Noel Gallagher Blasts Hip-Hop & R&B

Noel Gallagher of Oasis isn’t a fan of hip-hop and tells Time Off magazine he’s just not “havin’ it” any longer. “I fu**ing hate it… and R&B, and all the people that make that kind of music and all the people that buy it,” Gallagher fumed. “When you see the videos of some guy throwing $100 bills over a naked woman lying on a bed with a dog leash around her fu**ing neck… what the fu** is all that about? That to me doesn’t seem to be right somehow. Back in the 70s/80s, if that was done by a rock n’ roll band, it’d be called sexist and there’d be shock, horror and outrage. For some reason, hip-hop artists tend to get away with that. It’s all about the bling and the money. The critical thing about these fu**ers is they go on about increase the peace’ and getting kids to stay in school, but they’re all raving crack heads. It’s a fake form of music to me, and they’re all a bunch of idiots anyway.”
