Is that SLO THRUST or SLOTH RUST?

Don't rob them of their ambiguous name. That's all they've got going for them.

There was a sloth in the video so I'm going with the latter.

Thanks for posting that BRC video, I had heard country-rap was taking over rural bars here in the south but hadn't the privilege of hearing it first-hand. Pretty much as bad as you'd expect it to be.

resolved: "the chainsmokers" and "#selfie" are outstanding names for a band and song, respectively, in 2014.

man annoying-"young"-deadpan-people-monologuing-over-dance-music is an established art form, ppl think they can just halfass it

Selfie is actually somewhat close to being a decent track... unfortunately the entire selfie hook/conceit has nothing to do with the content of the rest of the song.
― skip, Saturday, 15 February 2014 22:48 (twelve years ago)
no, but you could look at the rest of the song and the title as a commentary on self-absorbed youth culture in the social media age.

at first I was feeling sorry for the poor person who cut out all those paper shapes because they had to listen to this fucking jive-ass feelgood patting-self-on-back "ally anthem" turd of a song over and over but then . . . they probably heard the song once when the song was pitched to them for the animation job and they had their chance to barf and turn it down, so if they chose to help disseminate this then they are their own punishment and I won't shed any more tears

Last week, the fastest-rising addition to Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs chart was neither a rap song, nor a hot song. It had been released just a week prior, and there was rapping. But Buck 22’s “Achy Breaky 2” — a literal sequel to Billy Ray Cyrus’s hit, “Achy Breaky Heart,” featuring Miley’s 52-year-old dad on the hook — bears none of the hallmarks of the genre. It is, however, remarkable in that it is remarkably bad: Built upon that massively successful 1992 country-pop hit, it is outfitted with peun-peun EDM lasers and bass drops, hollow drum programming, cynical lyrics, and the sub-Timbaland grumble-raps of Buck 22. Oh, and an incessant whistling, straight from the lips of a succubus. In less than a week, the song shot to no. 11 on the Hot Rap Songs chart. Its Larry King–and-alien-Playmate-starring video has logged 7.3 million YouTube views in less than two weeks. “Achy Breaky 2” is emblematic of a genre in disrepair. It is an abomination, or, at least, a practical joke inflicted upon an unwitting public. And they love it.
lol

That American Authors song is what you get when people start writing for syncs. It's not just music for adverts, it's music inspired by adverts.
