Gnesa’s Wilder is an audio assault

Oct 17, 2012- Permalink

If you haven’t seen the video “Wilder” by a singer named Gnesa, then you can count yourself among the lucky ones. In days, or perhaps hours, you won’t be able to escape the onslaught of news outlets that will play clips and ponder whether this is better or worse than Rebecca Black’s ode to awful, “Friday”.

Gnesa’s video does not come off as an ad for Auto-Tune, which appears to have either been turned off or incapable of containing the ear-bleeding insanity that Gnesa uses as vocal stylings.

The video, which features poor singing, bland direction, bad outfits and trowel-applied makeup, must surely be the first wave of the “cyber Pearl Harbor” that U.S. Defence Secretary Leon Panetta has warned us about.

Listen at your own risk. I had to stop about 58 seconds in.
