Seekers top bands/musicians for 2002.

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>5) Christina Agulara, for her dirrty video, that's a move in the right direction for her =P


4) Nelly, for having great songs to listen to, it's a shame a lot of it has become majorly overplayed.


3) Avril Lavigne, for pissing off all those Punk rejects with her one song Skater Boy, and for having some great tunes to listen to such as her two other singles.


2) Eminem, for the movie, for all the great songs and quite possibly the best album he's ever released. Eminem has matured his music style in a very logical fassion, he didn't lose any fans on the last album and probably gained more on top of those he already had.



1) TATU, wow, it's been a very very long time since I've seen a band rise up this quickly in popularity. Most of all I put them here because in their two video's it's two 18 year old girls dressed up in Britney Spears type school uniforms, only they're in the rain and making out with each other =P I also think this new style of pop works extremely well in the club scene. How's that for shock value Eminem?????</div>

[Imakeholesinu]

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Do I look like a fraggle?</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Yes =P</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Errr...guess what they say is true....University has a way of turning musical tastes to shit.</div>

[Imakeholesinu]

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Yeah, I couldn't digest rap at all till I got done with my first semseter of college, then I was singing Izzo to a trash can while throwing up.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>I think he was joking.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I know what you guys listen to in Vancouver, but Swollen Members and Shakira just aren't my thing.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Not even Dre, Eazy E, or Ice Cube?????? I thought everyone listened to that back in elementary school.</div>

[Gentz]

<div style='font: 11pt arial; text-align: left; '>I knew this post would be good for a laugh : )</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>What's funny?</div>

[kali o.]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>You know, I almost hit that dreaded guy (not Moka-only) with my car a month or two ago...

Idiot lives in the building across the street from me (or maybe a girlfriend?) and never bothers waiting for the light....

KO-
"A girlfriend really made me dislike those west van chumps"</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Heh, did you expect anyone good to get nominated for a Grammy? (well, radiohead was, but didn't win)</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I mostly just listen to whatever the hell I hear and I like. In the case of Tatu, they're probably the most popular band here. They're also the #1 band all over Europe and most of the rest of the world. It's because of the Video mainly I think (two 18 year old girls in drenched school girl outfits making out with each other), but the song is cool too.

As for almost running down the dude from Swollen Members..... That would have made a great story to tell the grandkids =P</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>The reason why they nominated the same bands that I listed as the best of 2002 is just confirming a simple fact. That fact is that those ARE the best of 2002, whether they suit your taste or not.

I don't even know what people here call good music.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Fuck that bullshit. Give me some Cypress Hill, ICP, or Wyclef Jean. I'd even take Eminem, Onyx, or House of Pain over that shit.</div>

[Eric]

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>OK, you're gonna have to explain what's wrong with Dre, Easy E, and Ice Cube, and if it has anything to do with you not thinking they're gangsters or you don't want to hear gang rap it, I'm gonna kill the conv. quick.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Cypres Hill, Wyclef Jean, ICP? That's like rap for the sexually insecure.</div>

[the Gray]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Okay, i thought you were joking. If those are the best bands around right now, I'll keep listening to my UK radio.</div>

[the Gray]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't really like rap/R&B etc, but I like Wyclef</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Lack of creativity. They basically just put some annoying "cat synth" in the background and rap about stupid shit.</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>Yo, this boy ain't down with the clown, or the weed. Somebody bust a cap in yo ass!</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light"; text-align: left; '>By "cat synth", it sounds like a wailing cat. (Good example = most of Dre's shit) And I have some faith in Ice Cube, but only when he's hooked up with some talent like KoRn or David Bowie.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Seeing how "best" is a subjective, qualitative assessment, I'm going to enjoy your explanation why that is a "fact."</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>First when you tell me why the hell you think "best" used in that context is subjective when I am obviously refering to material sales and fanbase.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Nothing in what you said indicated that to me.</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>It's not my fault you know nothing about the grammy's.</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Um, people get Grammy's based soley on album sales?</div>

[Mr.Person]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Gentz and Kali O have voiced my opinions on this matter thousands of times before probably. However it needs to be reiterated that this post was good for a laugh.</div>
