I agree, I think their music is great and I support everything FEM does as the first group of asian americans to be signed to a record label outside of Jin. And you can't tell me that theres a good reason that no asian americans are ever signed. | ||

It gets everyone pretty damn riled up. | ||

They have some potential but they really didn't pull it together that well...they were just out of breath during their songs from running around and shouting the whole time. yeah, i can believe that. because every single rapper/hip hop artist i've ever seen live from the black eyed peas, t pain, to lil wayne are all horrible live. some artists belong in the recording station and not on stage. lol | ||

 but here is my honest opinion + Show Spoiler + couldn't listen through either song, if that was played at any party i've ever been to people would be like what the fuck is this. i dont even understand how anyone could like it. and what the shit black eyed peas, t pain, lil wayne are NOT rappers they make POPular music rap is not pop if u call it that then stop ~ qtip i feel sorry for u man, you've been caught up in bad music. if you want some real rap and electronic music check these threads http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=87005 - hip hop http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=102735 - electronic yes both threads have some bad songs, but they got a lot of good ones too | ||

A lot of other famous artists can get away with crap like that because they have really solid beats but FEM just isn't up to par on either level. | ||

I personally could not party to 'real music' I'm pretty sure that was directed at me, so I'll respond to you. I did not mentioned "real music"... Learn to read? All I said was this was average generic electro hop. I wasn't too harsh with my judgement. Don't come on a message board and make a post askng for people's opinions if you are just going to bash people who disagree with you. I said I didn't like the music, and you launch a personal attack over it? Thats pretty pathetic. But atleast you could have made it a little more creative, the "oh i party unlike you nerd" is so fucking overdone it's not even funny any more. And you obviously don't even club or party very much, as these songs are so old I dont even know that many DJs who play it anymore (not that they ever did). There are also so many who do this kind of genre better and can get a club hyped up 10000x faster than FEM. PM me if you want recommendations. | ||

I'm sorry but the world does not revolve around you, especially my post. I wasn't responding to your post, hence the reason your post never had a reference to "real music," which should allow you to deduce that I was responding to your post. Please use some critical thinking skills and maybe some process of elimination here and there. I was responding to ZZ's first post. I don't even know why you are taking a comment that was not even made towards you so personally. And honestly. Was I wrong saying that the majority of teamliquid play games more often than party (LANs do not count  )??? Last time I checked, TL is a site that revolves around pro starcraft gaming. And I was just trying to get the people of TL more exposed to 'fun to listen to' club music. I never said FEM was the best. No. I said I was just hooked because their song is catchy and gets you going easily. I am sure there are better songs than those by FEM. Music is totally dependent on a person's point of view. All I'm trying to do is to make TL aware of different types of music, just like the guy a week ago put up that awesome jazz loop. I don't see what I am doing wrong here. I'm not trying to attack anyone or put anyone down. You just need to chill out. Take a breather. And realize that I don't care who you are, and did not respond to your post until this one. | ||

And the part that I'm quoting above could only be said by a complete queer. Sorry OP, I think you are a worthless piece of shit. | ||

They've done shows 2 times where I live and I missed them both times.  Sold out shows.Also, please don't say Fly like a G6 is better. There are way better songs. :[ Edit: Just thought I'd say, just because you don't like the music, doesn't mean it's garbage. Different people have different tastes. ;o Just because it's not something you like means it's automatically terrible and completely wrong. But I have a wide variety of music I like, so. =_='' | ||

You should check out the "what I am listening right now" thread...you will see that TLers have quite a diverse taste.

That's not what I was saying at all, I think you are reading a little too into my previous post. Personally I don't mind the song at all, kinda prefer that junk to the rest of the radio junk, if that makes sense.

Even within less-known music genres, people prefer the more popular group/artist of that genre (Armin Van Buuren etc.). I'll agree though there is an appeal to liking less-known music.

I "Like a G6" quite a lot. It's catchy, and the asian chick in the MV is smoking. Double glad they're getting some attention finally because I know they've been trying to make it in the game for awhile now and have put a lot of effort into advancing their music career. Sad that some people just want to bash on them and their life's work simply because they think their opinion is superior. | ||

i think FM is okay but honestly i feel like the track is quite decent but the lyrics were pretty much meaningless. probably only put lyrics in because they want radio play,but i like the electronic house style they're doing it's very catchy. i don't quite get why they're trying so hard to rap about meaningless shit, just release an instrumental version jeez. i still prefer better electronic artists though, swedish house mafia is quite good, i love deadmau5 and i like dnb quite a bit. calvin harris/justice are all very good and a good example of mainstream mixed into dnb is pendulum, i like them because i've had enough of bitches/cribs/drinking/clubbing in mainstream songs this isn't from a clubbing pov btw | ||
