Lack of original material in hip-hop section.

mikenomn	Date: November 29, 2004 @ 4:36 PM Come the fuck on... I'm getting tired of seeing the latest uploads being things like "G-Unit feat Joe - I wanna get to know ya (insert username here Remix)." This site is supposed to be for musicians, right? Taking pre-recorded vocals, putting them over different pre-made beats and calling them a remix isn't exactly musicianship. Don't get me wrong...some DJing and remixing is. But half of what I see on this site is just annoying. And when I want to go and comment on real music, I generally hold back because I can't tell if that very good song is the user or something he uploaded for his friends or "remixed" by just mixing and matching vocals to beats. Am I alone on this?
mikenomn	Date: November 29, 2004 @ 4:40 PM Oh, and to go along with this...The painful number of just beat-makers on the site. Don't get me wrong, most are good, but I don't want to listen to just beats. I want to hear a performance... I want people to put more into what they upload than their latest "krazie" creation in Fruity Loops. Sorry...needed to vent.
TruGangstaZ	Date: November 29, 2004 @ 5:43 PM http://hiphop.dmusic.com/browse/ This site has plenty of artist on it... if your only lookin in the upload section, you probably wont find what your lookin for... - TruGangsta
mikenomn	Date: November 29, 2004 @ 5:48 PM Um...yeah, I was aware of those 650 some pages of songs available (many of which are the same songs I was just complaining about). I'd rather give comments to the latest songs being posted as they're usually more current and the artist will be checking up on them frequently.
MCCUBED	Date: November 29, 2004 @ 6:17 PM I JUST LIKE TO HERE CLEVER LYRICISTS WITH SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T SOUND COMMERCIAL. THE REMIXERS MAYBE NOT AS TALENTED BUT PEOPLE LIKE TO HERE IT. SUPPLY AND DEMAND. I'LL LEAVE EVERYONE WITH A LITTLE ADVICE FROM TOO $HORT. GET IN WHERE YOU FIT IN BIATHCH!
mikenomn	Date: November 29, 2004 @ 6:51 PM So you listen to commercial beats mixed with commercial vocals...Riii-hiii-hiiight. And since when does a free site that allows anyone to upload pretty much anything they want fall under the laws of a free market economy? There's VERY little demand here yet an overwhelming supply...much of which is painful to my ears and brain. P.S. It's 'hear'...not 'here'. Oh, and the caps lock key is on the left side of your keyboard. See, when you push it, it toggles your keyboard into "caps lock" which means that all of the letters you type become capital letters. Hit it again and they go back to normal.
RaXDaCapo	Date: November 29, 2004 @ 10:33 PM Like TruGangsta said, you won't find much over in that section. It's real hard to find any good or original hip hop tracks on here. I can find some funny songs on here, but it's hard to find some hot songs on here. However, there is a thread that has a link to all the good sites and I dunno if it's still up cause its been a while since i been here. But if you looking for some hot songs, check my page out.
Cryxan	Date: November 30, 2004 @ 4:50 AM Just a quick note--if you find an artist who has uploaded prerecorded copyrighted music, please let an admin know about it. We only allow original recordings to be uploaded. That is, covers are okay, but remixes are not.
mikenomn	Date: December 1, 2004 @ 5:52 PM I figured as much. Would it be possible for you guys to provide a way to report copyright infringements. Maybe a link to click that would alert you guys. Allow us to include comments and reason for the report, etc. Is that at all possible?
TransAutobot	Date: December 2, 2004 @ 1:45 PM Yea RaX definitely has some hot tracks up
AdamsGod	Date: December 14, 2004 @ 1:51 AM i would like to introduce you all to a friend of mine.. i met him here on dmusic, and soon, you'll find a collab of ours on the site. he is, in my opinion the best thing that happend to hip-hop on this site.. and in Canada. give him a listen: http://jrbane.dmusic.com/
Cryxan	Date: December 14, 2004 @ 4:36 AM Actually, the idea for some kind of flagging system has been brought up once before. I think something like that will eventually be implemented .
Wordsense	Date: December 14, 2004 @ 6:38 AM maybe you should give my music a listen then.
