In that case, I wonder how much money the authors actually make off the thing. Is it really worth it to even spend the time writing?Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑15 Sep 2017, 8:42pmCan't imagine I'll ever read it. It smells of one of those lazy bios that are churned out because there is a fan market available for them.
Yeah, I've wondered about those kinds of rock bios, which almost certainly sell more copies in the dollar bin. Maybe it's akin to scholarly work that may not sell well but is important for professional, in this case to segue into more magazine gigs that do pay.Kory wrote: ↑16 Sep 2017, 3:40pmIn that case, I wonder how much money the authors actually make off the thing.

Biography as portfolio? Not a terrible endeavor, but surely a waste of that much paper.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Sep 2017, 4:17pmYeah, I've wondered about those kinds of rock bios, which almost certainly sell more copies in the dollar bin.

This spam for a Filipino TV show appears to be lifted from a 2005 Pitchfork article titled 'Who is Mike Jones?'ShawnMeth wrote: ↑19 Feb 2018, 9:06ammaybe that "eff-you" should be "finger-flippin' and syrup-sippin'," as Jones raps in "Still Tippin'", the quietly blazin', violin-samplin' hit featuring Slim Thug and Paul Wall. Jones' verse on "Still Tippin'" is emblematic of Houston with its DJ Screw legacy and take-no-prisoners corporate creed, and the video is the best art film I've seen all year-- the sky is all purple, there are people rollin' everywhere!-- but the track sticks most to Slim Thugga's syrupy man-drawl, which sounds chopped and screwed without the assistance of a DJ. Jones doesn't mesmerize like S. Thugga, though his stumbled braying sounds oddly terrific over the oom-pah rhythms and screwed chorus on "Know What I'm Sayin'"; the "Nutcracker Suite"-alluding "Got it Sewed Up" (In l, Rapid Ric's Fistful of Dollars mixtape has the actual "Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy" sample); and the dubby yodelayheehoodling on "Cuttin'".
