I went back and read it and it still didn't make any sense. I know calling people cac and c00n is popular at coli right now but when do that in the next Young Thug thread instead. Not listened to any Macklemore songs except thrift shop and already knew then and there that it wasnt for me.

Exactly, pac is considered the greatest he made all around great music. He had high quality lyrics, high quality flow, high quality influence and everything. Same can be applied to Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix. Jimi Hendrix was cott damn on the guitarr, but hearing him mumble through hey joe isn't exactly the best thing about the song. Led Zeppelin, even though their lyrics can't be compared to 2pac, that would be crazy to suggest that, they are still in a rock way lyrically great. For example stairway to heaven contain some great poetry.

Breh, Jimi Hendrix died in 1970. Hendrix would have given Jimmy Page that work if he didn't die so young. All those British bands were biting off of American musicians, especially black musicians. Are you trying to give Jimmy Page credit for Led Zepplins vocals too? Tito was nice on the the guitar but MJ rocked the mic :comeon:

Robert Plant did great with the vocals. That's why I consider Led Zeppelin the greatest band. Their drummer John Bonham is the goat drummer, they had a great singer in Robert Plant and a great guitarist in Jimmy Page and John Jones was great at giving songs a depth.

what makes you say that Hendrix would've given Page the work? Not saying that he wouldn't have. Just wanna hear you explain your opinion.

John Bonham is actually the reason I can enjoy that era of Rock Music so much. His drums were on a different level. Check out Dazed and Confused and listen to the different tempos and how he use his feet and hands. Amazing stuff. And check out the solo version of Moby dikk :wow:

This too:





All that late 60's-70's British Rock stuff can go in the bushes. They can have the genre (Rock) but they aren't fukking with Jimi the Gawd.

That's crossing the line man.



If Clapton is a glorified tribute act, then so are hip hop producers

Im not the biggest fan but his work in the late 60s is pretty crazy.

:ld:
Ther are Hip Hop producers who don't sample or essentially
remix songs, so it wouldn't be accurate to say all Hip Hop producers are
"Tribute acts" in defense of Clapton.


How? Sampling isn't the same as copying chords. In fact, it's totally opposite in philosophy. The only people doing the latter is Pharrell and Tyler, The Creator.

Well it depends.
Some producers out here sample several bars out of the
music, to the point it's pretty much a glorified remix of a classic
song.
While Tyler, Pharrel, Ryan Leslie, Scott Storch etc.
Tend to use the building blocks of music (chords, melody etc.)
to make their own Hip Hop records without the burden of digging up
records to sample.


On topic :
Jimi Hendrix is :wow:
Haven't been playing him much lately :ld:
I might have to throw his work on the Ipod right quick.

Mackelmore will be seen as influential and quasi-political as Pac in the next 10 years especially with their stance on gay marriage. Pac is not considered the greatest because he had the best lyrical talent. He is considered the greatest because of how he used his talent to influence the people.

Oh and by the way...since you didn't understand...please refer to post #80 :heh:

:whoa: Not to black people, but to white liberal folk. Mackelmore will be seen as one of the musicians and the only one in hip hop that were pushed gay marriage in the genre. The momentum is already there so its not like he did a lot of work. Gay Marriage will be legalized in the US in the next 10 years the way things are going.

this thread took a big turn

first of all hendrix isn't the best. lets get that clear, his style on guitar is alien though. Jimmy page eats hendrix food. SRV >> any blues artist. Clapton is good but his style isn't really tearing it up on the guitar although he does that, but that's why dudes could always outdo him. his style is more performing songs well, he does a lot of good non bluesy rnb songs. Also feedback was done before hendrix because feedback is simply the outcome of playing with amps lol but he added it into the guitar playing which was alien.

Those old artists are dope but watch any performance with old and new its embarassing they can't even move there fingers fast enough even though they have been playing guitar for like 60 years. Many newer rock artists like page etc. came from folk guitar, spanish, flemenco etc. which is about 100 times harder than any blues song. That's when you started getting all this great rock.

And clapton isn't really racist, he said something liek they have to stop letting so many immigrants into britain. A british person can't make that statement? You would only disagree if you have no history or country to call your own.
