That you openly support such a boring, manufactured artist shows me what I'm dealing with.
In regards to "talent" being "minimal"
A good half of the most famous artists ever weren't even close the most *talented*
Janet Jackson, Madonna, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Aguilera,etc etc etc were at least 70% song writing and producing combined with a "look"
MIA is no less talented than all of them chicks
And her schtick and angle are far more original, bitch shouts out Tamil Tigers on her records...none of them hoes do any of that, sorry
*swish*
>if you want fun, complete with big vocals over big beats, >Gaga is superior;
Gaga's music sounds like noise to me, and I like hip hop with a gully angle, and Gaga doesn't do that. M.I.A. does. Her music is gullier than any rapper out IMO...rappers are soft pussies who lie about being crack dealers and gang members
I don't give a fuck what kind of wealth MIA married into, she was raised as a refugee by a nigga who was on the run and fucked with the Tamil Tigers...that's more gully than any rapper who sells records....its true, not debatable.
*swish*
essentially Iovine's second attempt at >Madonna 2.0 after Mya flamed out, and with no end in sight.
Madonna isn't nearly as provocative, doesn't run with groups labeled officially as terrorists.
And Madonna's real talent is learning how to recruit homosexual artists in her circle...that's really what her fame is the result of, no hate, because I like her
*swish*
>if you want entertaining raps accompanied by futuristic walls >of sound, Nicki Minaj is superior; making a legitimate case >for being the second Wayne protege to eclipse Wayne's >starpower. Her upside is bigger than Mya's ever was, and she >hasn't even figured out who she is yet.
Minaj's schtick is already old. She can rap well, which is why I support her but she's trying the "saturate the market with myself" strategy (a good one) because she is going to fall VERY fast because she doesn't really care about anything and has a wildly superficial fan base
Her fall will be about as fast (or faster) than 50 Cent's
50 had the same problem: no REAL allegiance from fans. It was all superficial
M.I.A. has a real angle: the 3rd world shit, the guerrilla shit.....its a gimmick, all right but its a dope, effective one and is why she's different. Its far more sustaining.
>and, of course, if you like when your stars are actually every >bit as qualified for the praise that's heaped upon them, then >Beyonce is the original CGI-free Empire Strikes Back compared >to Mya's Phantom Menace.
Lulz
Beyonce.
Nigga, shut the fuck up.
>MIA is cut from the same cloth as Kid Cudi, Odd Future, Lana >Del Ray, Smith Westerns, that being an act that simply would >not have broken through if it weren't for the internet and the >hipster-driven blogosphere that's risen to prominence over the >last 10 or so years.
Lulz
Kid Cudi is from Cleveland and whines about being mixed and weird. He's got fantastic production/ear for beats but cannot rap a christmas gift
Odd Future are transforming into a clothing and iconography company because their music sucks (its clear at this point that their music has little to do with their fame at this point)
Awful comparisons
>There's so little substance there it's >mind numbing. Now, conversely, that same blogosphere has been >hugely influential in breaking acts like Arcade Fire, the >Black Keys, and Mumford and Sons. But MIA is not of this ilk.
LOL. What ilk?
