Wesley Willis...


Whatever happened to that guy? I've heard him twice in the last week on KXLU. Thank goodness someone still remembers him there. He is destined for history. I remember hearing his stuff in early 90's being ridiculed, but now it sounds classic. Last week I heard "Viper Room", and this morning I heard "Whooped Spidermans' Ass". :lol:


I must find his CD.

Wellll, he had something going on for a while, I believe he died of leukemia. It was in August. I'll always regret never seeing him play. A friend of mine said she waited one night in a hot, sweaty club for him to go onstage...three hours later he went up and played one thirty second song and the show was over!

Dang! That's pure genius! I'm listening to a lot of his stuff, and it's so funny, because my mom got me a Casio keyboard in 8th grade Christmas for getting B's, and above(believe me a difficult task for me :D) on report card, and it contained similar programmed beats that he used...

p.s. can anyone post any pics of him? I've never seen him.
