Donald Glover is an alt comedian who is attempting 2 'make it' as a rapper/hip hop artist by rapping over samples of pre-existing indie mp3s. Because most indie celebs are insecure abt their societal status bc most of them don't make THAT much money, receiving validation from some1 like Donald Glover makes them feel famous-er. The ALT REPORT has been tough on Donald Glover, questioning his intentions and his artistic merit. Carles panned him at both SXSW and Bonnaroo. In addition, HRO chided that perhaps Donald Glover's krappie tunes killed ppl at Bonnaroo.
Donald Glover seems 2 have fired back at this malicious indie blog by tweeting 'say it 2 my face, internet.' This is certainly a shot at Carles, the anonymous cowardly blogger who just talks mad shit abt artists all day long on his bloggyspot without contributing anything positive 2 the world. This Carles human is so sad that he almost represents a parody of a figure who is so obsessed with indie relevancy that he has gone completely insane and has his head up an invisible indie ass.
Carles's most notorious feud is with Best Coast.
Has Carles gone 2 far?
Is Donald Glover 'effing terrible'?
Will he ever be invited 2 join Odd Future?
Is Carles a cyberbully?
Is Carles jeally of Donald Glover's career as a comic?
Is Aziz Ansari always going 2 be the #1 indie comic in the world?

Carles is the popular blogger from the popular internet website HIPSTER RUNOFF.
HIPSTER RUNOFF is a blog worth blogging abt, created by Carles that is trying 2 stay relevant. It blogs abt buzzbands, alt_stuff, and memes.

Former Vivian Girls drummer Ali Koehler has always been praised by HIPSTER RUNOFF blog for her career decision to tranfer to the Best Coast buzzband. Even thought Vivian Girls has seen tons of buzz on their most recent album cycle, she can probably make more personal profit margins touring in Best Coast, even if she doesn't have equity in the band. However, she took offense to a recent HIPSTER RUNOFF post that claimed Bethany Cosentino was canoodling with horrorcore rapper Tyler the Creator [link].
It turns out that the African American man in the picture is NOT Tyler the Creator. It is actually a different African American rapper. His name is 'The Wizard Khalifa.'
In the end, maybe Ali Koehler was right... but perhaps she has some bad blood with HIPSTER RUNOFF now that the Vivian Girls and Cults have 'stolen the buzz from Best Coast's 2k10 run...'
At the end of the day, this is just another edition of the long war between Best Coast and HIPSTER RUNOFF... but who will win in the end? Maybe every1 is a loser in this mudslinging battle.... 'Sigh...'
Is HIPSTER RUNOFF the #1 journalistic integrituitous website on the internet?
Does HRO need a 'fact checking team'?
Is fact checking 4 lamestreamer news sources?
Is HIPSTER RUNOFF The #1 alt meme farm on the internet?
Does journalism require tons of 'risk taking' and 'going with the flow' of the meme cycle?
IS it hard 2 be a perfect content farm?
Is the internet 'reality' or 'surreality'?
Is Carles 'racist' via thinking that all black ppl are ___________ (famous black persons)?
R u STANDING by the original HIPSTER RUNOFF report? Who is this African American man? Sorta feel like it might be Travie McCoy now...

HIPSTER RUNOFF has been in internet altercations and dramas with multiple indie buzzbands. While 'coverage' on HIPSTER RUNOFF can elevate your bands brand to the indie mainstream + expose your brand to tons of frontline tastemakers, the abusive cyberbullywave writing tone can take a psychological toll on the humans behind these buzzbands. There was the Best Coast incident where Bethany told Carles to eat a dick [link] and accused him of stealing her weed [link]. In addition, Nick Diamonds also threatened 2 kill Carles [link]. Now it seems like the Vivian Girls are finally 'lashing out' at Carles, the blogger behind HIPSTER RUNOFF for his unfair and biased coverage of their buzzband's career.
In an interview with some website, Cassie Ramone, the 2nd most famous member of the Vivian Girls behind Kickball Katy, she 'lets her hair down' and sounds out on HIPSTER RUNOFF.
You seem to be getting an increasing amount of abuse from Carles and the team at Hipster Runoff. Do you pay much attention?
It's really annoying more than anything else, but I guess that is his goal. That kind of stuff is exactly what I want to avoid as a musician - being a "meme," etc. I do read Hipster Runoff sometimes. I think Carles is very smart and sometimes his observations are right on, but I don't actually believe that he means any of the things he writes about. I view the blog more as conceptual art than anything else. However, it still doesn't feel good to be on the receiving end of it.
Is HIPSTER RUNOFF a cyberbully?
Should Carles 'leave the Vivian Girls alone'?
Are the most successful bands = 'memes'?
Does Carles mean everything that he writes?
Is HIPSTER RUNOFF a conceptual art piece, or a legitimate music news source?
Ramone went on to say that Ali Koehler, their former drummer leaving is 'not a big deal' and that the band is stronger than ever. If you read into this, she is basically saying that Ali is a 'marginally talented drummer' and that the band is probably better off. BuzzGirlBands are s00oo0o catty, yall!
You’ve managed to lose two drummers along the way too. How’ve the changes affected your outlook?
I don't think I can stress this enough - it's really not that big of a deal! Bands change members all the time. Almost every band I can think of has gone through as many line-up changes as us, which isn't really that many. I think it's way more noteworthy if a band can keep a consistent line-up for their entire career.
Do u think we can finally say that the Vivian Girls are 'better off' without Ali Koehler?
Will this begin a series of interviews where the Vivian Girls are asked about their feelings on HIPSTER RUNOFF?
Is HRO 'bad 4 indie'?
Do u think the Vivian Girls have done a good job to overcome their low Pitchfork score? [link]
Do all buzzbands read blog/ HRO / Pitchfork?
Does Carles spend all day belittling the artistic efforts of others, contributing nothing positive to the progress of 'the modern scene'?
R u on #TeamVivianGirls or #TeamHipsterRunoff?
Do u have a crush on Cassie now?
Are the Vivian Girls a better long term band or meme than Best Coast?
*************
Oh Cassie....
Maybe I was wrong abt Kickball Katy needing 2 go solo...
Maybe u should be the 1 2go solbro...
Maybe I was distracted by Kickball Katy's jugs... [link]
but after reading ur words & thoughts
U 'get' HRO... U 'get' me....
and that makes u beautiful... on the inside & outside
Who is yalls fave member of Vivian Girls?
Cassie Ramone is the lead singer of the Vivian Girls.
The Vivian Girls are a fuzzy buzzy all-girl band who is sad bc their drummer left them for Best Coast
I just saw this tweet go 'indie viral' by one of the dudes in the Fleet Foxes. I am not sure if it is the lead singer bro just 'trying to be controversial' to get some album buzz or if he really does h8 other bands. What do yall think abt bands that talk shit abt other bands? I feel like it is natural. The indiesphere is a competition, not an orgy of collaboration. We can't all be Grammy winners.
I really h8 modern athletes because they are all rich and they don't really compete against one another because they are sorta in this 'big fraternity.' Maybe indie is like that now... Every1 is so happy to 'just be relevant' that they are discouraged from speaking their minds... I don't want to live in a world where we are censored just 4 the sake of staying tactful... I want 2 live in a world where all humans, buzzbands, and blogs are free to 'talk mad shit' on the reg.
Shame on him. He needs 2 realize that the blogosphere = a symbiotic relationship between blogs and buzzbands. We need eachother 2 live, 2 survive, 2 thrive. If a buzzband can't release relevant albums, maybe they can just 'shit on other ppl' and then we can all talk abt it.
Here is the entire 'screenshot', where he also says that the popular weblog HIPSTER RUNOFF is the #1 source for indie news memes + commentary on the internet.
Is HIPSTER RUNOFF the #1 indie blog on the internet?
Do too many blogs post shit that no1 cares abt/sounds terrible just 2 get hits?
Do blogs 'try too hard' to 'be controversial' whether it is abt an opinion they have, or an opinion that some other random indie band tweeted abt?
Has the indie criticism-sphere 'degenerated' beyond resuscitation?
Do u think any twitter indie celebs are 'funny' or 'insightful'?
Do u think Fleet Foxbro h8s MIA because of her meme muckraking model?
Will Fleet Foxes win a post-Arcade Fire Grammy?
Will they write bleepy bloop songs that appeal to new chillwave demographics and 'get out of the conceptual forest', or did they 'learn from Sufjan's mistake'?
Do yall <3 when bands talk shit abt other bands?
Do u prefer bands that don't really release mp3s, and just generate as many blog headlines as possible?
Will Fleet Foxes 'overtake' the indie twittersphere now that Ed Droste retired from twitter and Best Coast/WAVVES are 'overexposed'?
The Fleet Foxes are a Seattle-based folkwave band signed to Sub Pop Records.
One time The xx played Jimmy Fallon, and they had a bunch of ppl standing on stage behind them, wearing "X" t-shirts. It seems like this is 'the norm' on Jimmy Fallon to try to create an authentic 'concert-like- experience where fans are standing on stage.'
Anyways, Best Coast is playing Fallon on January 3, 2011, and it seems like she is 'inviting fans on stage' to stand behind her. Really hope some1 goes and does something meme-worthy. Know that the performance is going to be boring, so we could really use some sort of 'down on his luck' altbro/group of post-ironic friends 2 go on Fallon + wear something dumb + do something dumb while on stage.
Is this 'the biggest opportunity' 2 throw down a bloggable indie meme?
Do u think some1 can throw down a zany alt meme as bloggable as the time that girl 'danced her bloghouse ass off' behind Simian Mobile Disco?
Will Best Coast be 'great on Fallon'?
Will Best Coast's Fallon performance be 'terror'/'troll'-free?
Is Best Coast gonna be 'great on fallon'?
Will Best Coast 'tank' on Fallon?
Is WAVVES' career 'in the shitter'/is he jeal bc he hasn't been on Fallon?
Will this be a 'golden moment' in Best Coast's career where she finally realizes her mainstream potential?
Is 1/3/2k11 going to be 'the first relevant indie meme' of 2k11?
Will some1 go on stage wearing a "#TeamCarles" t-shirt?
Plz share ur ideas/plans if ur going to go on Fallon 2 stand behind Bethany. Please contact carleser [at] gmail.com if ur plan needs funding or creative consulting.

Snacks the Cat Girl and Snacks the Cat Girl 2.0 are 2 QTs who dressed up like Snacks the Cat, and just wanted to prove that they <3 Best Coast's brand, her music, and her lovable cat Snacks. However, Best Coast's Bethany Cosentino recently 'lashed out' at these 2 fans, claiming that they are weirdos/freaks/creeps.
The original tweet has been deleted, but it was screenshotted in the popular twitter app TweetDeck.
Bethany says "wtf is Snacks the Cat girl and why are there 2 of them and why r people so freaky?'
How could u h8 this gorgeous face?
C'mon. They're just fans.
They just <3 Snackies.
Go easy on them. They're teenagers. They're still in high school.
They're not creepy. They're not freaks.
They're good people.
Shame on you. Shame on you.
You've become what u h8--a cyber bully. [link]
She's just a fan... No need 2 h8 her...
Is Bethany 'unchill' for h8ing her fans?
Do u think she is mean 2 these 2 cute lil girls?
Is there anything wrong with 'being a fan' or can u go 'too far'?
Do u think this hatred is directed at Carles and the blog HIPSTER RUNOFF because of their pre-existing 'bad blood' from the time Bethany told HRO to 'eat a dick'? [link]
Will we continue to see Snacks the Cat girls?
Will we see a Snacks the Cat Bro?
Will the Best Coast vs HIPSTER RUNOFF feud continue into 2k12, or are both brands 'completely irrelevant'?
Snacks the Cat is the lovable kitty kat who belongs to Best Coast's "Bethany Cosentino." Snacks is often credited as being the creative mastermind behind Best Coast.
Bethany is the lead singer/front woman/indie songstress

Recently, the ALT REPORT has become the #1 source for tracking Michael Cera's buzzband, Mister Heavenly. The site has done its best to attempt to gauge the reception of the band, and their adapatation to having some1 as famous as Michael Cera in their band. Many times, the article blog posts assume that the band is managing feelings of 'jealousy' for the famous Cera, but at the same time, understanding that it is good for their band if they 'milk' all of the attention on Cera.
It seems like this finally 'reached a boiling point' on Thursday, when Nick Diamonds, the singer from Michael Cera's buzzband Mister Heavenly tweeted 'insults' at HIPSTER RUNOFF.
It seems like he insinuates that the author of HIPSTER RUNOFF, widely reported to be "Carles" is an unstable human being who should kill himself.
Next he went on to say that when Carles of HIPSTER RUNOFF dies, no1 will care and no1 will know who he even was.
It seems like these were hurtful death threats made at Carles. Sort of like "If you don't kill yourself, I'm gonna come kill you for you."
Do u think he is pissed abt what Carles said abt his band?
Do u think Carles is 'right' to assume that the band is having difficulty adjusting to their buzz that is based around Mikey Cera?
Is Mike Cera 'tearing the indie blogosphere apart'?
Do u think they should just 'embrace the buzz' that they are receiving due to Michael Serra?
Will this bro 'hunt down' Carles?
Is Carles 'a pussie' for 'being anonymous'?
Is it unchill 2 make death threats on twitter?
Do u think he is just 'creating blog beef' to get more buzz for his band?
Have u heard Mister Heavenly? Are they worth blogging abt for 'musical reasons' or just bc Mikey Cera is in their band?
Are u on #TeamCarles, or are u on #TeamBroInMikeyCera'sBuzzband?
Michael Cera could not be reached for comment.
Nick Diamonds is the creator of the Unicorns and Islands. He is now in the band Mister Heavenly, who is widely known for 'being the band that Michael Cera is in.
Carles is the popular blogger from the popular internet website HIPSTER RUNOFF.
Mister Heavenly is the buzzband that Michael Cera is in. It includes other members of formerly-relevant indie bands.
In an interview with Sirius XMU, Neon Indian's Alan Palomo is pressured by some 'shock jock' to talk more abt chillwave. It seems like every artist who was 'unfairly bundled' in2 the chillwave genre has to answer 5-10 questions per day abt their chillwave existence. Even when they go to McDonalds to buy a cheesyburger, the human behind the counter probs asks them 'what's the deal with chillwave? U want extra cheese on that burger?'
The interviewer bro goes on to 'pan' Carles, calling him a ball buster. He goes on to say that Carles is a 'shitty journalist' and should 'stay the fuck away from scene.' Should Carles 'quit' being a blogjournalist?
STREAM: CHILLWAVE INTERVIEW
R u relieved that Carles is still credited as having invented 'chillwave'?
Do u h8 the
Do u remember the time he baited Best Coast into 'talking mad shit' abt Carles / the HIPSTER RUNOFF brand? [link]
Is 'radio' still 'relevant' [via satellites]?
Does Neon Indian/Washed Out 'h8' Carles 4 ruining their lives'/artistic existence?
Anyways, sometimes u just gotta accept that as a blog, ppl are gonna hate u. Might just tweet at all my h8rs/give out their phone numbers.
Feeling relieved that Neon Indian 'debuted a new song.' We really needed this 1 after the great buzz drought of 2k10. Sufjy really let us down. Pandy lets us down every week. Really feel like I might put all of my buzz hopes + expectations behind Neon Indian 2k11.

Neon Indian I Really Didn't Need You Anyway (Live Sirius XMU Session)
Will this song 'save' 2k10/2k11?
Is this 'the first relevant mp3 of 2k11'?
Is this mp3 'breaking away from the chillwave genre'?
Did chillwave ever exist?
Will it take 2.5 albums for chillwave artists to evolve beyond chillwave/for uninspired local journalists 2 stop asking abt 'chillwave'?
Did Carles invent chillwave?
Does Carles 'bust balls' or 'eat dicks'?
What would Neon Indian/Washed Out/Toro Y Moi's careers be like without a 'loaded' genre term?

STREAM: BEST COAST INTERVIEW WHERE BEST COAST PANS HIPSTER RUNOFF
Best Coast went on the popular indie satellite radio channel Sirius XMU and did an 'interview' with some sort of radio disc jockey bro. Previously, HIPSTER RUNOFF and Best Coast have been in a 'war of words', causing one of the year's most explosive blog vs buzzband conflicts [link].
Here is a 'recap' of the juicy part of the interview:
The bro asks 'What's up with ur blog beef with HIPSTER RUNOFF?"
Then Best Coast is all like 'that guy sux' and outlined why HRO sucked:
-he posts shit abt her + her boyfriend, WAVVES
-much of the site's content + commenters are 'ignorant'
-she 'doesnt give a shit' if HIPSTER RUNOFF 'exposes' buzzbands
-she eventually 'chills out' just wants Carles to 'do his thing' and 'let her do her thing' and leave 1 another alone
-Carles of HIPSTER RUNOFF 'stole her fucking weed' at the Converse launch show
The weed drama 'went down' when Best Coast tweeted that she lost a 'huge bag of weed.'
Carles then tweeted from his @hipsterrunoff account that he recovered a gallon sized-baggy of weed.
Do yall think Carles is a 'dank thief'?
The 'talking head' interviewer then goes on to call the HIPSTER RUNOFF guy a 'bozo', jumping on the Best Coast bandwagon, possibly to 'try to get in her pants' [via WAVVES love triangle].
The Best Coast vs. HIPSTER RUNOFF blog vs buzzband fight seems to have 'no end in sight' as magazines, blogs, and reviewers will surely ask her about it since it is possibly the 'most compelling, rebloggable content' that an interview with her could produce. The question will lead to reflections on new media, indie blog journalism and the TMZification of the blogosphere, and what happens when ur in an alt celebrity relationship. This is a 'perfect storm' of events as Best Coast is forecasted to chart in the top 20 of the Billboard charts, and will be looking to create an even more accessible album in 2k12 that can sell more records.
Do yall think Carles stole Best Coast's weed?
Does Bethany seem 'chill' or do u still h8 her?
Are yall on #TeamCarles or #TeamBestCoast?
Does HIPSTER RUNOFF blog about 'shit that no1 should care about' or does it offer a premium indiesphere experience?
Should Carles 'eat dicks' and 'stop stealing weed'?
Will Best Coast's next album help her reach 'Feist levels', no longer relying on blog coverage?
Have u ever found a bag of weed?
Do drugs tear friendships apart?
Did u re-sell it for money, or did u smoke it?
If u found a bag of weed, is it safe to smoke it, or is it important to find a trustworthy dealer?
What will be the next great buzzband vs blog fight of 2k10/2k11/2k12?
R u sad that this is the beginning of the end of the Best Coast album cycle?

Best Coast is a popular buzzband getting 'tons of buzz' from some of the biggest indie mp3 blogs on the internet. HIPSTER RUNOFF is an in-depth music blog, meme aggregator, and a buzzband news source + analysis mecca.
It seems like Best Coast 'hates' HIPSTER RUNOFF, tweeting that the popular blog can 'go eat a dick.' She had the option to say HRO could 'suck a dick', or even 'take a cock up its ass', but 'eating a dick' was a passionate hate message that she wanted the entire blogosphere and twittersphere to hear.
WAVVES could not be reached for comment.
This is not the first time HIPSTER RUNOFF has been 'hated on' by a buzzband. Recently Neon Indian got 'mad pissed' at HIPSTER RUNOFF for post-erroneous reporting [link].
