So, DQ- Do you hear the voices in your son's head, too? Or just the songs?

I don't have anyone's taste in music? That doesn't make sense. Study Kayne's sources and you will learn that this is not HIS music. He steals from many past sources and has a long list of guest vocalists. He either is or will be sued by one of the artists he ripped off without her permission (I can't remember the name). Mark my word. Five years from now, this album will be selling for less than $5 on ebay.

Hey, that's fine if you like him, but recognize why you like him: He samples other successful music heavily and employs numerous guests musicians. Hey, if it feeds his babies, why not, but I am not along for the ride.

You know, Jac, just once I would like to meet you in person!

The voices in my own head drive me nuts as well...

he might sample things from other artists, but so does everyone else, they basically remake the whole song, jessica simpson-boots are made for walking, Britney Spears-my perogative and I love rock'n rooll...just to name a few...the difference is he changes it and adds his flip on it, he has so many "political" statements in his songs, all of his songs try to make a point, the question is do you get the point?

Well, that's certainly news to a lot of real musicians who write and perform their own music. I don't think the question is whether I get the point. I can get the point--even appreciate it--and still not like the final product. Part of the reason for my dislike of his music is prejudice against people taking short cuts by borrowing recordings from others. People have accepted mediocrity.

if you are a big rap fan..and you compare his music to other rappers of today you would see that he is actually doing something.. all these other "rappers" rap about is their money, girls, wheels, their cars, their gold teeth, and drugs and other bs. anyway i do agree with you about the sampling of other songs, but most rap and other music, takes from artists in the past 9 times outa 10 Alien ant Farm-Annie if i could research it all most of the music of today is takin from other artists, the only genre of music that does less of this is country, and even then they take from other artists

He is a producer. He wrote some prose and read it into a microphone, got a bunch of musicians and vocalists involved, produced an album and then put his name on it. Isn't this what Quincy Jones did about 14 years ago with Back on the Block.

Sorry, I thought I was just discussing my opinion with you. I am not upset just friendly conversation, but I think we've exhausted it.
