    Aging and its effect on your musical judgment/tastes.

    I'm generally very open to any kind of music and pride myself on having a good ear for things that may potentially have commercial success. Lately, as I've been getting older - I find that touch starting to fade. For example, where I was supposedly looking for the avant-garde and truly...

    Live Performance

    Sin, Congratulations on getting your act ready for a live set. I've been to far too many live hip-hop shows, so here's my two cents: Try to have your music run off a hard disk. CD's can skip and I would generally not recommend them for a live performance. Ash is right, try to incorporate as...

    What's Your Opinion on Your Music Being Pirated?

    (I simply read the first page of this post and decided to respond) Artists or their management have been known to leak their work on torrent sites to make it look like there's a grassroots appeal to their music, since pirate sites lend a populist credibility to an artist. It's interesting when...

    A good timeline of why the US isnt so popular

    I'm a bad person, I push people's buttons for my personal entertainment. You guys - lighten up (regarding my specific thread - not some of the other unfortunate events mentioned in this thread.) Watch this video and laugh your ass off. http://www.cannibalthemusical.net/ta/america.htm Some of...

    A good timeline of why the US isnt so popular

    Show me a time when realpolitik DIDN'T explain what was really going on. I'll take it any day over cultural relativism and other crap. The world is fucked up. It's not pretty, and America's to blame for fucking EVERYTHING? Gimme a break. Where the fuck are people defending human rights in...

    A good timeline of why the US isnt so popular

    So... a bunch of farmers decided to settle in Mesopotamia and now I'm supposed to be guilted by that? The U.S. invented the microchip. Let's guilt somebody for that. I'm pro-whatever makes the US still kick ass. All this other crap you hear is PR from either party or simply opposition...

    Sick of all the anti-U.S. bullshit. When Afghanistan can invent Auto-Tune, then maybe I'll STFU.

    Quick Question Album or LP? whats the difference these days

    What you're doing is an album or LP. The 45 min mark was for long play records and doesn't matter anymore. It had to do with groove length of the records and how shitty or how good it sounded, because the quality of the grooves in the vinyl indicated the type of sound. LP's sounded shittier...

    Over 22,000 hits for Smash Brothers album on Google search

    I ain't dishing advice (read my sig), just opinion from an anonymous cat on an internet forum. 1) Never consider what you did a failure. It isn't a failure - you have a product that didn't have promo money, so it wasn't pushed. Keep grindin'. Nothing in life comes easy - especially when...

    Help me with my drums... Please...

    Advice: Don't be needy. If the drums sound like shit - pretend they're hot as fuck. Believe your own bullshit. You'll be surprised how far that gets you.

    Question to the Americans...

    You're probably in the South Park or Family Guy demo. The advertisers that pay for spots on that show don't give a shit about your opinion until you get older and like blander stuff (it happens when you get a little older, trust me).

    Question to the Americans...

    Yeah. From my understanding it has the highest ratings for a sitcom - hence why it's called the "biggest comedy." Charlie Sheen (from the show) makes close to a million bucks an episode from what I hear. It's big because people across all demos watch it. I think it's bland with a slight...

    That's why you don't expose yourself to shit like this when you're trying to shop something. The appearance that something is hot is more powerful than something that's out there but gets hated on by a dumbass at a review site... and then still trying to convince a head that you're hot...

    Obama wiretapping, in nearly the same vein as the Bush administration.

    Yo, y'all don't know what the fuck a President knows, man. The world is gangsta. You have to be tough as nails to take on terrorists and whoever else the fuck is tryna screw us. You entire countries n' shit tryna knock us down. Obama knows what the fuck is going on. I hope he doesn't take...

    Cosign. Natioanl security ain't a political issue, it's an American issue. We need to protect ourselves from whoever wants to harm us. There's some serious shit out there that we don't know about. We gotta understand that shit.

    Why artists don't make good music anymore

    Cosign. Selling out is the compromise of self-indulgence with something the masses want to hear. If you want to make a hit, write a love song that a 16 year old girl can relate to or lyrics your dumbest friend can understand. If you want to be an underground god. Flip the verbals, but...
