5 ways to win a Grammy
The Grammy nominees have been announced
once again and this year's crop of awards look about as bogus as Rolling
Stone Magazine's picks for the best of the year. At least last year Santana
dominated over the boy bands. But this year isn't looking too promising,
despite the welcome absence of Rosie "I want my face on everything" O'Donnell.
With Eminem up for album of the year, Sisqo's "Thong Song" and the Baha
Men's "Who let the dog out" both nominated and Paul McCartney up for an
award in Alternative music, you have to wonder what in the hell has happened
to the music industry? Is it time to start putting chlorine in the gene
pool?
Top
5 ways to win a Grammy
5) Call yourself Sting, U2 or Paul Simon
(All three could put out an album of farm animal sounds and get nominated)
4) Lip sync (Milli Vanilla) or N Sync.
Ever wonder why they rhyme? Maybe it's because they are both scams!
3) Make a stupid song with dog barks in
it or sing about women's underwear (Baha Men and Sisqo)
2) Sing teen pop songs that will be forgotten
in a couple of years. Let's not forget that the song must be written by
someone else, you can not know how to play a musical instrument and you
learn all of your dance moves from a choreographer.
Number
one way to win a grammy
Be a white rapper whose music broaches
subjects like raping your mother, bashing homosexuals and disrespecting
women
To close let us hope that a future qualification
doesn't include rhyming nookie with cookie! -aG
Your
turn, what do you think?

The Grammy Awards are a farce. Everyone with a hit gets an award or nomination, wheather they deserve it or not. It is nothing but a meaningless popularity contest and an important propaganda event for the music industry. If I were ever nominated, I'd refuse to accept any of these bogus awards.
Posted by Shayn:
So...if they are taught how to dance by someone else, have their lyrics written by someone else, have their music played by someone else (or a computer), and all this AFTER they get their contract...HOW IS IT POSSIBLE FOR POP STARS TO GET A CONTRACT IN THE FIRST PLACE???

I just wanna know what xXgenXx listens to...
Posted by aG:
xXgenXx - first off Metallica and Pantera sound nothing alike. Secondly The pop music of the 50's and sixties was performed by real musicians not drum machines and computers so although some of it was cheesy it at least was composed my musicians, unlike the processed crap that passes for pop today. There are those of us who appreciate real musical talent and like to actually hear that in music, not some focus grouped computer generated rythem track being sung over by an equally focus grouped machine reprocessed voice that just so happens to come from a pretty face. I'm sorry you don't get it, that some of us actually look beyond the image when it comes to music. Yes the Beatles were a pop band in their day, that just goes to show you how much pop music has changed.
Posted by FlintTownDawg:
I agree completely. For xXgenXx: SHUT UP! You can blow off steam better by Showing of your new Abersnobie and Bitch T-shirt to your sorority sisters!
Posted by HOWDY-playing =):
I just think that everything is a big joke because no one does take it seriously, yeah you did get an award and you are on TV but what is that? That is just what some of the people think and half of the time when they do win something they are not worth it. I just think it is all fun and games. That is funny how to become a grammy winner, maybe someone will do some things like that but of course they are going to get talked about. HA HA
Posted by xXgenXx:
By the way.. how do you think Paul McCartney got his start? He was a POP STAR! The Beatles, remember? Duh. They were the biggest pop band around until they split. Most of today's greats started out as pop bands. Elvis was a pop star and he is considered a legend. I'm not exactly a pop fan, but I think its stupid to bash it. By bashing pop, it doesn't prove faith to your version of "real music." All you do is make yourself look like angry, jealous jerks with nothing better to do and give REAL music fans a bad rep. Like someone already said, its not the music, its the people that buy it. Pop=popular. Its not up to the people that make the record to change that, its up to the people that buy it.
Posted by xXgenXx:
I agree with each of you about how messed up the Grammys are, but seriously you guys. How can you sit and b!tch about how pop music isn't actually music at all and say that jacked up mosh bands are? At least you can understand the pop sh!t! After a while, if you play music like Pantera and Metallica over and over, it all runs together and sounds exactly the same. You call that musical talent? It doesn't take much talent to strum the same guitar riffs over and over while adding a new drum beat. Or vice versa. Give me a break. Simply because you can headbang to it, does not make it music or talent. When you can all actually pinpoint talent, then maybe you can b!tch about the lack-there-of in today's music. Until then, shut the hell up.

First, that you couldn't come up with much on Steely Dan.
Second, that the Dan got a bad rap from Dennis Miller and everyone else...
No, I'm *not* fifty, I *do* use Napster (hunt me down if you can!) and yes, my MP3 list
includes Beck, Radiohead, Nick Cave, and Tupac. But Steely Dan is still my favorite group.
Sorry if you missed them, but they provide one of the best sources of rock/jazz fusion out there...
and being old doesn't disqualify them. Yeah, "Aja" is a better album. But other than Beck's
nomination I didn't hear anything that could beat "Two Against Nature". I think all the negative buzz
was just jealousy that old guys could create so much great stuff.
Posted by Sisqo:
Well... GOOD IDEA, I think I will make a song with dog barks AND women underwears: Who let the thong out or the Bark's song !!! I will win Grammy awards next year... FO'SHO

LOL about the #5 reason -- they should make an album about a farm: "It was some beautiful hay..."
Posted by Sarah:
aG... You rock. I agree with every sentance 100%. It's such a shame that this happens to be the truth in our society. I agree with Radiohead... the Grammy's are just a way for the music industry (or shall I say.. record selling industry) to pat themselves on the back.
I love you man!
Posted by BUTCH:
Hey, gothy16. I made that record and it is quite intersting. Saying "I love you" 101 different ways was very challenging. But, you know what, I did it. And I'm all the better for it. Would you like to hear it?

I fukking love you.

Posted by old_rocker:
The Grammy's have alwayas been a joke. In 1968, the "best" songs nominated included "Hey Jude," Simon & Garfunkel's "Mrs Robinson," and some sappy, dribbling, country crossover song by a guy named Roger Miller that whined "God didn't make little green apples and it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime....and honey I miss you (boo hoo hoo) and I'm being goooooood", or something like that -- which is where that song belonged, lost somwhere in Indianapolis.
Guess what song won? (nope, it wasn't the Beatles, or Led Zeppelin, or....) I've never watched the grammy's since :)

Whats wrong with Paul mccartney geting nominated hes the greatest living rock star for sure. Is there really that much difference between rock and alletrnative
Posted by GothPrep16:
Was it fun, Butch? You think by saying that you've taken an effect, or by reading one of these posts it actually matters as to what I do? Try do accomplish something there big guy. Go make a recording of you saying "I love you" and play it back to yourself again and again.
Posted by Chris:
Bah, grammies are getting to be as bad as MTV. Bunch of weak-chested kids with girly voices selling themselves because they have no other musical talent and otherwise they'd be flippin burgers at thier local McDonalds, or attcked by a 3d grade mugger and beaten to death.
Limp Bizkit is the worst example of music on the planet...some retard named him the 27th sexiest man on the planet. WRONG WRONG WRONG.
Real rock stars on not "sexy" reserve that BS for N'sync, or whatever. Limp bizkit sold out, and now I go into record stores and but "chocolate starfish" which sounds like a raffi tape by the way, just so I can break them into pieces.
Posted by BUTCH:
more people need to say "I love you", gothprep16. Watch I'll say it...I love you.
Posted by doggydog:
hey greenmuse, ur band sucks
Posted by GothPrep16:
That's the totaly truth too. That's sad. Pop singers and boy bands only do cover songs and rip eachother off...You know, there's only so many ways to say "I love you". Some say we'll see Armageddon soon.
Posted by Murph:
Well, think about this; Rage Against the Machine is signed to a huge corporation (this is how they got on SNL and such) and THEY are the ones who took the songs off napster. After Rage heard about this they released free songs and videos on their website, and wrote to have the people banned from napster un-banned. Either way, you can still h4x03r your way back on... I did.
Posted by HATCHET WOUND:
Oh yeah....napster is gooooooooooooooooooood...not only does it let us get free music, and hear remixes...(forgot about TIMMAHY!!!) but it shows the true colors of some whiny lil biatches....(Metallica anyone?) Gee...like it wasn't evident before. What's next? my prediction: "The Papa Roach/ Rage against the machine Anti-Corporate-cop-killing tour....sponsored by microsoft with a generous grant by the local FEMA branch." Then you have Trent Reznor...Jesus christ...shut the hell up, get some prozac, take your already ridiculous paychecks...and shut up! Can't you buy enough therapy for 18.00$ a pop?! *beautiful...he whines about people ripping him off with napster...yet later that same year, he releases a cd with nothing more than REMIXES?!?! See, if you would get off the coke trent, you would realize that in the real world, we call that being a...um....HYPOCRYTE! One last note......Dr. Dre(another anti-napsterite) ....well suck my left nut, make the right one jealous, and throw em both in the salad shooter, but I think I speak for everyone when I say that Napster, if nothing else, has freed us from paying 18 bucks to hear how much coke he snorts. Thank you, and remember...Poon and orange flavored Tang...breakfast of champions. armageddondotcom@hotmail.com

Posted by Crumbs666&Xeddog666:
marshall is acually quite talented if u sit down and take the time to listen to his lyrics and their structure. And some of it is very funny!!surprise surprise surprise we are punk/metal/thrash heads!!!so to conclude we think Marshall fully deserves his grammy nomination espescially for "...you think i give a fukk about a grammy/half u critic cant even stomach me/let alone handle me.."

Who's the a$$hole that posted "yea" under my name?

I happen to like reading the battle between pop fans and real music fans. It's entertaining and show some of the stupidity of those people which in turn shows us why they listen to that trash.
Posted by the max:
yea
Posted by BUTCH:
actually my advice was to quit talking about it, but I understand what you're saying. You're right. I'm a hypocrite. I think we should petition antiMUSIC to ban all future posts relating to bubble gum pop music except for obituary posts involving any of their band members. All in favor post "yea"
Posted by the max:
Take your own advice...If you don't like what we say...don't fukking read it.
Posted by BUTCH:
YOU PEOPLE! For christ's sake get over the lamehood of modern music. Blow up your tv's. Throw away your papers. Turn off your radio's. Cut your phone wires! Move to the country and be hermits if you can't stand this slop. I will give you this, though, you are all MASTERS OF THE OBVIOUS! Everybody knows M+m is an idiot. And everybody with half a brain knows that the boybands and girl pop stars are maketed to kids. Let the kids have there fake, innocent fun. Who cares. I don't. bobrocks, kwisto, the one, Atom, the max, Kenny, etc... GET OVER IT, LET IT GO. The more you bitch about these people the more I have to read about it. And the more I have to read about it the more irritated I get at you people for not have the slightest bit of wisdom or refectivness in regards to pop clture (or shall I say unPop Culture). I recommend you all read Percy Shelly's "Hymn to Intelectual Beauty" -you'll see what I mean. And after you read that Cut your tounges out and sever your fingers so you can't talk or type and your posts will seace to exsist. And maybe, just maybe, maybe these bands/"artists"/scams will vanish and we can all live happily ever after. Jesus, man!
Posted by bobrocks:
ever notice how the big bands of the day, be they New Kids on the Block, Milli Vanilli, Nsync etc. are never on any of the greatest albums of all time lists. Critics make up those lists. Lemmings buy the records, but who are the spineless, record industry asskissers that hand out grammy nominations to these talentless puppets.
Posted by kwisto:
Mr Self Destruct, I remember that episode, that was funny as hell. Anyway, Grammy now celebrate all these full-of-cash producers instead of the artist, they know if they win a grammy they'll sell even more CD. Wake me when a REAL alternative band will be nominated in alternative category
Posted by Spark:
Why do people hate all these "false musicians"? I mean for Christs sake, they wouldnt even exsist if it werent for all those losers out there buying their trash. Everyone seems to whinge and complain about pop trash but how the hell do these bands get so popular? Dont beat up the bands, beat up the fools who support them, stay outside their motels, and then sue them.
Posted by the one:
Of all the albums put out this year, how the hell did emminem get BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR, he has about as much musical talent as a dead animal.

I think "the Simpsons" said it best when that teenager through Homer's grammy out the window and landed on some guy's head. Then the guy said "Don't throw your trash down here"! Did anyone see that episode?

The hell with all those fake artists. Boy bands are a koke. White guys tryin' to be tough are a joke. Just sing about the truth out there!
