kid cudi vs linkin park and other similar bands

In this round to keep the debate fair I will only post my case. Observation: To determine who has proved that the music of each party is better multiple things must be considered. The quality of the music, the content that the music presents, and the success of each. Now with that in mind, let's move on to the case. CASE C1: Kid Cudi's music encourages drug use and other profane ideas. In Kid Cudi's song, Marijuana he writes: “Pretty green budAll in my bluntOohh I need itWe can take off nowOohh Marijuana, yeahPretty green budAll in my blunt Oohh I need itWe can take off nowOohh I know you wannaSmoke” [1] In Kid Cudi's song, Ashin' Kusher (referring to Kush as in marijuana he writes): “I know you know me, the double O repper do you step a gun toter nana, smoke kusher I know you lovin how I do it when I switch up the nizzame skinny nigga Diggy in ya city getting chizzange like I'm Carmelo, meet me in the gizzame yammin on you sucka niggas, yammin on these HOES roll swishers in the whip, with the pistol quick as now whiskey motherfucka, we up in this bitch hoes love cooder (cudder), smooth duder, cudua I am climbing, I am climbing, and I know why “ [2] I could go on providing songs pertaining to marijuana, sex, and other drugs but I will stop for now. Essentially the core basis of a vast portion of Cudi's music is about getting high and engaging in sexual activity, straying away from moral messages that the bands I advocate for teach. The four bands I advocate for are the following:Linkin Park, Broken Bells, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and Incubus C2: The four bands I defend are significantly more successful than Kid Cudi. Red Hot Chili Peppers: “After being named a finalist in September 2011 and failing to make the final cut the previous two years, on December 7, 2011 the Red Hot Chili Peppers were announced as part of the Class of 2012 inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.” [3] Linkin Park: Linkin Park has sold over 50 million albums worldwide and has won two Grammy Awards. [4] Incubus: Incubus has completed multi-platinum sales. The song Make Yourself reached the Gold certification (500,000 copies sold) . [5] http://www.youtube.com...http://www.youtube.com...;http://www.youtube.com...http://www.youtube.com...; The Broken Bells aren't necessarily a successful band yet for they are rather new but their music is still great and that will be shown later. C3: The content of the music of the bands are significantly better. Since my opponent forfeited, I won't explain how they are good but will leave them for you to decide: “Anna Molly” by Incubus is a play on the word “anomaly”, or something distinctively different and rare. “The High Road” is an extremely deep song that contemplates isolation, conflict, and finding the “high road”, or the good life. The video somewhat explains itself and has a deeper meaning than the black and white lyrics express. “Tell Me Baby” shows the tumultuous experience of reaching success in the entertainment world. “Iridescent” by Linkin Park contemplates the bad moments of live such as devastation and “letting it go”.
