The only point you'll ever have is that you represent the sad, fedora-wearing, bloated face of capitalism in the 21st century.
Unfairly made famous and rich through copied ideas and appealing to kids. And yet is driven by some bizarre need for attention to spout insane, teenage edge lord style views. You are clearly not all that up on politics (or anything, maybe you can code?) yet your wealth has given you an oversized platform of confused 12 to 16 year olds to yell "sjwjjwjwj" at over and over again.
Honestly, I don't give a shit if you've been driven mad by fame or some bullshit. When I see amazing creative people dying depressed in poverty every day and you get to sit on twitter and make half assed 'now yur the nazi' comments, it's fucking sickening.
Yeah, but he did it for a laugh and the articles and the profile. It was a good career move for him. This dude just fucked himself publicly. I wonder what he thought would happen? That he'd take England by storm, that we'd all come charging out to see some guy we'd never heard of for £15 a ticket?
Shitty musician? Maybe. Can’t tell. Don’t listen to greasy long hair mayo noise. But the dude could make a living as a producer. Managed to land a European tour with literally 0 fans, managed to book some apparently pretty well known venues and now might even sell them out through some obscure media coverage.
He clearly planned this for awhile and knew he had to pretend to be famous in order to book these places. I can't imagine how much money he spent buying likes and views.
Thats fair I suppose, if youre speaking as to your own tastes. I thought it was pretty good for someone with 0 fans and 0 ticket sales thats obviously doing everything on his own, including I believe playing all of the instruments.
No, I think he’s legit deluded. Back in the MySpace era, most bands cooked the books to one degree or another. Spending hours adding people who weren’t going to see them anyway, sort of thing, but I don’t know if anyone’s done it on this level at all.
He’s now tweeting about there being some sort of grander point to it all, however, this seems to have all been done with borrowed money.
"and lied about ticket sales numbers in order to book gigs in certain European clubs."
I used to have a venue and this kind of guys are ruining people life; they are everywhere nowaday, you have to be able to check constantly their sales by calling left and right, checking internet etc.
Yeah, "lmao bussy" aside, this guy's actually a cunt. Everyone " respecting the hustle", doesn't realize he's fucking over talented people who've worked their whole live for this.
No, I actually have to do more than my job, I have to control childish cunts that have no idea what a disaster it can be to invest in their lies.
Unlike them I haven't the time and resource to spend on their case constantly and as you could see if you weren't that retarded some big companies are being fucked over too, happens all the time.
In case you don't know scammers are pretty resourceful. That's is how this twat managed to fucked over musicians and if the venues he booked were a bit smaller he could have carried on for quite a bit.
It ain't our job to spy on everyone, and sometimes I have barely the time since I'm fucking your fat mum too.
While it seems that he went too far with the lying and dishonestly, to the point of opening himself up to possible legal action....you have to admire the sheer bravado of this guy.
We live in a fake it until you make it culture, and had this guy pulled it off, people would be saying things like "Brought his musical message to the masses from outta nowhere", or "In a show of marketing brilliance he rose to the top", or some other form of kudos. Instead, he got busted, got shamed, and is being thrown around as a joke.
I know nothing of him, don't know his music, don't really care on way or the other, but at least he does something, he plays an instrument or instruments. Just on slight (or more perhaps) musical skill and market manipulation, this guy is miles ahead of so many current "stars" whose greatest claim to fame is the biological endowment of a vagina.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the meeting going on right now is about that, the written agreement that the EU & UK have proposed mentions there being no hard border (I think, it’s not been released, just leaks/speculation) but NI will still be in the Single Market and Scotland won’t, Mother Nicky doesn’t like that - none of us do.
I don't understand how you can look at his shittily edited video that cuts between a huge crowd that looks like Rock in Rio and this guy alone on stage and believe it for one second. A crowd of 20,000 in his promotional video, only 291 tickets pre-sold, "yea this guy looks legit we'll let him play our venue".
I can’t stop laughing at that first video where he’s alone in front of a narrow backdrop with no lighting effects and the camera is zoomed out enough that you can literally see that that’s all there is to the setup. THEN it shows 20k fans in an audience. I found myself saying “wait wait wait wait” out loud.
Seriously. This is the definition of fake it til you make it. If they make a "phrase"/euphemism" dictionary, they can literally just put a pic of this Jared Thretin guy.
This reminds me of a similar sort of story with a guy named Cory Machado. Bought tons of fake followers on twitter (over 1 million) and claimed to be a world famous pro soccer player. Even managed to get himself verified on Twitter. Turns out the soccer team he claimed to play for didn't actually exist. There is a lot of weird stuff surrounding him and his fake life. Like a fake documentary narrated by "Morgan Freeman". The craziest part is he managed to catfish a female pro-wrestler into a relationship based on his status as a famous soccer player. He's dropped the facade eventually but she still ended up marrying him and threw away a potentially promising career.
There is a thread on Kiwifarms about him if you want to know all the details. It's kinda fascinating. It's even updated with his latest attempts to be a wrestler and start his own wrestling promotion and all the weird stuff surrounding that too.

There's also Carlos Kaiser), who managed to join no less than seven clubs in Europe and South America, always pretending to be injured to avoid actually having to play.
I bet that what we're doing here was his real endgame. None of us had ever heard of this guy but his story has 268 upvotes. There are a couple people in the comments saying "I listened to his stuff and it's not all that bad." He knew the jig would be up after his first live show, but now he has an opportunity to build up a real fanbase who otherwise would have never looked him up. In 10 years the venue where he got his start is gonna be begging him to play for them and he'll be making lots of stupid demands like "I want a kiddie pool full of crispy M&M's, but replace the orange ones with Skittles."
Making music that's "damn good" is only one way to convince lots of people to spend money to watch you perform. Generating good sound waves is only one skill in a working musician's toolkit.
The CMA awards amount to nothing more than signal boosting by music row of the urbanized crap they push on FM radio for a slightly larger market share.

That's fucking funny. Underworld is a well known venue in London, you usually don't get to play there without being somebody in the rock scene.

Dude’s in the wrong business. Shitty musician for sure but definitely a bomb ass producer. Needs to overthink his career options.

Yeah, but he did it for a laugh and the articles and the profile. It was a good career move for him. This dude just fucked himself publicly. I wonder what he thought would happen? That he'd take England by storm, that we'd all come charging out to see some guy we'd never heard of for £15 a ticket?

1 DerekSavageCoolCuck 2018-11-14
He is playing some seriously generic sounding stuff there, there is far more interesting metal. Meme music doesn't have to be good though.
Hmm... But being a manager for a band that already has some momentum behind them isn't the worst idea for him.
1 Greatmambojambo 2018-11-14
Are you kidding? If he managed to pull this stunt off with no name & no fans, imagine what this dude can do with some momentum.
1 DerekSavageCoolCuck 2018-11-14
I'm not kidding? Said it wasn't a bad idea. Just think he might battle to get hired after these stunts depending who he approaches, idk.

Seems like it. Dude apparently has some cash to throw around to buy views/comments and a somewhat professional video.
The music was absolute garbage, but maybe that speaks more to him having no real interest in it.
