Hater Tuesday

I was reminded yesterday how much I fucking hate this song. I hate Daniel Powter and his faggy voice and his gay ass hats. This kind of sappy bullshit sends me into fits of rage in the first sixteen bars.

I hated this song when Rihanna sang it and now I hate even more. Fucking acoustic renditions. I don’t know what’s worse, this broad’s version of this song or her whole shtick of covering popular songs acoustically on YouTube. Thanks to her there are about a million dumb beezies singing songs to computers hoping and waiting to be discovered. For example….

OK, so this isn’t a cover it’s a real dumb beezy singing a real terrible song. This shit drives me fucking insane. It’s so fucking sickly sweet. Her voice is so fucking average and the lyrics sound like something out of my 5th grade diary. But don’t worry the teen girls love it and there are a shit ton of shitty acoustic and homemade renditions on YouTube you can watch.

If I hear DJ Kahled shout “WE DA BEST” one more fucking time I’m going to murder someone.

So it’s not so much the song that I hate but the video. Don’t get me wrong the song is ass despite a (phoned in) feature from Kells. Hasn’t Rick Ross already made this video like 3 times already? I’m so, so, so over the whole wanna be Scarface/Miami kingpin vibe. Everyone wants to be a goddamn boss. If Rick Ross is hustlin’ so fucking much why the fuck is he speeding without a license? Who carries around $40K watches in the glove box to bribe cops with?

His marketing manager at Universal must be ready to shoot his/herself at this point. I can only imagine the what the discussion with Ross and his people about video concepts must be like:

Manager: So it’s time for another video guys. Got any concepts?
Ross: I’m a boss.
Manager: Um, yes. OK so, any ideas we can work with?
Ross: I’m a boss.
Manager: Yes, Mr. Ross, I am aware. We’ve got some talented up and coming directors who had some real interesting concepts for you to check out. We could do something cinematic or animated or….
Ross: Maaaaaan. Fuck all that. I’m a boss. Videos have boats, bitches, fast cars and views of Miami son.
DJ Kahled: Yeah! We Da Best!!
Manager: Ugh, OK, OK.

What songs did you hate in 2007?
