Tim Heidecker Pens Rock "N" Roll Parody About Jonathan Cheban's Grossly-exuberant $1,000 Gold-encrusted Chicken Wings (charity single)



"This is a quick track I put together, after reading about these disgusting gold-encrusted chicken wings 🍗 www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSub4951k9g

The first line from that a$$hole's interview jumped out at me as a good first lyric... I know nothing else about any of these people. I jumped to some conclusions. All proceeds go to LA FOOD BANK!"

Lyrics: "I became friends with Jonathan
Through the nightlife scene
I met him through The Kardashians
He was part of their social media team
I knew him from Instagram
Part of the bouichy Fancy Foodie Fam

We began talking about our dreams and what we'd like to do
We were both young and had come from means
And we wanted what'd get us that clickbait news

We could have done anything,
But we settled on gold-encrusted chicken wings (OH-OOOH WHY?)

We'd serve 'em up all through the night
Charge a thousand bucks for just one plate
And I have to admit, something didn't feel right,
But Jonathan's posts made it all seem great
If they buy it, must be good
Doing what a rich boy should
Trust funders ate it up—there was good press and some bad,
As long as it drove them through the door, even if it is just a stupid fad
We could have done anything,
But we settled on gold-encrusted chicken wing (OH-OOOH WHY?)

Jonathan needed to take some time
He had partied too hard. He had crossed that line
Everybody wanted them at their thing, get their selfie, and kiss that ring
He gave in and let it all go
Pose for the pictures, even if for show
Time moved on and the fad had passed
It haunts me that we didn't do more
We always knew that it wouldn't last
We should have fed the hungry and helped the poor
We could have done anything,
But we settled on gold-encrusted chicken wing (OH-OOOH WHY?)
We could have done anything,
But we settled on gold-encrusted chicken wing (OH-OOOH WHY?)

Jonathan died on his birthday—he had just turned 29
A wasted life has [been] thrown away,
Which remains intact up online
There ain't no water in Flint
There ain't no power in Puerto Rico
We could have done anything,
But we settled on gold-encrusted chicken wing (OH-OOOH WHY?)"

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

Liberty Bell Cracked In 1/2: Ween - "Freedom of '76" (Gene Ween's Final Send-Off)

Chocolate & Cheese (1994) was one of the first albums I bought with my own money. I was in some sort of BMG Music Club , where you'd buy 5 CD's and then get 10 for "FREE." It was all sent through mail order and you picked the titles from some special booklet. I'm almost positive that Chocolate & Cheese's side boob-baring album cover was what initially drew me in... mind you, I was 12-15 and the zany Ween logo/middle finger CD graphic really didn't hurt either. Honestly, I forget how I really felt about it @ the time, but a few years later, my older cousin Josh told me that Ween were this BIG college "jam band." CKY did some sort pf 93.3 radio takeover to promote their new album and played "Freedom of '76" late that night on air. Needless to say, I re-visited Chocolate & Cheese @ about 20-something this go 'round and I fucking loved it! Ween were really weird, yet talented... almost too talented. I can vaguel
