Mahbod Moghadam Dam Non-Genius of "RAP GENIUS" gets FIRED

Just when you think an infuriating story of privilege and gun-nut murder and self-centered Hollywood scummery and entitlement couldn't get any more loathesome...here comes MAHBOD MOGHADAM.

Anything goes, almost.

Thankfully, Tom Lehman, the fairly twisted and illiterate CEO of some shitty "music" website called RapGenius (that takes rap music seriously) fired his partner.

Take a look at that piece of camel dropping. Mahbod thinks he's cool? He's a fucking Arab, not a black rapper. He was a fame parasite at RapGenius...somebody living off the "cool" of black artists, and pretending to be a player himself (with dark shades and that "terrorist" look).

Of course Mahbod hates women, just like creepy Elliot Rodger, because Mahbod is clearly obsessed with black cock, and "rap" attitude, and hoping and praying that some of the sperm flying off a pimp's dick lands in his mouth.

This is what 20-somethings and 30-esque losers are like. They see black culture so they want to steal it for themselves. It wouldn't surprise me of Mahbod was a virgin too, just like Elliot Rodger.

This guy actually quoted parts of the Rodger "manifesto" and declared it "artful and beautifully written," and that the shooter's sister had to be a "smokin' hot" babe?

That really outdoes the creeps who love Charlie Manson and John Wayne Gacy. Thankfully there are still enough normal people in the world (a small but vocal minority) that such praise for a deranged loser who offed innocent people...ended with "make him RESIGN."

Tell you what, Mahbod, you do your rap-strut down to the home of Mr. Martinez, who lost his son to psycho-brat Elliot Rodger's cowardly attack, and tell him what a great guy Elliot was. You tell him all about it, because YOU IS KEWL, mah man, Mahbod.

Elliot Rodger's crappy parents knew this kid was trouble before the brat even reached puberty, and watched, mostly without doing anything, as he raged and ranted, and was given a BMW to cruise around in. Rodger's parents were prepared, in some way, for their horrible monster to do violence to others and to himself. Mr. Martinez, who eloquently cried for gun control while grieving his innocent son, had no idea a promising life would be snuffed. This kid Martinez is DEAD, as are the other five, and there's nothing "artful" or "beautiful" about this tragedy.

"Well, what do you expect from some jackass with sand for brains, whose relatives probably beheaded anything that moved, and who is in love with, and finds art and poetry in, (c)rap music?" Is that what you want to hear, Mahbod? Now you can go off to the unemployment line for a while and when you get back, take off the shades and take a good long look in the mirror.

Christ, what else is going on? Let's not even LOOK at Twitter, where giddy idiot girls are probably drooling and wetting their panties over how "cute" those pictures of labia-lipped Elliot Rodger are, and how "kewl" he posed in his BMW.

Whenever there's a sick crime, there's always some asshole (or complete set of human hemorrhoids) to stick up for the maniac killer, find him attractive, and excuse what he did.

PS, if you read Lehman below, his run-on sentences and repeating of words mark him as a punk who needs English 101.

How about the line that Mahbod "annotated the piece with annotations..." Duh.

That Lehman so deeply sniffs at the anus of "rap lyrics" proves what a fool he is. It seems that anyone, or any two dopes, can start a forum and either enjoy the "power" and "fame" of lording over a few hundred basement-dwelling jackasses, or actually make some pocket change off their dumbass hobby.

Me, I'd prefer the day when you got your news from legitimate magazines and newspapers run by trained veteran writers, not assholes like Lehman and the rest of the "boy genius" bunch who can start a website instantly and pretend they are professionals.

Punk bastard Elliot Rodger's "manifesto" had no place on his site in the first place. But here's what the idiot wrote, in some lame-ass attempt to still seem "kewl" while having fired his buddy:

Yesterday the Rap Genius community annotated Elliot Rodger’s manifesto on News Genius. Because this tragedy is still so raw, there was internal debate as to whether this document belonged on the site at all. Ultimately we decided that it was worthy of close reading... ....Mahbod Moghadam, one of my co-founders, annotated the piece with annotations that not only didn’t attempt to enhance anyone’s understanding of the text, but went beyond that into gleeful insensitivity and misogyny. All of which is contrary to everything we’re trying to accomplish at Rap Genius.

Were Mahbod’s annotations posted by a new Rap Genius user, it would be up to our community leaders, who set the tone of the site and our approach to annotation, to delete them and explain to the new user why they were unacceptable.

Were Mahbod’s annotations posted by a Rap Genius moderator, that person would cease to be an effective community leader and would have to step down.

And Mahbod, our original community leader, is no exception. In light of this, Mahbod has resigned – both in his capacity as an employee of the company, and as a member of our board of directors, effective immediately.

Mahbod is my friend. He's a brilliant, creative, complicated person with a ton of love in his heart. Without Mahbod Rap Genius would not exist, and I am grateful for all he has done to help Rap Genius succeed. But I cannot let him compromise the Rap Genius mission – a mission that remains almost as delicate and inchoate as it was when we three founders decided to devote our lives to it almost 5 years ago.

Yes, that's the state of "journalism" today...when there's even an idiot website run by some twit with a high schooler's sense of morality. He vaguely gets that his "friend" was dead wrong, but he has to kiss Mahbod's ass anyway, and twist his knickers and his mouse-sized balls around some babble about "community leaders" and forum rules, and gosh, sniffing and licking at a 141 page loony-screed from a loser is SUCH entertainment for fans of a site like RapGenius. Yeah, this Lehman lemon-head is just like the assholes who run music forums and decide HOW MUCH copyright abuse they allow, and if new releases are exempt, and if an album's been out "more than 2 years" it's "fair game," etc. etc.

I get the idea that at RapGenius you can post antisemitism, misogyny, murderous thoughts, declare that all cops should be killed because it would be revenge for Tupac...whatever the shit might be.

Did you believe that opening line? That it was felt that annotating Rodger's idiot rant was "worthy of close reading?" Sure, that's like a debate from two pin-headed music forum leaders over whether an entire Beach Boys box set would be allowed as long as it didn't include PDFs of the booklet. It's like thinking, "well, it's free speech" if one forum member says he wants to kill another, or if one forum member starts spouting racism, or posting pornography. Like, "well, it wasn't bad pornography...the chick was smokin' hot..."

Does it get worse? All the time.
