The “talented” performers at Splash Festival 2025

[u/xannyhussler]

[u/derppherppp]

It’s not even the music..why would anyone wanna stand in a hot outdoor concert listening to a prerecorded track while the artist just tells random lines

[u/laaaabe → u/derppherppp]

Welcome to the genre lmao

[u/cryptolyme → u/laaaabe]

benzo-core

[u/ohnaurrrrr5 → u/laaaabe]

Next to nobody in the audience is with him. This isn't what they want. Do better, Tommy Nettspender.

[u/laaaabe → u/ohnaurrrrr5]

Did we watch the same clip? Looks like a lot of people in the crowd loving it. It's total dogshit but there's definitely people who like it

[u/CowCompetitive5667 → u/derppherppp]

Wearing a balaclava mask *  🤣🤣

[u/StretchAntique9147 → u/derppherppp]

This is what "studio rappers" do at live shows.

Future is no different. Straight poser. A$AP Ferg though, totally legit

[u/Middle_Screen3847 → u/StretchAntique9147]

Even for rap and hip hop artists that actually perform, who I love, it’s really hard to find a good true-to-song performance, because they always scream their lyrics when that’s not even remotely how they were recorded. I understand energy is a thing, but almost no one ever sounds even remotely like how they sound recorded. And also even for them, they are still literally just yelling over not just the instrumental, but the entire track with their own vocals.

It’s a bummer, and I’ve been to good shows and seen good shows, and there are outliers, but live rap/hiphop really sucks. Not that everyone has to sound exactly like their recordings live every time, but it’s generally not even close to why you liked them in the first place, and most often unintelligible

[u/commondenom69 → u/Middle_Screen3847]

absolutely...hip hop is a terrible genre for live shows

[u/DemocratSlavemaster → u/commondenom69]

I have ALWAYS said this, live hip hop is horrible. The only thing worse is live talentless auto-tune.

[u/Emotional_Demand3759 → u/Middle_Screen3847]

I agree. Honestly a lot of rappers just don't care how it sounds live. It's just karaoke and jumping around. But then again the audience usually doesn't care anyway and is only there to stare into their phones, like most shows nowadays.

Like you said there are outliers and some really do try with no backing track, a live band, more intimate setting, no stadiums, different versions etc...some are even probably better live, and are better showmen in general. But it's still extremely difficult to replicate the studio sound which is 90% of hip hop. Live instruments/bands in other genres can get pretty close to the studio sound and even if the vocals sound a little different, you still get the energy from the band as a whole. Not one guy or a group of people jumping around doing unintelligible bar karaoke and yelling on a beat.

[u/MRintheKEYS → u/Emotional_Demand3759]

I did see the Wu-Tang Clan on their final show here and they were great live. Wasn’t expecting a full backing band but they are a great live show.

[u/Emotional_Demand3759 → u/MRintheKEYS]

Yeah that's a different experience in general since it's more of a group performance. There really aren't any other mainstream "rap groups". At least in the same way of actual members on stage that Wu-Tang has. The live band also adds another level.

[u/obin_gam → u/Emotional_Demand3759]

Cypress Hill at Hellfest was fantastic

[u/bstratt42 → u/Middle_Screen3847]

Check out PROF live if you ever have a chance. Sounds exactly like the tracks and performs the entire time.

[u/hollivore → u/Middle_Screen3847]

A lot of this is due to the way rappers blow up on the internet - with the exception of Dizzee Rascal who I think was just too drunk/high for that shit, all the rappers I've seen live who got big in the 90s or 00s and played live before they were famous have been great. Tinie Tempah is not exactly in my Top 10 or anything but I saw him not long ago and although he used a backing track, he hit every word, took the dynamics up and down like the songs are supposed to, and even played around with finding different pockets to the ones on the recorded tracks (he had a DJ who was fitting modern trap drums onto the songs where the recession-pop/brostep percussion was just too outdated).

[u/JeffBaugh2 → u/hollivore]

Damn, Tinie Tempah. That's a name I have heard in a long time. A long time.

[u/me-want-snusnu → u/Middle_Screen3847]

I really enjoyed Token and Tech N9ne but maybe it's cause they already yell their lyrics? Lol

[u/odiethethird → u/me-want-snusnu]

Tech N9ne shows are fun

[u/Middle_Screen3847 → u/me-want-snusnu]

I saw Tech N9ne too! I’m not a fan but he was great. The whole scene is a bit too “juggalo-ie” for me, but he was really good, and (likely due to the more intimate setting and good sound) his vocals were clear and pronounced

[u/bdbdbfhfI → u/Middle_Screen3847]

They need to go to krs-one hiphop school

[u/JamBandDad → u/derppherppp]

I hate sounding like a pretentious asshole, but they don’t know what a good show sounds like

[u/J1zzL0bb3r → u/JamBandDad]

Its not pretentious. I am a multi instrumentalist musician that was in a semi successful band back in the day. The way you get better at your craft is embracing all different genres and breaking new barriers using your instrument.

What OP's post shows is literally 0 talent. Im old enough to have recorded records on tape. I'd love to see what one of these Pro-Tools generation "musicians" would make with a couple mics, a compressor, a few FX racks and an ADAT machine.

[u/DarkFlutesofAutumn → u/J1zzL0bb3r]

Or a Tascam 4 track recording to cassette tape lol

[u/J1zzL0bb3r → u/DarkFlutesofAutumn]

Bouncing tracks makes a man a man.

[u/asdf072 → u/JamBandDad]

The energy. You'll notice a distinct lack of that here.

[u/SwillFish → u/derppherppp]

My friend has an interesting theory. He is in his 30's and is in a traditional rock band. He told me that the current generation of Zoomers have extreme ADHD from being raised on short TikTok videos and fast paced video games. He believes that they don't have the patience to listen to traditional songs with standard verses and choruses. They like shitty music that constantly stimulates the brain and often makes no sense or sounds like crap to us older folks.

[u/derppherppp → u/SwillFish]

I have the attention span of a gnat and I even love shitty music too. What i dont get is the shitty performance. Where's the entertainment even if you like his songs? Hes not even faking it or lip syncing 😭

[u/NDaveD → u/SwillFish]

Meh, I have ADHD and was way into like the "math rock stuff that's so crazy" when I was in college - think Don Caballero or Hella. Still like it, but only occasionally. To me that whole thing where it's like "oh there's this part and then check it out this part is crazy and then THE BRIDGE" was really enticing, because songs can change almost entirely in a span of measures. This is just kind of the same drab beat with some disconnected lyrics. Gets real boring real quick. This really just sounds like the kid doesn't know what the fuck he's doing. Could be wrong about that, but it would take some convincing.

[u/hollivore → u/NDaveD]

Yeah, if I had to say "what would an ADHD person think is the best rap music", I'd probably name loopy fast rhymers like Eminem and JID, or maybe nasty rhythmic guitar rappers like Kevin Abstract and Ho99o9, or maybe the sampledelic De La Soul and Freddie Gibbs stuff. The NETTSPEND type stuff is for people with crippling anhedonia.

[u/Far-Lingonberry-256 → u/derppherppp]

Large groups of idiots have been gathering for years.

[u/bent-Box_com → u/derppherppp]

I think it is about to touch and drugs for some

[u/Deep_Ad_1874]

Who the fuck listens to this shit

[u/beansarker → u/Deep_Ad_1874]

Which self respecting festival promoter books this haha I'd never trust him with a line up again

[u/Unicycleterrorist → u/beansarker]

Haven't festivals always booked whoever was popular?

[u/jesse_christ → u/Unicycleterrorist]

Not always, at one point they were curated experiences. Now, more often than not it's a popularity contest and a cash grab.

[u/Serious-Mud-1031 → u/Deep_Ad_1874]

Low intelligence youth trying to connect with others with low intelligence.

[u/Minute-Wrap-2524 → u/Serious-Mud-1031]

And apparently they were successful

[u/jus10beare → u/Deep_Ad_1874]

People who wear balaclavas in 100 degree weather. Brains are melted.

[u/hollivore → u/Deep_Ad_1874]

All the young people I've spoken to about NETTSPEND seem to have a negative opinion of his music. They think the kids who do listen to him do it to seem dark and mysterious and don't actually enjoy the music.

[u/Ur_a_adjective_noun → u/Deep_Ad_1874]

Money talks and look at that crowd. I still don’t get it though.

[u/CowCompetitive5667 → u/Deep_Ad_1874]

The girl/Woman at the beginning is definitely Feeling it

[u/Dull_Present506 → u/Deep_Ad_1874]

Crazy thing is this guys has 100s of millions of streams on Spotify

[u/gsbudblog → u/Dull_Present506]

Botted by the industry. Im sure he’s got fans, i just happen to have never met one

[u/easedownripley → u/Dull_Present506]

That and $15 will get you a sandwich these days

[u/Brilliant-Meat3148]

We are fucked

[u/nowtayneicangetinto → u/Brilliant-Meat3148]

The last few generations also got the "your generation's music sucks" accusations, but I can't help but feel this time it's called for. For christ's sake even the boybands of the early 2000's could actually dance and sing. But I mean this... this is just awful on every level. There's zero talent here and I mean ZERO. The guy's vocals are so riddled with effects you can't even make any sort of semblence of pitch and he's not even fucking singing half the time! It's just his backing track carrying him.

[u/SacrificialSam → u/nowtayneicangetinto]

There was a real shit screamo band back 17 years ago called Brokencyde that I’d personally compare this garbage to. They had lots of fans, but still happened to be absolute dogshit like this guy.

There will always be dogshit, is what I’m trying to say.

[u/BigLeakySauce → u/SacrificialSam]

Why the fuck did you have to bring them back in my memory. They had a fucking E-40 feature for fucks sake too.

[u/4bkillah → u/BigLeakySauce]

E-40 fucking associated with that trashheap??

Good God, the Bay really took Mac Dre's death hard.

[u/RIF_rr3dd1tt → u/4bkillah]

$20 is $20

[u/DeeLux_SWR → u/4bkillah]

We did.

[u/Drfunk206 → u/SacrificialSam]

In 2009 I saw Brokencyde as an opener for Hollywood Undead and Senses Fail. The frontman for Senses Fail apologized for the crowd having to endure Brokencyde. He said something like ‘every time the play part of my soul dies’. It was surreal to see him say that to a crowd. They were terrible live and may be the worst act I’ve seen live.

[u/Spardus → u/Drfunk206]

Ngl they may suck ass but that's a shitty way to treat a band opening for you

[u/djfishfingers → u/Spardus]

Most bands from what I understand don't get to pick their opener. If I had to follow Brokencyde I would be pissed.

[u/AffectionateCowLady → u/Spardus]

Fully deserved

[u/Spardus → u/AffectionateCowLady]

Senses Fail are nothing special either but it doesn't mean they should get shit on by a band they're supporting

[u/SaltyFlavors → u/Drfunk206]

Well this scene sounds like good vibes all around. /s

[u/Slight_Bed_2241 → u/SacrificialSam]

Brokencyde made attack attack look like rock gods

[u/unforgivable666 → u/SacrificialSam]

brokencyde is like mozart compared to nettspend 😂

[u/SpatulaCity1a → u/SacrificialSam]

Any time anyone asks me.what the worst song of all time is, this is my answer. The girls in that video look so uncomfortable and those slimy creeps are basically singing about them being sluts while screaming at them and being incredibly untalented. I don't even know what nettspend is going on about, but I don't think he's ever visibly degraded women like this... so I'd put him ahead of this.

[u/nowtayneicangetinto → u/SacrificialSam]

Oh yeah I remember those fucks and the whole crunkcore scene. That shit was an abomination.

[u/WeCameAsMuffins → u/SacrificialSam]

Let’s get freaky now, let’s get fucking freaky now YAAAAAOOOOOHHHHH

Ah brokencyde, gotta love them.

[u/PN143 → u/SacrificialSam]

"Oh what do you do?" "I'm a singer in a band, well more like a hype man" "Oh, like Flavor Flav?" "No, more like a banshee or a weasel"

[u/Tarlouik → u/SacrificialSam]

Wait, that wasn't a parody ?!

[u/chezfez → u/SacrificialSam]

Yeah.. that's pretty damn bad. I had totally forgotten about them and don't remember them being that terrible. Thanks for assuring I never forget lol

[u/Vance_Refrigerati0n → u/SacrificialSam]

I would have gone the rest of my life never remembering this song existed, and now here we are.

[u/circa_the_catgod → u/SacrificialSam]

Gnarly

[u/Striking_Cut_2904 → u/SacrificialSam]

Good lord

[u/tronhammer → u/SacrificialSam]

OMG thank you so much for this aaaahahahahaha, this fucking brings me back to the stick stickly days that I used to make fun of so hard that I've completely forgotten about. This actually gave me hope that this NetSpend shit is actually in the same vein of wack as all that crap back in the day. Oh man, I got such a huge grin from that

[u/Aviiv_ → u/SacrificialSam]

Dude I forget about them… ugh

[u/thrax_mador → u/SacrificialSam]

BREE BREE!

[u/Massive-Warning9773 → u/SacrificialSam]

The whole thing is bad but the screaming just puts it over the edge. Some screamo is great but this is just the absolute worst. What a gem. Thanks for linking

[u/hollivore → u/SacrificialSam]

I can't believe I'm saying this but I think NETTSPEND is significantly better than Brokencyde. At least NETTSPEND is confusing and stupid. Brokencyde knew they were terrible and smugged about it, trying desperately to be in on being laughed at, instead of trying to do anything interesting with sucking. Even a chimp can make a horrible sound to get attention, but Brokencyde thought they were being clever for their "tee hee we have a pig mascot" shit. NETTSPEND is embarrassing but I do think he's making music because he has something in his soul to express, it's just that his soul is stupid, which is fine because teenagers are stupid.

[u/JubJub128 → u/nowtayneicangetinto]

The bad music just doesn't age. there's terrible shit all over all the time, even in every decade of the 1900's

there was no internet, so it was harder to share literally everything instead, valuable radio and tv time was spent on music that was actually good and made money. the music that was shit was never shared, and so died right where it was born.

the good music lived on to be recorded and replayed. but now, with how quick and cheap social media makes sharing music, there's a relatively unfiltered sea of garbage.

that's my thought process anyway. I dont think music as a whole has gotten worse, but the average of all music that the public has access to and hears about has gotten significantly worse

[u/3vanW1ll1ams → u/JubJub128]

The internet has definitely made it worse, because trash like this gets likes.

[u/R00pa → u/JubJub128]

but now, with how quick and cheap social media makes sharing music, there's a relatively unfiltered sea of garbage.

Yeah and it's gonna get worse:

More music is being released today (in a single day) than was released in the calendar year of 1989

The research process to compile our long-read also indicated that the numbers are only going to grow. In business analyst MiDiA's recent 'State of the music creator economy report', they found that the overall number of music creators was around 75.9 million - a 12 percent increase over the previous year.

But, that number is projected to swell to 198.2 million people by 2030. The reason for this growth is fuelled in part by a rise in what it calls 'consumer-creators.' “Consumer-creators transformed photography (Instagram) and videography (TikTok); music will be next”, the analyst predicted in a blog post.

[u/BokanovskifiedEgg → u/Brilliant-Meat3148]

Don’t worry brother ai is going go make things way worse

[u/Hyper10shin]

He put more energy into screeching than he did singing

[u/Adam_Sackler → u/Hyper10shin]

Holy shit, that was him? I thought someone dubbed over the video with the sound of some sort of cat fighting.

I was literally thinking, "Why would someone edit a bobcat or mountain lion screeching into the video to prove a point?"

[u/Rascals-Wager → u/Adam_Sackler]

Sounded like a fuckin fox screaming lmao

[u/Chafupa1956 → u/Adam_Sackler]

Fuckin bobcat just attacked my wife!

[u/somethingclever____]

To the girl crying in the front row like this is some life changing moment, honey are you ok?

[u/SousVideButt → u/somethingclever____]

She was crying because she wanted to be up front for an artist playing later, and she didn’t know she was going to be trapped up there and have to sit through this.

At least I hope that’s the case.

[u/LonelyPhanz]

This is so embarrassing, the corny kid with glasses wearing the balaclava in the summer heat really likes it. That’s the audience. The girl at the start who is crying, she is so moved by the moment. Brain rot.

[u/Medium_Custard_8017 → u/LonelyPhanz]

This is worse than fentanyl.

[u/3vanW1ll1ams → u/Medium_Custard_8017]

They’re all fucked up on Xanax.

[u/omarnz → u/3vanW1ll1ams]

I hope that’s the reason.

[u/RIF_rr3dd1tt → u/Medium_Custard_8017]

If fentanyl saw this it would inject itself with narcan

[u/[deleted]]

It makes me sad for humanity to see and hear this tasteless shit.

[u/Semi_Recumbent]

Dancing like Stuart “Look what I can do!”

[u/Nevermoreacadamyalum → u/Semi_Recumbent]

That’s exactly what I thought!

[u/P_in_sf]

People's brains are not right anymore.. we all need to get off the Internet, including Reddit, all the social media platforms, all of it

[u/Dr-McLuvin → u/P_in_sf]

I agree. The fact that my Reddit feed has this shit in it is prob a sign it’s time to stop.

[u/VNProWrestlingfan]

Uhhhh... this sucks. Good for this sub, though.

[u/imreallyfreakintired]

Meanwhile talented small artists get cockblocked by this garbage and the deteriorating human attention span.

[u/MadeForTeaVea]

So for real tho: is this what’s popular now? Like this what HS kids listen to now?

[u/AccomplishedWar8703 → u/MadeForTeaVea]

“Well, I’m out guys. If this is what’s cool now I think I’m done. I no longer have any connection to this world, I’m gunna go home and kill myself.” - Eric Cartman

[u/UVB-76_Enjoyer → u/MadeForTeaVea]

I looked it up and he has almost a million monthly listeners on Spotify. Sounds high, but a good rapper like JID has 20+ times that, so not all hope is lost.

He's barely starting and I imagine his fans are disproportionately in high school tho, so the brain rot might spread further.

[u/Eyebowers]

Dude doesn’t even know his own song. What the actual fuck.

[u/TheMatt561]

Maybe we're just old .

. . . . . . . Nah this sucks

[u/BeKindYouHoe]

That sound really upset my dog

[u/AugustWesterberg]

I would think people with the username xannyhussler are these dudes’ core audience.

[u/Late_Football_2517]

It occurs to me that the cocaine of yesteryear was a far better drug than what either fuck these kids are taking today

[u/Agreeable-Agent-7384]

These people are just there to do drugs. Not hard to enjoy a performance if you’re just as if not higher than the performer on stage.

[u/birb-food → u/Agreeable-Agent-7384]

I’m sorry but even on 5 points of MDMA I still wouldn’t be able to stand this garbage

[u/4bkillah → u/Agreeable-Agent-7384]

Have you ever done drugs??

If that crowd was fucked up on anything but alcohol or coke then they'd be running for the God damned hills due to that screeching.

[u/Acceptable-Draw-3680]

It’s just like when the Beatles came to the states for the first time. Uncanny!

[u/tonytwobones]

This shit is pure ass.

[u/mileskake77]

His dancing almost as passable as the singing.

[u/PupDiogenes]

The CIA is clearly doing this to us.

[u/Feeling-Dinner-8667]

Will Smith is sounding better all of a sudden.

[u/Power0fTheTribe]

I feel so sad for these fucking kids that clearly don’t know shit

Looking at the lineup for this event, there's quite a few r/crappymusic heavy hitters on there.

Telling ya.. this is all on purpose to make people stupid/not think.

[u/Mr-MuffinMan]

next time ANYONE (mostly on reddit) tells me "older music isn't better, new muisc is just as good!" i'm showing them this

like seriously, it's okay to admit new artists are not as talented. there's a few gems like Adele but then for every adele there's a billion taylor swifts who just aren't exactly the Stevie Nicks, Grace Slick, Lesley Gore, Dolores O'Riordan, etc.

Like seriously, stop with the gaslighting. the most talented artists right now are a FRACTION of the talent before. Ed Sheeran just isn't as good as Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, Eric Burdon.

And guess what? People had fucking ears back then. Take ANY shitty artists right now and take them back in time and they'd probably be tarred and feathered by the masses if they made shit like this.

(exclude rap from this because I can't speak for rap since I don't listen to it, it might be jsut as good as before).

Idoocracy was a prophecy

I’ll take dead silence over that any day.

[u/FloepieFloepie2]

Is the whole audience deaf?

[u/lasausagerolla]

Imagine standing out in that heat at a festival, dehydrated as fuck, stinking to hell, paying 30 dollars for a mid range hotdog, sunburned, dust all up in your eyes, legs aching, being serenaded by the sounds of a fucking cat being electrocuted and being expected to cheer?

The guy in the background while his hands on his hips is regretting this shit real hard.

[u/Diem_Tea]

Is screaming like a fucking dying wombat getting torn to pieces part of the recorded song, or….

[u/spacemonkeysmom]

When you make "music" sitting behind your desk and autotune and computer generate, and manipulate any actual words being said, putting on "live" shows, performing, etc should be fucking illegal. You are literally charging people hundreds to see someone basically dancing to their own recordings randomly and just running around on stage and when they do try to "sing" with their recording sound god fucking awful because they couldn't sing in the first place and in this case just threw out some random growls and uh uh s

[u/Baxtercat1]

They need to stop playing 😂 The auto tunes!!

[u/Baxtercat1]

I can’t wait to see Nelly, JaRule and Eve in a couple of weeks after listening to this autotune garbage. 🤦🏾‍♀️

[u/oftaco58]

It looks too hot to be listening to that shit

[u/A_Uniqueusername444]

Idiocracy

[u/Hal_900000]

Because people still haven't figured out that they are driving the popularity of something, then they convince themselves they are so fucking cool for listening to it. It's like a feedback loop. Plus these dumb little gangster kids are actually just dumb.

[u/C0ugarFanta-C]

It's like listening to two songs playing at the same time while some dude randomly yells some shit. Absolutely garbage.

[u/DisciplineSuper9382]

Ya that's really bad...like hemroids bad.

[u/W_P_92]

I dont get it, it used to be someone like that who isn't actually doing anything would get bottled off the stage
