To any & all who’re insulted or confused about what I said to Levine based solely on headlines from ‘news sites’, it’s being taken completely out of context. Look at the original tweets. To the 90% of these salacious news feeds: DO FUCKING BETTER. Click-bait cunts…

Corey Taylor recently tweeted about Adam Levine ” after the MAROON 5 singer blasted the current rock scene as lacking the “innovation” of hip-hop.
This Caused the internet to run with Headline
SLIPKNOT’s COREY TAYLOR Calls MAROON 5’s ADAM LEVINE A ‘Schmuck’
without any context to why or what format he used to do so.
The 39-year-old Levine has been a judge on “The Voice” since the Emmy award-winning NBCmusic competition show’s very first season.
Just because you claim to have ‘Moves Like Jagger’ doesn’t mean you come anywhere CLOSE to ROCKING like Jagger. Tell that schmuck to go back to The fucking ‘Voice’ ?? https://t.co/tFm0VHvV82

This all came down over interview Levine did with Variety,
When Levine was asked which genre of music he and his bandmates fit into: pop, rock or urban. He responded: “Something unique to this band is that we have always looked to hip-hop, R&B, all rhythmic forms of music, from back when we were writing our first album to now.
“Rock music is nowhere, really,” he continued. “I don’t know where it is. If it’s around, no one’s invited me to the party.
“All of the innovation and the incredible things happening in music are in hip-hop. It’s better than everything else. Hip-hop is weird and avant-garde and flawed and real, and that’s why people love it.”
Levine added: “My goal is to make songs that don’t sound dated 10 years later. My main criteria for a song is, can I live with it forever? And if I can’t, I just don’t have the heart to do it. It’s that simple.”
STONE SOUR producer Jay Ruston, who has also worked with ANTHRAX, URIAH HEEP and STEEL PANTHER, also tweeted: “When Adam Levine or anyone else in that genre can consistently sell out stadiums around the world like METALLICA, MUSE, SLIPKNOT, IRON MAIDEN, RAMMSTEIN, AC/DC, GUNS N’ ROSES and THE ROLLING STONES then I’ll care what he has to say about the death of rock.”
