Let's take a look at Hot 97, number one shittiest radio station in the world.
The other day I watched the MTV Asia Aid Concert! And it was pretty good and it even made me feel a little patriotic...like, oooh! oooh! South-East Asia! That's where I'm from! Yaaaay! Just look at how strong and optimistic we are!
Hahahahahahaa....
And you know, this all just reminds me of my recent post about Hot 97, the New York hip hop radio station, which must also be one of the dumbest radio stations in the world. Like I said earlier, they have absolutely no idea where South East Asia is, so maybe if they watched this concert they'd finally realize, oh, China is not in South East Asia! So that little song we used to play on our morning show which basically slammed the tsunami victims and made jokes about chinamen being washed out to sea and losing their country is totally wrong! We were slamming the wrong country! Oh, darn, how hard it is to be racist!
Well, let's hope they finally realize that now. It's no wonder they got it wrong. I suppose the only channel the Hot 97 staff ever watched is MTV. Channels like CNN are probably too difficult for them to comprehend. "Oh, you mean, Korea and Japan aren't the same country?" Gawd, and this is the radio station that claims to be the #1 radio station for hip hop and rnb. I wouldn't want anyone as stupid as that to represent me as number one. And apparently they've always been this insensitive. They've been critized for tasteless jokes before, like making fun of Aaliyah's death. Some people say that this is like a publicity stunt for them.
DJ Todd Lynns, one of the Bitches of the Universe, apologized for his stupidity by saying, "that was one of the biggest mistakes of my life" (you got that right, Toddy boy), and then goes on to say "but none of us are bigots." Hmmm, making fun of people's deaths from Aaliya to tsunami victims, using that as a publicity stunt tool, i would say you are definitely bigots. Not just bigots. Entertainment whores, much bigger entertainment whores than even Britney Spears. She's a saint compared to you guys. Just goes to show that everything that comes out of Todd Lynn's mouth is shit. Just like him.
By the way, I found out who wrote and produced their song. It was Hot 97 morning show producer Rick Del Gado, who has now been fired. Let's hope he never gets a job again and ends up living in ditches and gets beaten up daily before finally being forced to drink petrol and then being set on fire.
Gawd, this is the number one hip hop radio station in New York? And here I thought New York was a civilized place, one of the so-called greatest cities in the world. I think rural villages are more civilized than them.
Okay, anyway, I digress. Back to the MTV Asia Aid Show.
We got treated to a fashion show by host Alicia Keys who looked very serious most of the time but I guess she has to since it's suppose to be an aid concert for a tragedy and all... and what the hell was Jay Chou wearing? Like he has a pretty good wardrobe most of the time and all of a sudden he has to go and wear that! But me and Laughing Liz agreed that he looked so cool, just sitting there at his piano, and then walking off after that...and the way he moved from one song to another on the piano too...
Hmmm...I'm very much in a Jay Chou mood these days! It must be the fact that he just had a concert here and Bundles is walking around in ecstacy because she's seen her hero in the flesh and my watching all his video clips and the Taipei concert with her, not to mention the fact that when I went karaoke-ing with Potatos and Carrots the other day we kept playing the Jay Chou tunes over and over again because that was the only thing Potatos would sing and because we just liked watching his music videos.
And speaking of karaoke, gawd, can we please have the singers' authentic video clips on the TV screen while we're singing along? I don't know how I put up with all those karaoke video clips of really ugly white women sitting on park benches or beside a dock or sailing along some random river in really ugly clothes that even my grandmother would have declared are waaay out of season while smiling and flipping their hair at the camera and basically doing nothing else. They were really awful. I thought those kind of videos went out of fashion, like, years ago. Ew.
I say give Hot 97 over to the South-East Asians. We'll punish them right. You'll see. We'll torture them all the way. Put bamboo shoots under their fingernails, make them drink petrol and hot water with chilis in them, the works. The Japanese invasion didn't go by without teaching us a thing or two.
