was good, and i agree, although i think her videos SUCK. but her audio production (which is a team effort, not her own doing), is also excellent. i work in audio production, so i think i speak with some authority on this subject.
the bottom line is art is not as cut and dry as cutting down theists ;)
Yo I feel you 1000% on this. I have 18 year old sisters and its trying to get them to understand how wack these new rappers are. Now we did have wack rappers back in the day, but they were gimmick rappers and they knew that and understood they would not be around long. These new wack cats are winning awards for this wack shhit. Man this video makes me miss 1994 that much more.
cant stand lady Gaga, i was watching MTV music awards and she was rolling around on the stage with a fake dagger in her chest with blood pumping out. most of these mainstream female singers usually preform on stage with minuscule clothing.

@MakeMoney080910 Cube has 150 good songs. From 88-96 he was beyond great. Bird n the hand, mans best friend OMG. No ones catalog is that deep and no one but pac (1A then a big gap) touched on more social issues. NWA changed hip hop more than anyone but Herc and Flash. Jay-Z is very good and better than anyone going now. But at least 7-10 of his contemperaries were better. He's at best the 4th best NYC rapper of his era behing Biggie, Big L, and Nas. Jay is bout 15th all time in my opinion.

@MakeMoney080910 Ask Dr Dre who the best rapper of all-time is. As much as he loves Snoop and Em, and despite the fact they used to beef he says its Cube and it's not even close. And Cube is also the best writer, and lived real shit. I don't think she can sing. She sounds shower good not studio good. Mariah can fucking sing. Whitney and Aretha had pipes. Janis Joplin had a unique sound as does Lauryn Hill. Gaga sounds like a pitch controlled reproduction.

Had you seen Lady Gaga before she became all famous, when she was just a brunette pianist from New York? She was alright. Now she annoys the shit out of me.
What the hell happened to rap since around 1995 (excepting of course Immortal Technique, greydonsquare, and a few others)?

With that said, there is a lot of really good new talent emerging today. It just doesn't get played on the radio which is truly a shame. I feel like if decent artists got airtime then the people who listen to the radio would be affected for the better, if only marginally. All this nonsense about swag and shit like that only serves to pollute the minds of the young. But anyway, if you haven't, you should listen to Abstract Tribe Unique (watch?v=8jk_DruY5-g)

What's worse than Soulja Boi and the music that he makes is that he's inspired the youth to create their own music which in principle is a good thing but not when your main inspiration is Soulja Boi. Examples: watch?v=XhiHZB9sRkI (Lil B), watch?v=17f848YpZXY (Byrdboy), watch?v=yM8jrvF5zYs (50 tyson)
I think that mainstream music is going to reach a point where most people won't listen to it any more.

Daswann14 please i been watching you for almost two years man soulja boy cool i understand but please dont come for gaga. You may not have given her a chance and watch some her vidoes besided the music videos they put on tv. listen to her acoustic songs. Her lyrics--they may not mean something to you but you can tell that they mean something to her and most of her songs have layers and a message not just commercial front that people only seem to notice. girl is mad talented and creative.
MakeMoney080910 1 year ago
@MakeMoney080910 Gotta disagree. I think she's a little better than awful. And her art form is an abomination in my opinion. You can disagree, we don't all have the same ears. And I've heard at least 20 of her songs. 'This beat is sick' is good and poker face pretty good. Every other song was/is garbage. I'm sorry I just see a talentless hack. But much better than soldier boy.

@daswann14 Yes I must agree that soljia boy sucks hippo ass.Worse than that was master p.tThat guy was to hip hop what gay rapist priests are to the catholic church.master p unleashed pure uncut garbage on the world with no limit records.And all of those substandard rappers and that godawful scream UHHHH!After master p introduced garbage rap into the mainstream shit deteriorated into this plies and soljia boy shit.Brace yourself.It'll get worse.

@TheConservatveLibral Scarface is great. Top 5 southern rapper. Trick, Pastor Troy, and maybe Luda are the only ones better.
daswann14 1 year ago
@daswann14 Trick is alright. I like his flow but Face Off from PT Cruiser is a classic. Luda is fucking ridiculous, best in ATL since Outkast sort of fell off. But The Diary, My Homies, Last of a Dying Breed and The Fix are all timeless records... My top 10 all-time is Pac, Big, Pun, Face, Nas, Rakim, Bone, Meth & Red, Cassidy when he battles lol, Big L..., Top 10 right now is Wayne, Luda, Tip, Slim Thug, Juelz, Jada, Em, BG, Styles P, and Bone (listen Uni-5 the World's enemy, it's a good album)
TheConservatveLibral 1 year ago
@TheConservatveLibral The new Big Boi album is the best album to come out in 5 years. 13 good songs on there. Pun is over rated. Good call on Big L and BG. Wayne's over rated and he kinda sucks now, mixtape legend tho. Bone hasn't mattered for 10 years and their new album leaked 2 years ago. Heyday was great. Red is a way better rapper than meth; meth is just more talented overall.
daswann14 1 year ago
@TheConservatveLibral Now take 1% of this energy that you devoted to establishing a pretty good hierarchy through the history of hip-hop and really read about the history of conservatism and liberalism in America. And the use and changing meaning of republicans and democrats. Cool with me on the music. And yes Cassidy's albums all kinda suck though his flow is sick. But his battle clips are nasty. Em is closer to being top 10 alltime than top 10 right now.

allisonstar1231 1 year ago
Yeah you should look into Lady Gaga a bit, she is just a huge troll. Theres a video of her pre-Gaga and she is actually very talented. Most of it is an act.
I mean, in a recent interview for some magazine this is what she said on celibacy: "I don't know I'm kind of scared that someone will suck my talent out through my vagina." I'm paraphrasing but thats pretty much it. Hilarious lol.
If you watch/read other interviews its a lot of the same. Its mostly Bowie/Madonna been-there-done-that.
trumasamune 1 year ago
@trumasamune When GaGa was known as "Stacy" she was fuckin awesome. Very soulful voice and music... plus, she can play keyboard. Just another example of a "wholesome" young girl turned into a studio executive's wetdream..
TheConservatveLibral 1 year ago
@TheConservatveLibral Hm I don't think it's like that at all, actually! lol I really think she is behind most of the antics she comes up with, and I support them because it throws some grey into a world people seem to think should be black & white. Hackneyed or not, it's not something most people see every day.
So yeah, I'm not a fan of her music almost at all, but hell yes I am a fan of Lady Gaga. Since I don't listen to the radio/watch much tv it's kind of easy to ignore the music. =)
trumasamune 1 year ago
@trumasamune She is in no way in control of the antics, the most she may get is her opinion. Control is in the hands of the producers, directors, costume designers, choreographers, PR and Talent agents. The music is never important to them, just the message and style they are trying to pitch. When you're THAT big you have literally sold your soul. With Soulja Boy he's trying to pitch some bamma ass dance to you. He's actually OK on other people's shit but his solo act is a horrific shame.
TheConservatveLibral 1 year ago
@TheConservatveLibral Yes she certainly sold her soul. Where are you from??? Not DC I see. It's bama. Conjugated bamass =). I'm okay if you give me a nice studio and a verse to rhyme. Soulja is literally an average nigga, anyone could do his act. Most people just couldn't respect themselves.

@daswann14 Mine too. Wish Lavar's never left... I was a liberal once and hated Bush. Loved Clinton hated Gore. I am a Libertarian, I'm Pro-choice, Agnostic, Don't care about gay marriage as it doesn't effect me (constitutionally it is up for states to decide), Conservative when it comes to economy (or as Milton Friedman identified a "neo-liberal") and Liberal when it comes to individual rights. I believe in Central banks running the world and enslaving nations with war and manifested poverty...
TheConservatveLibral 1 year ago
@TheConservatveLibral Then you should know that guy Zo is full of shit. I smoked bud with Lavar like 5 times. Seen him down at the berry farms goodman league. Gay marriage affects you as much as womans suffrage. Conservative economic policies are only okay ideally, and have a terrible track record in this country. I swear on Lavar that almost all our prosperous times are tied to high taxes and our collapses low.
daswann14 1 year ago
@TheConservatveLibral And that's the thing I've been saying about conservatives. They are full of shit. Legalizaing weed and prostitution are idealogically conservative position but the right hates it. The left embraces lots of conservative ideas like that, and then the crazy right rejects them. Because conservatives in this country are full of shit and only care about banks bankers and stock brokers. We're not close to having central banks dude; that's a left field idea. See the light!
daswann14 1 year ago
@TheConservatveLibral I want to centralize banks. Only like 2 % of the country feels this way, and no one in the Obama admin is one of them. They want the banks to stay exactly the same because theyre making tons of profit. For real look into this. The problem is who really compensates our congress and by virtue has a stranglehold on the president who is too scared to ruffle feathers. Then the banks would line up all their memebers against him and.... you get the point.

These days mainstream artists are package artists...it's not about talent otherwise a million other more talented artists would get the recognition they deserve. It's all about "microwave singles".

He stopped doing drugs so that might explain his latest album. I agree he's not a reall rapper; but what is he? He is where rap is heading.

i agree about Soulja Boy.
lady gaga is not destroying music. she's actually a brilliant pop songwriter. but it's pop. just pop. don't treat it as high art. it's just pop.
pop has its place. underground music has its place. avantegarde has its place.
soulja boy is not credible. lady gaga on the other hand, actually adds something to the musical conversation.
saburoemon 1 year ago
@saburoemon I half agree with you. I think everybody could agree that Soulja Boy is a total hack. But when it comes to Lady Gaga, my big beef is is that she could be making original music. She says she takes inspiration from the likes of Bowie and Elton John, and likens herself to them as musical artists. But listen to her songs. They are all generic club songs with a monotonous beat, heavy synth sounds. So what she dresses weirdly. Grace Jones did it, it's not original.
Good video daswann :)
jessicaR4bbit 1 year ago
@jessicaR4bbit Good to see Soulja boy is almost universally regarded as a hack. I see where you stand on Lady Gaga. I don't like her voice, but either way she does little original with it. And thanks.
daswann14 1 year ago
@jessicaR4bbit it's pop music... originality is not even important. i'm just saying she knows the medium well and she uses her palette well --- daswann said her video production was good, and i agree, although i think her videos SUCK. but her audio production (which is a team effort, not her own doing), is also excellent. i work in audio production, so i think i speak with some authority on this subject.
the bottom line is art is not as cut and dry as cutting down theists ;)
