Kurt Cobain kept it real

[Food Mane]

You need to understand the context of when Nirvana came out before you start listening. At the time (1991), 80's hair metal was still king. Men dressed like women - makeup, women's clothing, hairspray, the works - singing overly indulgent songs about drugs and sex. Not saying anything of any value, just one continuous party.

Rock music was this:



and then out of no where this dirty guy from Seattle dressed in jeans and flannels came and dropped this:

Everything changed. None of that old party shyt was cool anymore.

Rock got grimy again. It's like if a 2018 version of Mobb Deep dropped right now and everyone instantly realized how absolutely retarded music had gotten and stopped listening to all of the pop fake bullshyt and went back to timberlands and hoodies.

I pray that we have some shyt like that happen to get hip hop back to something with substance on a wide level.

On top of all the societal shyt the music is dope. Even for someone who doesn't listen to rock. The MTV unplugged album (you can watch it in YouTube) might be a good intro. Then try Nevermind.

Good analogy

Millenials ate up the Freddie Mercury movie and he was before their time. I think the same would happen with a Kurt Cobain movie.

That movie was so god damn sanitized too Made it all out to be the bumbling misadventures of ole crazy Freddie while making the rest of the band all look like stand up dudes that just had to put up with the eccentric crazy person in the room because of course, the guys that are still alive had complete creative control over the movie.

They'd fukk up a Nirvana movie so bad. Worse than All Eyez on Me which was basura.

Kurt Cobain Shares Favorite Bands, Views on Vanilla Ice in 25-Year Old Rediscovered Interview

"I think rap music is the only vital form of music that has been introduced to music in a long time since punk rock. I would never do rap music. No. There’s just no sense in it. The people who do rap music do it just fine…I’m usually offended by people like Vanilla Ice and stuff like that…The white man ripped off the black man long enough. They should leave rap music to the African-Americans because they do it so well and it is so vital to them."

He would of ate his words if he were here to see Eminem. He probably would of been a stan of his too.

Nah I don’t think you can get much worse than that. Pac ascended to Heaven in the middle of LV Blvd fukk did all that smoke come from?

fukk no, he would have hated Eminem. Eminem is the embodiment of his complaints about Vanilla Ice (but actually way worse because he was/is much more popular).

I've heard complaints about that kind of thing. I wonder what a more historically accurate movie would be like.

Just watched a documentary on El Duce. They did a good job depicting how complex he was as a person, saw the good and bad in equal light. The footage towards the end highlighted how bad his drinking had gotten, and all I gotta say is people ain't shyt.

Eminem is nothing special, other than being a stiff white man in a Black arena who can string rhyming words together..make his skin any darker and he'd be the average rapper from the late 90s.

Bolded probably true. Not bolded part is some star would add on for attention.

Nobody'll ever know why he killed himself, but it was probably a mixture of drug addiction, undiagnosed mental illness, a shytty childhood, marrying a crazy courtney love, and the fact that all the music he loved growing up had been co-opted by the commercial music industry.

His suicide note was all about regret over becoming some social pariah, or gen-x spokesman, so if anything, knowing that rock was about to die would be a giant relief to him, because he hated everything about the "rock" scene.

The craziest shyt that nobody talks about is how Pac, Biggie, and Cobain (three biggest musical icons of the 90s) all died in that decade. They should've been the leading figures in music for the next decade or so, instead there was a giant vacuum that got filled up by babypop boy/girl groups - and so music overall the last 20 or so years has become more childish and less mature, exacerbating the death of genuine artistry and leaving us with a buncha rainbow dreadlocked, cookie cutter, creatively bankrupted so-called "musicians".

Be honest....take the Biggie vs Pac angle away from the equation....standing alone was Biggie really a top three musical icon of the 90's?

Off topic: I wanna hear the full Steve Albini mixed version of In Utero....Not just the bits and pieces out there.

Was watching a documentary on YT about Steve Albini.

For a time being, if you were an artist and came to Chicago, he would help engineer the album with no cost (reading that now, he may have been full of shyt).

Yep kurt wouldn't play any of Dave's songs besides one so he woulda just remained the drummer.

He used Kurt's death as a stepping stone into credibility for his solo career with Foo

Krist had more integrity than to do that

Star said Kurt Cobain acknowledged hip hop was about to take over rock and thats why he blew his head off.
