I stopped supporting THRILLER. Not Michael Jackson. How could I stop supporting him when he isn't even releasing anything new? There's nothing to support. But yeah, fuck Thriller. I'm sick of it.

Timmy84 said:

yeah, check out the "me gay? no way!" song on their "reality of my surroundings" album. if their "heterosexual celebration" song doesn't completely puke you out, there's more where that came from on their next album. screw them.

Well, I never consciously stopped supporting an artist it just sorta happened over time as I lose interest and buying their music is no longer on my checklist.

I haven't bought a Janet or Michael CD in years and I won't buy anything forthcoming from MJ unless it's really slamming. I too was disappointed with Mariah's last release but I haven't given up on her completely. She has the best chance of of doing better.

if we're talking music-wise, then nop, i never give up on the artists i like. now matter how deteriorating their work becomes.

Once she gets rid of JD, T-Pain and 'em and does somethign that actually sounds REAL GOOD, I'll be on her support team like "WHAT!"

Timmy84 said:

But that's how I thought Discipline was gonna be. I was really hyped. It almost felt like old times. I was able to overlook the little things and was down for the ride. But the ride bucked me off earlier than expected. I hope she does get it together but then part of me wonders if I'm just trying to recapture something that is long past.

See you got more guts than me and Harley. It's nice to see how passionately you defend artists you love. For me, if your music starts to shit, I can't support you musically, lol. I'll support the accomplishments though.

I love Mary, so much.

She's the REAL disciple of Billie Holiday, had Billie turned her life around. Both women showed their selves in their music.

But lately, her music has been putting me to sleep.

Fine sounds like a long commercial for GAP products.

Shiiiiit, doll, it ain't even about guts. Its about SHORT patience, now thats my problem I'm a fickle sonfagun, boy.

Harlepolis said:

It's just seems that she's still on that "No More Drama" attitude. Yeah Mary, we know you went through hell, but you gotta get on up and speak about the good times, boo

Harlepolis said:

How are those Stevie snippets doing for ya?

bboy87 said:

She's over that, long time ago

Ya'll mofos either don't get it or don't follow her musical statements

But as much as I'm happy for her well-being, I loved her music more pre-NMD.

I'm sinking my teeth on them to the ROOTS

Its a drag @ the same time too,,,coz now I gotta worry about the full versions I can't take the suspense, child.

Fishbone.

I used to be a big Fishbone fan in college until they started putting homophobic references in several of their songs. I'm not gonna spend money to have some idiots call me a fag on CD over and over. No band is THAT good.

I will admit that I still love the Truth & Soul album, but I sold all but one of my CDs by them and to be honest, I never listen to it anymore.

It's a shame because otherwise, I thought they were a really cool band. I just can't get past the homophobia.

Yep. Whitney Houston. After I found out that she was smoking all the money away or putting it up her nose, I couldn't support her anymore. I refuse to pay for her to get high.

Personally, I don't get fans who continue to support their favorite artists after they make racist statements, get caught doing seriously illegal and harmful shit to themselves and/or others, or just seem to only care about the money they get instead of their beauty of their crafts ....but that's just my .

Timmy84 said:

hell yea

though honestly, i only stop supporting an artist if they said or did something fucked up.

back then i actually bought Britney's records, untill she made the dumb statement on the Iraq war. thats when i not only stopped buying her records, but threw her stuff that i owned in the bin.

What did the Titanic wreck said?

Anxiety said:

This is what I'm talking about. With Amy's recent video and MJ with his Jew rants, I can't say I'm a fan anymore, but I still own the records. Now if some of the stuff they said actually leaked onto their recordings then like you, I would have to give those up as well.

it was featured on Michael Moore's fahrenheit 9/11

Im guessing by "support" you are meaning going to shows, buying their new albums. I really havent tossed anyone aside like that mainly because i try to avoid people that come out today and everyone is on them like they are the greatest thing ever and then they are gone, no longevity, no catalog of work to base anything on. So there isnt anyone like that, but i would say Mariah and Janet are nearing it with me. Mariah just has gotten so "tired" with these albums and singles being nothing more than a checklist of hot producers and big duets for this month, plus her sex appeal has drpped a million %% with this record, her recent weight loss is way too much. As for Janet really the same thing, but Janet just really fell into this trap where she pushed aside "pop" in favor of this new breed rythym pop, and her singing has sounded like she isnt really even interested in doing the records, almost like she knows.

What do you mean by support? I'll still listen to my Amy Winehouse and Michael Jackson albums despite the stupid things they've said. But my opinion of them as people has gone way downhill.
