yeah but its not like its hard to see through it. if someone swears by a lie, its not hard to recognise it (as you have) and when you recognise it, you can laugh.
sure they are technically lying to us but we shouldnt expect the truth from them.
it reminds me of a line Buck 65 kicked "skydiver, your pants are on fire and the rest of your clothes are blowing"
so its like, fake motherfuckers fall and burn. not financially. most likely in a spiritual sense. and to me thats the most important area.
but what im getting at is dont let that shit irritate you. just cos they are making more money than you it doesnt mean your not above their petty shit.

I dont expect the truth from them...i jus would like to see more creativity in general in videos that play in tha mainstream so often...Im not saying 100% is doodoo...but i do think that about 98% is...so thats tha whole point mess...And i do agree that its not worth getting angry about the people making money off stupid shit...what actaully bothers is tha more simplistic view as to jus that it would be nice to see some "creative variety" instead...im not specifically mad at tha cats makin doe, im mad at tha fact that i dont see enough creativity on tha tube when i kno for a fact that its out there....like, im not even a big kanye fan, but i jus caught that video with him goin to tha airport and shit...i thought that was a descent video believe it or not considering what most of you guys probably think about my stingy ass!lol...tha reason i gave it cred tho is cuz it had more of a conscious tip for a change and tha video followed tha lyrics for tha most part....You ever notice how a lot of videos have nuthin to do with tha music at all???...yeah, well that shits get tired, and if we could see even more videos like that kanye joint id be a little more content, ya kno?.....Yo in general this whole thing was jus here to vent anyways, u gotta do that sometimes...u jus cant be happy with everything all tha time....anyways...i hope u sort of see my standpoint???

lol for sure Deuce. your quite welcome to vent.
i see your view point. and yeah it would be able to see some more creativity. but i think its like this.......
the ones who are creative with their music, will be creative with their video clips. for eg. take a look at a the video clip of a sellout. it will most likely have nothing to do with the music itself. now take a look at a DJ Shadow or Krs-One clip. In Dj Shadows "Midnight In A Perfect World" clip, it shows him going to the record shop and digging for samples. and it shows different individuals actually playing the instruments he used in the song. there is a young dude in his basement getting a rhythm going on his drum set. an old man paying the piano. a young girl playing the oboe etc etc.
in the Krs filmclip for "Step Into A World" you see a shitload of breaking, graffing, mcing and djing. these filmclips are just some examples of how film clips can be used to magnify the message of the music
but my point is that these kinds of filmclips are always going to come from artists who ARE actually artists. they will make sure they have creative control.
but mainstream shit (which is what hits the tube) is never going to get creative. not in music and not in video clips. creativeness is too much for the masses.
anyhoo. as you said you just needed to vent and i can appreciate that so i dont wanna analyse it too much.
but yeah i think we can agree that MAINSTREAM VIDEO CLIPS SUCK. lol
