Have you heard of this atrocity known as Rebecca Black with her smash hit "Friday"?  If you haven't, I implore you to look it up on youtube.  I will warn you though that you will be greatly disappointed in our youth for their brain washed taste in music.  I've heard people compare her as the next Justin Beiber.  Don't get me wrong, I don't have a thing for the Beib but I think he at least has talent.  At least the bare minimum to be able to be a pop sensation.  Which, lets me honest, most pop starts can be lacking in that department, aside from the most fantastic Christina Aguilera. 

The music video "Friday" becoming a hit is what I can only assume as the the beginning of the 2012 apocalypse.  It led Aaron and I in to a conversation of "is there any real music still out there?  Or is it all about who you know?" 

Everyone is allowed to have their own taste in music, but is it really fair that POD, Papa Roach, and Nickleback are still rocking the airwaves when really talented bands go unnoticed?

On the flip side as soon as a band is put out there they lose their street cred and become to overly produced.  (Ahem, Against Me! I was a huge fan and your last album was crap.)

This is the Bronx.  They keep it real.  

Plus I will always enjoy a music video that attempts to turn band members in to children, but makes them look like awkward midgets instead.
