The Big Scoop on Musical Poop
If only I’d known how popular crap songs would become
Now I’m wondering around like a silly old fart full of hot air, wondering where I went wrong in not kicking butt and writing and recording songs on rear-end topics.
I’m feeling pooped!
I suffered from creative constipation this past week, pissed off at hundreds of reads by non-paying members — leeches sucking the blood out of my brain.
As a result, I was feeling full of shit, so am evacuating my anger by finding the funny in how musicians are streaming gold on Amazon Music and Spotify with songs about the extraneous matter which emerges from our rear-ends.
Buzz Feed News reports the likely suspects for this trend are younger kids yelling “poop” at Alexa.
In contrast, I remember approaching recording companies in my younger days with a portfolio of my songs and their answer was always, “they don’t fit into a specific category/genre.”
Imagine how successful I could have been if I wrote about what fits into underwear!
Except Alexa wasn’t born yet, and I wasn’t born yesterday.
Bad timing.
