So much crap, so little time.
12 Feb 2007
I don’t normally watch the Grammy Awards. Yes, it’s true I’m a huge music fan, and a guitarist, but that’s exactly why I don’t watch the Grammy’s. Music doesn’t mean the same thing today as it did when they stopped making the music I enjoy: Rock & Roll. Take Timberlake for instance. Justin Timberlake is not a musician, he’s fucking noise. He’s not cute. He’s not talented. He has no redeeming qualities to him whatsoever. Does that stop America from eating him up with a spoon? Hell no. He’s a hack who is over-produced, engineered, and is what the music industry wants you to like. Although “technically” the Dixie Chicks produce music, I can’t say that I’m pleased to see a single award go to the liberal, white-trash band from Texas.
If you’re recall, only a few years back, the Dixie Chicks trashed George Bush, the Whitehouse, and everything on the right side of the isle. While I always support the right to free speech, you gotta admit, there are still things you shouldn’t say, at least in a particular venue or context. The Dixie Chicks crossed the line back then, and as a result, I’ll shit on their music until the day I die. I follow plenty of left-affiliated muscians, but only until they cross the line. Take the Dave Matthews Band. He’s as liberal as it gets, but you’re not made aware of his politics unless you ask for them. He doesn’t assume all of his fans are liberals, and I appreciate that.
I guess the reason those three bitches from Dallas really won, wasn’t because they’re an outstanding act, but because the competition was really weak. Aside from RHCP (oh… Red Hot Chili Peppers), there really wasn’t anything I cared for. Consider this: The NFL, MLB, and NHL all have halls of fame. So does Basketball, but they incorporate high school and college, so the pool is too big to be considered here. To be eligible for the hall of fame in the MLB, you have to have been retired for 5 years. Then, if you’re voted in, you’re in, if not, good luck next year. If there happens to be a HOF class where nobody is worthy of entry, we’ll go a year without an induction. The same isn’t true of the “Album of the Year” Grammy Award.
Each year an “Album of the Year” is given out. This means that no matter how piss-poor the talent field is, one will be selected. This doesn’t mean that if the album wins the award, it’s worth sampling; It just means that it wasn’t as bad as all the others.
And what’s worse? The meaningless drivel of an acceptance speech (each time they won). At one point, the short little stubby piglet-looking bitch said: “To Quote the Simpsons: ‘Ha ha!’ (like Neslon Muntz)”. What the fuck was the point of that? Why would you do that? Who are you laughing at? Other musicians? If yes, then you’re an ungrateful, spiteful, nasty, bitch. If no, then you’re a fucking retard. Either way, keep your mouth shut, and let someone with even an iota of intelligence accept the award gracefully. Man, what a pig.
Ok, I’ve ranted on enough about a trio that shouldn’t mean a lizard fart to me, but I feel that because they’ve been placed on a pedastal and crowned as music royalty, I should say something.
