Dumb things over which I get all worked up
Via GOPINION, I found this post about Moby's newfound respect for Eminem because of the latter's anti-Bush song, 'Mosh'. For those that don't know, the two men had a very public verbal brawl. Eminem embarrassed Moby in multiple ways, including a mention in one of his songs calling Moby a 'bald headed fag', 'old' and describing Moby's music style as 'over'. Moby, wildly outmatched in every possible way including bankroll, talent, fame, brains and size, backed down and announced randomly at an Awards Show that he had 'no problem with Eminem'.
This irks me so much. Do you mind if I use foul language to describe it? If you do, don't click on.
Moby, you little bitch, grow some balls. If you hated Eminem for being misogynistic, nothing has changed. You hated him for using words like 'fag'. He laughed in your face and then called you specifically a fag. He's never going to like you. You're never going to be in. Not even if you both hate Bush. Not even if you'd make a song dissing Ja Rule and The Source. When Eminem wrote his song 'Toy Soldiers' about his various squabbles, you didn't even get a mention. You're a nobody. You're a sad, little boy who didn't get enough love from his daddy and now makes up for it by sweating Eminem, who clearly wouldn't spit on you if you were on fire. It's over, let go, nobody listen to techno!

Karol-
It's best not to get worked up over the stupid political opinions of actors and musicians. I actually like Moby's (and Eminem's) music, and just ignore their ignorant political rants.
On the other hand, I also admire Maggie Gyllenhaal's work as a porn star, but her anti-American and pro-terrorist statements are so offensive that I won't support her work anymore, no matter how many unnatural acts she performs in it.

Posted by: Trapper Markelz at July 30, 2005 10:43 AMA big yawn to both of them.
Posted by: Eric Deamer at August 1, 2005 10:53 AMI doubt Eminem got enough love from his Daddy, either. And even less love from his Mommy, that's for sure.
Of course people listen to techno. There are people like Aphex Twin who play techno, and who make Eminem look dumb and talentless in comparison. I think Eminem has more personality than Moby, and Moby suffers from a lot more stupid ideas in his head, but I find them both boring and predictable. I read somewhere that Eminem is thinking of ending performing and switching to producing, which I think would be a smart move.
Posted by: Ivan Lenin at August 1, 2005 11:11 AMEminem producing. Please God no. The last thing we need is more of the ultra-irritating, tintinitus (sp)- inducing stylings of "Wanksta" inflicted on the populace. Will the next song he produces use a dentist-drill sample?
