It's not Friday the 13th, but it should be! (My unfortunate encounter with Rebecca Black)

If there are any music reviewers out there, please rip this music apart!

Trust me, you rather encounter Katy Perry than her!

I thought Kesha was the only party girl I have to deal with when it comes to bad pop songs (though there are many others), but Rebecca Black takes the cake!

Unlike Kesha's songs that are surprisingly catchy (and yes even Rick Astley or Starship), a song by Rebecca Black would probably give me a heart attack!

So how did I encounter her?  Well, it was by accident since I was looking for songs that were relevant to Friday besides Katy Perry or The Cure.  In addition, I also heard it got top marks by having the majority of dislikes on Youtube.  Yet, Simon Cowell has yet to release his statement on the current pop music trend.

Just to make it clear, Simon Cowell had gone AWOL when this scratching blackboard track was released!  If he was so dead serious about becoming a real critic on the X Factor, then he shouldn't have slacked off when he left American Idol.

By the way, I don't care what people say, but American Idol blows.  Ever since Jasmine was booted off, I have no hope of that show anymore.  Besides Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood, nobody really wins in American Idol since participating on that show doesn't guarantee any increased publicity!

When's the last time anybody talked about Justin the runner up, Clay Aiken, Ruben Studdard, Kellie Pickler, or even Taylor Hicks?

That aside, I got curious by clicking on her music video.  If Willow Smith and her agents were watching this, despite their horrible track, they would sigh in relief and glad that their song doesn't suck as much as her's.

It's a mess.  The artist can't sing, the music video is distorted, the auto-tune was ineffective, the rapper's cameo is cliched, and did I mention that she can't sing.

The worst part?  She already become infamous by appearing with Katy Perry with her song, ironically called 'Last Friday Night'. 

Yet another disqualified artist who would join with the likes of Tommy Wiseau and Ed Wood; cashing on the bad publicity in order to create marquee name value.

  1. I must confess that I'd been too hard on Rebecca now that I figured out it's your average nobody who found fame on Youtube! Remember Chocolate Rain or that What guy? You know what I'm talking about!
    Because of the saturating popmusic I have to deal with in 2011, it's no wonder Rebecca had the attention.
