yea no doubt you definately dont wanna have the same shit all the time, but like you said they should split it up once in a while instead of havin one side of the spectrum put out there all the time

I'm sick of every fuckin underground head having this reverse descrimination for underground music. People are trying to justify how ignorant most mainstream music is today. Not all underground rappers rap about the moon and the stars and flower petals. Most of the time their main problem is like, beats or delivery. But you motherfuckers would rather hear gay lyrics with a good beat than good lyrics with a gay beat. Wait scratch that, underground heads actually have good beats now. And the beat is NEVER annoying. It's just more toned down. More calm and it amplifies the effects of the lyrics. But no, you go and listen to your gay club bottles popping bullshit, I'll be here actually listening to something that makes me give a fuck about what they have to say.

if it was up 2 y'all everything wuld b all dull n depressing

even the underground rappers u worship so u much r smart enuff to realize dis

read 9th Wonders blog anbout it, he shits on all u, he says he basically hates all u undergroun heads who think little brother is wack for goin major n doin songs wit mainstream niggaz

but on the real, jus as ur able to make a good concept song

its a fuck'n skill bein able to make a song for the clubs n get everybody on sing'n a ctachy hook, cuz its sumthin YOU CANT DO

so in short, stop hate'n on every fuck'n rapper, damn


Mainstream music is fucking wack. Most of it is just straight up garbage, Absolutely no effort went into making it, and what they get out of it is a bunch of dumbasses following trends and basically handing over their wallets. Mainstream music is music, but it is not good music. Underground music is wack sometimes, but a lot of the time its at least got an OK beat, nice flow and decent lyrics. I agree that undeground music is not suitable for clubs, it was not made to be danced to. I dont think ANYBODY on RV would say that underground music should be played in clubs.

But wtf @ mainstream music. Shit beat, shit lyrics, shit vocals, shit flow. wtf is good about it? Nothing at all is good about 99% of mainstream music. It SUCKS. Musically, it IS NOT GOOD MUSIC. It is not melodic, it is droning and repetetive, it sends a bad message to the public which just fuels the already imminent demise of this society by degrading women, promoting premiscuity and violence, and raising a bunch of no-minded idiots.

You might say "youre dumb, people like mainstream music, just cos u dont dusnt meen its bad." It's called adaptation. Every human does it. If you sit someone in a room, and play a horribly bad song over and over again, by the time they leave the room they will love the song. Same goes for food, if someone eats a food they hate over and over again, they no longer hate the food and actually would prefer it over other foods.

For years, all that has been on the radio and all that has been on MTV is complete trash. By now, record companies have succeeded in making the general public LOVE complete trash. Mainstream music, listen to the shit, its all basically the same thing but slightly different. Anyone could jump on the bandwagon and make millions. For example, will smith. My guess was he was running low on millions, maybe had only like 50 million left, so he in about half an hour wrote down some shit, the next day went and recorded a song. He is a smart man. He listened to what was on the radio and what was popular, and copied but made it slightly different. Next thing you know he is millions of dollars richer, without doing diddly squat.

Mainstream music is SHIT music. It does a bad job at being music, and if you were even slightly musically literate, you would be able tosee its faults in an instant. And im not talking like just knowing a lot about music and listening to it a lot and knowing artists lives and shit, im talking musically literate, as in studied music theory and composition and shit, or are at least slightly aware of it.

Look, forget I even mentioned underground music. That's not what im talking about, I barely even listen to it. I dont know why you keep bringing it up, because it has nothing to do with what I am trying to say.

Why would I make a mainstream song at the moment? If I wanted to, I could easily write the song. If I had a deal, I could easily record the song and make some shit video. Then my record company would buy my song onto TV and the radio, and make sure it gets played a lot. Do you really think my song wouldnt be popular? Of course it would. It would be a smash hit. There would be those that hate it, but the majority would love it. I am in no way saying im skilled and I made a good song, so they would like it. I am saying that my song is similar to other songs that are popular, and has been pushed by the company into being played and whatever is played, people love.

What I am saying is mainstream music, musically fails as music. It sucks. It is not melodic, it is often out of the time its supposed to be in, it is repetetive, and simplistic. The FACT is that it IS NOT GOOD MUSIC. The beats are NOT good, the lyrics are NOT good, the melodies are NOT good.
