Wow, are Lee Hom and this David Liang guy really that horrible for attending prestigious universities, then turning around to pursue their dreams in music? Cut them some slack, at least they're pursuing a passion and not slaving away at things they don't care about. That's admirable enough in my opinion.

the true story here is not the music, but the failure of this man's education. Exhibit A: Harvard class of 2000 diploma. What ever happened to "Highbrow taste for the American elite 101"? It's all the fault of those damn multiculturalists and po-mo wankademic theorists that have eroded the edifice of liberal education. No wait--those bastards would have at least warned him about the dangers of self-Orientalization. Wang Lihong went to Williams College, one of the top liberal arts colleges in the US. So what gives? Both institutions of higher learning have in fact succumbed to the depredations of commodity capitalism. In other words, these bruthas are "Chinked-out".

Finally, another minimally talented Chinese American hoser to keep Wang Li Hong company. I just hope this guy can talk in -izzles, cause that would be awesome: "Going down to the little shop in Xu Jia Huizzle, to get me some of them tasty little xioa long bizzles...Holla!"

There's an undercurrent in this post that is just subtle enough that I can't tell what it is, but I hope it's sarcasm.
