"Amp is such a fake punk ass wannabe"

Eminem just said that on MTV live.. anybody else saw that?





:winkwink:

Bull

My daughters listen to Queen and Areosmith. They even went to a KISS concert about 6 years ago....

Kids are a product of what their parents make them..



:Graucho

Moby should have snapped that little fag's finger

the whole hip-hop/rap/black music/"culture" moronic abomination should die. PRONTO.

"Kids are a product of what their parents make them."

I agree. Most parents influence their kids taste in music and other trends however, in general, radio, television, and their friends are a bigger influence. My parents like classic rock but my teen brothers and sisters don't. I liked classic rock but my daughter doesn't. It's only a small minority of people that make it to the age of 30 and still like what their parents did.

Once Kiss makes it to the Oldies channel, you're kids won't wanna listen. What teen wants to listen to the Oldies. A lot of college freshman today think of Pearl Jam as old. It's ancient to them.

So maybe every generation one quarter (at most) of the kids who's parents liked classic rock survive to like classic rock. Then 1/4 of theirs, 1/4 of theirs, etc. After three generations you have 1/64 of the original fan base. It drops faster after that.

I mean come on, my grandfather thought Glenn Miller was timeless. He still does. But be real. Some of the grandchildren of those that liked Glenn Miller may still like Glenn Miller but it's a small minority.

In that sense, maybe Glenn Miller is timeless but how many CD's is he selling in a year? Aerosmith is timeless like Glenn Miller is timeless. Speaking of which, Aerosmith is playing with Kid Rock here next month. I think I'll go. I'll skip the Glenn Miller dance though. I'm too young.

Oldies Radio: The Eagles, Elton John, and the Beatles. The gig's up!

That's assuming he could.

Speaking of Moby, some friends and I rolled up on a shoot a couple months back (so it seems) and I could have sworn it was Mody and a couple guys dressed in orange like worker suits, they were shooting a video or something... does he have such a video?

I was trying to prove it was jack Dangers and not Moby, but my friends insisted otherwise.

Meat beat Rules.

Just curious...

It seems like only yesterday that someone slipped Moby some GHB and ass raped him.

That interview was classic.

I think Glenn Miller and other big bands like Duke Ellington, Les Elgart, Count Basie, Cab Calloway, etc. made some of the best pop music of all time.

Dude look at that time stamp.

Were we both thinking about Mody at the same time?

Oh shit.

Hey capslocker boy, I hate (love) to break it to YOU, but Elvis made more money last year than he did when he was alive (over $35 million) His career ended 25 years ago.


Elvis's stuff will still be selling 50 years from now. If you're lucky you'll live long enough to see how lame your post was, and that I am right.

Not necessarily, many a fortune has been squanderd by those with much more talent and much more cash.

50 years from now eminem might still be a little candy-coated chocolate bean (or peanut), but no one will remember the wrapper.... uh, rapper.

Yeah, but Elvis is a religion.

Amen.

:stoned

Hey guys

The fact that you're sitting here talking about him means that he has won.

Another thing - poor white folk in Detroit DO speak ebonics where he came from.

A fad? Only time will tell. If you've ever actually listened to his lyrics instead of screaming bloody murder about what you think you're hearing you might actually respect the guy more.

Lastly... yes, it appears he needs anger management courses -LOL. It's obvious MTV sat him by Moby, artists don't pick their seating.

Anyway you look at it you have to accept the fact that his personna, real or not, sells records. He's HUGELY successful. After selling 10s of millions of records do you actually think he's going to care in 2 years if he's popular or not? Probably not.

Brad

Sad but true.

If I had to put money on it, I would say Detroit is the original home of the Wigger.

Spoooky

In 50 years he may reach cult statis. (Elvis, not eminymemen)





BTW --- TONS of younguns today listen to classic rock and love it. I'm at that age where I know a lot of single moms, and I've seen countless times where the mom is singing along to some Led Zep tune and her kid says (with surprise) "Mom,.... YOU know the words to THAT SONG???" as if to say how could you know the words to a cool song?, as if the song just got released or something.

That mother answered by saying "Dear, I was a bit older than you are when that song came out" ha ha.


Sure, lots of the less magnetic classic rockers will fade eventually, but the biggies, the giants, they will remain timeless and forever loved by many. Not all, but many. Why? Simple, because people that love this music love it a lot, like forever alot. Not just 'this year' alot, but forever.

Comparing Led Zep to duke ellington is really an empty argument. Duke's music is not rock, and for many on this planet rock is here to stay till the end.

I saw the preview for Eminem's new movie "8 Mile".
The flick stars Eminem, Mekhi Phifer ("O," "Shaft"), Brittany Murphy ("Don't Say a Word," "Girl, Interrupted," "Riding in Cars with Boys"), Eugene Byrd ("Dead Man") and Kim Basinger. Directed by the guy that directed "L.A. Confidential,".

Soundtrack by Dre and Eminem.

Very true... we even had some of them up in Bloomfield Hills. God I hated that shit. It must be contageous. I don't think there is an understanding on GFY of how ghetto dirt poor white trash can be. Victims of social ills? Sure, I'll buy into that. Everybody is a victim these days.

On a separate note, it's funny how many rich black kids I knew that spoke the King's english in Elementary and Middle School but then dumbed down their vocabulary in High School because that evidently was the cool thing to do.

Brad

love him / hate him...
I'm undecided.
However, one word... "Stan"
I think theres a touch of genius going on there...
how did come up with that ?
just my :2 cents:
thats all,

Rock and Rap. It's all one now. A fusion. There are 100's of bands out there playing some sort of mixture. Watch MTV2. That's all it is. The next decade of music.

There's been 'wiggers' all through history but the rap wiggerness started in the south. 2 Live crew brought them out in a major way thanks to the frat-boy raunch rap. Not to mention the shared appreciation for gaudy cars. Northern and east coast wiggers didn't really develop in large numbers until the Wu-Tang era. There were always some, but they were just backpackers.

Sir Mix-A-Lot, 2 Live Crew, Geto Boys, NWA, Magic Mike and others were just so much bigger down south than up north that it caught on faster with a bigger multi-racial audience.

Of course, he'll have $100 million to roll around in, and he probably won't give a fuck that he's not hugely popular anymore. And nobody sells 25 million records without being slighly talented, it's not like someone else is writing those lyrics. By the way, not really an Eminem fan, he's way too angry for my tastes, but the boy can rap.

and then he'll be a rich punk ass bitch. Money doesn't change a personality. He'll always be a little fuckin' creepy wannabe.

"Money MAGNIFIES a personality" - Oprah Winfrey

Oprah's a fuckin' cow.

Just curious, who does he want to be in particular? This is a very entertaining thread by the way. Nice and looong too.

Well, from what I've seen, he's desperately trying to be a black rapper. He talks black, he walks black, he acts black..... he needs to get the reverse Michael Jackson surgery and just get it over with.... do you know how fucking stupid he looks standing there talkin' like a fuckin' brother? Somebody really should tell that clown, HE'S NOT BLACK! I think that's probly what disturbs me the most.... it's so fucking laughable it makes me cry in embarrasment for him.

Eminem has got "Vanilla Ice" written all over him. Except it's worse..... at least vanilla ice didn't actually THINK he was black.

i hate reading and listening the word eminem

the whole thread makes me sick because em...... is posted several times :BangBang:

:1orglaugh someone's jealous :1orglaugh

This really happened?

You said eminem has no talent.. That's funny. He's easily the most talented rapper around, up there with Rakim, Biggy, Big Daddy Kane, RZA, Genius, Last Emperor, MC Juice, Chino XL, etc. When I first started listening to Eminem I did a google search and got 0 results.. I actually wrote to AllMusic.com (who I write for) telling them to please add an entry for him, because he's going to be huge.. Nobody even knew what he looked like at that point.. As much as people hate him, he came up through the underground rap scene and absolutely killed it.. Nobody could touch him in a battle.

What did he say.. "I'm not crazy I just say shit that's crazy to crazy people to make 'em believe I'm crazy so they can relate to me.." He TELLS his fans he's not a killer, not crazy at all actually.. If you listened to his first album "313" he's talking about God and settling down with his daughter and shit..

These are some of his early verses when he was still a radio battle MC murdering people in battles.. You may not like him or his pop status, but he's still one of the dopest rappers alive.


I'm the illest rapper to hold a cordless
Patrolling corners
Looking for hookers to punch in the mouth with a roll of quarters
I'm meaner in action
Than Rosco beating James Tarantino on acid
And smackin his back with vacuum cleaner attachments
I grew up in the wild hood
As a hazardous youth
With a fucked up childhood
That I use as an excuse.
And aint shit changed
But kept the same mindstate
Since the third time that I failed 9th grade
You probably think that I'm a negative person, don't be so sure of it
cuz I don't promote violence... I just encourage it
I laugh at the sight of death
As I fall down a cement flight of steps
And land inside a bed of spider webs
So throw caution to the wind
You and a friend
Can jump off of a bridge and if you live, do it again
Shit, why not? Blow your brain out
I'm blowing mine out
Fuck it, you only live once you might as well die now

It's only fair to warn
I was born with a set of horns
And metaphors attached to my damn umbulical cord
Warlord of rap little bastard with a two by four board
That smashed into your Honda Accord
With a 4 door Ford
But a more toward (?) droppin an accapella
The choppa (?) fella
The mozarella
Worse than a hellacopta propella
Got you locked in the cella
With your skeleton showing
Developing anorexia
While I'm standin next to ya
Eating a full course meal watching you starve to death
With an IV in your veins
Feeding you liquid darvicet
Pumping you full of drugs
Pull the plugs
On the gunshot victims full of bullet slugs
Who were picked up in an ambulance
And driven
To receiving with the asses ripped outta they pants
And given
A less than 20 percent chance
Of living
Have a possible placement
It's a hospital patient
Storing the dead bodies in grandma's little basement
Doctor Kevorkian has arrived
To perform an autopsy on you while you scream "I'M STILL ALIVE!"
Driving a rusty scalpel in through the top of your scalp
And pulling your adams apple out through your mouth...
Better call the fire department
I've hired an arson
To set fire to carpets
And burn up your entire apartment...
I'm a liar that starts shit,
Got your bitch wrapped around my dick
So tight you need a crobar to pry her apart wit

Met a retarded kid named Greg with a wooden leg
Snatched it off and beat him over the fucking head with the peg
Go to bed with the keg, wake up with the forty,
Mixed up with Alka Seltzer and Formula 44D
Fuck an acid tab I'll strap the whole sheet to my forehead
Wait until it absorbs in and fall to the floor dead
No more said, case closed, end of discussion
I'm blowin up like spontaneous human combustion
Leaving you in the aftermath of holocaust and traumas
Cross the bombas (?)
We blowin up your house killing your parents
and coming back to get your foster mommas
And I'm as good at keeping a promise as Nostradamus
Cause I aint making no more threats
I'm doing drivebys in tinted Corvettes on Vietnam war vets
I'm more or less sick in the head
Maybe more cause I smoked crack (?)
today, yesterday, and the day before sabbath
Walk the block with a labrador
Strapit more corral for war than El Salvador
Foul style galore
Verbal cow manure
Coming together like the eyebrow on Al B. Sure

he crossed the line, he posted em***m "lyrics"

BAN THE BASTARD :mad:

Yes. I remember thinking "who the fuck is this Moby guy crying about getting ass raped?" Id personally keep that to myself if I woke up and found out someone had wreaked havoc on my anus after they doped me up. Not Moby... he wears rape like a badge like Tori Amos or some other whiny bitch on a piano.

Back when techno was limited to video games and gay clubs.

I'm just doing the lord's work... Spreading the gospel.

Eminem is like a rapping comedian. Soem people think Martin Lawrence is funny, some don't. Same thing applies here.
