Under Investigation:
The Moral Murderer (a.k.a The Taint)

By Sufi Mohamed

An aspiring collector of music, videos, and literature, the Taint is currently extending his network beyond the boundaries of Soulseek. Considering the recent deliberations about piracy and the boycott currently affecting record labels, the Taint doesn't give a shit. Carefully choosing his worthy selection, the Taint currently extends his connection with users in a voluminous level: politics, music, video, and martial arts. Prospective in his attempt to bring a network of more users (who do not have access to his Soulseek shares) for frequent browsing and downloading, the Taint's popularity continues to remain an engraved etch within the World Wide Web. To further analyze what the Taint can offer you, one must fruitfully enjoy a look into his categories!

Politics

The Taint is primarily interested in conspiracy theories. Although, for him, conspiracy theories include: 1) media conglomerization (media control through means of business interests); 2) Religious expansion; 3) Religion and deception; 4) Expansion due to Economic interests (i.e. Globalization); 5) Cultist behaviour. In his Soulseek index, the Taint has organized an array of carefully researched publications in an attempt to negotiate relevant sources from the irrelevant. In his research, his thoughts regarding imperialization and American global hegemony spark an intriguing arrangement of sources.

Music


The Taint's prominence lies in his collection of music. Compulsive in his organization of music and weighing the differences in his collage of music genre interests, it would seem that the Taint is primarily interested in Underground Hip-Hop and Rap. Due to his political nature, the Taint finds an interest in lyrical sense, relevance, and unity. Consistently promoting voices otherwise unheard by the mainstream popular culture, he runs several attempts to unify mainstream hip-hop and rap listeners to the pleasures of the underground. The artists which convey, for him, the best lyrical contents include: Immortal Technique, Papoose, Rakim, Jedi Mind Tricks, Nas, Akir, Cormega, Big Pun, and Kool G Rap.

Videos

Conscious in his choice of videos, the Taint seeks entertainment to the closest mind-altering enlightening experience. In his Soulseek index, one sees that the Taint is interested in: comedy, erotica, music videos, documentaries, and movies. Bringing an array of diverse interests into his video collection, he disseminates interests of comedy, satire, and innovations in humour (Family Guy, Southpark, etc..). Overseeing the relevancy of videos and whether or not it would be something that his users would download is a matter of subjective opinion; however, from what I have experienced, the Taint seems consistent in broadcasting the interests of the wider public.

Martial Arts

Having been influenced by the integrity of Martial Arts, the Taint is a disciplined student, since having been martial led since 3 years old, the Taint has developed an intriguing resume of fighting styles and techniques. Also, in his video collection, it's clear that martial arts and their respective techniques would be a prominent component in his arsenal of shares.
