I just bought my 7 year old cousin an iPod...

[Sera]

and now I have to fill it. I want to make sure I'm not forgetting anything:
I have 4GB (bought him a nano) and I want it to be full of awesome shit that will make him forget about the goddamn jonas brothers. Am I forgetting anything, spam?

[Kiarax]

You forgot some good artists.

[Kiarax]

I mean really, Beatles?

[Kiarax]

Nvm I see Run DMC and Bob Marley on there, acceptable.

[Olo401]

A 7 year old that's into SOAD?

[Sera]

i just don't want him listening to dumb shit on that ipod, and if i fill it with good shit i know his mom won't change the songs

[Olo401]

And if you're putting QOTSA on there you might as well do Kyuss too.

[Sera]

he's going to get BYOB, toxicity, aerials and chop suey
what 7 year old should be without those? i mean really

[TheShadyMan]

I'm gonna go with age-inappropriate gift.

[Sera]

Ehhh he knows QOTSA songs from his Guitar Hero/Rock Band video games, and likes it so I included them (though i also love them)

[Sera]

I'm gonna go with age-inappropriate gift.

he asked for it, actually

he said "i want an ipod with good old songs like what you and mommy like"
his mom was like "too expensive" but i found a good cheap one on craigslist

[Brill Weave]

You forgot some good artists.

ahahahahahahahaha!

[Sera]

that's basically why i posted: who am i forgetting? halp

[Ragnell]

No 2pac?
No lupe?
No Em?
No TI?

Wat

[Sera]

Ehhhh that's where i kinda drew the "age appropriate" line
i was really tempted to put some lupe, but come on -- eminem and tupac? shit, why don't i just load it with the jay-z discography and leave it at that

[Sera]

shit i can throw on some three 6 while i'm at it
every mom wants their kid to stay doe boy fresh, right

[Ryko]

busta

[Sera]

hahah - i could actually get away with that i think, ok, adding it

[TheShadyMan]

Bad Religion, he might not like it now, but one day he'll decide to listen to it and like it.

Seven year olds are really growing up fast nowadays. All these themes about love, sex, and drugs they don't really need neatly wrapped in a package with a ribbon on top.
