I should also add that I cant stand the whiny vocals, and that macho rap-rock makes me cringe anyway, to me the hypocrisy is just icing on the cake.

Im glad you acknowledge it though, I used to argue with a girl I knew saying that the hypocrisy was OK because they were "spreading awareness". I understood, but to me the 'awareness' is a moot point considering the fact that if 'the system' allows them to do what they love, be succesful and make millions, what could they possibly find wrong with it?
