Don't get me wrong, he's still probably a chronic masturbater, but the coke doesn't allow him to finish so he just records himself running around and yowling like a sick cat. 😭😭
Look at him wiping his nose and punching the air. 😂 Mf just did a fat ass line before he his record.
Satire is the better shout; he's just making deliberately terrible, uncanny valley songs. Almost like an outsider art project.
Don't have the links myself but there was another post of this dude yesterday, and there were plenty of links in the comments to him actually properly singing and stuff. He's very much not serious, and it's a testament to how good at this he is that it's so difficult to tell organically haha.
I’ve heard this take but still have yet to see any convincing proof. I feel like it’s still possible he’s just not quite all there mentally. Incidentally, still pretty interesting outsider art.
Same. I saw a video he posted responding to negative comments and he absolutely loses his shit. Like, he got MAD mad. And I doubt there's a video of him that exists of him singing well. I think this guy is a toxic finance bro who delusionally thinks he's the next Phil Collins.
this is just not convincing evidence at all my man. I’ve seen both of these when he posted them. I’m sure he’s aware of some humorous aspect of what he does but to me it doesn’t strike me as true self-aware surrealist intentional weirdness. If there’s a joke, he’s only in on the part that he’s choosing to be in on; if that makes any sense.
Naw, this guy is 100% serious about all of it. That new song that sounds better is just one where he buried his vocals further down in the mix. It's still all autotuned and AI garbage.
Eh that's your opinion, which you're absolutely entitled to, and it's more fun that way. Absolutely not going to argue; only big F knows the real truth eh?
I sent gim a message on insta , not making fun on him but saying that it would help him a lot if he took some singing lessons.
And he basically replied like "wtf are you talking, Im good , I got a big fan base so who the hell are you to say my singing is bad?
I cannot believe someone is this extreme tone deaf and doesnt hear whats wrong with his voice 🙈.....
Which makes it even funnier. He’s really committed to the bit. It ain’t funny if you’re going to half ass it like that one dude that just sings shitty sounding versions of hit songs.
It's not always satire. Satire is a specific form of social commentary that utilizes comedy when it speaks uncomfortable truth to power. Satire requires intent and a power structure to mock intentionally.
If this is supposed to be comedy, it's not even irony. I'd say this humor works on subversion of our expectations. We expect to hear certain styles of singing with a backing track like the one here. It is humorous when we do not hear that kind of singing but instead mumbled humming (or whatever this dude is doing) thus subverting our expected preconceived notions. Because it subverts our expectations to a humorous degree, this is (possibly unintentionally) an application of subversion as comedy.
To be fair, trying to explain humor and attach rules to it seems incredibly pointless. Humor is 100% subjective. As for satire, here is the first definition that pops up.
Satire: the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.
Again, this is all 100% subjective. Humor, irony, etc... its all dependent on the people involved. What one person finds humorous another person might find mundane, stupid, or offensive. Just because one person, or multiple, dont agree with the humor doesnt make any difference. This just comes across as someone trying to state their opinion as if it were fact rather than just an opinion. Typically not a good look
Definitions are objective fact, not subjective opinion. Taste is subjective opinion. Taste in humor is subjective opinion. Glad we agree.
This is the definition for satire you used:
Satire: the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.
Good definition! Now apply that definition of satire to this video and ask yourself how the music of this video fits the definition. In particular how does it seek "to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues?"
My entire point is that the word satire is being overused and applied incorrectly all over this sub. I am not speaking to anyone's taste in humor with that statement. The definitions of words are objective facts, not subjective opinions.
Most likely parody if he's doing this intentionally to lampoon pop artists. Much less deliberate and on the nose than say Weird Al, but it could be parody.
I called it subversion because I don't think he is trying to be funny. We find it funny because the failure of seriousness subverts the expectations built on the sincerity of his backing track. It becomes absurdist in the same way audiences view The Room.
bro i am not kidding the vocal treatment scratches my brain in a way i can’t get over. unironically, there is something very good about parts of this. reminds me of this one song by dj sabrina
Just like youth is wasted on the young, money is wasted on those that can count themselves among the wealthy. I'm not saying this dude is a billionaire or anything, but this strikes me as the kind of thing someone with a lot of disposable cash gets up to.
How else would someone with zero talent be able to spend the time and money to record at this quality?
Even if it costs .35 cents, its a colossal waste of resources and pisses me off.
You do have a point. I go to the main sub if I actually want mindless entertainment though the amount of times I see reposts lately on the main feed is insane
u/NumberNumb, your post features certified crappy music!
Never seen without his jizzrag
You gotta jizz to jazz
I thought this was Mongolian throat singing
If that’s the case, he’s the Mongolian throat GOAT.
This^
He looks like a chronic masturbator with those sweatpants and the rag.
That's for the coke sweats, bb. 😏
Don't get me wrong, he's still probably a chronic masturbater, but the coke doesn't allow him to finish so he just records himself running around and yowling like a sick cat. 😭😭
Look at him wiping his nose and punching the air. 😂 Mf just did a fat ass line before he his record.
GO AWAY!, I'm Bate'N!
He almost defenestrated himself
And you never will!
Big fan of the wheelchair accessible suicide window. Very convenient.
In case the first try doesn't take
It's so easy to access!
Fuck this guy singing with his nostrils makes me think he only does this after being awake for 24 hours doing blow
I think it’s about time you start getting a little bit better along.
He screams weekend coke warrior. 😭😭
heeee heeeee
I’m with you HEEEEEUGHHEIUUGH

Your my hearttttt
(My heart)
BABY GIRL!

LOVE!
This man is unstoppable.
Dwindling pile of coke: 😏
He sounds like he’s at the beginning stages of whatever the heck RFK Jr has
Did he record this in front of a fan?!
Take my money, Franke, I'd buy all your albums.
This is a rare case where I actually do enjoy it more knowing it's parody.
It's SO well crafted and is absolutely believable enough. Absolutely love this guy.
EEEEUUUUURRRRAAAAUUUUGHHHHGGGEEEERRRUUUUGGGHHHHHAAAEEEEUUUURRRGGHHH
I keep seeing people say that it's parody or satire. How do you know that? What is he parodying?
Satire is the better shout; he's just making deliberately terrible, uncanny valley songs. Almost like an outsider art project.
Don't have the links myself but there was another post of this dude yesterday, and there were plenty of links in the comments to him actually properly singing and stuff. He's very much not serious, and it's a testament to how good at this he is that it's so difficult to tell organically haha.
Edit: here's him actually singing an actual song , and here he is performing a very, very obviously satirical song
Can you post those videos? I just don’t believe this is satire
There's this :) also edited another into OC.
I’ve heard this take but still have yet to see any convincing proof. I feel like it’s still possible he’s just not quite all there mentally. Incidentally, still pretty interesting outsider art.
Same. I saw a video he posted responding to negative comments and he absolutely loses his shit. Like, he got MAD mad. And I doubt there's a video of him that exists of him singing well. I think this guy is a toxic finance bro who delusionally thinks he's the next Phil Collins.
I have googled "franke 2.7 theories". I'm very invested but the lore is contradictory.
Nah again, he's very, very good at playing the bit.
Edited OC with a couple of links:).
Watched the links. Satire is also supposed to be funny.
Added a couple of links to oc:).
Feel free to not be convinced still; more fun that way.
this is just not convincing evidence at all my man. I’ve seen both of these when he posted them.

Oh my gosh there’s so many of them though?
This isn't parody or satire. This guy is 100% serious.
Edited OC to have a couple of links that very strongly counter that view!
Naw, this guy is 100% serious about all of it. That new song that sounds better is just one where he buried his vocals further down in the mix. It's still all autotuned and AI garbage.
Eh that's your opinion, which you're absolutely entitled to, and it's more fun that way. Absolutely not going to argue; only big F knows the real truth eh?
Franke, drop the act.
IT'S A LAAAAAAAAUUUNG
WAAAAAYYY
DAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAUUURRRGGGHHHNNNN
EEEEEUUUUUAAAAARRRRRGGGGHHEEEEE,
EEEEUUURRGGGHHHAAAAAAAUUUGGGHH
love this guy
The bleating of it all
Delilah walked so C could run
I adore this man.
I do too
Someone needs to hang that mic…
What is this accent
Nungbyrah yeh yeh yeh yeh
This guy has to have a hearing impairment, because you can’t hear this shit and think it sounds good.
He’s just riffing. He’s like scatting. Like super scat. Like scatting all over the place.
I just spit hot coffee all over the place
He spits hot fire
Its satire. He's joking. Its not real!
People say that, but then others also report he is very hostile to people who ask him if its a joke or satire. I dont know what to believe.
I sent gim a message on insta , not making fun on him but saying that it would help him a lot if he took some singing lessons. And he basically replied like "wtf are you talking, Im good , I got a big fan base so who the hell are you to say my singing is bad? I cannot believe someone is this extreme tone deaf and doesnt hear whats wrong with his voice 🙈.....
Idk if you mean tone deaf literally or not, because he's actually singing in tune
Which makes it even funnier. He’s really committed to the bit. It ain’t funny if you’re going to half ass it like that one dude that just sings shitty sounding versions of hit songs.
That guy is cute though. I guess I have bad crappy music taste because I would probably hit both, despite their crappy music!

Im with you 🪩
Invite me over!
Nom nom
Late 80's Mark E Smith would like a word.
This sounds like the type of weird shit you hear when you visit south east Asia.
Vocals like a toddler learning to speak? Check
Inability to stay in place like a toddler? Check
Rampant towel abuse like a toddler? Check
Oh yeah...its all coming together
Is he gonna jump out of that sliding door that is apparently just three stories up?
Hell yea 🔥
🐐
I was hoping he was going to jump out of that window
Nooot crappppppy
“Socks ‘n’ sandals and vertical blinnnndddss …”
I almost thought no one could defeat Xerogangg as the absolute worst…but franke is coming close…
Socks with sandals is cool
He walks like he's gotta take a shit. Sings like the vibrator up his ass just got turned on.
theres a bit of stewie in his voice if you listen closely
“You know I careeeee awaaaaaaauuuuwaaaa”
Tune
That Melodyne is working hard 😓
I’m a fan
babbyyyyy girllllllllll
Sounds like a cat that just ate peanut butter
The cat who said Nononono
bro i am not kidding the vocal treatment scratches my brain in a way i can’t get over. unironically, there is something very good about parts of this. reminds me of this one song by dj sabrina
big things happening in the scene
I was hoping he was gonna jump off that balcony and spare us...
Why do i like it though lol???
My breakfast from Yesterday Just came back up with this Song🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
This has to be satire right? Am I late here?
Those first two syllables are great
not real. hell nah
NOM NOM NOM
I dig the energy at least
Omg this is simply terrible
Fuck yeah
Yaaawwyuuummmmyeahhhh!
Can someone translate this??
That guy should install a towel hook somewhere so he doesn't have to carry it around everywhere.
I feel sorry for his neighbors
What's the "nyum nyum nyum" bit about. And why does he seem confused by his door. It's not like he's in a new place this time.
Exactly what I sound like when the sloppy joes are ready.
I really enjoyed this.
What language is that?
Like sweet velvety chocolate’
Very Gary Wilson this one
This is the one sub I can confidently get what I came for.
What the fucking fuck...
The hee hee threw me
Doubling up on that HEE HEE without doing a better take. Brave.
HEEEEUUUUGGGHHH HEEEEHEEEEUUUGGHHHHHH
Autotune overdose
NYAM YAYY HYWAAAMMM NWYAAAM HYEEEY
For some odd reason, I want to hear him cover Roxy Music.
This is unironically good. Very catchy. Certainly avant-garde.
this is genious and made me feel
He he
Man at first I hated this guy but he’s really grown on me. I’m all about this now
MYUM YEEEH YUM YUM YUM YEEEH
Hee Hee
This is what happens when you swallow a microphone and a hard drive
That sounds like someone messing with the goat
Uhhh 😬
Not going to lie. It's horrible but it also slaps. I'm not sure how that's possible but it kind of is.
Nobody has made love with a mic stand like this since Stevie Nicks
LOVE IS
Just like youth is wasted on the young, money is wasted on those that can count themselves among the wealthy. I'm not saying this dude is a billionaire or anything, but this strikes me as the kind of thing someone with a lot of disposable cash gets up to.
How else would someone with zero talent be able to spend the time and money to record at this quality?
Even if it costs .35 cents, its a colossal waste of resources and pisses me off.
Straight up hater!
[removed]
Yeah man, leave Franke alone. He’s just expressing his feelings.
Franke is the Yoko Ono to my John Lennon. Its so bad, but I love him!
He out his hand in his pocket during the video lol
When Lars Ulrich drinks alone
post some new content for once. this is like beating a dead horse
First time in this sub, huh?
The same “artists” are posted here all the time, it’s what makes this sub funny.
He posted this new song yesterday. How new do you need?
this guy has been posted in this sub probably 50 times now and this song was also already posted
You post something
Reposted all day yesterday oh my god. Can people please just check the sub once before they post. There is SO MANY REPOSTS!
I like the repost. Saves me time having to scan through reddit looking for the good ones.
You do have a point. I go to the main sub if I actually want mindless entertainment though the amount of times I see reposts lately on the main feed is insane
