I really, really hope it isn't a double album.
He's not really been recording long enough to fill two discs with great songs so it would probably be full of fillers. I'd rather just have one CD of 15 great tracks.

Not liking people from greece...does that actually make you "racist"? Is "Greek" a race? Or is it just the country you come from? I mean, do people who live in greece actually have different blood or genetics than someone from ..lets say .. france?

I mean, I get it, but they are both white. In america racism is basically broke down into..White, black, hispanic, oriental, and middle eastern. If someone was from greece here in minnesota, a black person wouldnt not like that person because he was greek, he would not like them because he was white.

Again, I get calling someone a racist for not liking a certain "kind" of person....But I just wasnt sure if being from a different country actually makes you a different race...rather than being the same race from a different country.

I wouldnt be a racist if I hated people from New Jersey....

As for the double disk album. I dont like it. If anything, release the album, then release the other songs seperately on itunes or something....a second disk is just usually a waste

"I hate people from Africa"
That's not racist, because I'm talking about people from a location, not a race.
Either way, racism is a prejudice any way you look at it.
A prejudice is a prejudice is a prejudice.
Who cares what word is used for it?

at this time i def agree with that man, but i guess in the back of my mind if theres one of the few artists to be able to pull off an opportunity such as a dbl disk itd be em. i mean if he spent 1/2 yr recording more songs for mmlp OR t.e.s. he would have pulled it off. maybe more so t.e.s. come to think of it butnot too many artists have such a concrete album layout, i.e. 15 songs/5 skits, intro, outro so that mighta got f*cked up

1) How can you hate people from the Country that was home to King Leonidas?
2) If I hate all south africans what is that :unsure:
3) There is almost no chance it will be a double album and I'd actually prefer if it wasn't

how many legends made double albums?


Jay-Z, Tupac and Biggie are 3 that come to mind.

lol, well to many he is considered one. I'd still fit him in my Top 5 DOA even though the old Jay Z was a million times better than the new one, IMO.

Double-Disc albums don't really impress me, because there are too many tracks, and it inevitably loses its replay value. Like you say, classic albums that have been double-disc are very few and far between.

The most common thing people say about double-disc albums is "if they put the best tracks from the 2 discs onto 1 album, then it would have been a classic"

Its a cliched view, but its correct more often than not.

2 Double-Disc albums I can think of from the top of my head, and both are very underwhelming.

^ and yes, take the 15 or so best tracks from those albums, and put it one disc, then they would have been superior albums, and have more replay value!


agree with everythin you said bro

Well at the risk of sounding like an ass.....

I think the difference is...calling someone a racist implies they hate/dislike someone for no reason at all other than their appearance. Where as hating/disliking someone after knowing about their background and culture is a bit different. Because you actually have a reason. I mean, your still generalizing and even though someone is from a country doesnt mean he is a specific way. But, to be honest, generalizations for the most part are spot on. Thats why they exist. Because of how often you see people of whatever culture they might be from doing the same things.

Saying asians like rice is a generalization. Not all asains like rice im sure....But, a lot of them do.

Anyways. Thats the point I was trying to make. If he doesnt like Greeks then dont put him in the same class as an ignorant racist. Because there are specific things ( most likely anyways ) that he doesnt like about them that brought him to that conclusion. Which, again, is a lot different than being racist.

And I agree. A prejudice is a prejudice - but when you attach generalizations its not so much judging someone before knowing anything about that person...So much as judging a person because of they're culture.

A few days ago or maybe even last week he was posting how he was reorganizing his cd collection, so chances are that's what this post is talking about.

Llock, I don't get it.

Generalizations are usually true.
So why can't someone be prejudiced against blacks if they had a reason?

Your argument is wrong if it can't work both ways.

Remember, races create their own stereotypes, not the racists.

And I don't give a fuck who's prejudiced against who. I understand hatred very well.
