Jamie Foxx is a Musician?

Its official. The musical heart and soul of our culture has cancer. Its name is hip-hop and its being spread by posers like this asshole.

Jamie Foxx thinks that he is a legitimate musician. Really? Jamie are you sure, because the last time I checked musicians have to be able to actually play an instrument or sing and usually are able to write their own songs. They don't usually need a feature-cretan to rap a bunch of bullshit to sell their record or have a producer program their entire record. The guys that do that are the actual musicians. Jamie and his ilk are sort of like general contractors putting all the talent together and taking the credit.

Now I'm sure Jamie, you want to take credit for all of your relative success but did you write Georgia On My Mind? No. Did you write any of that tripe that we hear on the radio? No, well except the latest bit of hip-hop vomit Blame It, but do you really want credit for it?

"Blame it on the Goose (goose)
Got you feeling loose (loose)
Blame it on Petron ('tron)
Got you in the zone (zone)
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-alcohol
Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-a-a-alcohol"

Really? Is that what you tell your daughter when she goes out? Just curious.

Yes I know he played Ray Charles and he played the piano and sang in the movie, I just don't think that plunking a few three note chords on the piano and doing an impersonation counts. You don't really think that any of the shots of "Ray" playing were actually Jamie Foxx do you? Well if you do you should probably read the latest post on Intelligent Design too. Gotta believe in something I guess.

Yeah he can sing, a little, but is he really a musician? No I don't think so. Not anymore so than Homer Simpson is a food critic.

I included this picture merely for the fact that he looks like a douche. Love it.

With All Due Respect,
