YES sis!
I personally don't think nothing is topping Lita and Trish however this fued has a nice backstory with them being "ex best friends" plus the two girls are actually best friends in real life (similar to Trish & Lita) so the chemistry is there.

They aren't bad, AJ has a lot of potential. But I don't think WWE cares enough for the divas to build a new Trish & Lita rn

Thier showing progress though. They've been building this fued pretty well so far and they've been building AJ's character extremely well for the past year now. I think AJ will go down as one of the all time great divas if she keeps on this trajectory. Unlike most of the divas that come and go she's actually a wrestling fan at heart and doesn't have any intrest in other aspects of entertainment, plus she's good on the mic and in the ring. I haven't been excited for any diva like this in a long while

Downloading it for free is completely morally acceptable when the Japanese are deliberately making it unavailable outside of their country. Think about the implications of what you're doing, then think about it in the context of you just wanting to be a fan and hear the music.

To be quite honest, the only thing stopping me at this point is paranoia over a lawsuit. That's a main reason I've bought 95% of my music rather than illegally downloading it.

ffffff

You know the RIAA stopped suing individuals several years ago, and that Japanese + Korean labels...straight up don't sue, period, because we're not in their jurisdiction

When's the last time you heard about an American getting sued for downloading jpop?!

[new evolution]

I've never even heard of someone getting sued over illegally downloading music

hasn't really happened for anyone that wasn't leaking ish since Kazaa days, which I guess is kind of dating myself as most people here are too young to remember Kazaa

IDK if this was posted yet but a radio rip of BoA's new J-Pop single is out:



Nice summery vibe, I can dig it

Anyone else fed up with Japanese labels releasing singles in full to radio/TV before they're actually out? It makes life such a struggle for audiophiles like myself who need the lossless studio version

It's struggle city because they put out the MV like an entire month if not more ahead of the actual purchaseable thing

like HOW is that viable in 2013

That's why I said paranoia, because none of it's logical.

It just reminds me of those kids in elementary school who would sound really scared asking to go to the bathroom, like, it'll be okay. Set yourself free.

Now that last night's mess is over let me get you into Queen AJ Lee sis.

So she started off on NXT which was a reality based competetion show for a WWE contract. She ended up placing third but debuted a a Smackdown diva in 2011 anyway. She got her big break last year when they put her in major love storylines with several of the top male stars. At the end of 2012 she was dating John Cena but betrayed him when she pushed him off a ladder costing him his match at the TLC pay-per-view. Now she's dating the GOD that is Dolph Ziggler.

She's currently in a fued with her ex best friend and current Diva Champion Kaitlyn. Alot of people are saying thier fued has potential to be of the Lita/Trish magnitude. AJ is currently the #1 contender so it's only a matter of time before she snatches the title. Here are some of thier best moments so far:






Sorry to go so off topic but I had to spread the AJ Lee gospel

Thank you. I need to watch a few of her matches, the only one i've seen so far the battle royale were she played possum.

The 15th anniversary ver. is even better.

The state of Japan's music industry makes me so sad. A criminally talented R&B star in the making like her will likely never see a dime of success. She reminds me of how CK's career would look like if she'd premier with her debut single today.
