The new Within Temptation album will feature...Xzibit?

Well, I probably hate 95% of rap, but there's some incredibly good stuff out there. So I was partly joking too, :lol:

Rap is funny in that it's not consistently good, and there's more bad than good in a higher ratio than most other genres (IMO), but the good stuff is the best there is!

The first Death Grips album is heavier than pretty much anything that gets called metal these days. By far!
 
I personally hate rap but regardless if I do or not, this smells to me like them finding a cheap way to gain more fans and mainstream success.
 
Am I the only one that had to google "Xzibit" to figure out who/what it is? My first thought was that is was some weird instrument...
 
I did - the article devotes the majority of it's content to making fun of Dave Pirner (although, honestly, I would've gone with Burger King too), and it lists the bands for the other three artists. But it assumes the reader knows who Xzibit is.
 
I think they should get the first Howard Jones instead of this Howard Jones.. things could only get better.
