for some reason, i really felt like downloading some regular/commercial rock and hip-hop songs, so i decided to try consulting the billboard top 200 chart for some inspiration. i mean, i knew that the billboard was far from being the best place to look for good music, but it was way more full of crap than i expected. commercial music is at its worst right now imo... i stopped checking at 100, and then threw up. 3-4 times. |

every once in a while I go to billboard.com just to see what crap people listen to and whats selling and it truly is sad. you see dj shadow's private press on the top 200 for about 2 week and then its gone completely off the list. and the thing is, this albums is probably done selling majorly. all the people who have bought it already are the only people that will be buying it, granted a few people still have to get it but good albums often do not make a dent in the charts at all. I look through all 200 on there and 99.9% is crap. and when you click on independent or electronic, most of its not even independent or electronic at all. I 've seen britney spears under independent. mainstream music is at an alltime low. |

If you want quick access to ridiculously crappy music, just turn the radio on. |

actually, don't count shadow out, MCA is going to push his album big time and he has a music video coming out next directed by a big time hong kong movie director and starring an actor from crouching tiger, hidden dragon. the song is "6 days" which a lot of people believe could be very big for shadow. |

I mean, shadow could become a little more well known but I just can't see this happening. I could be wrong of course but it just doesn;t seem like it will happen. |

I don't even like that song too much either, I dont know why they chose that one in the first place. the singer sounds like all the crap house singers. i just dont like the singing style but its an alright song. |

Dirty Vegas is the number one selling "electronic" album. Bullshit, Dirty Vegas is pop right down to the last note. And then at #2 we have Moby's 18. Still not electronic music. At #3 we have something worthy of being an electronic album, DJ Shadow's Private press, I say fuck the first 2, lets ditch em and bump everything up to spots. |

I'm not totally against Billboard, cause I think there is some good music that does sell... however, the majority of it is crap... I still flick on the radio when I'm driving sometimes to see what's on, and sometimes they do play good songs (imo)... but yeah, the majority of it sucks!!! |
