You expect any different?

Face it: when it comes to music, most people in the US are sheep; easily led & prone to jump whatever bandwagon that comes along. They allow themselves to be manipulated by the ClearChannel/ MTV-driven Corporate Advertising Machine, led around blindly & willingly with their blank stares & plastic money held high. Furthermore, there is absolutely no desire by the public at large to dig deeper or discover anything challenging & different. It's their fucking loss, (not to mention the brainwashed, misled youth) and the gain is that of the horde of talentless 'gangsta' dreck -- while the ones laughing hardest are the swine who comprise Great and Powerful Music Business Behemoth.

What disturbs me most about this R&B/hip-hop shit is that it just won't GO AWAY like most musical trends that come along. Besides that, the music itself is a stagnant, putrefying mass of shit with nowhere to go. There are few if any artists in this so-called genre doing anything original, nor have they been for the last 20 years. Ice-T is one of the few that I actually admire, and where the hell is he?

Tangento... I couldn't have summed it up better!!!! That was basically my point... this crap still exists and it has for years.

As for Ice T , he got smart and left the biz and makes his millions on Law an Order, and other shows and movies. It blows my mind that people have listened to the same ole cRAP regenerated and regurgitated over and over again... but then again, I guess I sometimes expect the American music buyers to have 1/2 a mind of their own... my mistake, for giving them more credit that they deserve.
