Baby gets back

On random tonight Tender by Blur came on my iPod. It reminded me of a great moment at a Justine Frischmann gig (could have been Elastica but I can't remember). 13 had just come out and she was obviously pissed off by it. She said, "my ex just released an album of 13 tracks dissing me, I've written a song".

The lyrics were:

You hate me,
I hate you,
So why can't you just fuck off.

Repeat x10.



What is your favourite musical rebuttal?

Not musical as such, but I did enjoy the Lily vs Cheryl scrap earlier this year. Especially when Chezza said "Lily, I'm sending you a free ticket to our sell-out arena tour - because it's the only way you'll ever see one". Class.

I *completely* forgot Lady Sovereign's trashing of Jentina. Apparently Jentina's first single, Bad Ass Strippa, got on Sov's nips so much that she circulated a version, based around the same O'Jays sample, named Sad Arse Strippa - which made Jentina a laughing stock and ultimately destroyed her career.

Choice lines included:

You was born in a caravan
That don't make you ghetto
I've seen more ghetto
In Posh Spice's stiletto


and

You've been chatting about yer Gucci thong
But how many weeks bitch have you had it on?
I can tell by your dances
That it's somewhere stuck up your bum


*Marvellous*
