Interesting article. Very true. Too bad the rappers conent is rubbish. But that's cool, the good stuff isn't meant for the masses. For quality hip hop go here: http://www.non-prophets.com "Let me rub my back against the notches on your bedpost/ To scratch these afterthoughts off my flesh and sh...

I'd buy it. But it would have to have old footage as well as new.

I have to disagree with you Arthur I really like Eminen. Some of his rap has substance and some of it is (c)rap but I think you are doing him a diservice to write him off. I do agree Leonard gets to the heart and soul of the matter more succinctly and Eminen's lyrics are more street wise, Tsk, tsk....

I grew up listening to Cohen because my Dad played his music. He'd only listen to him when he was real depressed. Usually it would be at four o'clock in the morning after every one left the party. He'd be totally smashed (and it took a lot to get him drunk) and in a REAL bad mood. I learned to stay ...

Slightly off topic but i know several Cohen fans who really like Eminem. In fact as i recall he even got quoted at the Hydra event. Now who was it who did that............? p. Perhaps some Leonards fans like Eminem cause he's a wordsmith. Although Eminem has absolutely no substance to his music. It...

I'm not surprised that he likes Tom Waits. Tom reminds me of him a lot. Except that he has a nicer voice. (haha)

How about Montreal?

Does anyone know if he'll be in Montreal any time in the near future? Hell, I'll even find a way to Ottawa if I have to.

No, that's his name (real name Paul Francis)

He's in a group called "Non-Prophets" and they have an album comming out this fall called "Hope". It's gonna be amazing.

Tree of Knowledge

"I am a construct of your world. Deep rooted, polluted, tortured/ Abused and altered. I just caught ya'... Eve's dropping. Adam's rising... To pluck the fruit from off the branch reaching out to touch your inner drive/ Cut me open and count the rings inside to see how long I've been alive/ Cont...
