What do you guys think of Jay-Z's recent announcement?
Jay-Z has vowed to never use derogatory terms for women in his music again following the birth of his daughter, Blue Ivy Carter.
The rapper, who welcomed his first child with wife Beyoncé last weekend, has stated in a poem to celebrate the birth of baby Blue Ivy that he will drop the use of 'b*tch' - revealing that his degradation of women in his songs "has passed."
"Before I got in the game, made a change, and got rich/ I didn't think hard about using the word b*tch/ I rapped, I flipped it, I sold it, I lived it/ Now with my daughter in this world I curse those that give it. I never realized while on the fast track that I’d give riddance to the word bitch, to leave her innocence in tact."
The hip-hop icon continued:
"No man will degrade her, or call her name. I'm so focused on your future, the degradation has passed. I wish you wealth, health and insight. Forever young you may pass. Blue Ivy Carter, my angel."
I personally think of this as a start, but only that. He still has a lot of work to do. We see this with men a lot. They have a daughter and all of a sudden they don't like to see women degraded. There are two problems I see with this immediately.
One: Didn't his wife count as a woman who shouldn't be degraded? Or wasn't she "innocent" enough? He seemed to think it was all right for "non-innocent" women to be degraded.
And OK fine, it is good that he can see it from a different perspective now that he has a daughter and maybe he will extend this feeling to all women. I hope so. I hope he can continue to learn.
But the second problem is that it is still about HIM. It took him personally experiencing the feeling of "this is too close to me now and I don't want it to happen" in order for him to change.
Or as another anonymous commenter said on this blog,
I don't understand, Why does something dramatic have to happen in someone's life before they decide "Oh, yeah I gotta stop being this way because I don't want some one to mess with mine in the future."
Men should respect women not because the disrespect upsets men, but because it oppresses women. At least that is what I believe in cases like that.
However I still want to say that it is a good start and in my own opinion, if he continues to learn more about oppression and misogyny, then maybe he will come to realize this. I have hope.
We didn't hear a word like this from Gerard Way, Lindsey Way, or Frank Iero when they had daughters. Not one of them came forward and said "I never thought about how women were treated until I had a daughter, now I think I'll stop degrading them." So also in my opinion, Jay-Z is way ahead of them. MSI and MCR are still in the dark ages.
Also, I wish all of you a happy and healthy new year and the best of luck in 2012.

«Oldest ‹Older 1001 – 1200 of 1252 Newer› Newest»I don't see how anyone can defend a bill that is designed for no other reason than to humiliate and shame women who get abortions and the doctors who perform them. That is the only possible intent behind the proposed legislation in Tennessee.
It has even received criticism from many pro-life groups who feel it paints them as being mean spirited and vengeful.
what is this place?
Unless you are one, it's always considered in bad taste to use such a slur. MCR took criticism for using it, so should Jessicka.
Clearly MCR did not do their homework before using the term. LADYBOY is fine. It's not a slur, at all.
Jessicka has nothing to apologize for.
trolls all of you
It's good to read from someone who lives there and actually knows the social landscape there 8:00.
You're the troll 1:10.
Who cares about a group of minor musicians? What's happening politically with the proposed bills is far more important.
I think when this blog first started, most of us never though that our rights and freedoms would ever come into question. The climate in the US is scary right now, and in comparison to the proposed legislation(s) limiting our rights does make Gerard and Lindsey seem somewhat less important.
But, what we all need to remember is that misogyny is so ingrained in our society that it permeates everything. We need to continue to speak out whenever we see it. We have to fight. We really have no other choice.
*thought
Plus, fucked up the wording there, but I'm sure you get my meaning.
I see your point 2:00. I also agree it's very scary and I think it's implications are global. The climate in some parts of your country seems to be one of intolerance and control under the paternalistic guise of "care". And you can see this by some of the comments made by our conservative anon friends who seem to share this mentality.
Both sides are so unbelievably lame. Do you really care THAT much?
1:33 PM
No, you're the troll. "YOU ARE"
Can this get anymore childish?
Both sides of what?
Seriously, if you're capable of making a valid point about something, they why don't you do it?

Y'all, Hitrecord is taking a feminist view for its new Little Red Riding Hood book. And my written piece got sourced for it! :D
So proud of HR and JGL for doing this. ^_^ Thought you guys might like to see.

5:41 S;LFGHSDLFKHJ THAT IS SO COOL. The universe is so insane! That just makes me happy. :D
Oh, so more news on what JGL is doing! This is so great. He re-wrote Red Riding Hood from a feminist perspective (as I mentioned) and asked for more writings based on the essay thing I wrote. So I decided to add a few more things to the collab and see if anything stuck. I wrote a dialogue piece about victim-blaming, with Red getting questioned on what she was wearing, why she followed the wolf, etc. And I wrote a naughty poem about Red choosing the Wolf instead of the Huntsman, because the Huntsman was a "Nice Guy (TM)" and the Wolf really just wanted to, umm, eat her. ^_^;;
He picked BOTH of them up and said they would make really good short films! And he said the "eat me" poem was "fantastic and really sexy." :DDDDD
So, there are hundreds of feminist entries into the collab! And HR is taking up the mantle and publishing a book on feminism. :D I am so happyl

I just have to say, I passed a tabloid and swore, SWORE I saw Gerard Way on the cover of it and I was like, "WTF?"
Turns out it was the Kardashians' mom.
LMAO!
"Killjoys"...coming to a Creamfields near you!
Too funny!
You know what I think? Seeing pop-punk is dead in the water and people's ex-favorite band is apparently trying to make new sounds, I think they should try a new direction: a hip-hop or rap one.
We should start an on-line petition and call it the Please MCR make a hip hop/rap influenced album(Lindsey will love you more) petition.
Well the LA MSI show is next weekend. I wonder if any of Lindsey's friends will go along and support her? Maybe the ones who pretend they dislike violence against women, when really they promote people who propogate it...
And as for MCR, it's interesting how much time they spend bragging about how they're going to 'prove people wrong' (yet again) instead of just getting on with making their shitty music. Anyone would think Gerard was bitter about not being accepted into the music mainstream or something. It's nice to know he sees his fanbase as a 'barrier' to getting his pay check. Nice!

What is Gerard's obsession with being the underdog? He always seems so angry all the time. He doesn't like his fans, that much is obvious. He makes that clear with every interview he does. They (the fans) are just too dumb to realize it.
k
All of Lyndsey's friends who can be there will be there to support her. That's what friends do. Whether they agree with 100% or 50% of what you say, sing, record, or paint.
Pretty certain Mr Zoid & co will be there to support her.

He might be happier if he made a hip hop/rap influenced album.
latest in Lynz does stupid offensive shit: wearing a pedobear costume on stage. Meanwhile, a little girl still features regularly on the show.
Anybody see The Hunger Games over the weekend? It's not too hard to see where Gerard & co. got the idea for Danger Days. I hadn't read the books, but nearly everyone else I know has read them.

Excellent article on nymag.com regarding the GOP's War on Women.
I suggest everyone read it, for no other reason than the examples of Mitt Romney's actions towards women who were part of his church. Turns out he's just as anti-woman/anti-choice as Rick Santorum. He just doesn't want to talk about it in the press because he's afraid it will hurt his chances of becoming President (aka, the Mormon prophesied "White Horse").
P.S. I have to ask -- Kapunua, where do you stand on all of this? I notice you have been rather quiet here in regards to all the proposed legislation regarding a woman's right to choose.
A mother of four learned that she had a blood clot in her pelvis during a later, unexpected pregnancy, putting her own health and that of the fetus at risk. Romney visited the hospital where she “lay helpless, hurt, and frightened,” as she described it, only to tell her that “as your bishop, my concern is with the child.” The woman, who has recently identified herself as Carrel Hilton Sheldon, was enraged that he cared more about “the eight-week possibility” in her uterus than he did about her—and that he offered “judgment, criticism, prejudicial advice, and rejection” at a time when she needed support from spiritual leaders and friends.
This is very telling. If this is how this man views women, as baby-incubators first and foremost, he's definitely not someone I want in the White House.
Scary.

Gerard could change his name to Little GeeGee.
2:11 - I've been quiet here in general because it's such a pain to get to the latest comments anymore. :/ If you go to my Tumblr you'll see what my thoughts are on every last one of these legislations (which, there seem to be at least three new ones a day.) I keep track and reblog them all. (If you can wade through my pics of Tom Hardy and Dr. Who, because I do have some fun there, too. :) )
I'm also constantly up against a mega-conservative family (not my immediate family or the ones I'm close to--all of whom are deeply liberal--but unfortunately, Facebook keeps my extended family together too and they are hardcore christian right-wingers.)
Thanks for that link; it's another one I can put up on my Tumblr.

Kapunua, I have to ask, do you think Mayo is Brian Schechter? From reading past posts it does seems a possibility.
Forgive me Kapunua for putting you on the spot, but my curiosity about Mayo's identity is driving me insane >_<
Maybe you need to take a break from reading that blog 3:53.
Have fun at MSI's show tonight, Jessicka! Don't forget to sing along with the rape songs...
Jessicka's commenting on this blog? O_o
How tragic that Ray's wife is tweeting about her volunteer work at a charity which helps child victims of abuse. Maybe she can get Lindsey 'five year old panty shot' Way to help out. Or maybe Lindsey prefers to joke about children being raped or killed by natural disasters too much to care...
Don't shit on Toro's wife for trying to do something good. We WANT people to do good, remember? Insult anyone else, but leave the one's attempting to be and do better alone. Otherwise, you look like an asshole.
Who's talking shit about her? It's Lindsey that comment is aimed at. Maybe Ray's wife should pay more attention to who she calls her friends. Much like Jessicka.
Ray's wife will be going to see MSI today in LA. She's a total hypocrite, like Jessicka.
d
3:43, that doesn't put me on the spot, no worries. I never thought Mayo was Brian Schecter, because didn't he have some kind of falling out with the band (the kind that apparently anyone does when they have to put up with them for too long?) And at the time when I was reading/commenting on Mayo's blog, s/he (though probably he) was on tour with them. That's why I always thought it was like, someone who did their pyro or lights or something.
Grilled cheese
At least Ray's wife is doing something positive.
MCR + MSI + Rap/hip-hop album = match made in heaven
Whoever Mayo was, he was STOOPID
At least Ray's wife is doing something positive.
Well yes. She's just going to support someone who performs kiddie rape songs rather than sing them herself.

March 31, 2012 5:12 PM
Name of a new hip hop song 5:12?
do you think Mayo is Brian Schechter?
Who the fuck is Brian Schechtner? If any of your are talking about MCR's general manager he was with MCR throughout Project Rev plus. He was def with them when Mayo started the blog. I would think Mayo would have been more tour manager, stage manager or some sort of tech or roadie if you think that Mayo had anything to do with MCR at all. from what i've read Mayo had no idea who Gerard Way was. He never pretended to be someone he didn't know.
Who cares who Mayo was.
I do.
Then you're on the wrong blog 7:22. Go ask the people at Mayo's.
Some people thought maybe Mayo was Jake Raggio. He was MCR's stage manager for years. He also works with Slipknot, I think? I don't know. I think it's possible it was just a crazy fangirl who was maybe following the band around and knew what was going on with them. I never saw any real evidence that this person was an insider. None of the "proofs" people offer really amount to a hill of beans. I think Kapunua was just too close to the situation at the time to see that she was being duped right along with the rest of those people who hung on Mayo's every word, in hopes they could save him from the clutches of the "evil MSI", alcoholism, drug addiction, and ruin, which was what Mayo's was always about. In the beginning, anyway.
Anyone else think that Mayo is one of the Lovelies?
r
8:31 - it's possible. OTOH, one time, for giggles, I set up an "anti valentine" gift thing and directed Mayo over to it. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not any good at reading re-routed ISPs and such, but I set up a stat tracker (not the same one that everyone else used,) and then plugged Mayo's ISP into a Sam Spade program I had at the time. Apparently his hit came from wherever it was that their idiotic band was playing that night, but the original server was in NJ. I thought that was a little weird.
It could also easily have been some crazy fan who followed them around and knew what they were doing. That is also possible.
I will say that "SS" said something on the blog that I had said to him in person the night that I went to see his crappy Leathermouth band. (Man, if only I knew then what I know now. What a waste.) So quite possibly, it was him hitting that stat tracker.
Guess we will never know. :)

Who ever was behind the Mayo mask was just a massive attention seeker imo.
They had a chance from the beginning to tell everyone in no cryptic terms not to associate them with GW. He/she could have plainly said I am not blah blah instead they just continued with the stupidity to continue getting attention.

I wonder if Jessicka had an amazing time wathcing the kiddie rape song band? I bet she felt like a real feminist while listening to all those songs about 'bitches' and 'whores' on their knees.
I love how she's gone all silent on twitter to try and hide the fact she went along to see that racist sexist sideshow. She should be ashamed of herself!

Kapunua, I remember the anti-valentine and some of the other things early in the blog.
There were some fun times in the beginning, especially when the topic of the day didn't revolve around blockhead.

The good thing about this is that young kids might want to start producing their own tunes and we might hear from some incredible talent in the future.
can earn well over $1 million for a festival appearance and $10 million for a Las Vegas nightclub residency,
That is sad.
Is it real music or is it memorex on X?
It's pretty real to the people who create it and listen to it.
It's also like saying that punk rock/pop punk is only about screaming and being depressed. It's a stereotype that's untrue.
Punk rockers or any other rockers/bands express their emotions through their music: it's the same for the electronic music producers, and I'm not referring to the stuff you hear on the charts or those big massive festivals.
One of the responses to that article from the NYtimes
I think they woulda been better off calling it our "punk scene". There's a huge cult following of people going to basements, warehouses, and illegal areas to hear this music week in and week out. If Rock and Roll was the establishment, the electronic scene (or parts of it) is today's Punk
Funny, I was doing that over ten years ago.
Oh well 10:03, looks like it's only going to be old people and young kids that idolize men with small man parts that will be the ones going to "rock concerts".
:)
The electronic scene is nothing new. What's new is the name and popularity of the electronic scene. 5 years ago it was called house music.
I don't think it's today's rock n roll or punk. I think it's today's trend. Today's new wave..

Nope, five years ago it was still called electronic music and house is only one of the genres of many genres in the scene.
The only place you can say it's "new wave" is America as it's been very popular everywhere else in the world.
The media likes to call anything connected to electronic music as raves.
We always called them "dance parties".
11:49 just watched the vid! That's funny! Looks more like a school dance.

Instead of Deadmau5 it should be Andre 3000 they should collaborate with.
APRIL 6, 2012 12:14 AM,
Huh? New wave is an old term, scene and subgenre of rock.
New Wave is a subgenre of rock music that emerged in the mid to late 1970s alongside punk rock. The term at first generally was synonymous with punk rock before being considered a genre in its own right that incorporated aspects of electronic and experimental music, mod subculture, disco and 1960s pop music
There's nothing new about electronic music. Same product, different packaging. That's all.
The only place you can say it's "new wave" is America as it's been very popular everywhere else in the world.
Yeah. Ever since Steve Jobs introduced the ipod, imac, iphone, itunes and garageband to the everywhere else in the world. lulz Where would Deadmau5 be without Steve Jobs? Where would any DJ be without him? I can't think of one DJ who doesn't use Apple technology. Not one.
DJ's???
HA!!!
Sorry 5:53 is has been a popular form of alternative/underground music for the last twenty years or so in Europe and other parts of the world and constantly changes because of the advances in technology.
It's part of Steve Jobs' legacy and his ultimate curse. The last curse being that he wanted to do to literature what he did to music. Innovators should not destroy. Visionaries should never lose sight of the roads they've already traveled.
^it has
Only in America would they think Deadmau5=electronic music His style is okay, more like a gateway to electronic music like David Guetta for people unfamiliar with it.
You laugh at DJ's 5:58? Seriously? DJ's like DeadMau5? House producers like him?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadmau5
I would never consider him to be a musician in any way, shape or form but I wouldn't laugh at him or his DJing and house production talents.
Only Brits & other elitist Euros would confuse Americans with Canadians. Such elitist snobs. Never got over Canadians & Americans leaving the homeland.
He doesn't play musical instruments but he still composes and creates a form of music even if you don't personally think it's music yourself 6:17.
No 6:25, only Americans would associate a Canadian progressive house producer and his music as representative of a whole genre of music.
And he may DJ but essentially he is a producer...of music.
Another thing, elitism exists in all musical genres, like those "punks" who pluck 3 chords and scream into mic's and think it "music".

Duh. Where would the pop/rock industry be without Apple technology?
If you knew anything about how electronic music started and what technology made it evolve you would know it had nothing to do with Apple.

Wrong again! The music that started in the late '70's and early '80's in the synth pop wave was very different to the the music created after that era. For example: the creation of the Roland Alpha Juno in 1985 revolutionized the techno music scene after a music producer accidentally discovered it's whooshing sound and incorporated in a track that influenced other producers and started a whole new branch of electronic music.
Another thing people in the early breakbeat(hip hop) scene, paid BIG ATTENTION to the budding electronic music scene. Gary Numan was a huge influence in hip hop
6:25 has a big elitist chip on their shoulder.
They should work on their insecurities.
Gary Numan ♥
6:25 has a big elitist chip on their shoulder.
They sure do.
I luv Gary Numan too!
Music wouldn't be the same without these musicians, who were much maligned in their day.

Hey 6:25! have fun
All the kidz into it think they're so cool & original. It could be this decade's emo scene.
Did Forbes ever write about the emo scene?
Did any pop punk act sell 20,000 tickets in 9 minutes flat?
Does anyone really care, other than the fans of this music? I mean, Kings of Leon sold out Hyde Park two years ago (65,000 tickets) in less than five minutes. So what? Twilight sold a gazillion copies, but so what? It's still a pile of shit.
Very often, popularity = mediocrity. Just sayin'.
z
And mediocrity = unpopular or shit (depends on thee listener) music too.
Isn't the whole point of music to enjoy it? Different people enjoy different types of music. What you may think is great I may think is shit.
Sometimes people just want to hear stuff they makes them lose themselves in the music and forget about other things.
And face it it's a business, if a musician can't sell it they can't make a living from it, so it's VERY ELITIST(ha) to consider other forms of music shit just because it doesn't appeal to you.
I bet that half of those muso's that bitch about about mediocrity of their fellow musicians would love a slice of the popular action.
What about the pop/punk poops where getting signed to major labels when their music started becoming POPULAR???
I don't think it was for their creativity. Lol.
House music celebrates life.
Emo/punk music celebrates whining and rebellion.
Who cares?
People like what they like. You can't change someone's tastes by talking something up or down.
Like what you like and let others do the same.
Did you miss the point 7:10? It wasn't about changing someone's taste in music, it was how someone(3:55)was referring to mediocrity about particular styles, namely popular styles, of music.
It's all in the ear of the beholder.
It's kinda sweet seeing a man get all mushy about having a son.
