Is ROCK Dead?

Queensyrsche's guitar player said "Rock's pretty much dead" in an interview with Ultimate Guitar a few years ago. The comment secton was filled with hate, probably because everyone who plays guitar doesn't wanna believe it, or maybe they are not visionaries like Steve Jobs, or they just don't really listen to the radio or go out on weekends.


I mean, seriously, just turn on the radio. What will you hear? Fall Out Boy (who don't even have guitar sound at this point). Royal Blood. New Metallica. Greeta Van Fleet (a Led Zeppelin cover band in terms of their sound...) I mean, don't get me wrong. I love almost all of these, and Metallica is still kicking ass. Foo Fighters are still kicking ass (and that new music video shows it!) real time. But they belong to the old school of rock, and have probably continued making music in order to pay their bills. New modern metal bands are still there, and surprisingly coming really quick to the scene (Fearless Records, Eclipse Records, riserecords sign great new metalcore/nu-metal/djent bands on A DAILY BASIS!), but that iconic rock sound that Led Zeppelin or AC/DC had? I don't think you can hear that anymore. I'm not just talking sound-wise, I'm reffering to the rebelious mindset and provocative lyrics, coupled with the raw, dirty guitar sound.


Sure, sure, the music is evolving. Currently, it is just in to be a Soundcloud rapper. That's just a fact. Put on some face tatoos, find a sample beat, write some lyrics and you have a pretty high chance of becoming well-known. Trap is at its peak right now. EDM in general, the clubs are just screaming, and people are dancing like there's no tomorrow. 


It's all fine though. The rock era is going to come again. And it will become extinct again. Evolution is happening and it it all good... As long as there is creativity, and we have musicians like J Cole, Joyner Lucas and Logic who are spreading a positive messages and are not afraid to tell the truth... Hey, I can't complain.

Here's why you should at least TRY having an online business

I won't start talking about how good it is to work from home, just because it isn't ideal for everyone, and there is no point in making someone believe it. However, what I wanna focus on is the fact that there are no rules when it comes to online success, and that can be a good thing. Yesterday, I was listening to some Pink Floyd, it was the most viewed video of Comfortably Numb. Funny enough, it was uploaded by a random fan, and it has 28 million views. It was his only video, and he stated that he didn't want anyone to subscribe just because he wasn't going to upload any more songs or anything on the channel. But of course, with 28 million views... that is impossible to avoid, and right at this second, his channel is sitting on 88 000 subscribers. And I thought to myself: "Damn, that is crazy! He could be making a living from these kind of numbers if he continued making non-copyrighted videos." All I'm trying to say is - some blogs or businesse

'THIS IS AMERICA' - Is it the greatest music video ever?

Donald Glover just released a very controversial music video a few days, which obviously made everyone lose their minds, and kinda go "Yes, that is America." There is really a lot going on in the video, and it just shows how big of an artist Gambino really is... Probably all the YouTube reactors reacted to this video already. And those who were thinking about started doing a YouTube reaction channel... started reacting to videos after this particular video was released. The main two scenes in the video are, obviously, the most striking ones - the two murders. The video starts with Glover just dancing, shaking his body in a really funny way, shirtless with pants on... Everyone who watches it is just smiling all the way through. Suddenly, he just grabs a gun and kills the guitar man, without any particular reason. After that controversial scene, he kinda continues dancing, more dancers come into the scene and everyone is kinda starting to get what he is trying

The First Post!

MooYourself was initally a website made to motivate and empower people with a simple quote, message or a video, EVERY SINGLE DAY. The website was made to be very simple, with no other drop down menus or anything - the only page on the website was the home page, where the motivational content was displayed (and of course, social media links at the right top corner of that page). Nothing too crazy, I mean it was made to be as simple as it gets, just because there already are many blogs with just too much ads, pictures, pop-up banners and all that stuff, it was something different and very distinctive. Since then, our Facebook and Twitter profiles grew quite a bit, and there was no need to keep the website itself alive, because you could upload motivational content directly to social networks and engage with people easier, directly. However, I just feel like writing comes natural to a person - everyone has a need to express himself through something, to talk and discuss about dif
