[–]o0DrWurm0o 143 points144 points ago

For those who will trust my opinion because they are too lazy to open the link, it was that bad. Maybe even worse than you're thinking.

edit: As a matter of fact, it's so bad, you should reassess your decision not to watch it.

[–]TheSalsaShark 111 points112 points ago

The worst part is that he seems so proud of himself.

[–]Zoids 32 points33 points ago

Why wouldn't you be. The guy basically bathes in money.

[–]2plus2equalsfish 11 points12 points ago

Seems pretty unhygienic. Money is filthy.

[–]Corbzor 5 points6 points ago

Strippers are perfectly clean before they start the show, they are filthy afterwards. I think it is the contact with the money.

[–]jjones83_83 0 points1 point ago

Right. Contact with money, not giving lap dances to guys wearing sweat pants. That's what makes them dirty

[–]Corbzor 6 points7 points ago

Correct.

Money is one of the dirtiest things we as humans come in contact with.

Even illegal drug residue can exist on money for a long period of time.

Sick people handle money all the time.

A cashiers job is particularly dangerous and they have to wash their hands constantly to avoid getting sick from the bacteria on money.

Paper money is by far the best way for germs to be transfered from person to person. People that are elderly or young or with comprised immune systems should be especially careful when handling money.

[–]cXs808 76 points77 points ago

Imagine a 14 year old picking up a guitar for the first time.

edit: I'm not sure if this would be better or worse than little wayne

warning: if you have delicate ears you may not want to listen to this

[–]Drachri93 2 points3 points ago

Your warning was not strong enough! I feel sick inside.

[–]zedrugjew 1 point2 points ago

O god. O_O the near naked appearance Just tops it off... this is something you regret doing your entire life.

[–]cobaltgiant 25 points26 points ago

Apparently he only knows 2 notes.

[–]FaptainAwesome 11 points12 points ago

That's it, if I ever meet Lil Wayne I'm gonna punch him in the dick. Not just because he did that, but because I watched videos of it. More than one video! MORE THAN ONCE! I will have nightmares tonight

[–]AMeanCow 17 points18 points ago

I'm sitting back in my recliner, surround sound turned up from watching some other videos. I came into the comments on this post with a light-hearted chuckle thinking "I wonder if someone posted the link, I bet it would be funny to see if it's really that bad."

Then I scrolled down a little, and saw your warning. It's a well written warning, and even though the ending of your warning is a tad ambiguous, I take it with dire seriousness now. I was planning on watching, and now because of your plea that I reassess my decisions, I shall not click on that link. Thank you.

[–]gleefulmidget 14 points15 points ago

I-I COULDNT HELP, I CLICKED! OH GOD PLEASE... mother.. im so sorry

[–]o0DrWurm0o 1 point2 points ago

Hey hey hey, that's not what I said AT ALL

you should reassess your decision not to watch it

So only reassess the "not watching" decision. Here's a simple c++ function to explain what I intended for you:

bool reassessedDecision (bool decision) {

if (!decision)

return !decision;

return decision;

}

[–]AMeanCow 5 points6 points ago

It's far too late for that now. I am not a clever man and I misinterpreted your warning, but now my decision is made, your voodoo code speak can't change my mind.

[–]hobbsarelie83 1 point2 points ago

I watched it. I will never again make a mistake so badly

[–]cheesechimp 0 points1 point ago

Oh, it could be worse. After listening to a whole album by The Shaggs I can honestly say Lil Wayne is downright decent in comparison.

[–]niklz 0 points1 point ago

Still not sure if Fred Durst is worse or not

[–]mmb2ba 26 points27 points ago

I think I like this one better, because it's pretty clear the motion of his hands has nothing to do with the audible guitar track.

[–]AnarchoAlan 1 point2 points ago

It's just so amazing how the place the guitar on him.

[–]crater42 50 points51 points ago

His is the undistorted one playing the same two notes over and over again right? That's really really bad. As much as I hate Lil' Wayne I don't want to think this is real. I want to think it's like one of those "shreds" music videos.

[–]VilliThor 32 points33 points ago

Haha, I love those music videos. Here is one of him live though...not much better.

[–]Shadybacon12 48 points49 points ago

Are...are people cheering him.

[–]Gorillaz_Noodle 13 points14 points ago

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

[–]Shadybacon12 25 points26 points ago

I do I just don't want those people on it.

[–]williamsunshine 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, but when it comes down to it- they're not cheering because it's good, they're cheering because it's lil wayne. it's not like his rapping is of any higher calibre.

[–]crater42 11 points12 points ago

It's so damn similar to the "shreds" videos. I can't believe this is actually how he plays the guitar, this is unreal.

[–]crank1000 9 points10 points ago

The smug look of self satisfaction he has afterwards makes me want to kill myself.

[–]heuheuheuheuh 4 points5 points ago

This is what happens to people when they surround themselves with yes-men. Until Lil Wayne surrounds himself with people that don't just drop to their knees and open wide every time he's about to take a crap, he'll continue embarrassing himself.

I love that people actually pay money that they earned to go see this bonehead.

[–]Billy_bob12 1 point2 points ago

Does Codine count as a "yes man"?

[–]heuheuheuheuh 0 points1 point ago

I think Lil Wayne might be the "yes man" for codeine.

[–]crank1000 0 points1 point ago

That's one of the big issues with the new generation of rap (and a lot of music as well). These guys think that because they are the artist, they can also be the producer. But all the great artists had great producers making decisions like "Hey, put down that fucking guitar, idiot."

[–]heuheuheuheuh 0 points1 point ago

I'm not typically a fan of producers interfering with what an artist wants to do, but sometimes even great artists need an extra voice in the room. A second opinion can save you from making stupid decisions.

[–]crank1000 0 points1 point ago

I can't think of any artist or band that wasn't improved by a producer, but to each his own.

[–]heuheuheuheuh 0 points1 point ago

Nevermind was considered too slick, too over-produced by Nirvana. That's just the first thing that comes to mind. It happens.

[–]crank1000 0 points1 point ago

I must confess that as a sound engineer, I am partial to recordings that are much more polished. I do see your point, though, in situations where a producer tries to make something more accessible to the general public - while potentially reducing the accessibility for the people the artist is trying to reach. But in the case of Nevermind, you can't deny that Butch Vig did something right, considering it is far and away their best selling album, not to mention, one of the best selling albums of all time.

[–]xarthaz 0 points1 point ago

Hey, Fred Durst learned to play guitar, Lil Wayne can, too.

[–]Ubaralook -1 points0 points ago

That man is the wigger I hate the most...

[–]karl-marks 0 points1 point ago

That is actually even worse. My ears would be bleeding if that guitar solo hadn't caused me to rip them straight off my head.

[–]jason28 2 points3 points ago

The only band worse than Nickleback is Creed. You sir, have no shame.

[–]crater42 27 points28 points ago

Claiming there is a band worse than Nickleback on the internet? You have no fear of death.

[–]JarlOfBacon 8 points9 points ago

I get why one wouldn't like Creed, but at least their music is real. I like Nickelback until they started making generic bullshit.

[–]Spacemullet 4 points5 points ago

I dislike Nickelback, but Silver Side Up is not a bad album.

[–]came_here_2_say 5 points6 points ago

Yeah, the earlier Nickelback songs like "How You Remind Me" are pretty good, and now it's like, "the fuck is this shit?"

[–]chuckzer0 8 points9 points ago

Cant tell if sarcastic...

[–]came_here_2_say 16 points17 points ago

I'm actually being serious. I like that song... sorry.

[–]funkosopher 22 points23 points ago

It's not like you to say sorry.

[–]R3ap3r973 4 points5 points ago

Oh, fuck. I just got that hernia fixed, too. Call an ambulance.

[–]Charles_Chuckles 3 points4 points ago

sore-ee

Needed more Canadian

[–]evi1 2 points3 points ago

I agree with you. If you look at them in the frame of that one song they are not that bad. When you take in to account the rest of their music is when you start having problems.

[–]GibsonJunkie 3 points4 points ago

I agree. I actually really like Creed, despite what everyone seems to think about them. They've got some good songs, and for the most part didn't get ridiculously overplayed. Also, Mark Tremonti is a fantastic guitarist.

[–]JarlOfBacon 3 points4 points ago

Mark Tremonti is phenomenal, especially in Alter Bridge. There are some videos of him and Myles dueling. Mark tends to drown himself in wah, though, and borders on incomprehensible.

[–]GibsonJunkie 1 point2 points ago

I agree. I feel like he overuses it, but he is just stupid talented.

[–]funktion 0 points1 point ago

I can understand why. I had the Mark Tremonti Power Wah for a good 10 months and that thing was fucking awesome. Had to keep reminding myself to not use it when it wasn't totally necessary.

[–]clush 2 points3 points ago

[–]TropicalBlend 4 points5 points ago

I was thinking of Jimi because that's what the thread is about, but you are right, there is so much talent out there.

[–]cozyswisher -1 points0 points ago

Just...how?

[–]razorbeam 3 points4 points ago

I don't think I've ever asked the following question and genuinely meant it: What the fuck did I just watch?

[–]derpingNherping 3 points4 points ago

I can play a better solo by hitting the chords with my dick.

[–]R3ap3r973 5 points6 points ago

[–]sgrodgers10 2 points3 points ago

[–]sortanos 0 points1 point ago

Reddit, sometimes you show me things I do not want to know about.

[–]Derkek 0 points1 point ago

I figured it was the fanatics saying he was bad and that I being the guy who's never picked up a guitar wouldn't even recognize it was bad.

It was horrible and embarrassing to watch.

[–]guchilist 0 points1 point ago

[–]DuckSake 0 points1 point ago

[–]rumckle 0 points1 point ago

The best thing about that is that Lil Wayne's guitar isn't very loud.

[–]Beanington -2 points-1 points ago

That wasn't so bad, but it wasn't so good either. But does Lil Wayne ever do anything well?

[–]SLICK_EDITOR 1 point2 points ago

He's good at being a retarded dumbass punk

[–]LordCurlyFry 8 points9 points ago

He has a wonderful speaking voice, and an even better singing voice.

[–]JediMasterSam 3 points4 points ago

Thanks for sharing that. That was really cool to watch. When im not on my phone I need to find the full documentary.

He had such a short career. Such a beautiful career that ended far too early.

[–]bladerunner89 34 points35 points ago

I am scared to listen to Lil Wayne's guitar performance now. Is it that bad, or just really simple?

[–]larrycsonka 82 points83 points ago

I gotta give him respect for trying to pick up an instrument and make actual music. However he should realize that you don't need to learn on stage.

[–]Beefsoda 36 points37 points ago

ive seen him all on the high e doing a crazy simple thing using his thumb instead of a pick. and he messed it up. and his guitar wasnt plugged in

[–]iGotChubs4You 4 points5 points ago

If it wasn't plugged in how did you hear it?

[–]BananaHand 21 points22 points ago

Because guitar strings vibrate and produce sound which is picked up by the microphone.

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibrating_string and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBM1LCZKkQg

[–]iGotChubs4You 6 points7 points ago

Yes I know this. But, assumably, it wasnt an acoustic. And only an asshole would play a solid body electric into a microphone.

[–]TheSelfGoverned 15 points16 points ago

He didn't know you could plug it in.

[–]Solidchuck 12 points13 points ago

"The hole must be for a joint lololol"

[–]R3ap3r973 0 points1 point ago

Ironic how his voice is the only distorted thing there, eh?

[–]fivez1a 4 points5 points ago

An asshole? You mean like this guy?

[–]LukaCola 0 points1 point ago

At least he isn't placing his thumb over the neck...

[–]gpwilson 1 point2 points ago

Is that an real, popular method of amplifying a guitar? Seems too stupid to be true. I've never heard of that so my guess is that no one let him plug it in because he's so bad.

[–]mattfbasler 2 points3 points ago

No. An electric guitar wouldn't make enough sound to be picked up on a vocal mic. Even an acoustic guitar at a concert like Lil' Waynes wouldn't come through a vocal mic that much.

In all of the videos I've seen linked in this thread, his guitar has been plugged in. He just doesn't know how to play guitar.

[–]Beefsoda -1 points0 points ago

prerecorded prior to the "concert"

[–]iGotChubs4You -1 points0 points ago

Well that wouldnt make sense for it to be fucked up if that was the case.

[–]IAMA_DrunkAussie_AMA 0 points1 point ago

It was, just wirelessly.

[–]iGotChubs4You -1 points0 points ago

Then it was plugged in just with a wireless adapter.

[–]ruderabbit 17 points18 points ago

Say this aloud:

Deeboodee deebooboodeeboo beedooboodeedoobee.

That is what his guitar playing sounds like.

[–]GoldLegends 12 points13 points ago

It sounds majestic!

[–]actionb0b 4 points5 points ago

That was the most beautiful thing i have heard

[–]Wilderbeest 1 point2 points ago

It's...pretty bad. This is coming from not just a guitar player, but an enjoyer of music.

[–]psyon 5 points6 points ago

Which is what?

[–]I_am_ME_ama 3 points4 points ago

Well for starters he's an entrepreneur. Started his own record label with Baby. Whether or not you care for his music he has been very successful. He is also very involved with Hollygrove and trying to help kids there.

[–]Melvar_10 0 points1 point ago

he should just make money, give to the kiddies, and shut up then :D

Yeah, for some reason this is one of the funniest things I've seen on here. I legitimately felt bad for Hendrix.

[–]dietotaku 2 points3 points ago

i laughed so hard i:

  • snorted

  • cried

  • woke up the baby sleeping on my chest

[–]ChaoticGood_Guy_Greg 6 points7 points ago

You can stop crying Jimi, he retired so he could focus on skateboarding now, and that is not a joke.

[–]deathfix 1 point2 points ago

Nope. According to one of the songs on his on recently released mixtape, Dedication 4, he was high when he said that.

"I'm skatin and rappin at the same damn time

I said I might retire, but ya'll know I be high"

[–]medioCORE 1 point2 points ago
