Description
Who the hell needs talent and creativity anymore? Just use a few dumb Emo lyrics and you won´t even need colours or a nice concept. Be uncreative, be stereotyped, be without any statement and your work will definetely become a favourite.What I like to say is: Many people at DA use lyrics written by Emo bands. Hey, so do I. But all these people put a lot of work, a little love and a small piece of their soul in their poems, pictures and avatars. They look for a nice background, they choose the colours carefully and they think about a concept, about a special statement within their work.
I don´t think that these people are worth being overlooked because of other people using popular Emo lyrics with the result of getting all the attention.
Being creative doesn´t mean copying popular words on a white background. Being creative doesn´t mean putting a blinking smiley next to the words and calling it "individual".
Being creative means giving people the chance to take a peek into your soul by creating more than just a few black letters on a white screen...

Umm, no i have lyrics on a lot of my art, they are favoured for the art as said in the comments I get.
No one favours for lyrics, thats just stupid.
But I had some idiot link this to me, pissed me the fuck off.

Awww I know, seems that word is burned into my vocabulary now.
Just accept the fact that I listen to that music, and i get inspired and draw with it.
Honestly there was no reason for you to reply to my comment.

Maybe they just like Linkin Park :]?
I love them myself, and I know a lot of people who do, and they aren't emo. They're just a great band <3
Linkin Park is NOT emo therefore, it wouldn't be right to use them as an example.

I agree D: It's not a 'style' anymire (if it ever was one) it's an obsession. None of them are 'unique' or 'original' -_- if you get five pictures of 5 totally different emo boys, you'd swear they'd all look the freaking same. it's annoying.

I love this. I'm so tired of stupid emo kids thinking they're individuals even though they've stickered themselves with the label. I like your bluntness with this. I hope many people find it offensive. That would make me laugh!

Okay, READ, people, READ.
This deviation says nothing about emo people themselves. And in the Artist Statement the deviant clarifies that this is aimed at the people who just use cheap tricks to get their deviations noticed. I'm sure each and every one of you have seen at least one deviation and thought, hmmm. I think that's just attention whoring right there.
From the statement:
"What I like to say is: Many people at DA use lyrics written by Emo bands. Hey, so do I. But all these people put a lot of work, a little love and a small piece of their soul in their poems, pictures and avatars. They look for a nice background, they choose the colours carefully and they think about a concept, about a special statement within their work.
I don´t think that these people are worth being overlooked because of other people using popular Emo lyrics with the result of getting all the attention.

Seriously!
Even a totally shitty drawing will get favs if it has emo-band lyrics.
And people putting up their shitty poems, pretending to be 'dark', they're just trying too hard.
Totally pathetic.

Oh, that's just great. "Don't just put lyrics on a white backround!" What does it look like you're doing right now? Hypocrite. Why don't you try to understand emos before you rag on them, huh? It might give you just a little bit more credibility.

Wow, it takes talent to come up with something as stupid as this thing. And I'm mean really. Thats not really nice. AT ALL.
And I'm not gonna be a loser, even more then I already am and explain why this is so stupid because just by looking at it you can tell.
And plus emo=emotional person
