Is Real R&B Still Around?

<< < (8/8)

On The Edge of Insanity:
The thing with the Linkin Park situation is that people were still buying the singles even when it was like the sixth released from the same album. You would have thought that by about the fourth single anyone who was gonna buy their album would have bought it already, and therefore wouldn't need to buy the single as well.

dunno where u were staying, but in earth, Aaliyah was a decent artist like many others, but she wasnt running shit on the R&B tip...  seemed like a nice person, and its a damn shame what happened, but thats the truth

well then ure not one of the haters i described tho. i don't completly disagree with u on 50 havin been better before GRODT, cuz I like "Guess Who's Back" much more than GRODT too and also i was feelin him more as an MC back then. But the haters i described are now actin like 50's always been wack as fuck when they used to like him too back then, mainly cuz he's that famous now...that's what happens to many artists who blow up. if u say he's wastin his talent that's a point and u ain't even totally wrong IMO


--- Quote ---as far as linkin park goes does it really matter if they release singles from the same album? if they are good songs it really shouldnt matter what album it comes from. and its not like they were all from the same album at the same time...they had a few other songs they released from other peoples albums (like the X-Ecutioners "It's Goin Down")

I think u got me wrong there. i was sayin people who liked "Hybrid Theory" before it got that much recognition are now (ok well, that was a year ago or sumthin, not now actually) complainin bout songs released as singles/videos even though they're off "Hybrid Theory" too, which is stupid cuz they used to say it's a dope album. that's what i was tryin to say

^^ oh lol yeah i just misunderstood a little...but yeah its sad when people are like that...like seriously (im going to sound totally gay when i say this) i really dont care who it is...if i like it im going to listen to it...like today me and my girlfriend were watching TV and the movie Toy Story happened to be on the disney channel (dont deny it, you all know you felt that movie) and during a commercial a hilary duff music vid came on for some sad sappy ass song or something...and i really liked it. my point is if it sounds good to me then i could give a shit less if they sell 1 copy or a billion copies. the music doesnt change.

^^ word it's that simple, yet too many people are too dumb to get it lol
