Lillard's RAP Career Boomin' and Major Labels Interested

[ripcityboy]

Dame is getting to live his dreams of being a superstar athlete and major label athlete at the same time! I wonder if Steve Harris from Iron Maiden wishes he could go back and finish his trials with West Ham United..... Fuck that! I'd rather listen to the Trooper and Aces High!

 

[Eastoff]

Holy shit this dudes game is on point, and this one sounds like it's going to be his best yet.

Oh no, Milly Vannily

 

[Mediocre Man]

Yah, TMZ but quote is from Dame's agent at least.

People seem to think TMZ is a joke, but they have broke a lot of high profile stories, and their reporting is pretty spot on.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Nope. Kyuss, Queensryche, Sammy Hagar, Monster Magnet, and The Bothy Band.

DUDE!!! Fuckin Kyuss!!!!

I didnt know you were that into music. Check your in box.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Haven't heard more than a few seconds of it, what do you think of it?

Holy shit I stumbled upon a Queensryche discussion on S2. LaTorre is great. A huge upgrade to what Tate had become. Tate is a legend, always will be, but he simply cannot sing anymore and he's a total dickhead. Their newest album "Condition Human" is by far their best since "Promised Land" and it's not close (though I thought "American Soldier" was sneaky great)

Long live the 'Ryche. Oh, and I saw a Kyuss mention as well. RAWK.

I love Kyuss and QUOTSA, but I never got into Queensryche for some reason. Too oprahish vocals. Probably why I didnt care much for Iron Maiden too.

And the guitars always sound TOO perfect. Like digital. Too produced for my ears. Thats why I like the rawness of Kyuss and QUOTSA

QOTSA are one of my all time favorite bands. The cover art for "Rated R" is my twitter avi. Queensryche, on the other hand, yeah - they are different than QOTSA. Definitely have a very produced sound and if you're not in to the operetic voice then they just aren't your thing. No biggie. But I run in to hardcore QR fans often and there's just a weird bond the fanbase has. Been following them since 1991. Defend them till I die!

Dont know why I keep adding a U to QOTSA, lol.

Your right on every aspect. Queensryche has a serious hard core following. Its pretty cool honestly even though Im not a fan of the band's music.

My fav Qotsa is Songs for the Deaf, but thats most, I would assume. A couple albulms are almost too abstract for my tastes, but man.. the writing and compositions are off the charts.

 

[Eastoff]

Nerds!

 

[Daweez04]

When does this kid ever sleep?!?

After a night of drinking like a fish, he passes out.

Dame wants to own his own label and the smart move would be to open his own club in Portland and forget about touring...he's already got a brand..the dude is hooked up to a pretty impressive network of rich folks who are into rap

The funny part about all that is he probably IS the richest of all his friends lol.

 

[Sinobas]

Watch him retire young to pursue his rap career. That is something that would happen to the Blazers.

Thankfully he doesn't seem like the kind of dude that has his head screwed on diagonally.

straight fire FAMS

Man..... I just don't understand the whole DOLLA thing.... seems lame.

Still lame.

Just be Dame.

 

[UncleCliffy'sDaddy]

Personally, I prefer he spent his off time engaging in the low impact sport of rapping, rather than wearing his ass out/potentially getting injured trying to make an "it's not what you know, it's who you blow", waste of everyone's time Olympic team.......but then, that's just me.......I think that a successful rap career would bring more (positive) national attention to Portland than Dame getting sucked into the five ring circle jerk......

I thought Lill' Dame would've been a cool play on his name.

I dunno UC...he's 25..single..still lives with his mom..rich...free trip to Rio is like a coaching clinic...probably the best after hours parties in Olympic history. Rap might just be a more dangerous past time

He is being Dame.

Sorry he's not conforming to who you want him to be.

There is already a rapper named Dame.

He's not married but he's been dating the same girl for over 4 years.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Stalker.

 

[riverman]

He's not married but he's been dating the same girl for over 4 years.

Then he can afford another ticket

 

[PDXFonz]

Stalker.

Pretty well documented if you follow Dame and his goings on.

 

[Natebishop3]

You're not conforming to what I want you to be either. So much disappoint.
