yeah whiney I'm sorry, you know I dig & respect you for real, but you really do sound like you're up on some the-kids-aren't-funny-but-when-we-were-kids-we-knew-what-was-funny shit here. like "the tim-and-ericization of the music industry"? newsflash man, the music industry has always been like that

i fucking love "llama school"

LOVE

p.s. prolly xpost, dont feel like reading thru this thread, but the original version is quite terrible, while the wallpaper remix is something i totally wanted to dismiss as shit but i'm simply unable to resist, while remaining completely aware that it contains numerous similarities to Electric Six's "Danger! High Voltage" including an off-key tenor sax solo

Pizza Hut has recently expanded its menu beyond pizza to include pasta, giving it some reason to alter its branding. Media and advertising trade publication MediaWeek characterized the name change as an attempt to transform its stores into hip hangouts.

just goin to chase some tail at the hut, you know

i think the wallpaper remix is a nice production job but i cant get with the song as a whole. okay, i get it, it's supposed to be a joke and rapping is funnie, right, but at least be a competent rapper to make it interesting. i cant give their (imo) dearth of technical ability a free pass just cuz it's supposed to be a joke.

this, ladies and gentlemen, has been a serious post on DAS RACIST's "combination pizza hut and taco bell"

good save cuz i was itching to sb

hmm i heard this when it first came out. don't really feel anything for it. i also haven't been in either a pizza hut or a taco bell for....well, since i was 14. i am not a fast-food chain type of guy.

that said, all my friends were really into "We Fuck You" by Electrik Red last night.

'we fuck you' is so great - really funny but it could never be mistaken for an indie fuxxor novelty hit.

Is there a dance that goes with this novelty hit? I heard it for the first time and thought of chicken noodle soup with a soda on the side immediately.

so basically everyone involved with this was high, right

this song doesn't sit right w/me. we have combination taco bell/ KFC's here

the one nearest me is a combination KFC/Pizza Hut

oakland?

yep.

Is this song supposed to be funny? Because it isn't.

Das Racist is a GREAT band name, though.

okay, just a note: SAGAT released an absolutely fantastic record on Cajual back in the day. Derrick Carter and Ron Trent used to spin it all the time in older sets.

I admit this is cute

Does this one belong to the same category?

Tissit!

What about this one?

combination dunkin donuts / baskin robins

man, remember when J0hn used to have his own opinions instead of just accusing other people of making strawmen even when they're not?

you've only been here since 2005, you must have been looking in the archives

not sure who's being dissed here, whiney for being a goon or j0hn for not having said anything original in 5 years?

I don't know anyone IRL who dislikes this song.

i like this song, i believe these guys have actually been in a combination pizza hut and taco bell so they're for real

fuck yall

I CAN PLAY COOL BUT I CANT PAY FOOD

song for late 09

Revive!

#4 in the "Poptimists" poll! Why do people think this song is so goddamn amazing????

Am I the only one on the planet (besides Whiney maybe?) who prefers the original to the Wallpaper which is still perfectly nifty in its own right?

original is so much better, remix is posturing imo

whew! (wipes brow)

yeah i prefer the original, remix doesn't really do it for me.

so i found out yesterday that one of the dudes in this band wrote a long blog post calling me & deej racists

lol

these dudes going all over the web writing tl;dr essays is weird; ok great you're smart, maybe you can use that when you make music sometime?

so i found out yesterday that one of the dudes in this band wrote a long blog post calling me & deej racists

where?

they seem like insufferable people tbh

im pretty sure it wasnt dude from das racist, just another dude from his blog

...and so the backlash begins

also, i did that display name like three days ago, some dude

ugh ok for like 2 posts, sorry i blinked and missed it

backlash against what? "combination" is far from consensus

tell that to pazz and jop voters

ok i guess i'm gonna wait for the next time someone voices their distaste of "empire state of mind" to say "and so the backlash begins"

Even if it wasn't one of these dudes, I'm still curious to read that rant about you guys being racist. Where can I find it?
