Is Banksy a collective of artists?, by naughtyshorty on Mar 5, 2015 12:45:25 GMT 1, Interesting thread. My thoughts are 1. He's one man with people he relies on regularly and a v small inner circle 2. Emily r is v fit until u see her in gone girl. Then she is just a pretty, but slightly odd looking woman with an amazing figure 3. Jesusjones is fine using that quote. It's a film quote for fricks sake used in context. Let's stop getting precious of stuff and making issues over nothing. 4. Yeezy is the biggest douche going. Great producer, but probably no better or worse than pharrell. Carry on And yay or nay on the ginger nut cookies?
Nay. Custard creams every time

Is Banksy a collective of artists?, by naughtyshorty on Mar 5, 2015 13:08:26 GMT 1, when you start listing how many good yeezy songs you and everyone know, it becomes hard to deny. jesus walks, gold digger, stronger, power, all of the lights, can't tell me nothing, monster, nggas in paris, we don't care, all falls down, flashing lights, touch the sky that's just off the top of my head. then you actually get into the albums, like Dark Fantasy (maybe the best album - not rap album - of the past five years).
I hear you and I have all his albums and have seen him twice. Even yeesus is an awesome album, but every time I buy his music I really have to justify why I am buying the music of a person that quite simply deplore. It would all be so simple if he wasn't such an idiot. He is a fantastic producer, but I think equal to pharrell. Thing about Kanye is he is disallussioned which is so off putting

Is Banksy a collective of artists?, by mojo on Mar 5, 2015 14:11:52 GMT 1, I guess Banksy could be a group of like minded individuals that came upon each other. But I like to think of Banksy as a movement. Like that group in Fight Club. 
We are all part of the same compost heap .............

I think this whole new trend of everyone despising professionals because of their personalities is a little misguided, particularly with regard to creative artists. I am sure some of the greatest artists of the past centuries were completely horrible people (like god awful racists); seems like artists nowadays have it harder since every single thing they say is recorded/spread.
Re: Kanye, I've never seen him do anything really horrible tbh, or support anything really horrible. No physical violence, just offensive speech. And he doesn't even rap about shooting people. I think that says something; like the only thing people hate him for is not being raised in charm school.

I'd put "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" on my list of top 10 great albums ever. Yes, ever

Is Banksy a collective of artists?, by naughtyshorty on Mar 5, 2015 21:35:04 GMT 1, Personally I think "offensive speech" can be pretty horrible! I'd add to that public humiliation of others. But you're right in that he hasn't killed anybody or anything. By the same token I find it hard to enjoy anything by him because of who he is. If hitler had the talent of banksy I doubt any of us would be celebrating it. An extreme example but I'm sure you get what I mean

Is Banksy a collective of artists?, by Deleted on Mar 5, 2015 21:39:43 GMT 1, I have no idea who Kanye West is and never heard his songs.
I don't fall for the PC bullshit either and knee jerk reactions when someone uses some derogatory words.
People are too thin skinned these days and the left has hijacked all this PC stuff and ignore the important stuff.
Why is it OK to use some words and not others and who makes the rules?

I went to the show when he did "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" from start to finish on album release night at Bowery Ballroom with my brother; all the guest artists were there, and the entire crowd was basically celebrities and models. Easily best show I've ever seen in my life, and I've been to probably 500 concerts across all genres.
And I'd put it in top ten as well. One of those albums you can put on and listen to the whole way through, never wanting to change a thing and constantly in awe.
@elviswarhol find a copy of "my beautiful dark twisted fantasy" and listen to the album start-to-finish with a drink and a smoke. naughtyshorty i think we may have missed each other there; i was saying that he's not even a bad person, just a very very straightforward with a wild personality. he loves people, etc. - every pap video of him with a stranger is him being an incredibly nice person. every pap video of a pap trying to taunt him ends up w/ kanye screaming or punching. i don't really think that makes him a bad person at all.

Sort of look at me music with not much personality and lots of fashion label blingo.
I dont smoke or drink apart from the odd lager and lime when I'm wearing my Terry Mccann flares.
I prefer a bit of Bo Diddley.
Joes Garage by Zappa and if anyone wants to smoke and drink and put on the headphones may I suggest Hawkwind Alien 4.

Note to Banksy * if there is anyway this is possible please use the ancient art of ninja mind control to make this happen ..... pretty please.
Oh go on you did The Simpsons ....... natural progression innit
