Looks like another high quality, raise the bar as high as possible, we think you are a very clever use base win for the xbox.
The show is a "premium" "exclusive" like the halo man tv show about a man in a motocross helmet shooting pokemon.
U Jelly Playstation fanboys?
For many xbox people, this will fill the Breaking Bad void and make the $500 console worth the money, no doubt.
Its part of the exclusive programming as gamers come from all kinds of backgrounds and have all kinds of interest. Nas is one of my fav artists, but no doubt MS will profile people from different music genres, TV shows, athletes ect. And since this is free programming its a win in my book. As for the $500 worth, Titanfall, Fable Legends, Quantum Break, Halo 5, Sunset Overdrive, Forza Horizon, Dead Rising 3, Killer Instinct Season 1 and 2, and Gears of War 4 all justify my purchase :)
My friend, I find calling rappers "artists" an insult to real music that takes effort. What this essentially is, is children rhymes. Replacing whimsical with boasting about crime, gratuitous swear words and demeaning woman and you pretty much have every rap ever produced. Most of these rap men, they don't know how to play a single instrument. In fact, a lot of the time they just steal "beats". (from real music). Then, when they become rich, we get to watch these silly men on music videos wear a cap sideways, bounce up and down showing off jewellery and pointing at woman's rear ends. It's the low point of culture.
You correct. The only real music is music from when music was invented, likely by Africans thousands of years ago.
My friend, once again you young fellows delve into the cheap easy route of race. Making superior arguments, I focused on the medium, not the skin color. This constant latching on to "Africa" argument rather than the actual quality of the source materiel is a disturbing sign of the times.
For your information young man, I play the clarinet.
Cheap route? That's interesting. I never mentioned one thing about race. I simply gave a basis for the start of music to illustrate the point that each new type of music has been criticized by those who listened to earlier music. Constant latching on to Africa? That's amusing. I simply mentioned the continent once, and apparently I'm consistently "latching" on to it? If it makes you feel less threatened, I can say that music was conceived in Western Europe. It really doesn't matter to me or the argument I was making.
The discussion of merits of music is something that has happened every generation. I'm guessing you play more classical music than Jazz. But jazz is the perfect example of music that was recently vilified, commercialized, now idolized as the gold standard by many "purists". I'm sure the churches in Western Europe that that classical music was the work of the devil and that only folk music had merit. But now you're playing the clarinet.
I think your kid names for me are pretty funny grandpa. You seem to be getting your rebuttals and general grumpiness from John McCain, "my friend". And for the record, I am probably your senior in intelligent, salary, educational achievement, mental fortitude AND age, so take "young man" condescending crap elsewhere.
