Moby Versus Eminem
Moby is going on record again as being very critical of the messages being sent by the lyrics of Eminem and others.
On his website Moby asks: "If a musician made a record wherein he talked about killing Blacks and Jews would he get covered in the press and played on radio and MTV? If the answer is 'no' (as it should be), then why is radio and MTV filled with music that has lyrics about killing and brutalising women and gays?"
I think it will be cool to have them publicly debate the issues of freedom and responsibility that are at the heart of the argument. They'll probably both just exploit the thing in an effort to increase sales.
