I'm struggling to find any word other than plagiarism that can describe this. What's the opposite of "creative" but also means "stealing"? That's what this is.

In almost all college courses that assign papers, if you turned in a paper with the same amount of copy-pasta as Girl Talk you would not only receive an F for the paper, you would be dropped from the course. Your professor would give you a stern talking to, and it would be made very clear that they do not tolerate cheaters in their class.

So what? If people enjoy it, who could it possibly be hurting?

Do you also think it's okay for the RIAA and record company execs to get rich off by leeching off of the work of creative and/or talented musicians?

Granted, this thief is never going to get rich like the people running the major record labels. But a thief is a thief is a thief, and this no talent hack is no better than the thieves at the RIAA.

Wow dude... you seriously are a tool, good name.

TOOL · 06-20-2008, 12:31 AM

Lol at the -internet because "music's not always about money".

Good point, I really should have been more clear.

Girl Talk is deserving of being shat upon due to their apparent lack of talent and creativity alone.

If you also want to hate on them because they're riding the coattails of people that create music for a living, you can do that too.

Sure. It's a free country. If they can find someone to sign the contracts, it's all theirs.

Two points.

A) Girl Talk is one guy, not a band.

B) I know a lot of people like to shit on musicians who are unoriginal or untalented, so if you're coming at it from that perspective, I understand. You're probably in the majority. Personally, I couldn't give a shit how talented some guy is if he makes music I happen to like.

hahahahahahahaaaaahahahahaaahahahahahaahahahahhaha

People have been doing mashups and remixes and building songs on top of plagiarized samples for decades.

Here's what I want you to do:

Make a list of about a dozen songs that you actually like, and in one week I (some random person) will mash them up just for you. Okay? But no cheating and picking uber eclectic shit that barely borders on music to begin with. Pick about a dozen songs that you truly want to hear mashed up.

I may or may not be able to work with everything you pick, so go ahead and pick a few extras if you want. I also reserve the right to add bits and pieces of songs of my choosing too.

Sound like fun to you?

Downloaded for $0.00, selected "I can't afford to pay" because it's the sad truth. If I had money, though, this would be one of the rare occasions where I actually spend money for a CD.

One week. I would be faster, but I've never done this before.

If this mashup is awful how do we know whether it is TOOL's fault or your song choice? My money's on your songs.

Mecha Washu · 06-20-2008, 03:34 AM

I was really excited for this but I am not a big fan of this album and the stupid fucking chipmunk voices he used the entire time. The mashing of the songs in general are also fucking awful and annoying. Who let the dogs out followed by eminem lol? It seriously feels like a retarded kid made this by copying and pasting random parts of songs into fruity loops and than set vocal speed to high for 3/4 of the play time. I see this being a huge hit the next time the FBI wants to force a group of people out of a compound though!

Big step back when compared to his Night Ripper album.

Originally I thought Night Ripper was better than this, but this was still a good album. The beginning of this album is just so awesome and it gets stronger and stronger into the later tracks. I think it's probably a better album now, which is saying a lot

Drtyrm · 06-20-2008, 10:06 AM

Thanks for the tip off. I love this and hate it at the same time. I can't read forums or play games or anything with this on, I'm too busy listening to the music. :/
