Can I recommend some anger management classes for you?


Here's what I've said about his music:

1. It's dark
2. It's a midlife crisis
3. It's well produced



Can you separate how you treat the person from whether you like the music? There is a lot of music on here that I don't like. I don't agree with MOST of the lyrical content of what gets posted here, but I still see no reason to be disrespectful of the person who made it.

We are all made in the image of God. That's enough reason for me to treat people like they have some intrinsic value. Even YOU are redeemable, and indeed have been redeemed, if you will but accept it.

I've never implied you have to like his music. I'm not saying you have to like me or him either. But you won't find me hating on somebody based on a song they did, when it's obvious he's not really a gangster.

It's a mid-life fantasy. Not sure why you let a song get you so riled up in the first place.

Big deal?

Finally got around to looking at the original link. Rap is not my thing, doesn't matter who is doing it. Can't figure out how it continues to be popular. Most is not even danceable.

What completely bewilders me is this '52 year old jewish rapper'! The video linked has over 115000 views! His website (I googled) has littel content except a page of his videos on youtube, quite a few of them. I clicked on 1 at random and saw ithad over 1000 views.
Just how does this no-name guy get so many views?

100K hits means he's got something. Not my cup o tea but clearly it is reaching an audience.

A few relevant quotes. If the shoe fits...

"Personal insults are the last refuge of the intellectual coward."

"Rudeness is a weak persons imitation of strength"

“I imagine one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, they will be forced to deal with pain.”

"Hate consumes the hater."

Forgive them. :idea:

He simply bought them! ... http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/mu ... 77412.html

An otherwise obscure act who boasts a "superstars" quantity of views/hits on youtube and twiter etc, generally indicates pathetic desperation for an (artificially) enhanced image and status fueled by a fat trust fund etc.

He's about as gangster as my underwear.

You can recommend whatever you like, including church counseling and I'd ignore that as well. lol Do you want my recommendation for you? I bet not.

I don't see the issue here. If the music sucks, it is what it is.

Production means little to me..anything properly funded gets decent production including "mc bleeding guy".

Lyrics were in that? Well you must be ahead of me because I could barely understand any of it.

lol If were a reasonable fellow, I might concede something about intrinsic value for "mc peanut-butter face", but I am not reasonable. So you can throw that baby out with the bathwater and save that line for someone more willing to argue that point with you.

Oh do not preach to me, you are not a vessel of god. You just think you are. Gimme a break, mister.

The main problem that I have with it is that it's really weak and poorly written, but yet it's obvious someone dumped big $ into it.

Sh*t, if you are going to have a midlife crisis, just go buy a boat or take a long trip to England, but for god's sake do not pepper us with yet another BAD rap tune from an uninspired source covered in red paint.

Good god no..

And no one hates him, just his pathetic display at music.
Is he going to play POMPEI next?

I'd pay to throw eggs at him. Yes i would!!!.

I think I am starting to get the drift with you, Yobby. You want to champion the underdog regardless and that's admirable, but I am long past that noise.

It's really not that difficult to create something reasonable that has some intrinsic value to it, speaking of which. The person itself is a non-entity in that if it's music is reasonable on any level, that's fine. But the person itself doesn't really enter into the equation, just the product.

So when I see/hear utter bilge like this and someone obviously spent big $ on it, it pisses me off. What a giant waste of monies to make THAT into a video?

I hope he owns the company. That way he can pay for more YouTube hits.

But remember there is no place to hide on stage and all the hits in the entire land won't make up for being crappy.



Vinny, very astute of you to actually know you can buy hits on YOuTube.

I was talking about this horseshit last night and no one seemed to know anything. They actually think that every hit on YOu Tube is the real and genuine article. BWAHHAAAAAA no.

In a perfect world it would be. But this is far from perfect, as usual.

I'll give the guy credit for trying but that's as far as Mc liver spots is going with that tune..

For his sake, I hope that is the worst of his material(s).
Else he's in for a long, ugly day at some point.

1. Where can I get some gangster underwear?
2. We are all vessels of God, like it or not.
3. I'm nearing the end of a long trip to England....literally.

In my email this morning, spam from this place: http://www.hitmusicfans.com/ $100 for 75000 hits, $150 for 150000 hits. :roll:

Did you guys watch this all the way through... :shock:
Sorry MC Yo Wassup...that's some really bad acting. the production is ok but not that good. NP has done as good and even better production with his phone camera imo. And the music production is as typical as it gets. Not much to it. Many artists don't even create the beat they just buy them.
I have a friend and also my son make beats and sell them to folks that rap.

So you got mugged, turned into a gangsta and went on a killing spree... :D .... ok. :roll: You had a good message in there about protecting your family but it gets lost. If this is really you... ok. Be yourself.
You do look out of place rapping in your 50's with grey hair and all.

And as some have said what's the point in buying YT hits. Your music is what it is. In the end that's all you have to stand on.
Not hating on you but as they say "keep it real brah!"
Good luck to you.

A fresh pack of your own Underoos?
May I suggest "Aquaman" for you...for obvious reasons. lol

If you wake up calling for a whale, it's a dream. lol (I hope)

Not all of us are vessels of god. Sorry, I don't go for that one.
Some obviously do no have their head in that game, as sad as it is.

Yes you are on a trip. Why do you feel like you're having a mid-life crisis?
Have a snickers bar, you whine like a bitch when you're hungry. LOL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA7-31Cxc2I

Are you Betty White or Abe Vigoda? lol (poke)

But seriously Yod, you don't seem like the mid life crisis type..



If anyone buys YT hits, that should be a sin among musicians..a boldfaced lie.

I don't think I'm having a mid-life crisis....but I am at the end of a long trip to England. Started in Germany, now going to Poland to record a new C.D.

Anyone that has to buy fake likes is a loser, and since this was a drive-by, I'm ready to pile on with the rest of you. We gave him every chance to be sociable. A real gangster would have mixed it up, but guess he's just a prankster.
