Yo, Kanye was PIRATED and Lost $10 MILLION

You know what you don't hear about much anymore?

PIRACY. It's so common and accepted, people routinely giggle and laugh about how they downloaded the latest album, found an illegal stream, or "shared" in a forum.

But when KUNTYE began bellowing about how he's $50 million in debt (despite doing renovations on his $20 million gigantic estate) the Media decided to start spinning. As in, ooooh, poor KUNTYE, he needs money and look at what those awful PIRATES are doing!

Pretty funny. Not only that KUNTYE lost money, but that the media goes to Torrent Geek, which for years not only "tracked" but PROMOTED piracy. As in, "Don't let them ruin our fun" and "Here are the Top 10 sites where you can steal shit" and "We're talking to Borscht-Breath about why his torrent site went down yesterday" and "Patronize our advertisers, who tell you how to hide your IP address and STEAL!"

Let's continue, as the maggot-media legally steals from the Torrent Geek by crediting him and linking to him. Remember, it's "fair use" if you copy somebody's copy and give a credit!

Aw, Niggas don't know how to operate a computer? Can't figure out how to download off a torrent?

Bad, bad Niggas aren't goin' to da corner and gettin' bootleg CDs for $5 (three for $10)?

And where's the RIAA to insist, "Oh, he did NOT lose $10 million because all the people who downloaded were people who wouldn't have bought."

It's amazing anyone is buying anything.

BARREN COCK, of course, happily writes off everything he buys on AMAZUN as a tax deduction. "I'm reviewing this stuff on GOOTUBE. Hundreds of people breathlessly await to see a fatty open a package and show what the new box set looks like..."

IF I'M BEING HONEST, it's gotten to the point where only true fans pay up and "support" the very few artists they like. Those artists, in turn, had better be polite and friendly, "like" comments about them on TWATTER and FARCEBOOK, and tour constantly to drum up business. A certain Irish woman does all of that, and self-presses her CDs so she can get a bigger share of the profit.

It would help, though, if she didn't resort to entire albums of cover versions, but the need for "fresh merch" to sell at gigs means you gotta do it. And TRUE fans will definitely want to hear YOUR version of...a Chuck Berry song? Eeeeek.

Still not enough new songs for an album? A year later, recycle your old songs. If your original album was you and guitar, release it "with full band!" If it was done with a full band, say: "Hey everying, NOW you can hear them acoustic with just a guitar!"

Yes, the latest album is old stuff "stripped down." She coyly used the term 'NAKED' but the album cover wasn't her naked, or even coyly covering tits with her hands. It was an AWFUL piece of artwork.

HOW UGLY. It really shakes your faith when someone you admire displays such a grotesque lack of taste. And when you OWN the label, you can't blame the art department for doing something terrible behind your back.

Meanwhile we have another Irish singer-songwriter who simply figures that strumming on GOOTUBE is enough, one-take songs in a pipingly bad voice is enough, and that going out and performing in a bar is too much trouble.

"REALITY, WHAT A CONCEPT."

Yes, we all hope that this dizzy bint is looking in a mirror and saying, "Shauna-na..." and consigning herself to being Spawna, doing nothing in life except spawning brats. Of varying colors.

It was never easy and it's gotten much, much worse in the 21st Century. Years ago, you built up credits, and if you had a lucky break or knew the right person, you might luck into a really great gig or job. If not, you could still hobble along IF you were professional. IF you had a great idea you DID get a book contract and IF you had talent at least you might get a record deal or a regular night at your local pub (without having to pay to play).

Now? Even the professionals can't get work, and the flood of scabs and amateurs are like a plague of locusts. How ironic that Shauna would complain that she can't get noticed. SHE is part of the problem, that army of self-entitled clueless insects who make it impossible for people to wade through the dross and find something new and good.

Take our friend Eleanor. If you want to hear HER (bootleg, unauthorized) version of "Sophie" on GOOTUBE (the stolen music and a photo of the album cover), you might have to wade through the clutter of a variety of hideous Shaunas doing THEIR versions, as well as dozens of amateurs named Eleanor or Sophie clogging up the search.

Why, even if you bare your rubbery nipples, and bend over backward so your boob-puppies don't droop, who says anyone will pay much for your CD?

Pitiful, isn't it? Here's a new CD, just released, and not printed in any great quantity, and a promo copy fetches next to nothing. Yes, nobody in their right mind would think there's anything great on it, but still, she's somewhat known, and there are people who LOVE to hate her, who might buy it just to make fun of it. Nah.

Like winning the lottery, there's a One in 50 MILLION chance of being Taylor or Sia or Adele, or the rap monkey du jour. Just how some inane Scumford and Buns makes it, truly defies all logic. And if you DO make it, like Keane did, or Dido, what are the odds you make more than one album worth buying?

When was the last time ANYONE put out an album that was truly revolutionary, or exciting, or even tuneful? Part of the problem is that the genres are played out. Rock, rap, country, jazz...it's been done. The notes have all been used. It's rare when anyone writes an amusing song or one that improves on what Dylan or Davies or the rest had to say about life, death and the state of the world.

Don't expect another "Day in the Life" to blow your mind.

In this phony world, all you get is "A DAY IN MY LIFE" from a guy with four eBay ID's pretending to be a "girlyy."

And you can get ALL the poses you want on the Internet for FREEEEEEEEEE. So this guy is whining as much as Shauna is, how he can't make a living on being a talentless douche.
