Lol at your signature having an ICP video in it.
M.IA. should know she fucked up when people that have heard the ICP Miracle song think her's is worse.
wow. this is an epic example of "missing the point".
but, still ICP>>>>>>>>MIA.
I get that the signature is meant to be a joke, since people have been clowning that ICP video all over youtube..
I was just pointing out that he's obviously heard ICP's Miracles song, since it's in his sig, but wrote "haven't heard a shittier song in a long ass time".. That is just a low blow to M.I.A.
I think ICP <<<<< Everything, but at least they are good for a laugh.

Strangely enough you're wrong. There is a lot of juggalos on this board. Hatchet Man Records 4 LYFE!

i'm more on the side of
the LOLZ bought on unintentionally by ICP>>>>any real music MIA has ever made.
But i also REALLY think she sucks.
I am relieved you knew that sig was a joke though.
Unity holds no allure for Maya ג she thrives on conflict, real or imagined. גI kind of want to be an outsider,ג she said, eating a truffle-flavored French fry. גI donגt want to make the same music, sing about the same stuff, talk about the same things. If that makes me a terrorist, then Iגm a terrorist.ג
(warning: full article is massive)
still like some of her tunes (and would still definitely do FTR) but the thought of her and Rusko and co living in a big posho rah-rah glorified student house seriously makes me wish terrorists HAD invaded it and murdered them all
also truffle flavoured french fries sound fuckin rad
Maya seemed to be going for a combination of sexy and militaristic. She showed the girls her fabric ideas on her computer, and they were amenable. גNike is the uniform for kids all over the world,ג Maya said for no apparent reason. גAnd African design has been killed by Nike. Africans no longer want to wear their own designs.ג The designers said they thought that was terrible. גThe best sportswear is on Blackwater operatives,ג Maya continued, referring to the agents who were clandestine guns for hire in Iraq. The designers nodded, but they clearly had no idea what she was talking about. גI want to have a uniform like theirs.ג
The oddity of using a garment linked to mercenaries to convey a very different message seemed to elude Maya. As we got ready to leave, she became surprisingly strict with the designers. You are part of my team, she seemed to be saying. And, as part of the team, you must live up to my vision. גI want everything on this album to be a collaboration,ג Maya said. The women looked both proud and nervous. They were now recruited.

SOOO on point.
She kind of reminds me of Missy Eliot in that she's wildly untalented but has somehow surrounded herself with a gang of very talented to reasonably talented people (assuming most of her writing/production track record is more Timbaland than her, which is a safe assumption probably).

Pretty sure Missy's writing and production credits on her own songs and numerous R&B acts are extensive. Also, Missy Elliot is a dope rapper, stylistically. she can flow better than most of the artists mentioned on page 1 of M2C at least.
M.I.A. On the other hand has no discernible talent other than managing to be appropriately iconic to a generation that fervently believes that being iconic and having "swag" is always more notable than possessing talent or intelligence.
^^^ yeah. was pretty sure I would get shit for that comparison.
I mostly remember Missy Elliot for the production she got from Timbaland and her videos/overall aesthetic (for lack of a better term). M.I.A. is pretty similar that way.
I thought I remembered most of Missy Elliot's writing/producing credits as being co-credited with Timbaland, but just checked and apparently that wasn't the case.
So yeah, shitty comparison, but M.I.A. is pretty talentless. When she came out she was the darling of the London fashion scene while also branding herself with the whole third world Marxism of the oppressed schtick. It's a wildly surface level and ultimately boring critique to make at this point, but still kind of a tipoff.
