my god. Kanye’s first time begat Justin Bieber…
Last week, Urlesque writer Emmy Blotnick mocked up a parody of Justin Bieber and Kanye West’s Twitter conversation.
Then someone put it on Tumblr, where it got over 6000 notes. Because people thought it was real.
When I saw that no one realized this came from Urlesque, I yelled a dirty word and hit a table.

Cee-Lo Music Video of the Day: “Fuck You”
Pre-video video (official one drops next week). Single hits October 4th; Lady Killer release date TBD.
[getthatlook.]
OH SHIT! This is so good I almost can’t fucking take it!
To be filed under “I love the living crap out of Cee-Lo and will tumbl anything he does.” Don’t you wish you could sing and talk like him whenever you wanted like an on/off switch? Life would be so much better if you had the option of bossing around the assholes of the world with a Cee-Lo style “EXCUSE ME!”
The NYT article in reference is a bummer, but the Hipster Runoff comment section here is such excellent comic relief. Some selections:
- “@FUCKBAGS, yeah bruh. 23, 25K/year jobby but i live @ rent’s house so I can still have a meaningful lifestyle [via no rent/food costs]. Also feel like i may get ‘fired’ from work ‘at any moment’ due to some sort of ‘lackluster work ethic’. Idk, just feel like we were raised on promises [via tom petty] and now the word is totally ‘boning us’. i really dk, just feel like i should be able to chill forever for free and get all the things i want in life without any real struggle at all.”
- “@FUCKBAGS, i know bro, i went the grad school route. now 23 with 2 meaningless degrees, a futon in my parents basement, and 129 dollars to my name. going to run out of cash soon (via 3 steel reserve 40’s a day habit).”
- “Feel a lot more ‘normal’ after reading this. In celebration, gonna chill extra hard today.”
- “scared yall, what if i spend my life searching 4 buzzbands and nvr do anything meaningfulcore.”
- “so happy i’m not a ginger.”
Oh, like you’re searching for something more important.
I see you and raise you:
This is WORK.
I wrote up this Kanye West video for “Power” on Urlesque last week and essentially said the experience of watching it is like wearing Kanye goggles, like this is how he sees the world all the time.
But here’s what needs to happen next: Kanye goggles in action. I would love love love to see a video where he’s doing boring old normal people shit and the perspective flips back and forth between real life and POWER.
“Would you like regular or unleaded?”
(Kanye totally spaces out looking serious, we hear the “Power” chant, “EYYYYY-EY AHA”)
“Sir?”
You get it.
