Hip Hop Community Ridicules K-Fed

It just had to happen one day...

Stop the presses! We were telling you yesterday (and we were totally right) that all those so-and-so reviews that K-Fed got for his performance at the Teen Choice Awards were simply being polite because the real hip-hop artists have finally taken a stand against a man who sullies the very genre that they represent.

'Don't hate me because I'm a superstar! And I'm married to a superstar! Nothin' can come between us no matter who you are!', Mr. Spears rapped on stage in front of a crowd of hormone-crazed female teenagers. Who would waste their time to listen to such profoundly 'inspired' lyrics? Certainly not the outstanding figures in hip-hop for they haven't wasted a second in dishing K-Fed's performance.

Elliot Wilson, editor in chief for 'XXL' magazine hasn't bothered to see the wannabe rapper's musical debut, but he does have a very well grounded opinion on his 'artistic' skills: 'I just think we ignore him. He's a joke, basically... I just don't think he gets it. He doesn't get that he's Britney's man and it's hard to take him seriously'.

The same view is shared by Jermaine Hall, executive editor at 'King' magazine: 'The thing that really hurts him is the fact that he's perceived as Britney's husband. You know, kinda like Britney's second - I don't even want to say second in command, but - he's like Britney's Boy. He's like Mr. Spears, and it's kinda hard to get over that perception'.

And, with the music he makes, it's even impossible to get over him being Mr. Spears or to take him seriously, as a matter of fact. Eminem can rest assured: his position as the best white male rapper is in no danger of being occupied by K-Fed.

And we join Hall in his career advice for Federline: 'All you can do, is really keep on plugging. He's definitely going to have a teenage female fan base. So, you know, make songs that cater to them. Keep it clubby, keep it hoppy, keep it happy'.
