what up everyone,
hope ya'll had a good weekend. pretty good one, overall -- us basketball won the gold, supercrew got voted as america's best dance crew, and this one cat i know very little of is getting me excited about the upcoming election. you know, i was just watching mtv to see who won the best dance crew thing and i noticed that the network is trying more and more to showcase emerging artists.
i guess there's this group called the jonas brothers. who are they? they look lame to me and there was this girl named jonas that i had a peculiar experience with a long time ago. also, there's this new show with this white and black guy; one looks like a younger pharrel, the other like a younger chris cornell -- what the hell is that? i heard one of their songs and thought it was wack. then, there's this new kid rock song -- for real? and the one that takes the cake is this other girl -- tyler perry or something like that. she was wailing on some acoustic guitar (why is blue always the backdrop for an acoustic show) and singing about some error in judgement by sleeping with someone or something. fucking aye, man. i can't believe that the mainstream media, especially the hardcore influential and authoritative MTV network are taking the younger generation for a ride. you can't seriously believe this is good music, good melodies, good ART, right?
man, that really peeves me. what sucks is that we grow up thinking of this and that -- what's good for us, what's bad for us. eventually you grow up and it's like "hey, wait a minute" and you have to make that leap of faith to trust your own feelings and do what you do. the most major one isn't about politics, values or religion. it's about music. your music choice. people generally spend more time engaged with a song, jingle or polyphonic ringtone than they do with anything else. and still they feed what's given to them. you know what you should do when you want brie and they only have cheddar? you don't settle for cheddar, you go find yourself a place that sells brie. you know what lazy, indifferent people do? they resort to mainstream media, radio stations, or revert back to classic rock. please, it's never been easier and please, don't tell me nothing good has come out since then because you know iron and wine, right? just kidding. what i'm saying is stay relevant and listen to the voice of your generation.
sorry, just a little rant because a little payola goes a long way in the music industry and there are amazing artists out there that will never get their shine. pisses me off. and you know, eventually i'm going to explode and just write this long diarrhea-diatribe about HOW MUCH I HATE KARAOKE and MUSIC THEY PLAY IN DIVE BARS and HOW LAME I THINK IT IS THAT PEOPLE GET DRUNK AND THINK THEY ROCK OUT BECAUSE THEY KNOW THE LYRICS TO PARADISE CITY or FOREIGNER and don't even have the balls to BREAK SOME BOTTLES or smoke a joint or RUB SOME THIGHS in the back of a club. sorry, i'm dismounting now. i'm sorry -- it's how i feel, i know i'm taking the wrong approach and it's pricky of me and it's unattractive. it's just, like man, i was just watching mtv and stuff, and like man, i wanted some brie. but all i got was cheese.
