antiGuy's Top 5
This Weeks | Previous
antiGUY gives his top 5 list of music stuff. Could be songs, people, a stupid trend... nothing is sacred to antiGUY


This Weeks Top 5
With the recent passing of the annual Grammy Awards it afforded me the opportunity to reflect on how pointless the whole things is. It reminds me a lot of High School. Granted I didn't hang out too much in High School, when I did show up on campus I was usually out in the parking lot having a smoke with friends. But I did witness enough there to see the correlation between High School and the Grammy Awards.  As a side note, I am grateful that we didn't have to put up with Rosie O'Donnel in school. With the Grammy awards this year we either had to put up with her or tune out, I did the later.  ok with that said lets have a look at the top 5. 

Top 5 ways the Grammy Awards are like High School

5. People are too preoccupied with what everyone else is wearing

4. You know it's supposed to be important but you just can't understand why.

3. The latest fads are the measurement that people are judged by, not by
merit or accomplishment

2. What is cool and what is not is defined by a small number of people who
are the self-proclaimed "in Crowd".

And the number one way that the Grammy Awards are like High School is:

They both are filled with people you won't remember in 10 years

Your turn, what do you think? 


They call you 
What do you think?:

Fan Speak:

Posted by hey mr. "antipop":
actually, because christina's dad was hispanic, it actually DOES mean she is hispanic. if you ask anyone with any commom sense, they will tell you.


Posted by anthony:
school is all on popularity. if your not in with it, no matter who you are or what you do, then you get treated like crap.


Posted by speaker of truths:
personally, I feel that the grammys, MTV music awards, rolling stone, vibe, spin, and the RNR hall of fame are travesties and should all burn in the fires of hell. At least the part of hell I'm not going.


Posted by why do you care what they call me? you don't even know "they". at least your not asking me for personal information like all those other crappy websites.:
with how tecnology is advancing today, a ten year old could hack into your computer. with that here comes my point: whose to say that, that same tecnology is not contributing to the world of evil( pop culture)? give me a microphone and a hi-tech karioke machine, and i can sould like chistina agularia, and i can sing worth crap.


Posted by antipop:
not only that, chrisitina even won a latin grammy, when she isnt even hispanic. just cause her dad is hispanic or 1/2 doesnt mean she is. my great gramma was black, but im white, it doesnt mean that im black.


Posted by SocialAnxietyMan:
I agree with The Goods. I mean god, Christina Aguilera a grammy winner! What is the world coming to?


Posted by The Goods:
I think the Grammy's are based on a popularity contest rather than the actual musical contributions. If you have one hit song and a great look, you beat someone who had 2 or 3 much better songs becuase you are the popular one at the moment. I hate award shows.


Posted by jesus:
Actually they both are filled with people you won't remember in 2 months.


confederatepride2000@yahoo.com
i think that just because were different we shoudnt be outcast and i also think our parents need to understan a little better too "f**k you preps stoners and punx rule"


sickuls
high school sucks


KUKL
CHRISTINA AGUILERA what the F**K is she all about, the grammys are the most boring ego boost requirement of all industry awards. I've NEVER seen anyone worth their salt singing or getting an award, they all need a big fat kick in the clacker.....as for BSB, brittney and all those other bubblegum pop 99 million different ways to say that she/he left me but I still love em 'singers' AMERICA WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??????


blackadder44
I have to agree with Oldskool child lower on the page with "pop belongs on the Disney Channel. I'm sick and tired of shat like Hoku and Hansen, especially because my sister watches disney a lot. I'm tired of Disney-backed bands.


old baby jesus
#1it's always the Popular people that get all the attention.#2everyone is judge by what they are wearing and how hot they are.#3your right, they are filled with people I won't remember in 10 years.#4they are both to long and to boring.#5There is always that misirible misunderstood brat there just to make a seen.


by my name
aw man, all i gotta say is that while at the grammys, i found britney backstage and asked her if she had sex....she didnt answer!! little b!tch...then i told her i was getting hard just looking at her, and she took me to the bathroom, locked the door, and took out my weiner and started to suck it all up!! then i turned her around and fukkd her!! face it.....all them ppl at the grammys get fukkd by the industry...andi am the industry


MasterOfPuppetz
I think the reason Rock never gets recognized is beacuase there fans think for themselves, My favorite band is Metallica, somebody down there likes Iggy Pop, and so on so forth, the Pop fans all love BSB and N'SYNC and dont give a Sh+T about anything else, they just like them cuase they think there cute or there friends like them so they think they have to like them to, unlike rock people who have divirse tastes


Andy@thespookykids.com
hey glamourous, what will you do when the labels on your clothes fall off?


swismasta
I think ANY award show is redudant in times like these. There is no possible way you can satisfy all of society in an hour. However, I whole heartedly agree with antiGUY, It has even progressed to the point where they cut the unpopawards being presented to facitate the hip new band and their 15 minutes of fame. If they want to do a show that is fair to all genres they should be peoples choice and conducted like an election . I mean lets face it , there are literally millions of little minions chanting for the backstreet boys and britney so you must be at least 16 years of age to vote. Anyhow I wont be conducting it so figure it from there. I have yet to see my man Iggy POP take anything from those people so why not lay it alone. long live the apathy club


fghfjdfssjhfghgfjk
All of you people sound retarded.


The Gurl Trend Forgot
Ur right, any way, the way i see this whole 'in crowd-you-a-reject- if-you- wear-the- wrong-shoes thing is that hey who gives a f**k? I mean, in 10 years, they'll probably all be divorced single motha's livinf in trailor parks digging for money so they can buy the latest Calvin Klien label. I really don't get them, i mean whats the piont i spending ur life tryin to fit in? why not be an out cast, its much more fun. it freaks the jerk off preps to know that, yes, there are people that don't like them. and get this, don't want to BE like them. the horror they must feel.... p.s IVAN I LOVE YOU


Melly Medic
..whats wrong with rosie? people say i sound like her...is there a such thing a voice transplant?! dear god...help me!


LightRage
I think the top 5 already speaks for itself: 5) People are too preoccupied with what everyone else is wearing.


Ell
This is SO true! especially with those f*cking boybands and those s*cky b*tches Christina and Britany being like those f*cking "cool kids" who call us f*cking freaks but who are really the f*cking freaks themselves! f*ck them!


HalfIrishHalfPuertorican
You wanna know what I think, I think that HIGH school is just that HIGH school f*ck everyone that gets in your face and smoke some pot!!!!!!! The grammy's are just as bad. They are like administrators........full of sh*t!!!!!!!!!!!1


SPURTHIGHED
YOU REALLY HIT HTE MARK WITH THAT LIST-I WOULD HOWEVER LIKE TO MENTION THAT,NO OFFENSE I LOVE SANTANA AND ALWAYS HAVE I GREW UP TO HIM-BUT WHY DOES IT TAKE HIM MAKING AN ALBUM WITH A BUNCH OF TEEN IDOLS FINALLY GET HIM SOME ACCLAIM? JUST PONDER THE THOUGHT-(SEE REASON #2)

THE SOUL ASSASIN
WHY DO THE GRAMMYS INCLUDE THESE BOYBAND BULL$#ITS AND THESE BRITNEY,AGUILERA BIT#!$ EVENTHOUGH CHRISTINA AGUILERA HAS A NICE PU$$y


SkittZ
I agree with OLD SKOOL CHILD {and koRn, of course}(scroll down). If people really like all that pop shiz-nit, which is probably mostly little girls and boys, they need to put all that kind of music on a station those little rugrats watch.....aka: DISNEY CHANNEL. fu**in A..............


THE GODDESS
HELLLLLL YEAH


Long live heavy metal
The grammys $ucked, $uck, and will $uck, bands like KISS only once a nominee, Black Sabbath once a winner, Led Zep never won, Megadeth losing a grammy with Tool for best heavy what is that krap


ME
I THINK THAT ENUFFZNUFF SHOULD WIN EVERTHING THEY ROCK LONG LIVE THE FREAKS WE HAIL YOU


Derek
I watch the Grammys to see good rock bands too,they just never show them. Oh and 'old school child', I think that was Metallica who said that not Korn.


IVAN VASMER
I wanted to see the great rock bands like Bush, Blink 182, Korn, Limp Biskit, etc, you know.


POP
Where's the good music?, the good bands were out of the grammy's.


ANARCHIST
Pop bands suk, if I ever saw BSB or NSYNC I'd take a shot g*n and $hoot them in the head if I saw 98' degrees I would $hoot them in the neck so there death would be slow and painful, I won't even say what I do Britteny or Christina( I'm a very violent person)


hells disciple
your dam@ right the grammys suc@ because they dont recognize true musicians take for example black sabbath this year they finally win a grammy for iron man(their first grammy ever) how can one of the most influential bands of all time go so long disrespected if i were ozzy, iommi, butler,or ward i would have said fuc$ you keep your piece of shi@ award


15YrOLD MetalFUkkhead
I'm sorry old school child, but rock doesn't exsist on MTv now, I think, All they show is watered-down jakked-off boy bands sh!t, and Disney channel dun play boy band stuff. Well who the fukk gives a sh!t, cuz the grammy's always suked and they dun give one to Pantera~!


old school child
"Rock is for MTV, pop music is for the Disney channel" -Korn


Crdeath27
To quote Rob Zombie "According to the Grammy's, music no longer exists". Enough Said.


Newdreamer
That is all soooh true. It's the bullies w/the money that get all the attention, like BSB (bu11 $h1t boys) and Brittney. Have you also noticed about high school and the grammys? The cool pll are either not even THERE wasting their time, or, thy are there just as long as they have to be to get out to something better. Oh, and, about Santana - the whole POINT of his songs are the guitar you m0r0n!! That's why he got a l0$er singer like Rob Thomas to sing for him! ;P


as8784
everyone is entitled to their opinion but if its negative they need to keep it to their self or share it with others who have the same opinion


as8784
i think people who don't like the way other people dress should just get the hell over it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Shena
The Grammy's were fair when Michael Jackson won a record 8 in one year, but Santana 8? The guy doesn't even sing the songs!! He's like the revered 10th grader who's been there for 3 years. You gotta give everything to him.


Adam
long live The Clash, dr. fever. they are the last successful band to really make a difference. i just wish Kurt hadn't shot himself and The Stone Roses hadn't broken up. they really had mass appeal and were still good.


Complimental Cynic
Amusing the way you fill your "comment" section with only the compliments. And oh, why am I not surprised? It never changes.


Jep
Damn Straight, You're right on!


kobe
i think you are so right they are pointless


Dead Angel
The Grammy Awards S#$%


tony
hey exsqueeze, what is it with all this fudgepacker stuff?


exsqueeez me
the biggest way the grammys are like high school is they both are full of fudgepackers


dr fever
i meant to say "GOOD MUSIC DIED", not, "COULD MUSIC DIED"--sorry bout the typo.


dr fever
adam, surely you aren't talking about todays music scene are you??? man, could music died when courtney love had kurt killed man......well, that and when New Kids on the Block, oops, I mean Backstreet Boys/N Sync/98 degrees/yada,yada yada made a comeback on the charts for some reason.... LONG LIVE INDEPENDENT, NON CORPORATE MUSIC BABY!!


punk
i think that all the jerks who think they are all cool s*** a** and that those of us getting picked on everyday are going to rule the world in 10 years


satan
i hate high school....dammit...::shoots self in head::


Adam
#1: i never go except to point and laugh at the idiocy of people who truly believe they have something to offer the world. those acts won't be forgotten in three years, they'll just be the object of scorn and criticism for a new generation of young adults who have finally grown out of somehow managing to enjoy bland, spiritless, over-produced and undermusical music.


Mindy
Hi Jesse!


T-bone
ha ha this is so true the BSB and Britney are like those jerkoff popular kids everyone hates


jewel
rather be a freak than fake like they are


Trend Hater
right on dude! no one will remember limp or BSB in 3 years.


Jesse
Hi mindy


dr fever
paul, limp bizkit falls into the catagory of people we won't remember in 10 years...or give a damn about for that matter!


PAUL ALFRED
IF FASHION COUNTS, LIMP BIZKIT'S IS THE COOLEST, AND THEY GOT THE RIGHT STUFF ON STAGE!!!


Tim
I never thought about this before but dude you are so right.


Uncooked Meat Prior To State Vector Collapse
you have to listen to britney spears CD's on the PA


Mindy
This is your funnies yet. It is sooo true.
