Advantages: production, lyricism. Disadvantages: some commerical crappy gimmicky type tracks.
...of knowledge he gained from his father. What's more he states that we should utilize our time on earth as best we can. This song proves to be quite deep and thought provoking, J goes onto delve into how record labels brain wash the market by oversaturating it with crap gimmicky songs.
2.)Be no Slave 2:50
As far as the beat goes, and old soul sample proves the perfect backdrop as this short intro brings a double meaning with its title. There is obviously more then bragging rights on J's mind. After a lot of label (record company) trouble, aswell as a consumer market that is only looking for ringtone downloads J refuses to be a slave. He promises to 'man up in ways boys aint prepared to' and has dumb rappers in his scope with this track promising nothing less then the purest form of hip hop.

Advantages: they are the best band Disadvantages: not for much longer
...This is not the best album in the world but the thing that i am thinking is - Whathappens now Liam and Patsy have split Noel wont tour abroad and they just dont seem to be getting along. I am going seeing them at Bolton on saturday and i just hope that they will all be there and they wont argue. It just wont be the same because Oasis are not who they used to be and i dont think they ever will be. Personally i think that this will be there last ever tour and i think that the only time they will play is at festivals. I can see then spliting in the next 5 years....

Advantages: Some of their songs are brilliant Disadvantages: They're a bunch of twats
...It really pains me to say this. By all accounts i should - and kind of do - HATE Blink 182. But i can't get away from the fact that "dumpweed", "dysentary gary", "All The Small Things" and "Going Away To College" (either that or "Adam's Song", can't remember which) are actually really, really good songs. Light-hearted and with amazing melodies - especially the "way too late to plaaaaaaaaay" bit on "dumpweed". Of course the rest of the tracks annoy the living shit out of me but... oh god, what is happening to me?! The more i listen to this album the more i like it... arrrrghh... someone kill me... please!
Painfully irresistable. I just refuse to listen to their other stuff onthe grounds that i'm afraid i'll like it....
