I noticed that Riff Raff's new album "Neon Icon" did not rate a pitchfork review. He also did an over/under on P-fork and was lackluster, ignorant, and not funny. In contrast to Danny Brown's which was awesome. The album pretty much sucks, besides the version of "how to be the man" with Slim Thug and Paul Wall. It even has a terrible rage rock song on it. His show pretty much sucked too.
He has proved himself to be the new Vanilla Ice. I found him entertaining at first, and his awesome Nardwuar interview made me think he had the chops and cred of a real rapper but nah.
I know this post is sure to start a firestorm of controversy among the readers.

But is he real or a character? Dude was on From G to Gents. It's hard to say.

Why are you disrespecting Vanilla Ice like this?
ReplyDeleteI know I am about as far from the target audience as I could be but Riff Raff is like my rage trigger.
I just see him and want to throw something.
Maybe rage rock is a good move for him, harness the hate.

Tried to watch the Nardwuar interview, ended up tearing my cubicle walls down and kicking the office manager in the teeth. Sorry.

I'm ashamed to say I saw him as a guest on MTV's "Ridiculousness", a clip show where people watch YouTube vids of dudes wracking themselves in the nards during failed skateboard or BMX tricks. It was one of only two episodes I've seen where the guest was stupider than the host. The other episode featured Nick Young of the L.A. Lakers, perhaps the most deplorable player in the NBA. This dude's sub-Vanilla Ice in my book. Even thinking back to Kid Rock's early rap records, I think his persona was less loathsome than this guy.
ReplyDeleteI haven't watched MTV in years but I really hope there are still shows dedicated to Nuts gettin wracked.

I watched him on ridiculousness as well. he's not too clever. how to be the man is good, though! but mostly due to slim thug and paul wall
