Dubstep is shite according to Seal

Just like the fathers we’ll never get approval from, dubstep producers today felt the cold backhand of rejection from soul’s pre-eminent cheese merchant Seal, with the Kiss From A Rose smoothie telling the UK’s Daily Star that he thinks the burgeoning genre is ‘shite’.

As reported by Data Transmission, the man most famous for nailin’ Heidi Klum professed his disdain for the wobbles and clattering beats of dubstep saying that the movement was lacking in musicality.

“Last time I was in England I listened to a lot of dubstep and thought it was crap,” Seal explained of the root of his dubstep dilemma. “I understood it but I wasn’t impressed by it at all. While I have to embrace the fact that I’m from a different demographic, honestly, I thought it was shite…if dubstep were musical I would be all over it and be a fan, but I didn’t relate to it at all and it not to me – I think I’m missing something.”

Between this and Timbaland’s claims that he’s the inspiration behind dubstep we’re starting to get the feeling that America’s not really ready for dubstep. Sorry Rusko.
