I used to think that, but after hearing Tye Zamora explain last year their accident in Spain and how that ruined their careers... The timing was horrible, they were on a high, the accident happened and they had to stop everything to rebuild their lives. When they came back the world (and the music industry) had moved on to the next big thing and they never were able to get back on their feet. Plus all the trauma ruined the group dynamic. They were never the same anymore.

Legends? They had about 2 noteworthy songs and one of those was a terrible cover. They were a flash in the pan. When you refer to them as Legends, you are putting them in the same category as the likes of Hendrix, The Beatles, Zeppelin and Bowie....and they certainly aren't on that level.

Rap and punk (even if AAF aren't considered "real" punk...though I don't know how anyone could claim that after they pulled this stunt) have a lot more in common than usually care to admit. I'm completely with you, seeing everyone go from "WTF?!" to "Ok, yeah...how about we just have fun together?" makes this one of the best things to ever happen. Except for how it ended... We need more of this attitude/atmosphere instead of...whatever the shit is going on right now where "us v them: TO THE MAX HATE" is the norm.

I love that all the hip hop artists were loving it too. Wish people would realise that a lot of the hip hop legends, even the ones of today, came up on a lot of rock music too.

I started on rock music and eventually found my way to rap, but I think they are two music genres that just go hand in hand.
@mamasquid14017 жыл бұрын
I didn't realize how deeply interconnected rock and rap are until I visited the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. There you learn that rock music has black cultural roots and how all music is essentially derivative of the generations that came before it. The Hall of Fame pays homage not just to great rock and roll artists (including the black artists who created rock as we know it) but also legends of rap. It was a really eye-opening experience for someone who grew up thinking about rock music as a white people thing. Music is kind of this collaborative process that spans across cultures and decades, it's pretty cool.

+deken That is true. I say God over everything! Yeah I actually seen that they came to my hometown a few weeks ago but missed. I've been listening to lots of other genres and it is really exciting and a breath of fresh air. Hearing independent or underground artists is always rewarding.
@Deken8 жыл бұрын
Penelope416 Amen! Ah, it's too bad you missed their date in your town. :( Same here -- I truly like some of all types of genres. I find it interesting to find new bands and artists...even retro artists that I missed along the way growing up and older. Of course, we all have our favorite old standards that we lean on and love, too. Yes, independent and underground artists are a bonus! My brother is actually a part of that genre. He's in a band now called Red As Blood based out of Knoxville, TN. They have a few videos on KZbin. This band hasn't been together very long. Prior to that, the previous band he was in enjoyed quite a bit of local and regional success as well as some over seas oddly enough, Pegasi 51 -- they were together for years and years. You should check them out. (Promote, promote...lol.) I posted quite a few of the Pegasi 51 vids on my channel. Don't start with the Rolling Stones cover if I still have it posted -- the sound was horrible!

The term “sell out” is used too often. These guys are very talented and their music is the shit. Who knows why they didn’t blow up as they should have. I live for old skill HipHop (Tribe, Gangstarr, DeLaSoul) and I love these guys. Goes to show good music crosses genres.

I know what the lyrics really meant, but clearly the song takes a whole new meaning in this context.

What did you expect from the media? Black people below weren,t shocked or like - Hey these white dudes crashed our party! Most of the celebs there were themselves performers and took it as it was - a performance. This was a time when you would have videos like that of Eve and Gwen Stefani crashing a party for old rich dudes and everybody was having a great time. The only difference was that this was filmed live, no one was directing the show and everybody was reacting naturally - i.e. puzzled and/or enjoying it. Media - then and now - had to make this into a ”crash” to sell the story. And authorities - then and now - had to ”intervene”. Heck, even MTV presented this as a ”crash”. When they went and ”crashed” the gay parade, they said ”We thought it would be funny to just go down the parade on a float, appreciating diversity and jamming on our instruments. The most negative response we got all day was [from] the [anti-gay] fanatics". So much for crashing anything...

Rant almost over, i think this guy comes across easily insensitive, probably dealing with some kind of denial and really should look at things relatively and don't think you can work everyone out as one solution fits all. Sorry, this probably should be on Facestuff or something and i wish you well.
