Huh, well I guess that’s one way to parlay some dubious notoriety into video views to promote one’s mediocre musical efforts.

Right there at the 8 second mark! Did you hear what I heard?
EDIT: Sneer all you like, hipsters. I quite liked that, especially the guitar part. Boo-hoo, it’s not Pere Ubu.

Does this happening music star know there’s already an Eminem?

I clicked for the Eminem before I realised it was a Russian knock-off.

Don’t you have to actually sell records to be a pop star?
Forbes says he’s sold 700 albums in his entire career.
“According to Nielsen’s stateside music numbers, the singer has clocked just 631,000 on-demand audio streams, 20,000 song downloads and 700 album sales in his entire career. ”

It’s not about the music. The video is a seed for the upcoming wave of conspiracy theories after the pee pee tape is released.

Was that suppose to be Kim at the end ?
Naah… not sure this is as stupid as you guys think.
To me this reads; “You still haven’t repealed the Magnitsky act? The clock is ticking regarding that pee pee tape my friend.”
That the threat is made in a music video is most likely primarily motivated by the chance to boost the kid’s career. They surely could have come up with less laborious ways to get the message across. But still, it seems clear that Trump’s friendship with the Algarovs must be firmly over for some reason, and you kind of have to wonder what happens next.
