Unpopular Opinion(s) Thread

I mean, they were popular, but the death of Cobain gave them more spotlight than they would have gained. I always thought he sounded horrible singing live.
:wow:

This is one the best live albums ever made.

I dont think I can name 1 other grunge record so it's not wild to me :lol if anything it's amazing that I like SLTS as much as I do.
 
I mean Nirvana had 5 number 1 singles.

That’s a wild statement.
And he's really dying by his lie :lol: I would have no problem if he just said "nirvana sucks", but "1 hit wonder" when they had 4 consecutive #1 albums in the 90's is just a lie.
 
I agree that Nirvana is overrated, but to call them a “one hit wonder” is 100% objectively false.
Smells Like Teen Spirit
Lithium
In Bloom
Come As You Are
Heart-Shaped Box
All Apologies

All hit songs by them.
 
It's not stupid it's my unpopular opinion. Now if you think anything else is worth listening to that's on you but the rest of their music is pass for me. Your playlist is trash anyway if you got anything else of theirs in it anyway.

Well first of all, sayingthey had 1 hit IS something that can be proven/disproven.

So what is YOUR definition of HIT? Since you feel they've only had one.
 
Cool.

But do you at least acknowledge there is an actual/technical definition of the word Hit?

And based on that, SLTS isn't the only hit by Nirvana?

Legit questions here.
My verbiage has rustled feathers. I am aware of the technical term hit. I also sometimes say a song is hitting, and its of my opinion as well, not that the song actually charted.
 
I mean nirvana's lead singer died at an early age...a bit unfair to call them overrated due to the fact that they didn't have the longevity. Right?
 
I wouldn't know who Nirvana was if the band tee trend didn't pop off a few years back. I'm 24 and never been in to that genre of music.
 
Pippen still bitter about that contract decision he made.


According to Pippen:


DP: ".. By saying it was a racial move then you're calling Phil Jackson a racist..."

Pippen: "I don't have a problem with that."

DP: "Do you think Phil was?"

Pippen: "Oh yeah..."

Exchange with @ScottiePippen on Phil's decision to have Kukoc take final shot against the Knicks pic.twitter.com/pH2aDLMDcQ

Sports journalist Dan Patrick interviewed NBA Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen over the comments he made during his GQ interview. One of Pippen's bombshell remarks came when he claimed Phil Jackson's famous decision to draw up a last-second play for Toni Kukoc instead of him was racially motivated.
"I don't think it's a mystery, you need to read between the fine lines. It was my first year playing without Michael Jordan, why wouldn't I be taking that last shot?" Pippen said to GQ. "I been through all the ups and downs, the battles with the Pistons and now you gonna insult me and tell me to take it out? I thought it was a pretty low blow. I felt like it was an opportunity to give [Kukoc] a rise. It was a racial move to give him a rise. After all I've been through with this organization, now you're gonna tell me to take the ball out and throw it to Toni Kukoc? You're insulting me. That's how I felt."
When speaking to Dan Patrick, Pippen doubled down on his comments when Patrick challenged him on his claims. When Patrick told Pippen that calling Jackson's decision "a racial move" insinuates that the legendary coach is a racist, Pippen said, "I don't got a problem with that," before confirming his belief that Jackson is a racist.
"I mean, do you remember Phil Jackson left the Lakers, went and wrote a book on Kobe Bryant, and then came back and coached him? I mean, who would do that? You name someone in professional sports that would do that, you know? I think he tried to expose Kobe in a way that he shouldn't have," Pippen added. "You're the head coach. You're the guy that sits in the locker room and tells players, 'This is a circle and everything stays within the circle, because that's what team is about.' But you as the head coach, open it up, and now you go out and you try to belittle, at that time, probably one of the greatest players in the game."
Despite Patrick's attempts to defend Jackson, Pippen brought up the fact that he played for the coach and was around him when cameras and media weren't around.
 
^ Yea we are discussing it in the LAst Dance thread.

Phil HAS said some wild things about Black Athletes over the last 15 years, so I ain't dismissing the thought of him being a racist White Man Born in 1945.

But, I don't see how Pippen's example showed proof of that.


Scottie could be trippin.
Phil could be a racist.
Two things can be true.

I believe Pip. Look at how Phil labeled LeBron business partners as "posse". You can't overlook at some of the racial undertones in Phil's language because you think he is chill/zen or whatever the F you call it.
