There's songs about drunken santas and arson if you look around too. Some people got the joke(stereogum, rolling stone), but the other Ryan(HI. Yes you) hasn't warmed up quite yet.

"Hey, Ryan Adams: STFU
You guys, the internet is so terrible. Today comes word that Ryan Adams has relaunched his website with a comical new Battlestar Galactica-style interface, soundtracked entirely by the tousled-haired singer/songwriter's own horrific beats and rhymes. Yes, he is rapping. In what is without question one of thee worst aural assaults of the year, Adams subjects visitors to no less than four minutes of a novelty hip-hop track that, at its best, consists of him shouting "NEW YORK CITY!", and at worst, has him putting on his best impression of a rappin' witch. There's also a fascinating song about a drunk Santa. It's a classic Adams wtf moment, a blatent publicity stunt we imagine he feels is unassailable since it's pretty much harmless and is just him goofing off and being his usual obnoxious self. You know what? No. This is basically criminal negligence. Who knows a lawyer?

And what does Mr. Adams has to say about that?

It's there, but i'm guessing that you have some flash/shockwave/ninjamelting issues.

Here's the lyrics btw!

"kevincostner.com what the fuck?" is easily the lyric of the year.

"Look Who Got A Website" �Ryan Adams | Barland Music 2006

Awwwwwww shit.
Look who got a website.

That's right.

Dot com.
What the fuck.

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

New York City it's up!

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

Staten Island.

Ancient Sumerians
Anna Sarriss...
Ohhh shit.

Well if I could get around to my rhymes
Then I could destroy galaxies
of alt.country wannabees
With a bottle of whisky
And a wizard and a mime
Until then?
Dot com motherfucker!

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

New York City!

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

Staten Island
Yo!

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

Anna Serris ohhhh

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

Anna Serris you out of this world
like ancient Sumerians
apparently we came from ancient Sumerians
they came down and gave the world a bunch of technology
because they wanted to clone themselves and that was
and maybe be on the Earth
and get some some stuff that they needed
for their planet
but then they had to split
so they went to another planet
we stayed here
and now we just yell at each other
and have milkshakes
Hi Anna

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

Awww shit Anna Serris

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

You a g-g-g-g-genius

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

Kevin Bacon was a cock!

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

Well up these streets are digital roads
Goin into your mind like if you think it was your nose
and your nose was sucking coke and drinksin E
Trippin' too hard and gotta be
What was a dezzin Kevin Bacon
Makin Waterworld 3
They ain't even made 2 yet
Yo that was Costner partner

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

kevincostner.com what the fuck?

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

updated by witches

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

This website's updated by witches
witches
witches n' me
weird witches
roll about and leap
with their hair on fire
and their nails long
and they're screaming at animals and people
and they're going crazy
and they need to take a break from recording

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

Aww shit - it's a long record.

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

c-c-c-c-c-c-critics

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

One and a half stars yeah!

CHORUS: Mix masters please report to the dance floor

Aww shit
One and a half stars
3 records sold
my record went balsa wood
in Indio or someplace that I'm not from
you know what I'm saying man?
And then the guy goes "This record is very long and sappy.
Basically he's alternative country but crappy."

CHORUS: Welcome to RyanAdams.com motherfucker

Rolling Stone:
If we could nominate a website for president, it would be Ryan Adams' newly updated homepage. Even better than the sweet Tron graphics is the brilliant (and completely batshit) B-boy style rap from Mr. Alt-country himself. Who knew homey was so fixated on Anna Faris and Ancient Sumeria? Oh, and milkshakes and Kevin Costner? ... word to your moms, cousin.

They even made this cute picture.

Clearly Ryan's hero.

Josh in Chicago (Josh in Chicago), Thursday, 28 September 2006 03:44 (nineteen years ago)

I still don't get what's going on in this new internet world where "hahaha it's just stupid shit" makes it somehow okay for shit to be stupid, but as someone who shared a comedy rap with ILM five years ago, maybe I shouldn't talk too much.

nabisco (nabisco), Thursday, 28 September 2006 05:48 (nineteen years ago)

He looks like a young Gary Glitter in that pic.

I lolled, and I don't even like Ryan Adams

bernard snow (sixteen sergeants), Thursday, 28 September 2006 11:18 (nineteen years ago)

nabs, your comedy rap was awesome!

Young Fresh Danny D (Dan Perry), Thursday, 28 September 2006 12:12 (nineteen years ago)

of all the people who bitch about their own press while getting mad stinking top-shelf drinking rich, Adams is the worst. A track review on Pitchfork, dude. Here's a suggestion for Ryan, who will doubtless find this thread at some point: quit Googling your name & skip over any reviews of yr own shit.

Thomas Tallis (Tommy), Thursday, 28 September 2006 12:53 (nineteen years ago)

lol it's beck

-- a name means a lot just by itself

rofl! :D

hahaha

dance dance counter-revolution (fandango), Thursday, 28 September 2006 13:01 (nineteen years ago)

I see the Beck thingy too.

There's more coming anyways. And when it comes to pitchfork.. Alot of the guys/girls over there like Adams. He's gotten good scores for all albums except LIH/RNR.

But it didn't come as a shock that it got the "review" it did.
