Listened to Billie Jean while cleaning, wondered what the all time playlist might be.
I imagine Kanye, Clapton, Pink Floyd, James Brown, Ike Turner all make the cut with MJ but I’m curious what Lemmy comes up with!
Definitely Chris Brown. Also, the rapper who continued his concert while people suffocated to death in the crowd. I forgot his name.
Travis Scott.
Sinnead O’Connor was absolutely right to rip up the pope’s picture.
Lostphrophets. Quite a few bangers, but it was revealed that Ian Watkins is a turbo-pedo. He’s now in prison, and the rest of the bandmembers formed a new band, wanting nothing to do with him or the old bandname.
A few years ago I saw a guy at a music festival with a big old Lostprophets tattoo across his upper back. Poor bastard.
One extra awful thing about Ian Watkins (from South Wales) is that the singer “H” from Steps is also called Ian Watkins and is also from South Wales and because the tabloids at the time didn’t do and due diligence and the published his photo along with the story resulting in significant repercussions H, I think someone even graffitid his front door and received death threats.
And the first album is gone. Just deleted from existence. I really liked that album. But my god. The depravity of that man.

What do you mean? It’s on spotify, youtube and you can order it on amazon or ebay …
Not on the Swedish Spotify. Geo locking is a thing.
I didn’t realize that Swedish Spotify is “existence”
Same with static-x
That’s not the same at all. I get why you might say that, but not only was it not the singer, but the crimes involved were worlds apart in depravity, and static-x was still together after.
Seriously, comparing damn near anyone to Watkins is a tough thing. That dude was beyond fucked up and into the deep end of sheer evil. But the rest of it isn’t similar enough to draw the comparison.
What happened with StaticX?

I guess I’m too young to know why Pink Floyd is morally questionable?
It likely has more to do with Roger Water’s statements about Ukraine and Israel than anything Pink Floyd itself is about.
Roger Waters is a
conservativeantisemitic shitass, the rest are cool as far as I’m aware. I certainly havent let it stop me from enjoying pink floyd, though I have more trouble separating the art from the artist in other situations (lookin at you JK Rowling)Conservative? I think you should check your own ass for shit since you’ve got it exactly backward.
Conservative? Last concert I saw with him he was liberal AF. On what do you base his conservatism?
PF (Gilmour et al) is conservative enough…rich old white dudes.
Sinead O’Connor got cancelled for ripping up a photo of the pope. The a wave of paedophile priest accusations hit and hasn’t really stopped since.

That documentary that Rachel Evan Woods did was shocking. It was so sad and really woke me up to what a POS he is.
Austrian Death Machine. The singer (Tim Lambesis) tried to hire a hitman to murder his wife.
Iced Earth: the lead guitarist (Jon Schaeffer) is a founding member of a right wing militia group and participated in the 2021 storming of the US Capitol.
It’s really interesting that you picked his meme side project as the canceled band instead of As I Lay Dying.
Gotta have Garry glitter in there
Hey
I love smashing pumpkins, but Billy Corgan is a real asshole
Edit: Gotta add Morrissey/the Smiths tooBurzum and skrewdriver? or is that going too far?
Why not throw in Mayhem as well?
Wait, what did Mayhem do?
Ooh where to begin? They used to play with impaled animal heads on the stage, Dead used to cut himself whilst performing, then when he killed himself with a shotgun, Euronymous’s first reaction was to rearrange his body and take a picture, which was used as the cover to a bootleg, he also made necklaces out of fragments of Dead’s skull, and sold other fragments. Varg (the same Varg from Burzum) is a neonazi and burnt down at least one church, reportedly with Euronymous. Varg also murdered Euronymous as he believed Euronymous wanted to kill him. You’ll struggle to find a more messed up band
Yeah, all that is messed up, but to me Mayhem is the current lineup with Necrobutcher and Attila. I hope those guys didn’t do anything wrong, I just went to Mayhem concert last September.
They seem alright now, and Necrobutcher was disgusted by Euronymous’ response to Dead’s suicide and left the band over it if I recall correctly
Not far enough
Bill Cosby comedy albums count?
Came across one in a consignment bin a few weeks ago. Aww, nope, not even for $2.
R Kelly, Chris Brown, Kid Rock, and I guess Dixie, Chicks technically count.
What did the chicks do?
Opposed war after September 11th. Their careers got destroyed for it. One of them released some solo stuff a few years ago and they covered how big the backlash was for their statements.
You’re probably going to want the Uppers and Downers Song from Bill Cosby’s 1971 album, Bill Cosby Talks to Kids About Drugs.
Mayhem
Lostprophets… Shame, as Shinobi vs Dragon Ninja is a banger.
Everyday Combat too
First album I bought!
