This fucking guy. It’d be great to never hear about him again.
His face is so punchable, but I never get to punch it!
never give up, never surrender
Sigh, By Grabthar’s hammer
What a savings.
Gotta thundergun your fist right into his face.
He reminds me of a dopier-looking version of Dr Crane from the Dark Knight movies.
Shit I’d trade Elon for this fucker any day.
Him and Musk should do a hip hop video from inside of a fiberglass submersible touring the titanic.
Drops a couple mil on an album and rips it to MP3 instead of FLAC. The fuck is wrong with this man?
You have me giggling over here mate. But it’s true!

This is one of those truly great moments where you can hate all sides of this. They’re all kinda shitty skeezy assholes, so whoever loses is a net win for humanity.
Wu-tang is for the children.
So it goes.
Hmmmm. Best outcome I can think of would be the judge telling the dao to fuck off then putting pharma bro back in prison because.
That article was hard to read because of how smug and douchey Shkrelis quotes are.
Fuck Martin Shkreli. Fuck him in his stupid asshole.
.
He’s so deluded in delusion. Trey and Matt should make an episode where he is the only coherent character, and everyone else is speaking his wackadoo nonsense whenever it cuts to his perspective.
Trey and Matt are both libertarian douches who probably think that Shkreli is based.
Stupid idiot bragging about having MP3s to a priceless album. He doesn’t even have the FLACs?
Prob had to stuff 128bit recordings up his prison wallet
This should be fun; who will the terminally online hate more, Shkreli or a group of NFT grifters?
Both?
Both is good.
Wu Tang did NFTs? That’s hilarious and sad
Edit: would be a lot funnier if there were Wu Tang NFTs
PleasrDAO, who purchased it from Shkreli, is some sort of NFT group apparently. And they’re suing because they have plans to make money off limited listening events lol
Well… consider the source. It’s Wu Tang. Hilarious and sad is kind of their thing.
Why are you talking shit about wu tang?
For real, I’ve heard they are nothing to fuck with.
I thought whoever bought it also got the rights to do that?
The suit was filed by PleasrDAO, a digital art collective that purchased the album from Shkreli in 2021 after Shkreli was ordered to fork it over to cover a $7.4 million forfeiture tied to his 2017 fraud conviction. (Shkreli purchased the album for $2 million; PleasrDAO paid double that.) According to the lawsuit, Shkreli violated the terms of both the original purchase agreement and the forfeiture order by allegedly making and retaining a digital copy of the album, playing it during his live streams, and sending it to others.
I don’t like seeing anyone sued for music piracy but I’m glad it’s him.
Ah. So now it makes sense why anyone cared.
If that’s true, it’s epically retarded…
IIRC, that was part of the deal buying this and part of what made it so expensive and unique. News article at the time talked at length about the secrecy aspect. Kinda dumb IMO but I understand a super fan wanting to own something like this. The fact that this A hole bought it instead then immediately broke contract…
Nah, I think not until 2139 or something
Obviously it was so he could upload it to Archive.org… right?! /s
Link appears to be broken
It takes time for the tiny url redirect but does work
The poster boy for Backpfeifengesicht
Reading the headline with a wuxia background and not knowing that there’s a hiphop group that took the literal same name as the classic martials art clan, I was quite confused.
Listen to their stuff. It’s relevant
Relevant to what? according to wikipedia they are credited for revitalizing “east coast” hiphop, so not even american, but a section of the US, and I’m not even from that continent. It would surprise me that what they say is relevant to my local history, and there’s tons of music media that criticise the current society, I’m not going to listen to a media type I won’t enjoy.
Sorry if I came brusque but so did you.
My guy, you don’t have to go so hard. All I was trying to say is if you listen to their music you’ll find that their whole shtick and major inspiration is kung fu movies. Many of the samples in their songs are from old kung fu movies.
It’s Wu-Tang. Wu-Tang is for the children. If you don’t know, then don’t worry about it. Bill Murray!
Hilarious that someone is more willing to read a wiki than just listen to a song. 🤣
Maybe they’re just aware that the Wu-Tang Clan ain’t nuthin’ to fuck with…
Well, the first thing that pops up on google is a wikipedia page so… I did listen to the tip two songs in tidal, not to my liking at all.
When keeping it real goes wrong.
I mean I hate Martin Shkreli and rap, so this is really a win-win scenario. I mean if I had that kind of album that was supposed to be one of a kind, I’d have that bitch uploaded to some Chinese website in about an hour on principle.
Idk how anyone hates an entire genre. Just sounds like you haven’t listened to enough. I go just hates all rock music? All jazz music?
I’ve never heard a good country song, and before you link anything, if its good I don’t consider it to be country.
