I'm not even a rap fan*, but even I dig 358!
*Remember when "not being a fan of something" meant "it's good but not generally my thing" like I mean it, as opposed to "I think it's shite"?
By the way, asking as a guy in a tiny English town with a shit reputation: How famous would you rate yourself in Canada, Dan? Your vid for Kama Sutra looks more pro than most of the crap on the BBC!
RObbie NekOda,
Thanks my man. I appreciate you feelin' like my shit ain't "shite".
To be honest bro, my 'famousity' is all relative. In some circles, I'm highly regarded as one of Canada's best emcees (a compliment I don't take lightly) and in others I'm completely unheard of.
I've experienced a lot of exposure on TV through my music videos over the years but a lot less lately. That kinda goes for everyone I guess.
Ironically, videos like "Kama Sutra" were NOT accepted by the same music station that used to play my videos but it has been viewed over 5 million times on YouTube.
So I guess it all depends who you ask. So thanks for asking!
Thanks for the info! *Thumbs up*
One thing I like, I mean really like is what's happened to me over the past year, something Tha O Show has played a part in. Basically, under a year ago I was one of those heavy metal dickheads... you know the type. The kind that don't give good songs a chance because they don't have guitar solos in, or because the songs are too popular, all that stuff. Wearing baggy t-shirts with band names on. Hell, I've even owned a couple of pointy guitars in the past.
And I have to admit I did use the old cliche "rap is crap" phrase (so did Roddy Piper in all fairness), which is the second most embarrassing thing to say these days, the first being "You do know wrestling is fake?". But that's for another article.
Some months ago, I realized I was miserable. Actually medically depressed. Not only because I was limiting my choice of music ("I know Prisoner of your Eyes is depressing, but it's by Rob "Ten Jackets" Halford, it MUST be good!"), but because the metal scene was full of aforementioned pricks, me included.
And yet I realized that there were songs, non-metal songs on the radio that I liked that I'd heard for years but not acknowledged. Cool stuff, cheesy stuff, popular stuff.
All this time, I was listening to Tha O Show! And in it, of course, is the intro song, the very entertaining freestyles, and of course the music commercials. And I've built up a great respect for hiphop out of that, from the skill involved, to the variation and originality. I was put off way back when because at the time it all sounded, to me, like "lowriders, gangsters, corvoisier, etc etc etc". But it isn't, a lot is genuine, heartfelt stuff. Which, again, educated me on one of the biggest hiphop subjects; racism. Despite my remote-English-townitude, I'm an Obama supporter.
I'm learning things.
It's amazing how my mp3 player has gone from Megadeth, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest to John Parr, Lionel Richie and Dan-E-O. *laughs*
Good times. Because in the end, that's what matters, not how fast you can jerk off an electric guitar! And driving around in the blazing sun (Come on Summer!) to 358 is awesome.
And don't get me started on how Secta De Uno takes rap-rock and converts it from a Limp Bizkit fad into a legitimate genre.
Anyhow, sorry for that autobiography, but it's something I've been wanting to tell the world for ages. But if this ain't a fantastic recommendation for anyone out there who's unsure, I don't know what is!
BUY OBLIVION (SPEAK NO EVIL)!
Rob Nekoda,
Holy shit dude! Your comment just might be the biggest compliment I've ever received.
It's one thing to accumulate new fans...it's another to turn someone on to "real" hip-hop and have that person gain an appreciation for an artform that has pretty much shaped my life.
That's fuckin' awesome bro, it's an honour to have you as an O-ster.
BIG rispek...now let me go before, muhfuggaz start swingin' gay jokes our way!
