HIPSTER RUNOFF

Can't believe it has been a year since Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift and created some sweet internet memes + inspired Carles to write some over-thought puff piece abt the memefication process of humans + events [link]. Honestly can't see my life changing much for the next 20 years. Always gonna sit on a computer, will watch TV, will react to what I am seeing on TV, entertaining my audience of followers who 'value my opinion.'

Worried that time is gonna pass me by, and I won't 'grow up' and I'll just be a worthless 20something forever.

Don't want to think abt that. Just gonna watch the MTV VMAs. H8 society. Just want to consume 'pop culture' and form my unique opinion on it. Want people to know that I 'get' pop culture, and even though I consume it on a daily basis, my perspective on it transcends all.

Feel like Lady Gaga is really 'in her element' at the VMAs, since MTV will basically do whatever she wants to 'create a meme.'

Wore tons of zany meme outfits

She brought a few recently-discharged members of the American Armed Forces to 'make herself seem like a good person.'

Wonder if Katy Perry should have brought some World War 2/Vietnam veterans and/or Holocaust survivors. Think old jewish people might be a haute fashion accessory in 2k12.

Here is another bro who looks like he just won a few medals from serving in Iraq/Afghanistan

I heard that she 'scissored' with Ellen Degeneres just to get blog coverage / appeal to the gay + lesbian markets

Here is Lady Gaga 'sharing a smart snack' with rapper Drake

Drinking out of a zany starbucks cup

Wonder which of these artists is 'more innovative'? Wonder which 1 rode the slutwave harder.

Is there a time where u need to 'retire' getting whored up and wearing stupid, slutty costumes? I can't imagine being 60 years old and having to worry about 'shaving the grey hairs off my pussie region.'

I saw this picture of Kanye West and his 'number 1 ho' Amber Rose at Paris Fashion Week. It seems like they have really 'turned over a new leaf', and are possibly growing stronger as a couple. In the past, she used to wear skank gear to show off her ridonk curves, but now her man has her in check, making sure that she stays covered up, like a beautiful/pure & unique Muslim woman.

Kanye West has sorta been laying low. I was worried about him, like he was depressed, and writing sad, deep songs with an autotuner. He used to be one of the top 5 human memes on the planet, but now he has retreated from the internet sensationsphere.

The 2k0s seemed like an amazing, yet kind bummed out/tragic decade for Kanye West. He got famous, and ppl treated him like the black male Lady Gaga. Went through some hard times... George Bush doesn't care bout mulatto ppl... Mom death [via Heidi Montag plastic surg]... Shafting Taylor Swift... doing other controversial stuff. Wonder if he is going to 'pull it 2gether' this decade, and just try to write songs that change/heal/inspire the world [via Michael Jackson]. Wonder if Justin Timberlake will make us forget about Michael Jackson this decade.

Do u think he still chills with these bros, or are they just enablers?

I wonder if all men + African Americans + rap hiphop superstar moguls will begin to treat women with more love and respect. Are yall tired of women being 'pieces of meat', or do u think they like it like that?

Do yall think black people are going to 'ball over all' at the Academy Awards this year?
Heard that 'Precious' is a beautiful movie that inspires tons of white guilt.

Worried that they'll lose out 2 blue ppl [via the avatar]. Feel like 'Precious' might be the black version of 'Milk.' Like giving the African American community something to 'be proud of' since it represents a realistic tale of hope in their community.

Just got hella bummed out. Relieved about my way of life on the internet + how easy my life has been.

Just sorta riffing on this post, doing some 'pop culture musings', talking about race. Talking about the Oscars. Really just wanted to ask one important question.

What's the difference between Wyclef Jean and Will.I.Am?

If u were stuck on an Island, and u could only be Wyclef Jean or Will.I.Am, and take 1 musical instrument, and bring one broad to sing over ur music, who would it be?
The person who answers this question correctly will receive a free genre shirt.

Sometimes it is weird when a 'successful band' has 'a cool new song' that I think sounds stupid/forced, but it is sort of like 'a club banger'/marketed as some sort of energetic fun song.

I think that this 'music video' might actually be some sort of Hewlett Packard computer commercial. I feel like consumers need to stop honoring the hiphop 'onomatopoeia' gimmick. Tired of 'hooks'/'choruses' being some sort of onomatopoeia gimmick. I feel like it is 'lazy' and 'stupid.'

The Black Eyed Peas seem pretty weird 2 me. I don't think that they would be 'quite as marketbable' if they were all black. I think the addition of a white female to their band was 'critical.' Not sure if White America really wants a band with 2 scary black dudes + 1 albino guy. Feel like they need a 'wigger' type of character in their band who is representative of 'who they might want to be.'

I think the 'Black Eyed Peas' might be some sort of metaphor.

I wonder if the Black Eyed Peas would have 'happened' if the Fugees stayed 2gether. Wonder if Will.I.Am is the modern/'sold out' version of Wyclef Jean. I feel like Will.I.Am is 'trying too hard' to be Marvin Gaye, and write/represent some sort of

Not even sure if we will have 'bands' in 2k10. Every1 might be a hologram.

Feel sad when modern stars try to 'recreate' the aesthetic+honesty of Marvin Gaye's "Whats Goin On" and it ends up being some 'crappy duet' somehow involving Sheryl Crow/Will.I.Am/Eric Clapton/John Cougar Mellbrocamp/a rap verse that 'doesn't fit.'

'where is the love, yall?' - Black Eyed Peas

Sort of just want to be 'a stupid mainstreamer' who gets pumped up when I heard a song like Gnarls Barkley's "Crazy" or the song "Let's Get it Started."

Lets Get It Started - The Black Eyed Peas

I want to be a white person
who 'gets jacked up'
whenever a black person in 'cool clothes'
comes out, waves their arms
rhymes into a mic
and tells the crowd to 'get on their feet.'

I will go home
buy this popular song on iTunes
listen to it when I 'start my workout'
to 'get fucking pumped up'
then choose a slow song 4 my 'cool down'

What kind of music do yall listen 2 now that bloghaus/electro is dead
