HiphopMr. Gallagher Snr. is busy being amusing again.

If only the monobrowed pub-rocker would put a tenth of the energy he puts into ranting and raving into actually writing some passable songs, his band might not sound the way they do – i.e. like the ‘Special school’ stage at a Who Tribute Band convention.

Noel apparently didn’t just grow up slavishly listening to The Beatles, though. According to his most recent outburst, he was actually a bit of a hip-hop fan.

The disregard for women, stuff like that, I find it quite sickening. And the clothes they wear, and it’s all about ‘me, me, me,’ and ‘I wanna fuck you up…’ Give it a rest you bunch of idiots."
