Akon or Lil wayne?

[Haz]

Ok.. i Can Actually Listen Thru a Akon Song So That Means i'm Followin a Trend? Do You Really Think i Think I'm Some Kind Of 'Cool Guy' For Being a Akon Fan? Lmao....

I Bump Johnny Cash.. Three Doors Down... Nickel Back..People who Play The Guitar.. Piano... Violins...
All Kinds of Music... i Listen To music just To relax Myself.. You Won't Catch Me listening To Any New Lil Wayne Shit ...
i Can pick Out Garbage & Eliminate the shit..
N i've been Sayin That Shit About Lil Wayne For the Longest time Lmao.. If U Ask Complexity Who I Use to always Quote it was Wayne before he got crazy Recognition...i was Bumpin 500 Degreez n All that Bullshit.. he Was in His Prime Carter 2.. Then he pretty Much Went down hill..

Anyways Not everyone follows this "trend" you Speak Of..Not Me atleast.. Thank U that'll be all ..

Yes, but you listen to other shit too. Like real hip-hop and you actually agree that these two cats aren't talented. There are people that believe that Akon and Lil Wayne are the greatest at what they do. Yes, they're allowed to believe that, but I'm also allowed to disagree with it too. I'm just saying that there are cats out there that are much more talented but kids these days just listen to anything with a catchy hook and a nice beat. Its all just crap in my eyes. You have the same producers making the beats, throw some Joe Shmoe over it and play the shit every 15 minutes on the radio. Music just isn't the same anymore. Its all electronic. Dudes even alter their voices electronically because they can't sing for shit. And people buy it anyways. That's on them. I just wish it wasn't like that. Its all about the club bangers now. Where did the creativity, raw talent and craftsmanhip go? There's no heart and soul in pop music now. Its all money, thats it. All these cats dream about making it big and seeing them fat paychecks, not performing in front of thousands of people, knowing if you stopped singing, you could hear all of em singing your songs. They don't make music that you sit and relate to so much that you cry, smile, feel a sense of relief. They make music that rattles your trunk and gets bitches on the dance floor. Whatever makes these mindless drones happy, I guess. I just can't listen to an Akon album like I could a Marvin, Michael, or even a Boyz II Men album. Them motherfuckers can sing and they don't need a Scott Storch or Timbaland or whoever the fuck's beat to sound good. Listen to an Akon accappella. And Lil Wayne... I can't listen to his shit the same way I listen to a Nas, Brother Ali, or even a Twista or Tech N9ne album. Those motherfuckers can rap. Whatever though, I'm beating a dead horse and people are gonna do what they want. I just hope all these kids are pirating that shit. That's just my opinion.

^^^ damn Ruckus, you must have a lot on your chest. you could probaly write a dope song about this shit. i just say fuck both lil wayne and akon. they both suck..

you can polish a piece of shit all you want, but in the end its still nothing but a piece of shit.

and thats it

[Cee4]

its good to debate music but why do people get so upset about what other people listen to?


personally i think rap today is over saturated and has no replay value
its dance music for me, whether its techno, trance, electro, house or drum and bass

[The Gonz]

^^^

Exactly. I'm not upset, just disappointed in society lol. People are paying these guys millions of dollars for something they're not even good at. Wish I had a job like that...

Lmfao ^ The Guy that Sings 'Birthday Sex'

[Lawgix]

i say akon... and for Ruckus... u need to check out T-Pain's album Three Ringz i think its track 13 but its a song he wrote for his kids... he shows off his singing abilities without the use of the auto tune... he actually has a very decent voice... now akon hes gotta good voice but t-pains is much stronger than akons... lil wayne makes me wanna choke myself i can't stand his nasally ass... i mean t-pain isn't a Tyrese but he CAN sing... might wanna check it out man...

[The Gonz]

Eh, I appreciate it but I shouldn't have to open my mind and dig for a track to look for an "artist's" talent. I know Tyrese can sing, everyone knows that dude has a hell of a voice. But one track isn't going to make me change my opinion of his abilities. They say first impressions are the ones that last, and my first impression of T-Pain was that he uses auto-tune because he doesn't have the ability to sing on par with guys like Tyrese. You are more than welcome to believe that he uses auto-tune to be different though. And Kanye... man, I swear they recorded his ass singing in the shower on 808 & Heartbreak. I like his previous albums but that one is garbage. Like I said before, auto-tune is nothing new, Roger Troutman was doing that shit before any of us were alive. You know, the guy who sings the chorus in California Love... at least I hope you know. So T-Pain isn't doing anything groundbreaking. I suggest he loses the box and takes some singing lessons. But again, that's MY opinion.

not performing in front of thousands of people, knowing if you stopped singing, you could hear all of em singing your songs.

When i Went To See Metallica They Did That at The End Of The Memory Remains, it Was Fucking immense. We All Sang For Wayyyyy Longer Than We Should've And u Just Saw Hetfield On Stage Completely Overwhelmed, Deffo One Of My Untradeable (Not a Word, i Know) Moments.

^that was "talk box" he used

[The Gonz]

Same concept. He used an instrument/device to adjust the tone of his voice. I think the talkbox sounds much better than auto-tune though. Quit being so damn nit picky Haz lol. Its like saying dude is driving a car, then you come in and say, "Well, technically its a crossover SUV". Dont matter, dude's still driving. The action and concept hasn't changed, just the method. Ya dig? I dig. Werd. Lol just fucking with you.
