Girl Talk Album: Pay What U Want

This guy is absolutely awful....I saw him as an opening act at Red Rocks last summer, and he had the entire crowd sitting on their asses hoping he would stop....There were about 5-6 people in the first 5 rows who were wearing Pittsburgh Steelers Jerseys (Friends of his from home) who were getting into it.....I would not recommend this guy.

maybe i'll give his albums a try but i caught some of his set at summercamp after sts9...i'm not really into his techno-pop style or whatever, and he sounded pretty amateur-ish to me. i prefer instrumental (no vocals), 'intelligent' dance music, but that's just my opinion....

Girl Talk isn't necessarily for everyone, and that's all there really is to it, much like Country music. But, by no means is Girl Talk Country... but, rather a hodge-podge of pop dance that makes the mind spin from all of the mash-ups he is creating...and that spin makes me, and countless lady friends (who seem to go crazy for GT) dance. Check it out if you want something to dance and bang your head to... if you want to spin in circles and pick flowers this may not be for you.

hmmmm........i recommend you do not listen to the song posted at the top of this page.....

I had one of his discs, forgot what it was called. Great background music for a party or something.

I do like this new 'pay what you want' thing, though

if i'm at a party and near the music controls i try to put on something that people are NOT familiar with. dubstep mixes, electronic jams from archive.org, random interesting/danceable myspace pages...i get pretty bored hearing mash-ups of dance/pop songs i didn't even really like in the first place.

just another reason why pittsburg is worst city in america, they have ass clowns like this guy coming out of the wood work

I had never heard of Girl Talk before, but I had a fucking blast at Summer Camp. Doubt I'll be the album, but I'd see Girl Talk again given the right circumstances.

ugh, this guy isnt real good, so like, dont listen to him

Wow, all you people must be anti-fun or something. It’s not like what Girl Talk does is easy, he is the best sample-based DJ mixing pop right now and is the perfect music at a party. Just non-stop of the sweetest hooks that do wear thin after like the 4th time played BUT he switches it up so fast you don't have time to get irritated by the original artists. He sort of applies the "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade" saying to Top 40 music. Love his shit, and mad props for helping to change the music industry dinosaur.

Free may be too much!

Girl Talk is exteremly hit or miss: I went to Summercamp with 7 other people. The 3 I was with during Girl Talk all loved the set and had a great time dancing. The other 4 who we didn't see there said it was the worst show of the weekend.

That said, Z-Trip does the same thing way better.

Pittsburgh SUCKS, and so does Girl Talk.

The difference between Z-Trip and Girl Talk is that Z-Trip is decent

Oh, and I agree that Pittburgh sucks, but then again, so does the entire Northeast....For someone from Baltimore to ay Pitt. sucks is kinda funny, since the entire region is just grey, polluted, dirty, grimey, and depressing.....Plus the headies out east are barely headies.

i dont understand why any of you guys are even posting if you dont like his music. why would you even read the article if you dislike him that much. leave the posting to people who have sometin good to say. i personally like girl talk and think he puts on an awesome show. summercamp was a blast. why dont all you haters go to PT Bisco. leave jambase for the people who appreciate all kinds of music.

Damn marc. Rockin your hater shades today? Baltimore is fucking utopia compared to Pittsburgh.

I've heard this guy puts on a fun show, but that song sucks. Wow 300 samples in 50 min? Talk about musicianship.

watched his entire set at summercamp

i want my hour back

i dont consider remixing, music, its just taking other peoples music, and making it sound like shit, (most of the time)

as for party music, ill agree with that, i would put on some of his shit at my partys...but im NOT about to go watch him live...

i love girl talk's last album "The Night Ripper", and i personally believe that hes been one of these artists that will only continue to get better due the fact that what it takes for him to make all this music is amazing producing with amazing equipment. His first couple albums i only gave 1 listen to each, but his last one, which there is a huge noticeable difference the producing, was amazing.

I enjoy him and actually dig the track bounce that they have posted. It can get old at times, but I know at parties people really boogie down...though I have had parties where yonder gets everyone crazy!

First of all Marc, for someone from WV you should hate pittsturd too. And come up here to Baltimore. I'll show you headies.

My mistake, I was looking at Danimal's profile. But I maintain about headies. And you can't hate me for hating on Pittsburgh. It's in my B-more blood, plus my moms entire family is from pittsburgh so I have to hold my own all the time. Steeler Suck!

these comment boards blow... even though I just commented on it....I dont blow. a = b b = c but a dont = C hah!

ANOTHER TIGHT ALBUM BY MY MAIN MAN FROM PITTSBURGH BABY

LOVE THAT WIZ KHALIFA SAMPLE

EVERYONE RESPECT AND RECOGNIZE THE HOTTNESS RIGHT HERE

WHO????

this shit is not music this guys is a joke

I wouldn't pay shit for this...This fella would need to pay me a pretty penny to download his garbage.

I understand that some people don't all like the same things muscially but this guy puts on a great show. Places like Red Rocks and other big venues aren't the best for his energy that he can bring to a club. Everytime that I have seen him it is different and everyone is getting the fuck down. I refer his live show to everyone. Also, who gives a shit about "headies" in the NE. What is a "headie" to you MarcSmalls? Is it someone who goes to shows to get fucked up? Is it someone who claims to be environmentally conscious? I believe that it is both because most headies that I know go to shows to get fucked up and they are not environmentally conscious because they have no job and they drive from place to place polluting the air more than anyone else.

excuse me while i sip my hatorade, but this guy is a straight up joke, only the punchline isn't funny at all. i walked past his set at summercamp on my way in between real music happening on other stages, and was not impressed at all... all he does is press a button every now and then and dance next to his gear, while a shitload of idiots dance around on stage with him, trying to create the illusion that what he's doing is good.'m sure it does take him a long time todo all of this but that doesn't mean it takes talent. sometimes the samples aren't even on key together and it just sounds like garbage.

thumbs down.

jesus christ why do all you hatin ass douchebags even get on jambase anymore?? You need to vent some frustration go hit a punching bag or somethig..dude's great at what he does, and for what it is, the music is fun. Keyword FUN. And why in the hell wouldn't it be music?? Just because it's made on a computer doesn't mean it's music? My god...I really enjoyed his summercamp set, but apparently I'm in the minority that likes to have fun.

MIKEMAC..... MY FREIND HEADIES ARE DANK NUGGETS DANK BEERS HELL ANYTHING THATS DANK IS HEADIE.... ON AOTHER NOT HEADIES IS A LAME WORD. sory about caps

im prety shure marc was refering to nuggets

this site is becoming infiltrated by stuck up trust-a-farians who hate everything not associated with UM or STS9. Girl Talk is pure fun enjoy it if you can-I will again @ Lolla. Stop the anonymous hating and make some of your own music if you don't like what you hear, or just get over it.

The button doesn't say "Add My Positive Comment". If people don't like the guy they have every right to say so. Quit being such pussies.

Word Danimal... These message boards would be no fun if everyone said "Oh he is the greatest!" Come on... this guy is just super hyped up. A lot of the indie music gets hyped up for about a month and then you never hear of the band/DJ/whatever the fuck this guy named Girltalk is.

i didn't say it isn't music, it is. it's just not musicianship, not in the least. and i think he has every right to do what he does if he enjoys it, but i don't think he should be able to make people pay for it. if he wants to spin my new years party or my family reunion or somethin, that'd be great.

for you cod haters girltalk is not about great music (i mean he covers top 40 pop songs) its about having a good time an shaking a leg to some nasty beats if you dont like noding your head and bouncing around a bit find something else to get into if some say its good party music why isnt it good music to go see and party to not to much of a differece since a concert involving any dj is really just a party

I too am a big fan of this new wave of "name your price" I somewhat enjoy night ripper and live he can be fun but once uv seen him once thats pretty much it. also I am very happy i chose not to pay for this album because this fad is over and this album blows. oh and LOL @ "he is the best sample-based DJ mixing pop right now" thats because he is the only one, lol.

oh and just for the record he is NOT a DJ he even says so himself.

Girl Talk is just way too ADD for me, and while I appreciate some of the mashup ideas he comes up with and a lot the songs he plays, veering into a new song every 20 seconds makes it impossible for me to enjoy it. I haven't seen him live and have only heard one album, but that is what I took away from Night Ripper. Z-Trip definitely blows him away, but he has been my favorite DJ for a long time, so I am a bit biased.
