Transcript

K. This is the definitive list of the bad taste rich person art. Let's go. First, we have Damien Hirst, an artist whose entire point is to create objects that store value for wealthy people. There... There's no. That's so boring. It's the most boring, devoid of any meaning or point, but it can be worth a lot of money, and so that's its function. Wow. He put his dots on skateboards. That says something about something. And best up, we got Banksy, which is kinda like if someone listened to the audiobook of the spark notes of Marx. What if capitalism was no good? Brad Pitt owns one. Chris Martin owns one. Drake owns Banksy. Millionaires are lining up to buy your work. How class critical can it really be? Next up, we good Cause, which I guess is fine art if you also collect Rank Pop. These are two in Drake's worse, which I think go perfectly with his aesthetic of, opulent nothingness. Number one, we have Renoir. You're telling me this man is an impressionist better? With with Monet? Good at this. Look at this face. These paintings hang at the most famous museums in the whole world. Get these saccharine smear paintings out of here.
