Politicians making music

Is bad. Very, very bad. Exhibit A:



Why a man with the personality of a wet blanket decided to appropriate the braggadocio world of rap as the most appropriate medium to get his message across is unclear. It just ends up making me side with Bashy on this one: "Put Prescott in a headlock / then piss in his eggnog." Indeed. When you're getting out-dueled with those types of lyrics it's time to give it up.

Equally I think we all know how wrong it is for Gordon Brown or David Cameron to go on about their favorite bands. Shut the hell up. You're not meant to be cool and like music. Just get on with doing boring things like setting VAT rates and making policy about pensions. Politicians and music is like sex and your parents. Two separate things that should never ever collide.

The only time this rule can be broken is when politicians are unwittingly made to make music. (This exception to the rule does not apply in the case of sex and parents.)



Quite how long this auto-tune gimmick will last before it becomes totally played out and just not funny any more is debatable. But a conservative answer is probably two to three weeks. As such I better get this gem in:



Ok so he's not a politician. Just a prostitute beating pervert. Still funny though.
