Quote from: Don Jacob on May 28, 2006, 04:31:57 AMnothing akon has released has had any sort of relvent impact on musicBeing the only mainstream R&B singer with rap lyrics right now, I think Akon's impact on music might show off in a year or earlier if/when more Reality R&B singers pop up in the mainstream.

i just addressed the songs he talked about tom You did? Where?1. when did i ever JUST mention lonely as proof of him ,being cheesy pop? That's the only song you use as "proof" hence: Quote from: Don Jacob on May 25, 2006, 08:56:15 PMQuote from: SGV on May 25, 2006, 04:53:35 PM what's Pop about Locked Up, Ghetto, Gangsta, Trouble, Snitch, etc. Let's see this. well when you sample a Bobby Vinton (an original tenny booper singer) track, go on TRL and TRY to appease 13 year old girls who go "woooooooooooooooo" every 2 seconds and give interviews to BOP, J17 , and other teeny bopper magazines who have the likes of hilary duff, chris brown , and fall out boy on the cover , you kind get that POP lableQuote from: Don Jacob on May 28, 2006, 04:31:57 AM2. are you saying that backstreet and nsync are the standard of pop music? bobby brown is considered a pop artist...him AND his wife, i don't need to say anything else. except bobby and whitney. The Pop you're talking about: TRL, Teen Mags etc. That's Nysnc and Backstreet Boys. I've never heard someone call B.Brown Pop. If anything, he has always got the stamp of R&B.3. uninformed? if you're going to make a statement like that , back it up by saying how. See above4. if you like ghetto and think it's a song you can bump til you're dead in your coffin....fine that's you're opinion but again like i said, nothing akon has released has had any sort of relvent impact on music, his album is probably a 3/5 album at best. he's got O classics under his belt and i havn't seen him do anything spectacular Key word is "I" You don't like him, of course you don't think he's made impact. It's a biased opinion on your part. One more Day>ghetto any day of the week"any man can step toe to toe, but only one on man can come out blow for blow" Once again, your opinion. A biased opinion.Explain how Akon can be Pop when he has tons of tracks that are NOTHING but Street Anthems. Address songs as Locked Up, Trouble, Never Gonna Get It, Gunshot, So Fly, etc. can qualify ANYONE as Pop. Don't bring nothing else up... Just address these songs. They make up 99% of Akon's music.

Looks like someone else posts without reading. Re-Read what Tom and I both posted. Why doesn't he address the AKON songs I'm listing. Who's the moron? That would be you. Nate never made I Like That more credible, in your eyes he did... But I don't know anyone else who feels that way. Hell, the fuckin' song was all over the Superbowl when it first came out during the commercials. If I'm not mistaken, it was the theme song for the commercial for Jake's place of work, McDonalds. How much more POP can you get? Fuck outta here.My taste is horrendous? So TechN9ne is horrendous? You must have that same horrendous taste. Chino XL is horrendous? Crooked I? Planet Asia? CMON MAN!!! You need the learn to differentiate being an idiot and being yourself. Those two qualities are really clashing, cuz they're just so similar. PeACe.
LMAO! How is his approach street when he's mostly known for tracks like "Lonely" and "Belly Dancer"?...I don't give a fuck if you like Akon. No matter what you say, I still find him whack overall as an artist and not comparable to Nate Dogg. That's my opinion. Stop getting all butt-hurt cuz you can never top me...

Stop getting all butt-hurt cuz you can never top me... actually if you ask most people I dont think they would think of akon as a pop artist though. There are some but I think a lot of hip hop heads wouldnt think o f him as a pop artist.
