I think your big problem is that you thought there was some sort of "best of" in there. SHYG is accessible! Fun! Also, I'm not buying your thesis that it's somehow bad hip hop because it's accessible and fun and white people like it. That's like saying They Might Be Giants make bad music because it's accessible and fun and dorks like it: even if your central idea is sound, your reasoning fucking sucks.

My Get-A-Life-loving live-in delight liked it. I liked it! But I also have 70% of your list up there! I can't play them in front of the boy, he tells me to turn the bass down. Also, liking Pretty Toney got me kicked out of a music clique!!!!! They told me to GET SOME CRUNK IN MY SYSTEM!!!!! I can't win with you hip hop fascists.

Ha ha, you were alone on Christmas. Loser.

Handsome Boy Modeling School is not bad because white folks like it, it's bad because it's corny-ass, weakly produced, novelty music. It's bad because it's bad. Wow, how fantastic that your lard-roll loving boyfriend likes it but hates what appears to be all other hip-hop, that's sure a point in it's favor! You can't even make your own arguments. Go back to the polished turds of J-rock and Donald Fagen, lumpsy. And I wasn't alone on Christmas, I made a delicious pot roast, fed a dozen people, and came home to call you an obeast.
