i dont like the article because it assumes, incorrectly, that there is a meritocracy behind music sales and correspondingly, musical trends. Phonte's response hit the nail on the head when he said that "people are told what to like". if an LB song made its way onto the 10 song rotation of your local urban radio station, i guarantee people would have shown more enthusiasm. "if" being the key word, since LB obviously isn't making music right now which record companies would even push to get in the top ten. something that LB clearly understands themselves if u look at Phonte's response.
also, if rap fans wouldn't appreciate Mecca and the Soul brother now, that tells you more about the Record Execs than it does about the fans. again, they determine which songs get played on the radio. i'm not denying the appeal of summer hits like "its goin down", but its also easily replaceable. we'll see how these "hits" stand the test of time.

u a faggit ass white rap nerd 2 noz
NO. FUCKING. WAY.
Thats THAT dude!!!!!!!! holy shit!!!!!
It's not an article. It's a blog entry--just like Phonte's initial comment was.
If Noz were to refer to Phonte's recorded output as "doo-doo on a stick" in his next blog entry.
Come on now... I know I'm not the only strutter old enough to be bugging off of this.
Or maybe the old strutters are too tired to click on threads like this.....
yessir, true of most "hip hop/rap" thraeds these days
DB,
I want them to sic the white dude in their crew on the boy. Lyrically.
eek
now that I think of it, maybe it's someone I know actually
I'll ask him
Transient = L13?
L13 was in NYC, right?
makes me wonder though. did lb just not have enough dudes on stage with mikes?
and yes dizzy, there are others out there who get excited when there is a TRanSieNt spotting on the internets.
This is what people don't get.
I know blogging is some grey area but people really want to overblow blog entries into something akin to XXL putting out a cover story that says, "Fuck Little Brother!"
People really lack perspective.
Yes. As well as a basic ability to read:
Another thing that has annoyed the hell out of me in this brouhaha is all the internet-illiterates referring to "blog entries" as "blogs"--as if Noz had a blog wholly devoted to hating on Little Brother.
Yeah I was it yesterday and thought to myself "nahhhh..."
The fussiness displayed in the above exchange is simply outlandish.
The fassiness displayed in the above comment is simply outlandish.
brilliant.
I really don't care about this whole thing, but I thought this was funny.
2). a whole lot of self-loathing happening the internet this past week.
Yooooooooo? WHAT THE FUCK?
zing!
I couldn't get that image to load before... but now that I see it, that crop job is
i agree. also, if noz is not black, then its also suspect for him to speculate that black people don't like little brother and/or that LB isn't making music black people appreciate. you obviously photoshopped those pictures to make a point. if you wanna say LB has no fans, ok, but unless your an aficionado on what black people like and don't like, it seems like you should stay away from generalizations (and photoshopping). even if the pic was an all-white crowd, it wouldn't prove your suggestive point/inference.
Nonetheless, noz is on point.
