Thursday, the day of abomination

Let's talk about HATE, poptimists. It'll be therapeutic.

What horrible, terrible, reprehensible musical things have occurred thus far this year? Did The Saturdays covering 'Just Can't Get Enough' make you cry? Do The Lonely Island make you want to beat your own face in? Do you think Lady Gaga just hasn't received enough press coverage? Is The Dream overrated? Did Royksopp, in your opinion, shove out a massive log of POO? Have you heard that new single by The Enemy?

A post about ORGAFUN coming later, once we've ~expelled the hate.

well, it engages with it, but from a distance; and the way it engages, it makes the arm's length seem more the point than the source material. And the arm's length consists of fear, awkwardness, mockery, distaste, openly revelling in one's own half-assed lack of skill - what all of these things are essentially saying is "we don't think hip-hop culture is worth anything more than being the butt of an ineptly executed joke". UGH.
