I agree with others that the RIAA should work on producing higher QUALITY music instead of the same generic crap that has been spewed out recently. It seems that anyone with a 5th grade education and baggy pants can record a song and go platinum with it. Lets be honest - is "Hot in Here" by Nelly REALLY that good? I think not. The appeal comes from the young teeny boppers who want to hear about taking their clothes off for some reason. I am also fairly sick and tired of "music stars" who cant talk to someone without ending their sentences with "knowwhutimsayin". Im a fan of Eminems music, but I cant stand to hear him talk in an interview. I wont even get into the other "musicians" who use ebonics as their main form of communication. (Yo, wha's crackin? Ima givea shoutout to my dogs, P-Homey, J-Roll, X-Dude...blah blah blah blah....) Instead of trying to track down the "evil file sharing bastards", why dont they try to track down some REAL talent?
