He is crazy good! I never heard him before until just a week ago when i did "random article" on Wikipedia. He is the shit!

I first saw "The Streets" about two maybe three years ago at a Pharcyde show. I thought they sucked and would be off the scene by now.

Haha, I just posted in the Best of '08 thread that I wanted to hear some of your suggestions for new music because I thought we had similiar taste in music!

The Streets most definitely are not for everyone. I don't even try to convince people to like them. It's one of those things that either you find it humorous and entertaining, or you think it's horribly annoying. They're not really one of those bands that you change your mind about. I personally love Mike Skinner, though. A Grand Don't Come For Free is one of my favorite albums of the decade. I wasn't as thrilled about the last record, but it had its moments.

I'm not a big fan of novelty joke music. Frank Zappa kills these fools.

Just one mention of The Streets and you go rampaging through the boards? Sorry for getting your blood pressure up!

I had totally forgotten my quiet loathing of them till you mentioned them. That's true. This isn't much of a rampage, though. Maybe this will help:
FILMORE SMASH!

Anyone into The Streets should definately check out Jamie T.
His album Panic Prevention is a corker.
