Thread: SellOuts...

  1. #1

    Default SellOuts...

    What bands/artists do you think are SellOuts and are only in the music buisness for money ?

    I think that Dizzy Rascal is one big SellOut, he started in the Grime Scene, then Left it and started appearing on Music shows ( Top Of The Pop ), changed his music to join in with the big crowd. And now, hes made a come back into the Grime Scene, but he aint got a nice reception. He had a clash with a Grime artist called Crazy Titch, who pretty much Slewed him. And thats wat you get for being a SellOut

    Anyone Else Know Any SellOuts ??????

    Linkin Park, definitely. Their first album was nice, but the rest of their stuff was crap.

    Britney Spears? Seriously, I hope she doesn't think that her music is good.

    And 70's punk is even better.

    The only band that I "liked" that sold out was Metallica. That was during my metal phase.

    britney isn't a sellout because she started in the po[o]p scene. metallica is a good example of a sellout. green day also. the thing with selling out is that it is extremely dificult to the artist to return to the scene where he/she/them started. oh, evanesence is also a sellout (i'm not a fan of theirs but i herad that they were on the underground goth scene, released an album and then released the album that most of us know).

    They're not a sell out, Evanescence, as they weren't an underground goth scene. They aren't goth and they were too unknown to even be underground.

    Their new album may be more a more mainstream rock then their older extra beautiful stuff, but it was never selling out. And they never had an album, they released EPs, but you're probably thinking of Origin, which is an EP that is almost an album, because of the large amount of songs on it.

    I don't really give a crap if a band sells out if they keep releasing good music. I really don't care what their lifestyle is like or why they make music. Good music is good music whether I agree with their motivations or the amount of exposure they have.

    I've never really liked Green Day, and their display at T In The Park (Not allowing their set be filmed- probably cause it's for a DVD) was appaling.
    Sell outs.
