however I think if your music is lame commercial dross, then any kind of bad boy image doesn't mean diddly scrumpet. bad boy pop star has to walk the walk and talk the talk...

You make a good point, a bad boy doesn't play by the rules.
unless he wants to make money of his music that is. lol
You made me think of Odd future, these guys are always giving the middle finger to record labels priding themselves that they could do it on their own. (and they kinda did)
yet they used the same tactics the record labels use to get their fame but only with a sprinkle of rebellion.
