Re: Eminem gets Sacha Baron Cohen's balls in his face

Come on man, Eminem is still the same guy that wrote the Real Slim Shady, Purple Pills, etc. of course he was in on the joke. This serious "rap star" shit is just a gimmick, Eminem would never take himself that seriously.

Re: TOP 3 OVERRATED MOVIES

1. Donnie Darko 2.Donnie Darko 3. Donnie Darko You will notice I have put Donnie Darko thrice. The first is for the movie as a movie - you know acting, film direction, characters/likeability, etc. Failed completely on all counts. The second is for the movie as a concept, the plot doesn't make sense....

I've read up a different interview where he explains in bare detail how he did it. I bet this interviewer was just a tnuc. Either that or he works for VICE.

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

I had to do some shit for a fundraiser for cancer research. Just because it was raising money that doesn't mean the stuff that went in weren't my own ideas done for their own sake. I wanted to try and put down how I (and others I talked to) felt about cancer. That was the end-point of my work, nothi...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

Who the fuck said that? Where did I ever say that? The person who commisioned the roof of the Sistine chapel did not design it, the artist did. If the person who commisioned the roof of the Sistine chapel designed it he would be the artist, not the guy who filled in the colours. Damien Hirst doesn't...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

Tbh though I've not seen the Sistine Chapel, but I have seen similar commisioned frescos, and whilst I do marvel at the amount of talent taken to create them, I get much, much more out of looking at modern art rather than at that which has been constrained by the commisioner's specifications. For ex...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

Well shit may have progressed in our lifetime, but regression is as big a part of human history as progression is. Christianity caused progression for a while, stopped the cruelty of the Roman arena, etc. but then it drove the whole of Europe into a massive regression known as the Dark Ages, and now...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

Actually allow Gwen Stefani then, I wasn't sure whether she actually sold out or whether she was just strange; "rich girl" was the deciding factor, because it was so so fundamentally opposed to what she'd said before. It ain't that you can't be rich and be an artist, there are plenty of ri...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

shit`s been like this for ever

it`s not strangling human progress at all.
human`s will always progress, it`s just part of our nature
Now that's gotta be the most ridiculous statement I've ever heard. I should be asking how old you are tbh.

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

People who have the ability to create art are sacrificing it for commercial gain. Art is by definition made for it's own sake. If you make a song, or paint a picture for money or fame, it ceases to be art. And that is indicative of what is happening across the whole of society, human progress is bei...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

Yes people put commercial viabbility over art is wrong, perhaps not from an individual perspective, but for the whole of humanity. Well that's the general gist of what I'm saying. Human potential is being truncated by the system in which we now live - in all areas. You have the potential to mke a go...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

Allow yourself wub, you're not a good troll. If I want to troll I will make the argument go on for days. And pop music along the lines of 'baby, baby, ooh' and 'if i was a rich girl, i'd have all the money in the world' is not art. Once they do that they're not simply going in a new artistic directi...

Re: Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

If you can't hear it in the music, all of her 'evolution' is inherent in the titles of the music. From

'Seasons of the Rose'

to

'Akashic Tango'

to

'Hooked'
