_I am what they call a power user._


finally we have an answer to the thread question. time to close shop.

If white lives truly matter, why is Morgan Wallen still a pariah and Kanye West gets a pass?

comedy khadafi (voodoo chili), Monday, 10 October 2022 13:38 (three years ago)

Can I forgive Kanye West for his anti-Semitic comments? Of course I can, BECAUSE HE'S MENTALLY ILL!

I've met Morgan Wallen. Talk to him, he's a soft guy with a brain who does not scream racism

comedy khadafi (voodoo chili), Monday, 10 October 2022 13:42 (three years ago)

really a doozy of a letter, might finally be the train wreck that i can look away from

comedy khadafi (voodoo chili), Monday, 10 October 2022 13:44 (three years ago)

Isn't Wallen still one of the biggest stars in country?

He was one of the big headliners at the recent iHeartRadio fest, hardly seems blacklisted to me

does Bob actually attend or read anything that isn’t aimed directly at industry types

I've met Morgan Wallen. Talk racism to him, he's a guy with a soft brain who does not scream

but also fuck you (unperson), Monday, 10 October 2022 14:10 (three years ago)

he doesn’t read anything he can’t skim while checking his phone on a chairlift

comedy khadafi (voodoo chili), Monday, 10 October 2022 14:10 (three years ago)

Talk to him, he's a soft guy with a brain who does not scream THOSE PHONES ARE NO LONGER SUPPORTED!

If white lives truly matter, why is Morgan Wallen still a pariah and Kanye West gets a pass?

If anything, it's the exact opposite

Don Henley knew this back in 1976.

Check the Spotify Top 50, there's not a SINGLE Beyonce song! Not one!

ok but if you look at the spotify top albums chart, there she is at #5. and since there isn’t a big single buoying the album, isn’t that an indication that people are listening to the whole album and listening often?

can always count on this fucker to draw the dumbest conclusion from any piece of data presented to him

comedy khadafi (voodoo chili), Saturday, 15 October 2022 03:46 (three years ago)

I just want to say I've grown to really resent -- for all that it was in jest -- the question at the end of the opening post to this thread all those years ago. Fate worse than death, to be even slightly like this clown.

whomst among us is not, in a certain sense, bob lefsetz?

He's always defending Ticketmaster and asserting big artists can tell them to do things differently

curmudgeon, Thursday, 22 December 2022 15:20 (three years ago)

one month passes...

I’d even proffer at this late date if Kim Carnes appeared on the Super Bowl more people would know her big hit song than those of Rihanna.

la vie wokisme (voodoo chili), Thursday, 16 February 2023 17:03 (three years ago)

KIM CARNES?

idk why i'm still surprised at this doofus, but what an odd reference.

"i'm grateful." (Austin), Thursday, 16 February 2023 17:29 (three years ago)

also yeah, i'm playing the race card: of course ol leffy would prefer a nice h`white lady.

I’ll expose you, when I snow you
Offer feed with the crumbs I throw you
I’m ferocious and I sell just what it
Takes to make your cheeks blush
Bitch better have my money

I'm def of the Lefsetz school of "No one knows what's going on in music anymore" but "Umbrella" is a huge, omnipresent fucking song

Whiney G. Weingarten, Thursday, 16 February 2023 17:35 (three years ago)

Like, in the Kim Carnes era there was like one of those songs every week. In the Rihanna era there's maybe two a year if you're lucky. But "Umbrella" is assuredly one of them!

Whiney G. Weingarten, Thursday, 16 February 2023 17:37 (three years ago)

rihanna has enough hits that anyone who has been to a bar or restaurant or grocery store in the past fifteen years will have heard a few of them

la vie wokisme (voodoo chili), Thursday, 16 February 2023 17:39 (three years ago)

> but what an odd reference.

Really odd! But now I'm noticing a mild resemblance between Rhianna and Bette Davis.

bendy, Thursday, 16 February 2023 18:30 (three years ago)

Tommy Tutone is more popular than Rhianna it's science

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 16 February 2023 18:38 (three years ago)

He says he doesn’t listen to pop radio, just his fave Sirius XM stations; he says he doesn’t surf for new music; and apparently must just get his groceries delivered.

curmudgeon, Thursday, 16 February 2023 18:46 (three years ago)

if he wanted to be topical, should've gone with Nena

POLIZISTEN VERSINKEN IM SCHLAMM (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 February 2023 19:20 (three years ago)

xp and of course he assumes that everyone else in the world is just like him

la vie wokisme (voodoo chili), Thursday, 16 February 2023 19:47 (three years ago)

jt’s not like 1981’s 70-year-olds would have been familiar with “Bette Davis Eyes”

let us now celebrate ama ‘piano’ smith & the clowns (breastcrawl), Thursday, 16 February 2023 19:59 (three years ago)

In 1981 they had Helen O’connell in the halftime show, so maybe Lefs has a point

two weeks pass...

I know I can’t say “rape and pillage” anymore

The Lefsetz letter--that's where I'm a Viking!

Talk to a millennial, ask them what is hot. Chances are they'll mention a TikTokker or YouTube influencer you've never heard of.

sir, millennials are pushing 40

the funny thing is a lot of the "boring suburban parents" i know are more plugged into youth culture than a lot of cool culture writers just because they have multiple teens in their house

Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 13 March 2023 15:13 (three years ago)

lefsetz makes more sense once you realize he's writing for people pushing 70

avatár the way of watár (voodoo chili), Monday, 13 March 2023 15:20 (three years ago)

(thinks of people i know pushing 70)

no, this doesn't help i'm still struggling =/

''can be prusuaded to show gayness'' (Austin), Monday, 13 March 2023 15:52 (three years ago)

It's for 70 year olds who keep up with the new bands--you know, like R.E.M.

INDEPENDENTS DAY BY STEVEN SPILBERG (President Keyes), Monday, 13 March 2023 15:56 (three years ago)

people who genuinely think kim carnes is more famous in 2022 than rihanna

avatár the way of watár (voodoo chili), Monday, 13 March 2023 15:59 (three years ago)

or whatever year this is

avatár the way of watár (voodoo chili), Monday, 13 March 2023 16:00 (three years ago)
