Some bitching

One of my biggest bugbears is when an artist/group user their name as part of their song. This mostly happens in rap, thought Beyonce and Shakira proved that it can happen anywhere, to anyone, at any time.
It just annoys me so much because it's lazy songwriting! "What do we do here, man?" "I know! We'll use our band/artist's name!" "Yeah! That's completely original, and it's sending a message. Because, that's who we/they are!"

Bah.

Then again, a lot of my kind of music has some terrible lyrics as well. Disturbed even use their name in their song Dropping Plates. That doesn't make it right, though.
In fact, it's worse because Disturbed should know better!
