this is some sad shit man, i dont like reading news these days because theres alot of negative stuff these days that can keep your mind from the positive. but i thought i should post this up anyway. guys you gota treasure ur ears, especially since you are producers. I dont know whether she lost her hearing because of her environment, or it was a chronic problem she has had that has developed over time, but non-the-less the article is a good reminder for musicians out there to take care of their ears. Only recently i also heard that Phil Collins had lost hearing some time back, in one of his ears because of the loud music.

Yeah hearing is a beautiful thing man. Sad to hear that she lost her hearing.

Yeah, I heard about this on a morning radio show. It definitly makes you think about the concequences of blaring your music at all times. I would hate to lose my hearing. Fuck It, I'd be like Beethoven and make my music from feeling the vibrations, lol...

yeah he made his music from music theory an a memory of what the notes sounded like. not the vibrations

 

[The Bastard]

my hearings been impaired my whole life. this is a reminder i should take more care of my ears, thanks

Actually you are partly correct, however, he DID use the vibrations LITERALLY, he chopped off his piano legs and put his head on the floor while playing things. The rest was all theory. Most classical music very strictly adheres to theory.

On topic:

MAN goin deaf would be a fucking NIGHMTARE for me. I feel for her for real....

word.

I seen the press conference she held on t.v a couple days ago. She speaks differently now...seriously, it was kinda hard to watch.

I hope her surgery/treatments goes well.

 

[Craig Gantt]

Im sorry to hear that about foxy she was deffinitely off the chain back in the firm clique days. I hope that surgery works out for her

 

[KurtisRich]

Makes me more cautious now when I DJ. I gotta start wearing ear plugs.

 

[Vince]

I don't really think sudden loss of all hearing is caused by music. But I'm not a doctor...

 

[MarkN]

nah i woz reading about it before they never mentioned music having anything to do with it ! however ovbiosuly people should still take care ! it is just a rare disorder, didnt she have one surgery already but it didnt work ! hopefully they can sort it out one or another !

 

[Benny BuKu]

Was this before or after she started rapping? Just playin,,,naw, I'm not, she sucks.

 

[Fury]

[pancakebunnny]

Hell, it was a matter of time. It's simply the human body's defense mechanism kicking in.

I know if I rapped like that, I'd probably be deaf in a week.
