Just say if you were a popular music artist and the way you're able to stay so popular, besides your good singing voice, is using so much profanity and/or saying negative things in your lyrics, would you continue? This is considering that you make many millions of dollars from it, with a large fan base, yet your music adverse affects society (mostly among the younger crowd) with the negative lyrics you include in your music, since you are popular, like Eminem?

They rose to the perfect of the punk international, which became the subsequent massive type after the recent rock and roll communities have been merely sell outs with extraordinarily faces and hair. and then they challenged what punk, nay, ANY many times occurring song rather must be with 'London Calling'. They sorta killed rock and roll and punk (sorta kinda), yet rather unfold out the entire industry, and confirmed them that a team attempting new issues ought to nonetheless sell. I mean, The Beatles and Dylan are greater appropriate, however the conflict made greater of a contribution to the entire song scene, fantastically on the instant's, the place bands are allowed to exist below the shadows and make despite style of checklist they like. If it wasn't for The conflict and 'London Calling', they in all probability could no longer do this as properly as they do on the instant. (Radiohead additionally kinda invented the entire indie scene, yet they are no longer rather a classic band yet.) Their slick sort of brit rock has inspired many significant artists which incorporate coldplay, travis and snow patrol (all great bands). yet Radiohead is particular in its very own way and has greater than a number of great albums to diminish back it up, the perfect of them being the bends and ok laptop, with Hail to the Thief coming in a special 0.33. in all probability the perfect Radiohead song is highway Spirit (Fade Out) on the Bends; it has a great, user-friendly riff for the period of the song and Thom Yorke's vocals are stunning. different great songs incorporate faux Plastic timber, extreme and Dry, Airbag, Paranoid Android, enable Down, Karma Police, No Surprises, Knives Out, 2+2=5 (The Lukewarm), There There (The Boney King of Nowhere), and The national Anthem.

I would use my popularity to explore a little, more like exploit my popularity. I already have a fan base, they love me, I'll give them a little of the real me, and see if they''l like it. I'd just add some tracks in my album that are not so profane and see how they'll like it, and if it goes well, I'll gradually wane down the profanity quotient in my subsequent albums.

Well....it depends on your own set of moral standards. Sadly, most people today would sell their souls to the devil if they could make millions of dollars. Personally, if I knew I was damaging society with those lyrics and glamorizing the gang culture (which I believe is damaging society), I wouldn't be involved in that in the first place.

I don't think you need to use profanity in lyrics- There's more profound ways of getting your point across.
I would write music & lyrics that spook to people.
I don't feel you need F**k this or F**k that in a song to have a quality song.

do you really think the only reason they stay popular are the hoardes of swearing-fans that buy records all the time? people buy the records you guys make big deals about because you make such a big deal about it. you guys are free advertising for all the crap you hate the most. thats friggin brilliant!

If you are an artist, then you play ( or sing) what you want to hear, if people like it, they will buy it. If you sell out your personality then you are no longer a creative artist.Just a presenter.

Of course! there is a market for anything. You are in the business of making money and have fun doing it. You are not a charity or the ethics police.
