For the life of me, I cannot understand why anyone would want to visit that site without having to take a shower after they’re done reading. The man has a knack for spotting new pop musicians, but the positives are drowned away by the ridiculous material he comes up with otherwise.
For whatever reason, it’s become acceptable to draw splooge all over girls’ faces, make fun of rehab stints, and generally be an awful human being. Why is this okay with people? It’s terrible behavior for someone who tries to put himself in a good light by promoting charities. More than likely, the byproduct of donations is having his ego stroked, so he can go on about how he saved the kids.
If I could stand to go to his website again, I’d make a tumblr called musicthatawfulhumanbeingsrecommend.tumblr.com, so any people who claim to go to the site just for the music can be satisfied, and not give the guy any more press (like I am right now, incidentally).
Really people, what the hell?
There was a brief period of time a couple of years ago when what he wrote and blogged about was kinda funny in a “oh I shouldn’t laugh but really…” kind of way… but I was utterly disgusted by the way he reacted and reported the breakdown of Britney Spears… and then moved on to rip apart the next celebrity on his shitlist. He’s started to believe his own hype and is just plain mean to… and about… people. The vitriol that he spouts forth about “celebrities” is no longer funny (was it ever really?) and it is beyond my understanding how such an unsavoury person has become such a success.
