Some Facts Y'all Have To Deal With (I'm Sorry)

1. George Michael is gay (Sorry Tinaz)

2. If someone listens to certain artists you don't like it doesn't they're stupid, ignorant, ''need to wake up'', brainwashed etc. I know people who listen to everything from Nicki Minaj & Kesha... to Franz Liszt, Megadeth, Stevie Wonder, and Conway fucking Twitty.

3. All joking aside from the other thread... Rihanna is going to have more number 1 hits than Michael Jackson and Mariah Carey. And so is Katy Perry... that's just how it goes with their marketing. And when it happens, the apocalypse won't come, and Michael will not rise from the grave.

4. Chris Brown is the worst piece of human shit ever to create music besides no period needed till now.

5. Snoop Dogg Smells like weed and cream corn in real life. Scarletscandel can attest to this.

6. Just cause you like heavy metal... doesn't mean you're a superior musician. Get off your own baby dick smile

7. Little Richard, Chuck Berry, and Elvis were all great. It's 2014 clearly and Little Richard is older than Jesus. Stop with the king of rock n roll shit. Cause it was a mix of all of them you dig?

8. Just cause you listen to jazz doesn't mean you can't smile. Got damn! stop mean mugging in the jazz section...

9. Bringing numbers into things (Looking at you Janet, Madonna Mariah, Michael stans) doesn't mean an artist is great. Sorry love... it doesn't. When people talk Stevie Wonder it's about the fact he is blind and plays 1,000 instruments. And the fact he made classic albums! his fucking sales and awards are not brought into question.

When Bob Dylan or Bruce Springsteen are talked about. It's their writing! not the sales and awards that people talk about. So Janet and Mariah have 2,000 number 1 hits, 100 billboard awards, 23 vibe awards, and 20 kids meals from McDonald's. But is their music good? is their album good? why is it good? that's what matters, so quit bringing numbers into it you psycho stans.

10. Playing instruments doesn't mean you're a good musician

11. Morrissey Is Not A GOD

12. R. Kelly is a nasty pedophile, and he needs to never wear those struggle braids again.

I know this is a lot to take in... here's a hug and my condolences. Guns is hear for you.

Praise Jesus on this. Can we really all just stop talking numbers NOW of all the days they are so irrelevant, the "business" is so dead why does it matter to us that someone sold 50,000 or 500,000 are you getting a cut?

Next can we add the following:

PRINCE is never never ever going to do the album YOU WANT, nor is he going to MARKET the way you want, he isnt going to sell every concert like Pearl Jam and he isnt going to make a video for every song like Bowie or this Beyonce chick. Prince is Prince and Pearl Jam is Pearl Jam and Bowie and Beyonce are themselves, it is what it is. Prince and everyone needs to really really accept this and i dont mean to HURT the Purple Rain t shirt wearing people, but Prince might just not give a F about what "we" want, sorry to be so blunt but MOST artists though they say they do, they honestly are going to make what they want and if it pleases you good, if not,well go listen to the new Katy Perry then.

OMG... THIS GIVES ME LIFE!

Thank you for posting this! I salute you! It's ironic that you posted this because I just turned in my music snob card. People are free to like what they like and it's not for me to judge them based on their musical tastes. However, I so agree with you on sales. It's all about the music. One of my favorite albums is Corey Glover's "Hymns" which sold no more than 12,000 albums. It's one of the greatest albums ever created and one that we are still talking about 15 years later. Thanks for this.

Numbers never meant shit to me, only TALENT. I never bought any music because it was No. 1 or just because a artist is good looking, which is why most people buy music nowadays, SAD. Your rant mean something Guns. biggrin

Bringing numbers into things (Looking at you Janet, Madonna Mariah, Michael stans) doesn't mean an artist is great. Sorry love... it doesn't. When people talk Stevie Wonder it's about the fact he is blind and plays 1,000 instruments. And the fact he made classic albums! his fucking sales and awards are not brought into question.

But is their music good? is their album good? why is it good? that's what matters, so quit bringing numbers into it you psycho stans.

Yeah people get into a big tizzy over questions of "bigness". Look how many copies sold, tickets sold out in such a short time, #1 around the world, won all kinds of awards...

If it happens to an artist we like we say it is proof they are good.

If it happens to an artist we don't like, we say that most people have lousy taste, so the fact they are so big is proof the music is NOT good.

Which is it?

Some more y'all need to understand {sorry again, guns is hear if you need a towel)

13. Just cause someone doesn't have a top 10 of platinum album... doesn't mean the suck


14. Just because someone has a top 10 album, number 1 hits, or multi-plantinum albums etc. Doesn't always mean they sellout, are brainwashed, or suck.

15. Kurt Cobain did not discover America.

How many horses can we beat on this thread? Should call it the glue factory.

Speaking of beatings: All Chris Brown did was smack down goat lady. Ike did it to Tina for years and he still had a comeback before he croaked. Maybe Chris Brown did smack all the talent outta Ri-tard but you can't blame him for all her terrible music. Or the fact that people are going to try to imitate her singing indefinitely. RIP singing.

How about:

69. Just because someone really likes or defends an artist, we shouldn't label them as a "stan". Its elitist and sort of corny. Like we own these monkey bars and they gotta play in the sandbox.

Defending an artist by talking about their ''records'' and going on dozens of fan sites, spending hours debatng people, and doing it multiple days of the week etc. Is not a stan to you? lol

And that glue factory joke could have almost been a bad Lil Wayne punchline. I think you should copyright it and get some Wal-Mart dollars.

Poetry from smoothcriminal12

''

Is because at the end of the day, you know that your opinion means nothing.

The stan wars, the flaming, the arguments that erupt over nothing.

And yes, this is a response to that dumb Whitney, Madonna, Janet, Mariah thread that has erupted into nothing but stan wars, and the various comments I see daily on the org.

Your opinion means NOTHING. I will repeat that for those that didn't catch it the first time, your opinion means NOTHING.

Saying that someone else's opinion doesn't matter because they like another artist that you don't like is wrong and irrelevant. You have no empirical evidence of any sort that said artist is inferior in any way, shape, or form.

You can continue to throw around words like, "trash", "crap", or claim that the artist only cares about the money. It doesn't matter. Guess what? It's called an industry for a reason. It's called a business for a reason.

The Beatles are as much of a product as Flo Rida is; they were marketed to the public as a brand so that money could be made. It's an INDUSTRY. Money is the goal. The music industry thrives off of the money that it makes and therefore sells products (better known as artists) that it thinks will be profitable.

Michael Jackson was a product.

Elvis Presley was a product.

Lady Gaga is a product.

The Beatles were a product.

Prince was a product.

Why did I mention all that about the industry above? I'm trying to say something. Your opinion is nothing but that; an opinion. You cannot prove that The Beatles are superior to Soulja Boy, nor can you claim that Soulja Boy is more of a product than The Beatles.

I'm tired of the mucking about and the stan wars. The music discussion here, when it happens, is fantastic. Timmy's new music thread was one of the greatest threads to come out of this year. Those who are here for music and want to talk more about it should continue to push forward so that we can accomplish that goal. I have been a victim of the mentality that I trashed above, and am trying to rectify it.

I just feel like I needed to get that off of my chest. I'm going to start doing things a bit differently here, starting with "smoothcriminal's album of the week" and "smoothcriminal's throwback jam of the day", to occur daily. Just wanna spark some interesting conversation that is needed. smile

And to clarify, this is not directed towards any particular user. This is a result of multiple things I've seen written on the org throughout my almost two years hear.

Opinions? Thoughts? This thread could make for some interesting conversation.

My new album is available HERE: http://itunes.apple.com/a...mpt=uo%3D1

Though you do have a point here, I actually don't dislike Chris Brown because of the one time "smack down" incident with Rhianna, I dislike him because he's been given all these free chances to turn his reputation around for the better and he continuously shits on himself. He's not even that great of a singer yet his attitude wreaks of 2 month old garbage on a 90 degree day.

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.
