[self] rock and hip hop

what happened to Metallica when they stepped out from the underground scene and went mainstream to become the rock legends that they are today?

their faithful and loyal fans spat at them. furious that they -Sold Out-

some people are 'over protective' of their favourite bands (underground/ not famous yet)...
the bands they fell in love with are supposed to be ' their ' bands,
no one should know about these bands (besides the underground scene in the music world).

its abit different from the 'hip hop' world where underground hip hop artists can be found/ heard through mixtape compilations . Hence get their big break if a producer is impressed.

i think we (hip hop fans) wants more of these underground artists to imerge.
the hip hop scene this year is boring and its as if its the " thug wannabe' era~.

nelly- one of my favourite rapper with unbeatable club hitz and has an aggresive flow like no other. his latest single - one of the more suithing and mellow songs from his album was playing on the radio last night.

it actually made me sick! because it was such a rip off of Bone Thugs n Harmony's style of music.
if anyone cares/ interested. here's a comparison... (download)/ well, its still rap... but every artists should stick with what makes them stand out and unique.
nelly's fly away vs bone thug's change the world

i get really annoyed when artists are not given the credits they deserve.
