The Musicbanter Hall of Fame Nominations (favorite song, Outkast, rapper, quote)

TrampInaTux · 07-08-2006, 01:49 AM

Thrice don't make it into the Hall of Fame.
And it's useless arguing over who gets nominated. If you don't like who's being nominated then nominate someone yourself-simple as. Also, someone said that it should reflect MB's taste in music, and that we shouldn't just pick out the top contenders. Well I find that to be a bit stupid, because if the people of MB are picking these top contenders then they do deserve to be in the Hall of Fame because they are MB's taste in music.
Radiohead were perceived as top contenders yet they got some disagreements. You can't just fill the Hall of Fame with obscure bands and you can't just fill it with mainstream bands. The obvious people will get in the HOF, yes, but as long as they reflect the music tastes of this site (which is what this thread is about) then they deserve it.

Anyway, a nomination from bungalowbill357

Immortal Technique

One of the most socially active and greatest rappers on the scene, Immortal Technique has released two thoroughly great albums that shine not only because of his amazing ability as a rapper, but his politically and socially conscious lyrics which have given a voice to those who remain otherwise unheard.

AGREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Technique OWNS.
Listen to him now!

MURDER JUNKIE · 07-08-2006, 02:07 AM

Disagree

~~bungalow~~ · 07-08-2006, 02:08 AM

You're fat anway.

Raine · 07-08-2006, 02:10 AM

I disagree simply because Nas should be inducted into the hall of fame sooner than technique.

~~bungalow~~ · 07-08-2006, 02:11 AM

Hell no, Nas is trying to be some kind od gangsta rapper now, it's pathetic.

TrampInaTux · 07-08-2006, 02:11 AM

You can't disagree because of that really...

You've gotta have a proper reason. I would bet that you haven't heard anything by Immortal Technique.

Agreed

TrampInaTux · 07-08-2006, 02:15 AM

I'm going to allow myself to vote now, seen as I'm not nominating these people myself. Bill your vote doesn't count by the way, seen as you nominated him.

I agree. Great wordsmith and political views (even though I'm not big on political music) a breath of fresh air into the rap game really.
