magisme Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 this is a musician being a musician!Learn Axl.Axl probably has more material than Slash. Just saying. I have more than both of them combined. Of course I have no proof, but I'll be sure to get a few sycophants to testify to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinyrobot Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Dude has some collaborations with pop acts, but thats nothing new. It started with Michael Jackson back in the day, so what? Still some pretty good ones, Give In To Me or Street Child are fantastic for example.Sure, he played on some forgettable songs like that one with Rihanna but out of the probably 100 collaborations there are maybe 10 that aren't good. He is a musican who likes to play guitar. It's so EasyCollaboration with Michael Jackson was the best thing ever. He should have stuck with that level of artists and don't stoop so low as to play with Paulina Rubio, Marta Sanchez, Rihanna or Fergie! What's the need to ruin himself like that?

Bottom line is, they`re as bad as each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom line is, they`re as bad as each other.Plugging his guitar to anywhere. You make it sound so dirty. The man likes to play his guitar and people want his guitar on their songs and albums. There is nothing I repeat: nothing wrong with it at all. You don't have to listen to what you don't like. It's as simple as that.Whatever Slash is doing, it seems to really work for him. He has become an icon and his talent, hard work, good business decisions and the way his brand grew will probably lead to him becoming a legend after his time. I thought the Guitar Hero thing was a good move for example. And the Gibson and Marshall deals that he's still building. He's good with people and building relationships with partners.On top of that, it gives him the chance to always play his guitar in connection to different projects so he's never rusty. If you're a fan of Slash, I only expect good things from him in the future. If you're into what he's doing, he's going to deliver what he's good at on time. He's reliable which again is one of the main reasons so many artists want to work with him. That's a good thing imo. It means you're in demand.

Apollo Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Never believed I would see the day that a musician was criticized for releasing music and for doing guest spots with other major acts. Luckily, I have the ability to look at other forums and websites to get a better overall view of what the general rock and music public think. And I hate to bust anybody's bubble.....but outside of GnR forums, slash is pretty much loved by all. Axl on the other hand....not so much. Even take a look at the Slash and GnR Facebook pages and read the comments. I will always be a diehard Axl fan. And I haven't like the majority of Slash's post GnR work. But to hate the guy just because Axl does? The official term is Bieber Logic. And as an adult, it's something my brain will never be able to comprehend. Let me repeat. Sharing your music, playing with lots of different musicians, and being fan friendly in terms of interviews.....in this forum, those are considered bad and void of integrity. Not sharing your music, rarely doing interviews, playing tours that live off of 25-30 year old material, and playing weddings and birthday parties for b-level actresses....on this forum, that's considered having integrity. Bieber Logic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussTCB Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I don't begrudge Slash for the amount of output, I just wish I liked any of it. I'm also not saying he shouldn't release music just because I don't like it. His albums sell, his tunes get played on the radio a lot, so someone must like it. I'm happy for those who like his music and I truly wish I did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I respect Slash for doing it for the love of the music. I am guessing he could sit back and live off his Guns/ VR royalties but he chooses to make new music. he also does it himself without a major label backing him. You may not like his music but how can you not respect him for that? At least he is making new music all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
