"old school Unpopular Music Opinions"


          

what are some unpopular music opinions you got on old school acts or acts you consider old school.

you know i feel the rolling stones are way overrated.

the Beatles could write and i give them that, however everything else was madd average.

Bob Dylan couldn't sing and sounds constipated.

Prince can't sing or dance and got a pass for alot of overratd material

James Brown never made a great studio album to match his live sets.

tom petty made the same song 90 different ways and got the nerve to sue sam smith over stay with me??

Lenny Hackvitz how he gets over is beyond me.

mistermaxxx R.Kelly, Michael Jackson,Stevie wonder,Rick James,Marvin Gaye,El Debarge, Barry WHite Lionel RIchie,Isleys EWF,Lady T.,Kid creole and coconuts,the crusaders,kc sunshine band,bee gees,jW,sd,NE,JB

Miami Heat, New York Yankees,buffalo bills

I dug Kool and the Gang before they added JT as lead vocalist. Their "Light of the worlds" album which contains the classic "Summer madness" is fierce.

Truthfully, LL Cool J ended it with Jack The Ripper, not Momma Said Knock You Out. Everything past Jack The Ripper was beating a dead horse for spins.

MC Hammer wasn't really that bad as an MC at first and could probably devastate 98% of the rappers on the charts right now in a true freestyle battle.

... So could Vanilla Ice.

MC Ren was NWA's best MC (Not counting The DOC 'cause wasn't a proper member of NWA)

...i can appreciate old school hip hop but anything dating before roughly around '87 i just can't listen to it in earnest.

...all of the jackson 5's remakes of other people's songs are better than the original. all of them.

I have two periods in hip hop in my book: Before Rakim and After Rakim. I can listen to BR stuff once in a while, and it's typically limited to the more electro-infused stuff like Siberian Nights, Push The Button, Boogie Down Bronx, and Reckless.

in fairness, he never sued. i think petty's people were like, "hey, really?" and smith's people were like, "oh shit, youre right! heres some money"

>Lenny Hackvitz how he gets over is beyond me.
ill admit hes probly the least-consistent artist who's GOOD stuff hits me the hardest - to the point that ill always give him a pass because his work that i DO love, i cant picture my life without.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Perhaps its a contextual thing, if you heard it back in the day when it came out, sorta like growing up eating chitlins vs. trying to eat them as an adult. I grew up listening to lots hiphop in my teen years I bought that first RUNDMC album when it came out, first Eric B and Rakim LP, Jazzy J's "Its yours", Grandmaster Flash, etc, etc

but Wutang is a group that I never found interesting.

I tried to listen to them today and it doesn't hit me at all..

Or is it more of what they represented than what they actually sounded like ? I don't know.

"Hooked on Your Love" for the "Sparkle" soundtrack are uniformly horrible. She caterwauls all over the record, giving nary a (fig) about a melody line, keeping in harmony with the backing vocals, nada.

They were trying to front on JB's ballads in the Lesson some time ago.

48. "lol"
In response to Reply # 28


          

If it wasn't so far back, I would. I tried to find it.
I just remember it was back when BBlock was posting regularly.
He made the post and was saying James couldn't sing because he had a "scratchy" voice.
Most of the post was in agreement. This place sometimes, man.

Did "Please Please Please", "Try Me", etc all just float out of people's consciousnesses at some point?

34. "i borderline hated 3rd Bass"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

....i thought they were seriously wack dudes with catchy songs dissing more popular acts

Run DMC was overrated

nobody was effing with Anita Baker in the 80's-mid 90's she was killing Whitney. Janet, Chaka, Patti, etc..... they all had dem HITS, but Anita was clearly turning in better overall ALBUMS

without folks like Teddy Riley and Babyface, R&B woulda probably died out in the 90's

SWV is better than EnVogue and TLC...yeah, yeah, i know, but they had more jams and albums...

for all their talent, EnVogue was kinda wack....

55. "For me it was about the early Vandross albums"
In response to Reply # 36


  

          

I always dug early Luther, back when Marcus Miller was arranging some of his music and playing bass. The albums " Forever, For Always, For Love" and his debut "Never Too Much" are the stand outs for me.

Yea, Thriller was always kinda meh to me. "Off the wall" IMO was the best album Michael ever released.

Like a grown man singing with children. That being said, Heartbreak is still one of my favorite group albums of the last few decades.

He really was too good for the rest of them. Unfortunately, he realized that.

Dennis Edwards "fit" better with the group.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

the 90s was when r&b started going down the shitter particularly where lyrics are concerned.
we over looked a lot of it bc singers still SANG back in them days but it was the beginning
of the end mainstream r&b

45. "Im a generation too late to love Prince"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

melodically speaking, I like a vast majority of what I've heard, and it's undeniable

but Im just not a part of the cult like my mom and uncles are

Im a huge Stevie Wonder fan and his time was before Prince, but I get his genius and fandom much more

Im not shitting on Prince at all, but I dont relate to the frenzy
