Jared Leto was totally right about blogs, and its people like you who make him think that, get off the internet and get yourself some sunlight and exercise. you’ve got this all wrong, you’re totally clueless about this whole post, at least think about the fucktards you’ve missed out before you start ragging on good musicians.

I mean the girl came in as folk wanna be, and now she's a hip hop diva??? How the hell did that happen???<br/><br/>In regards to Dave Matthews. Yes the man is quite annoying, but you have to respect anyone that has toured every single summer for over ten years. At this point, he doesn't need to do it anymore, because he's got a butt load of money, so obviously the man loves to perform.<br/><br/>Whoever took R&B music from the brilliant art form it was through the early 80s to the overexaggerated singing over hip hop beats it is today needs to be placed on this list. Hip Hop not only ruined the rap art form, it definitely ruined R&B music. The classic R&B singers could actually sing, and didn't write these derivative sappy ass (baby I'm beggin) songs that play today. As well, the production actually consisted of (gasp) real bands not 2nd tier hip hop tracks. Listen to a Stevie Wonder album from the 70s and you'll know what I am talking about.

The aforementioned names are indeed very fucking annoying. it is safe to say that at the very least anyone anybody has mentioned in this thread will at the very least make honorable mention.

The former was once celebrated for being "different" and "in your face" and "rebellious" blah blah; now she sings the NFL's hype song, being the ultimate corporate peon. The latter came onto the music scene as an "alternative" and "organiz" type of ho; now, her latest single is a vapid R and B cut called "Promiscuous," produced by Timbaland. A pox on the both of them. I have a couple music biz hoes to nominate: Pink and Nelly Furtado.

Only thing I see wrong with it is that Dave Matthews would have been way higher on my list...or lower or at the top or whatver, you know what I mean. Very curious to see who comes in after him...ah suspense... Now that’s the weiss I know! Nice piece!
