Music Label Draft Picks and Discussion Thread - Page 165 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

vix,
Hill went crazy and stopped doing music. Other members of the group thought some songs on Miseducation that were about the nature of fame where directed spectifically at them, which cause a rift between them.

That's unfortunate

I think popping out 5 kids also had something to do with her disappearance from the music scene...

Again, it's not like this is a big issue for me or anything, the only reason I made a few posts about this is because he's not the face I immediately associate with Metallica

wiki says he is the main songwriter tho. songwriting>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>doing most interviews

Wiki is lying then. I think he does do most of the lyrics but the music is pretty much all a collaboration between him and the other guy with #3 (the most talented musician in the band) occasionally writing some of his own parts and in the later years starting to be more involved in the process.

We were probably going to take Hill this round but I was totally unsure of the value. I think it's hard to argue she won't get fed up with show business and quit in this life too. She was on the path to being like A-List top of the line artist and basically was for a short time. I love listening to her music.

I'm not sure you can find me a single song where Hetfield has a writing credit where undrafted isn't also credited.

doesn't matter. he's def a principal songwriter, collab or not, of one of the most successful metal acts, and bands, for that matter, of the past 25 years. It's a really good pick at this point.

there have been plenty of picks so far where there is plenty of collaboration and co-writing behind the bulk of the work associated with the pick. Elton John and David Byrne, to name a couple.

TuT,
I think Hill burnt out because Miseducation was such a huge success. So in this world we either get one hugely popular or incredible album, or she becomes more prolific but never becomes a huge star.

Catching up here...

The person who said MJB was the best R&B singer since 1990, that is correct.

LOL at Hetfield not being the frontman. Hetfield is Metallica. He does write most songs with an undrafted drummer, but the lead guitar player and bass player are basically given zero creative input in their music. And I mean really, the other guy is the drummer, he's not creating melody. Hetfield is insane value and I would have taken him rounds ago if he had any type of fit with my/pj's label.

Lauryn Hill is simply great, I wish she wasn't so depression prone. Her solo debut is undoubtedly one of the best albums of the past 20 years.

I had ideas of grandeur of doing some sick double picks that included lauryn hill. I semi considered her over MJB but MJB fell way to far and had to be drafted.

Dyenimator can pick because HTG was already skipped once.

I won't be around this weekend but I'll post my pick when it's up.

Hetfield is undeniably Metallica's frontman. You can argue whether or not he's the person most responsible for their success, but that's a totally different argument. (in fact, my next pick may be a guy who is NOT a frontman but IS most responsible for his band's success.)

RZA is a great pick we were between him and Rubin and basically flipped a coin
