I remember when Limp Bizkit fans used to get made fun of cus they'd wear red Yankees hats backwards and dye their hair blonde, the fads kind of fell off with Limp Bizkit though. It's weird they aren't to popular anymore cus no one really came and took their place in the genre, their music wasn't that bad.
Yeah, a friend of mine had an online name that was 'redcapbizkit' or something to that effect. I never had one though.
At my high school, you were either a hip-hopper or a rocker before nu-metal came along in the late nineties. I was always both, maybe cos I'm mixed race and grew up in a family of musicians.
So because of bands like Bizkit, Korn, Linkin Park, RATM, Deftones, everyone at my school was suddently into both genres like I always was, and suddenly I became the 'go-to' person when rockers wanted to know about hip-hop and vice-versa.
I remember copying tapes of DMX and Redman for the rock kids that had heard DMX & Red on the remix to 'Rollin', and Method Man on 'N2Gether Now'.... and Nas and Ice Cube were on tracks with Korn.
Bizkit were easily the biggest band around at the time. I distinctly remember the day 'Take A Look Around' premiered on Radio 1 here in the UK, and everyone was talking about it the next day.
I also distinctly remember the day that the album 'Chocolate Starfish & The Hot Dog Flavored Water' came out. I had been telling everyone about Bizkit since their previous album 'Significant Other' and after that everyone started getting into them.
But when this album dropped, we were on a school trip somewhere. We got to have a break from whatever boring ass museum or wherever we at, so everyone went to the music store, and no joke, EVERYONE copped the album. I'm talking a bus that must have had damn near 100 of us teenagers on it.
That kind of scenario must have been happening everywhere, because the album went platinum in less than one week.
There was a big backlash against Bizkit a couple of years later though. Mainly because Durst had become a fame-hungry cunt by this point.
Anyone that says Bizkit sucked is full of shit though, they made some fucking wicked songs, and Wes Borland is one hell of a guitarist.
