Barry Odonnell doesn't care about black people!



are you honestly going to buy that guys album?????? that dude is a fucking clown, i wish he would wear that BAPE hoodie every day and zip it all the way up over his face, so we didn't have to see him ever again.

I already warned Barry i had an infrared aimed at his dome, so here goes....

Kanye West is awful, and he should stop writing raps so people don't have to listen to him talk about how great/insecure/great he thinks he is. He is a Good producer, not great, but pretty damn good, and he should stick with that. He has joined a long list of producers who were not content sitting behind the boards and turntables, and felt it was important that he start rapping. I got news for you, it wasn't good when Alchemist, Pete Rock, and a bunch of other producers did it, and i'll admit Kanye is a better rapper than those two, but he's still not any good.

Back to the point, Kanye sucks, and so does Daft Punk, so when you combine the two, matters only get worse. This is not a "double negative" situation where these two shitty things make for some wonderful musical journey, it's just Kanye trying to say "like how hip I am, i sampled Daft Punk, I'm taking hip hop in a new direction. I am going to bridge the gap with the hipsters, who for some reason love to dance to shitty dirty south songs, by sampling this really cool electronic music".

If you want to hear a good sample from an alt. rock/electronic band, check out "Wordz of Wisdon pt.2" on 3rd Bass' "The Cactus Cee Dee", it's got a nice Depeche Mode sample in there, it's not super obvious for those who are not familiar with the Mode, but the track is the hot shit. That album doesn't get enough credit, never did, but it is really solid and has stood the test of time. If it wasn't for Eminem's early years, I might have to vote for MC Serch as the Best White Rapper of all time.

i hate to break it to you, but Daft Punk is alright at best, nothing that would make me think someone was cool for sampling them. and if you go through Eminem's early shit, he's got some serious gems, not to mention endless freestyles from the Wake Up Show that are way way better than 90% of other rappers written verses.
