Artists who have become parodies of themselves..

[Cold Truth]

just noticing... a few guys have gone off the deep end an dbasically become what someone else would do in an over the top impression of them....

the ying yang twins are a perfect example. watch them on mtv... and then watch "the simpsons" and check for any episode with Cletus.. its uncanny... but these two dudes talk the way i would talk trying to impersonate them, making fun of them! now i cant even do that!

or.......

sorry to say, but jim jones.... he has really jumped into an over-the-top, cartoonish character....

so, i am just kind of wonmdering where reality and the character meet.

LL Cool J

No disrespect....acts way more ghetto than he really is. Everytime he is on air, he plugs his albums and I think he is playing off his looks way more than he used too.

He has become very cartooonish. That Headsprung cut.....when you listen to his vocals, he sounds like he is trying waaaaay too hard to hit low octaves.

THERE YOU GO AGAIN NOT READING THE WHOLE POST.

i wasnt hating on a damn thing. did you read the question? "where do the character and reality meet"?

i didnt hate on anything. i wasnt bitching about anything.

i was wondering, how much of this really them and how much of it is put on? because it is extreme and hard to tell.

Well let me enlighten you my brother since I've had on 3 occassions the opportunity to meet and build with them, them some silly brothers, and the HEEYY noise is something D-roc picked up from his dad, they some of the cooolest cats you could sit down and share a blunt with for real, read that article where lil john says everytime he says O.K. on a record his publishing (basically he makes more money off the beat) with his voice on it, and you'll see they are some pretty smart brothers!!

 

[Cold Truth]

see, thats a better response. thats the type of info i was wondering about.

are they the same way in real life?

 

[Kevin A]

Jaydub, do the ying yang twins plan to put you on since ya'll cool like dat?

 

[iLLVA1]

I dont know about ya'll but I dont think them cats can even rap. They lyrics are wack and they always saying some stupid shht. But thats just my opinion

 

[eldiablo]

what bout humpty. he's so cold he know murs. bet

 

[StressWon]

I seen the Ying Yang Twins on MYV2. I'm sorry to whoever is a fan, but Holy Christmas they so are so fuckin retarded! They are so unbelievably autistic they made me say "Holy Christmas"! I don't care who that noise came from or what the hell they are even talkin about, because I did hear there album once,,,unfortunately(lomg story) and I couldnt believe what it takes to get on. I have to start dumbin down myself and make noises like I'm a fuckin Jerry kid.
