    Why are your ellipses always only 2 periods?

    Well, that's good to hear. I have a question for you, though. Do you see any hip hop musician on the level of Radiohead? I'm interested in knowing who you do see as on that level if anyone.

    And look, I understand what you are saying about him being delusion about the level his music is at, but many great artists think their music is the best out there. It's really similar to athletes believing they are the best at that sport when fans think it is completely obvious that they aren't. I think it drives artists to become better as their careers go on because they have someone to look up to and hope to surpass. That's my opinion on it.

    I'm not saying he is, but I understand why he thinks that way. That said, he did state it in a way that makes out to be an arse just like everyone says that he is, heh.

    Radiohead would snub their fans.

    I think Tupac was on a whole other plane compared to Radiohead.

    Nas is right there, he really never lived up to his potential though.

    There are other guys who are really creative (Jay-Z, eminem), but I don't think they are actually "there" in terms of understanding what they are doing.

    I think the fame and fortune ruins most good acts once the debut album gets played out and you have to create another album without your original perspective on life.

    I have heard him say as much. Hope dude changes his mind. I'm hoping that Souljah Boy or Flo Rida will retire in his place... Really sad if he goes through with it.

    I heard this song off of a mixtape awhile ago. So this is actually an official release? I always assumed this was a bootleg thing they did for fun in the studio.

    I guess you could see this from 2 sides. I wouldn't want to be above meeting anyone.

    At the same time why should I be obligated to see every fan, even if you are famous? I'm sure there were other non-celebs working backstage who would've liked to meet Thom. But because Hannah or Kanye demanded that they come out of their dressing rooms to talk they have to because it's Hannah or Kanye? Funk that. What if it was Tori Spelling? Then everyone would be laughing and accusing Tori of having an over-inflated ego. I think it's refreshing he doesn't hold celebrities in higher regard.

    I like the part where Miley says she'll "ruin" Radiohead, and that she's going to "tell everyone".

    Can her US teeny-bopper demographic really influence a world-wide phenomena? Like some 13 year old girls are going to convince the world to stop listening to good music? Doubtful.

    LOL.

    The response to this is puzzling, Radiohead is a great band and two no-talent ass clowns got owned by them. THIS IS A GOOD THING.

    I don't think any artist has an obligation to meet and greet fans of their work. They weren't interested in visiting with Miley Cyrus and Kanye West, and that's entirely their call. They'd have no peace if they had to visit with every fan that wants to meet them. So why should they make time for those two -- just because they're celebrities?
