I thought all rappers rip off other peoples tracks.

well, taking a 3 second sample and transforming into something else v. using the original voices & riffs (what most as$es today do) then just sampling it makes a big difference imo

I think it started as far back as MC Hammer. Seems to me, one of his songs, Prince (the little purple guy) did first. Pray, maybe?

Fat Boys did it with Chubby Checker & The Twist

Fat Boys again with Wipe Out

RUN DMC with Aerosmith's Walk This Way

Puff Daddy & Faith with The Police/Sting's Every Breath You Take.

Fuggies ripped off Roberta Flack with Killing me Softly

Who can forget this one? BJ Thomas' Hooked on a Feeling (I guess this was pre- Hip Hop.

Blue Swede version:

thats what all the stuggling musicians say

Nah, the struggling one's just look at that perspective in the short term. There's no problem in cashing in, but you can still put the music first. Its not like the kids who listen to Kanye know who King Crimson is...so choosing them won't benefit the song's financial success. I'm sure he could synth a beat to use those sh*tty lyrics with. He just takes the easy road.

Also, I don't think y'all are getting my point. I'm just trying to reiterate he's a douche. how can you argue that?

hes arrogant, cocky, and bitchy, which probably describes alot of people. But when hes focused he can make some really good music. before he went mainstream pop (his first two albums) he was my favorite artist. he made some good gym music for me to workout to, but i lost that connection i had w/ music. hopefully he scales back the on the autotune this time around.

Not arguing that.I know he is.Just saying I think he is talented douche.

But on the music part I think artist still would like to put the music first.But the big record companies dont care.its all about the money for them.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
