He makes good music and I've been saying this for about 3yrs now. He's not some legend but when he goes to the Studio he gets it done.

Please do not respond unless you genuinely think it through.
1. They ask for attention. They crave it and their actions show it. This cannot be disputed.
2. They say ignorant things. They often do not wish to take responsibility for their own statements.
3. You do not seek attention and say ignorant things without getting a response. Basic law of cause and effect magnified by the power of social media.
4. You do not get to take on the martyr pose and pretend you are the victim of public persecution when you:
(a) See # 1 & # 2 above.
(b) Get paid hundreds of millions of dollars to play a game the world could get along without if it had to.
5. Getting paid handsomely does not give the public a license to abuse a celebrity, but it most certainly does not give the celebrity any greater value as a human being unless they make other contributions to the world by helping others, being a good father, etc.
6. However, these individuals think they are worth more to the planet than they are. When they place their value on the same scale of worth as a thousand victims of a terrorist attack or an American President they are asking for scrutinty. They already beg for attention so when they say godawful ignorant things they will get extra scrutiny, which leads me to ask:
7. How can anyone lay a trip on people who give these guys the treatment they invite unto themselves? They crave attention and think they are more important than they are. Then they repeatedly show themselves to be stupid and unworthy of attention so the result is they get negative attention. Hence, the concept of zipping it.
I know full well how rappers or toasters identify with and adopt historical figures as part of their personas. The journey from having nothing to fame and fortune often has a great deal to do identifying yourself as larger than life and striking a pose.
When an ignorant overpaid, self-important celebrity starts to cry like babies about negative attention they draw to themselves with their vanity and childishness, I have no sympathy for them.
But when they try to equate their situation with great tragedies how can any one of you question myself or anyone else publicly stating they should FK OFF?
I like it. We should grab a beer sometime.Clyde_Style wrote:Paeds, you could say right now I'm a man without a career. I was investing my own money and stopped due to the meltdown and a basic lack of desire to remain involved in the markets. I really don't enjoy it any longer. Now I'm downsizing my life to fit into a storage room before I leave Florida for good. I'll use some of my savings to buy a few years to dedicate myself to writing and performing and then if I don't have an income doing something I love I'll go back to swing trading later.
Life is short, might as well do something you really love while you have a chance. I'm not afraid of just making a living because I learned I can always find ways to remain self-employed and earn some money even if that involves living simply. I may travel in India for a bit and then I'll probably land in San Francisco which is good home for solo performers. I'm from NYC and have done that and I'd like to live in the Bay Area before I die. It's still an amazing place.

This post is unacceptable in every way.
Nothing funny about how Michael Jordan's father died, it was in fact a travesty. Then in the same breath to in a sense be wishing the same on Lebron's mother?
Honestly I think that deserves a banning right there.
