Urb busts back against Pitchfork’s takedown of Idolator fave Steve Aoki’s Pillowface mix CD with a screed that manages to zing the entire city of Chicago in the process. Urb‘s argument, such as it is, hinges on the idea that if Internet faves Justice had released a similar mix CD, Pitchfork would have been all up in that shit, but because of Aoki’s rep as a trustafarian faux-celeb DJ, he gets an automatic bad rap. Perhaps. But then again, regardless of your feelings on its merit, Justice is also occasionally known to record and release music–that thing we’re still supposed to care about–whereas Aoki’s main contribution to the wider culture seems to be providing a reason for the continued existence of the Cobrasnake and Last Night’s Party.
