Back Story:

"Sometimes all the oversaturation of gossip and media sensationalisations get tiring that we see in the news everyday and so I wanted to approach songwriting differently with a sarcastic song. I literally googled something like most overrated celebrities for that time and went down the list and tried to rhyme as many as I can. The lead guitar I did in this I'm really proud of, usually I can critique something but I still to this day don't see how I could have improved it. This song is meant to be a bit of fun. Lady Gaga for instance is actually someone I'm a big fan of and I wrote and recorded this before I even heard about her being in A Star Is Born and I think if I had seen it I probably wouldn't have used her as an example of an overrated celebrity."
