Let me see.........Slash earns about ohhhh lets say 15,000,000 yearly....and you fucking clowns collect welfare and slam whatever anyone seems to be doing that is not pertinent to what you idiots may or may not consider to be heavy metal or hard rock....it takes a real smart fucker ....like yourselves for example...to bring to our attention that slash should apparently not be playing for anyone other than guns n roses,or solo,which you also slam for having fergie guest...ok ok enough...you get the picture...you stupid fuckers are about as retarded as they come......sorry to be so blunt...but being as dumb as you are i had to put it in laymans terms....hope you get the message....

Hope you dumb fuckers enjoy the rest of your day,in the basement pulling your little joystick and wishing you had the balls to come out of your mothers basement and face the real world.

The only difference is that Michael Jackson had GOOD music. Now, Slash is just playing on songs by god-awful corporate slave 'artists'

Slash has lost touch completely. I hope he hooks up playing guitar for Chris Cornell next. Could you imagine the garbage those two would make. They've probably already run into each other at a No Doubt concert. What a couple of pussies for alienating the fans that made them who they are by getting involved with complete poser top 40 pop acts and producers.

Just like to point out that his collaboration with Michael Jackson was music history in the making, the subsequent collaborations were a joke. 'Give into me' is a killer tune and Slash at his best. Black eyed peas is a joke, MJ dripped in talent and I classify it an honor for Slash to have been able to play on a MJ record.

Someone said something about Slash crying out to Axl. I only wished that was true, but, with that being said, Axl, if you're reading this, take Slash back, restore his legacy. Teach him the ways of retaining 'rock God' status.

After this album gets released, when you mention the "Rated R" album people are gonna be like "Oh yeah, the Rihanna one?"

Queens of the Stone Age's "Rated R" 1,000,000x > Rihanna "Rated R"

I haven't heard the Rihanna one but it can't be better because QOTSA's is one of the best albums ever

Slash is just playing smart for going commercial and feature on Pop artist albums. As in matter a fact he's doing you all and Rock fans in general a favor as this is the only way of getting Rock back to the masses: mixing it with Pop.

Just like they mix Hip Hop with Pop where it's known Hip Pop. A genre currently dying fast because of it incapacity of reaching mass appeal. The stuff is tuneless and monotonous so thus incapable of getting people to buy music. The industry needs to diversify more than ever, and that means getting Rock music back as a main commercial force.

I do not think Slash should have anything to do with BEP, nor do I think he should mix with Kanye West or Timbaland. The Hip Pop sound is going out of fashion. What he should do is sticking to his Rock roots and add it to Pop music. Fergie, Rihanna, Nicole Sherzinger etc. are all capable of delivering a Rock vocal performance.

So we get Pop Rock back. And so we get a newly found interest in Slash. And so we get a new interest in Classic Rock music. My point of view, IMO.

"...this guy proclaims himself as a rock and roll musician, yet he refuses to reunite with Axle and Co. and would rather play Disturbia. I'm not even a GNR fan, but that is disrespectful to his fans who have waited so long."

He refuses? Who the hell are you, his tour manager? Come on, give the guy a break. AXL Rose MOVED ON, he doesn't care about the old lineup and playing the same old songs again with the old band. As a matter of fact, AXL got new guys, new sound and experimented a little on Chi.-Dem with electronic, etc.

OK, the result is not great.

Slash, forget about it. Slash and CO will NOT reunite with GNR, and to be honest, it's OVER, it's all in the past. Indeed time to MOVE ON.

It's probably the same with Dave Jr Ellefson & Megadeth - Mustaine has a great new band. He will NOT take Jr back for the simple reason that he doesn't need him anymore. If you think Mustaine could get Jr back, you're f'ing dreaming.

I'll re-post the same comment I did in another Slash news:

Everybody has the right to comment what he thinks of, but:
Are you famous artists?
Are you who need to keep alive in this new World where people aren't buying records and aren't listening too much rock?

First of all, Slash is a guitar player who likes to play guitar, not only Hairy/Metal/Hard Rock guitar. As a truly guitarist he likes to play, it doesn't care who he wants to play with. To say that if he plays with Fergie or with Adam Lambert (I he someday do it?) is a shame is not true, he can play with anybody that he likes, I don't see why all this stupid comments. He likes to play with a lot of people, he always have been that way, that's nothing new, he's never been a mind closed rock player.

I find people talking bullsh*t about he's not a true rock player anymore a really immature position.

And what is that he only cares for commercial things? That's his job you morons, you can't make records only for a few people. Do you realize how many cost a record? Much more now with all this piracy? That is a huge inversion and you can't throw that money without knowing if that record is going to sale. EVERY ARTIST GO TO THE POPULAR MUSIC, the only not popular music is the classical music. Even Pavarotti had to go with a popular festival. Some of you think artists only play for love of music, but that isn't more far from the truth. You can't always ask for your interests they have theirs. F*ck off everybody who thinks he's doing wrong. Although I think some things aren't good ideas, like a version of a classic like Paradise City (what for???) or the remake of any other GNR material, that isn't a reason to satanize him.

If it weren't for his love for playing he had been dissapear with Axl, and maybe he could have died of an overdose many years ago.

So, let the guy alone, he's doing a great job and he's doing what he likes to do and what is making him to stay alive. He's also trying to create a Rock influence in this young artists and that is a really good thing to keep Rock music alive.

God bless Slash for his job.

If this is such a brilliant move, why aren't other respected guitarists collaborating with teenybopper top 40 groups?? There's a reason Clapton, Perry, Beck, etc. are all so respected...and a large part of it has to do with the fact that they never whored themselves out. Collaborating with MJ=Great. The man was a great artist, easy to defend. Collaborating with fucking Fergie and Rihanna? Sorry, but that's just gay.

So look at the history before you blather on about inconsistent bull shit!!! Now on to disrespecting Rihanna. Well guess what, she has more talent as a singer in one of her fingers, than AXL does in his entire body! I mean can AXL put emotion into his fucking songs? HELL NO BITCHES

Oh yeah, now i'd love to see you make an entire album after the beatting Cris gave to her. She has far and above earned a top spot in my fans of list. Cris is the lowest shit in the world to do that to her, and i hope his record sucks worse than AXL's fight with that gay guy. I mean come on, getting your ass bitch slapped by a gay guy, that's pathetic. So go on, flame me, and in response i'll Troll your asses!!!!!!
