Thank you Rebecca Black: new music video defies the very notion of “music”

Thank you, Rebecca Black. In today’s Viral of the Day, I’d like to propose to you a music video like few others out there, and it’s all thanks to Rebecca Black, who literally paved the way for this with her “Friday” song.

The woman in the video above goes by the name Gnesa and she is – or likes to pretend she is – a singer.

I do believe this is her first music video but, even if it’s not, that’s irrelevant because it might as well be, having captured the attention of media representatives from the four corners of the world.

Gnesa could not carry a tune if her life would depend on it, that much is clear. The production value of the video is similarly absent but that isn’t stopping many from wondering out loud: is this the worst song ever, or simply the best worst song?

The answer could make all the difference, because the latter would buy Gnesa the same kind of fame and exposure Rebecca got when “Friday” went viral.

Truth be told now, if I weren’t having so much fun with “Wilder,” I’d be totally embarrassed.
