Ugh. Couldn't make it past the 1:00 minute mark. But then, is he famous? I'd never heard of him before. |

If you haven't heard of him yet, you will soon. He's coming up and becoming more famous everyday.

| Amber Rose and Audrina from The Hills are both famous for absolutely no reason. One dated a rapper(Kanye) and one played an even more vapid version of herself on a reality show. They don't sing, act, or even speak very much. They're parents aren't rich and famous and neither one of them has a sex tape out--yet. But they are both cashing in big on simply showing up looking hot at events and nightclubs. Audrina made multimillions last year and the only real "work" she did was Dancing with the Stars. Who says the American Dream is dead? |

I honestly thought she was some boy with down's syndrome when I first saw her. |
I've actually been sort of obsessed with this person, never knowing if he's a she or what. This is the person who does those short comedy films they play on the subway, right? The one where people talk into microphones shaped like bananas? |

I don't understand the appeal of this (Lil B):

Yesterday I saw a comment on Gucci Mane's Lemonade video that made me want to copy and paste it to every other video with stupidity I come across.

| LISTEN UP: Too all people watching this video. Go and rent Idiocracy by Mike Judge because you losers are leading society in that direction. The anti-intellectual movement fostered by music like this is putting our country in the gutter. We split the atom in the 40s, and went to the moon in the 60s. Progress has slowed since, because people idolize dumbasses like this instead of reading a book. So turn your brain back on and hit the damn library. |

... but it's swag. Lil B has moments of deconstructed hip hop brilliance and some pretty average moments, but what can you expect from someone who has put out how many songs now? The best description I've seen of him is from the Guardian who described him as "trolling his own fanbase" (aka 'real' hip hop fans). |
