Name your lame duck artist........


What artist do you put above all others in terms of lack of talent but somehow has achieved success?

For me Madonna has to be the queen of mediocrity (mediocre being a compliment in this case) - can't sing or act and what's with the fake english accent after living there a whole two years.
And don't get me going with all these new female jazz "singers" with that vomit inducing vibratoless whisper that seems to have become mandatory in that genre today......Jones clones.

For all my rock is better than rap, behold:

Boston. It really was more than a feeling?
Foreigner. Try not to cringe when listening to Hot-Blooded.
Styx and Stones. Enuff said. Styx: still waiting for the spaceship. The Stones: also break my bones for dialing it for three decades.
Kiss: should never base a career on a tongue. Which is also the case of the Stones? Wow.
Hair Metal: came and felt the noise: was bored like wet Spandex.

But don't feel so bad, there is always 2010:

Lady Gaga: should probably focus on a career in fashion.
TT: Kanye is dope. Made hip hop fresh again. Like the pine air freshener in my 63 Chevy lowrider with 20 inch rims.
Lets not forget the rest of the clan;

Huey, Dewey, Louie
Dumbella Duck
Scrooge McDuck
Gladstone Gander
Gus Goose
Grandma Duck
Quackmore Duck
Hortense Duck
Grandpa Duck
Ludwig Von Drake
Oh Oh, look who just arrived....come on in and make yourselves at home.

Dmob - great to see you coming in with guns blazing like that.....loved it. I was afraid to mention Diana Krall since there is a huge Kraller army on here. It was just like the infantry arrived.

Hey Bongo - looks like you got Darkmeobius all beered up before you guys kicked the door in.
Don't agree on the Kanye thing though - I never thought hip-hop stopped being fresh and never really got it when people said that about him. Plus, I have always been into a little more of the underground stuff, and to get the cover of time magazine I would have expected him to invent a whole new genre. As I said - great producer but I never could get into his rapping. When people from Sao Paulo speak they tend to sound like they are moaning (complaining) and Kanye's voice comes across to me like that too.
Great post too Bongo.
By the way, why should Kiss not make it based on a tongue? Jelo did it based on an ass.
Dmob - have you been reading my diary? Sounds like every name you mentioned was in there.
