Is Rebecca Black? I'm guessing that when you sign up to something like this the paperwork signs most of the profits to ARK, but...
Anyway I guess I'm rooting for her because my name is Rebecca, I found being 13 pretty traumatic, and she looks as blankly nervous and confused by the concept of "partying" as I was back then. (Ah, projection.)

Really it's more amazing than Friday, but it's so disturbing it can't catch on I guess.

I just came to the harrowing realization that Rebecca Black, at age 13, has not ever known a world where Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake aren't famous. Not that it means much, but "Oops! I Did it Again" to her is like "More Than a Feeling" to me. :/
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 17 March 2011 20:51 (thirteen years ago) link
"Oops" is only 2 years older than she is.
― taco al pastorius (Steve Shasta), Thursday, 17 March 2011 20:53 (thirteen years ago) link
xpost -- Well, yeah. That's how generations work.

I got that mixed up, she is only 2 years older than "Oops" (the song, not Luna's ex-bf).

xp - I know, but half of it is "she is so young" and the other half is "Britney and Justin have been around that long, but it doesn't seem like that long."

This article from last year about Ark prodigy Kaya is amusing:

Some percentage of haterade must stem from how Rebecca unintentionally has become a household name without that long struggle for recognition on the merits of talent, despite not being represented by a "high-powered entertainment law firm" - yet.

i can't see how that works, unless the 'haters' are the people that are confused and think "Friday" is a normal hit song with the support of the music industry and are outraged that people sincerely like something so bad (xpost)
― some dude, Thursday, 17 March 2011 20:59 (thirteen years ago) link
granted, there do seem to be a fair number of people with that misconception
this song still sucks and is unintentionally hilarious. i'm not rooting for Rebecca but not rooting against her either. in 3 days I'll have forgotten about this just like I did Pants on the Ground

Someone make a poll so we can decide who the second-best Ark Music artist is?
Or would CJ Fam walk away with it?
I kinda love "My Jeans" too.
― reggaeton for the painfully alone (polyphonic), Thursday, 17 March 2011 21:08 (thirteen years ago) link
I would appear that from the comments on youtube and iTunes for the song and the "worst song ever written" in the press that, yes, much of the (young) audience is believing that this is being dished out to them by the music industry, one which decides what is good and who we shall make stars of. I mean I could be wrong but I have doubts any kind of fraction of those 13 whatever million views care about "outsider music".
― Spectrist, Thursday, 17 March 2011 21:11 (thirteen years ago) link
someone should loop the "fun fun fun fun" refrain and layer the rest of the vocal track over it "O Superman"-style

i think the either/or of totally outraged gullibles and nerds who use the term "outsider music" is a bit of a false dichotomy that ignores a much larger third group
