Why does class have this mystique that attracts everyone to him, whether it be cause they're butthurt and harbor some grudge towards him or like riding his dick at every turn?

Because he's probably the most identifiable character on this forum, it's impossible to explain, it has to be felt. He's my besty.

Had I stalked your posts, I would have quoted a later post. I read the thread starting from the first page, that's why I quoted on of the first posts. Nice try. :coffee:

I blame his peculiar rap taste, most noobs lurking this forum would wtf at his top 10, or the fact he used to be a pretty big asshole. I'll say this though, the fact that a lot people thought nemesis was made simply to troll class speaks volumes of his character.

TR Shady Proof #357:

If and only if said artist is:
a) White and from the suburbs
b) In possession of shitty voice (because that shouldn't matter at alllll)
c) Disliked by many, thus making it "rebellious" to like
d) Not signed to a major label

Then classthe_king shall defend/support.

In all seriousness though, Kez does have a solid point here. People love overdoing pop culture phrases/fads to the point where they're no longer funny (if they were funny to begin with).

It's ok Kez, we live in a society where the popular culture is to worship the rich & famous, even though it's full of over-hyped, money-driven, vain morons of human beings who can coast through life by managing to fuck someone famous, be good at sports, or being on a show. Ever since Big Brother infected our screens, people aren't concerning to do anything meaningful with their life, except be famous because they wanna be somebody important who other people know, and it's this stupid attitude is why we see shit like Jersey Shore on TV and people want that false lifestyle which isn't real for 95% of humans. Since we see them as demi-gods, people are sheep to whatever fucking trend is cool at the moment, hoping that if they're cool like the stars, they may be popular. It's like fucking school. And the fucked thing is, most stars love attention when times are good, but throw in some negative press, they don't want us to judge them because we don't know them personally, forgetting that we see everything they represent, and worst of all, they don't represent whatever they do, take any manistream rapper doing typical single shit. Makes Hip-Hop look like shit and pushes the stereotypes in people's heads, so when you see the newest music act on MTV, they're not just representing themselves and their culture/age group/race/whatever, they influence society, even more with technology.

And let's not forget, if you're doing a form of art, you're bound to get criticism, otherwise how do we judge good from great?

The Rebecca Black thing pisses me off because there's just no effort put into it. If she tried to write a song and make her own original material at that age (like many people from even this very website itself have done) I would have nothing but respect for her, no matter how shit the end result.

Friday is bad because there is no effort put into it, or creativity. See, what happened is this:

She decided she wanted some fame and adoration, so she told her parents she wanted to make a song.

Her parents went to ARK Music Factory, a company which people pay to produce music for their kids to sing. I'm being dead fucking serious.

Somebody was PAID to write Friday. Think about that.

They whipped up a quick instrumental.

They got her in the studio and shoved corks in their ears while she "sang",
then they autotuned her vocals to fuck and mixed it.

Then it's video time!

Get her all made-up so that boys will actually give her a second glance
(because everyone knows women are ugly beasts without ten tons of makeup on their face)

Put the video on YouTube and use their connections to get it promoted.

Of course you can never plan for viral explosion,
but I think it's perfectly possible that some employee of ARK probably posted the link on 4Chan a couple times pretending to be a hater and let the attention flow.

Ka-ching. Instant attention and fame, as negative as it is, is exactly what she wanted.


Your post was very true, but Black doesn't deserve to even be mentioned in the same paragraph, because she doesn't have an ounce of what your post did; depth. Friday is not creative, there's not an iota of creativity in a 14 year old singing about the weekend which realistically probably just consists of driving around in their expensive cars or maybe drinking a bottle of vodka in the woods and crying about how terrible their lives are because their parents won't increase their allowance. People from this website could write this fucking song in 2 minutes, it is that simple. The fact that she actually PAID to have it written just makes it even worse. This is not music, it has been manufactured so that little kids can feel like they're creative. She is not. And you are all fucking idiots for letting it get this far.

There's a point where you realise that the Internet has become collectively idiotic. Friday is the nail in the coffin of that conclusion. I remember a time when the people who went to 4Chan would absolutely destroy something like this before it grew. Instead, every dumbass 13 year old high school student decides to click "Dislike" and go write comments about how much he hates her on other videos, not realising that he's just fuelling the fire.

People are fuckin stupid man I swear.
