I wonder if Fred Durst is pissed he’s had to drop the iconic red hat look in the MAGA era?
i love that before he started the song he said, 'i'll never do this song justice.' far beyond his time. i have no idea what fred durst is doing now.. please lmk if you know? but if you are covering this song, you never give the mic to the crowd. the point is the people never get to speak. you clutch that mic and you scream ' now your under controooooooooolllllllllllllll'
edit: fun fact: killing in the name of and soundgarden's blow up the outside world were banned from the airwaves following 9/11; no song that was against authoritarianism was allowed on the radio during the first few years of the 'war.' imagine that. fuckin' a man
More curiously Electric Six’s ‘Gay Bar’ had the lines ‘Start a war, start a nuclear war’ censored on the radio over here, despite the line not really taking place in a song with a particularly anti-authority message
it is ridiculous that they censor us little people while the people with the big bombs are the ones dropping them idk the laws over there. nor apparently do i know the laws over here. what the hell could you listen to in ratm that would radicalize you into a fascist? maybe just become more aware of what the overseers want. and it rings true even more now. very sus
My memory may be faulty but I always was under the impression it was more stations themselves doing it to not offend the wave of patriotic fervour but I might be remembering wrong.
The kind of people who use the word snowflake but can’t handle even the most minute criticism of their country would be moaning no doubt.
who do you think runs stations? some of those who burn crosses????????? OOOOOOOO WAHAHAHAAAAAA
You may want to take a look at Scroobius Pip. He has a pretty unique style of hiphop. He is also quite open about the issues he had with a stutter as he grew up (and still has to a much lesser degree), and how he learned to work around it. I have heard numerous methodologies to overcoming it, and the most successful I have seen have to do with tackling it rhytmically.
(the struggle video) (discussion on having a stutter).
Btw. I heard Soundgarden's song you referred to plenty around that time (I am old enough to remember those times very well), and I lived in one of the most conservative places in the country.

Perhaps a hypothetical that rap and metal can co-exist perhaps?
no i think it just sounds cool. the cover art also doesn't make sense but it looks cool. sometimes we have to shut off our grey matter and just let the smoothness take over. edit: i'm still upset you haven't acknowledged the bad words clip i posted. the movie is an absolute gem and this scene couldn't be more perfect xD no pressure or anything........
Belatedly but yes a solid clip! Perhaps a full film I need to check out that one
It was also my first album. I remember I won some money during phyics olympiad and decided to get an album, still remember how I saw it in the corner and on the right was Eminem, who I had already heard, and these guys. It was a pirate cassette with Hybrid spelled as Hibrid, lol. I think I still can sing along all the songs from that album.
A little wall of music: LP;s Meteora, SOAD and Korn as well. In the white I copied from a friend another "album" of Linkin Park, which turned out to be a mix of Chester's time in Grey Daze and pre-Hybrid Theory songs, haha.
