For all of you faithful readers of our joyous little website, you're probably already familiar with the exciting Kottonmouth Kings review saga here at JPP. Those of you who aren't can get caught up by checking out the following prerequisite reading. First I recommend heading over to the review for Kottonmouth Kings' newest album by clicking here. Next I suggest you read JPP critic Matt Medlock's blog entry in defense of this review by clicking here. Well I hope every one's caught up, because the plot has just thickened!
I first would like to make it very clear that our writers are not in the "dirt dishing" business, and that we give our absolute honest opinions on the material that we review for the benefit of our readers. It would not be fair to those who frequent our site if we did not write exactly what or how we felt while listening, playing or viewing the media that we review. With all that being said I present to you a statement from the lead singer of the Kottonmouth Kings themselves, Brad X (aka Daddy X).
Everybody is entitled to their opinion, but if we let negative reviews
effect our work and mission at hand than we would have quit a long time
ago. Its funny when the people dishing out the dirt don't like it flung
back at them and I would love the writer to send me one of his albums so
we can put it on our website and review it. At the end of the day, music
and art is subjective and I just hope we strike a nerve with people.
Love it or hate it “The Green Album” was the #1 independent record in
the country despite your negative review, so when we step on stage
tonight and see the packed house erupt in complete anarchy and
celebration, I will be reminded why we make music; for the fans not some
uptight critic who hates the fact that do things our way.
13 years and going strong….
-Daddy X
Hopefully this will bring an end to the gripping Kottonmouth Kings review saga. It had its highs and its lows, its heroes and its villains. It had a suspenseful climax and a rewarding resolution.When it was all said and done I think we even learned a lesson or two. So until next time faithful readers, don't mug yourself.
