I had heard a little about this dude and saw him on the TV show Ridiculousness. After seeing a story on TMZ about Riff Raff getting hit with beer cans a few days ago, I randomly Wiki'd him to see what he was all about. In one of the most mind-blowing experiences of my life, I realized he was Horst Simco. I had played basketball against him in high school for many years, then was a teammate of his in 2002 at Hibbing Community College, before he was kicked off the team.
He was awkward, didn't do drugs or smoke weed, and couldn't get a girl if his life depended on it. He basically just hung around the imported black athletes, who made fun of him the whole time.
This kid was not exactly "bright."
My question is this, does he really believe this persona he created or is he in on the joke? I really can't tell.
Also, Do you think anybody would be interested in some of his background information? I've done a lot of research and there is a lot missing. I have not seen one mention of the high school in Minnesota that he attended for at least 3 years. The one where it was all white kids and there was maybe 50 people in his class.
Just reading the wikipedia page.
Moving to Duluth WILL get you out of the heat...but at what cost?
It's hard to imagine he's in on the joke considering he uses the word "unhappyable" in this interview. Also, he can't add.

There isn't an hour North of Duluth. :lulz: Maybe 30 seconds, tops.

Holy crap, I can't tell whether he's an idiot or a genius!

This is exactly what I can't stop trying to figure out. Definitely leaning towards "idiot" but I just don't know. We would be talking about a whole new species of idiot here.

Two things:
1. He's overdoing it.
2. He should take his retainer out before giving interviews.
My verdict is in...He's a patsy. It's like the Cherry Sisters. Someone is making a buck off of him looking like a fucking idiot as a novelty act.
Definitely overdoing it. He is in a group with Simon Rex and Andy Milonakis called Three Loco, which is obviously a joke. But yet he's just begging for credibility for his solo act.
One other thing, no freaking way he could have went pro. Not a chance in hell, all bullshit.

I think I agree. And they are rolling in the dough. If you put your ear to the internet you can hear him about to blow up. Mainstream, middle America after this next CD comes out. Millions of 16 year old white kids saying "middle of the mall shit" within 2 months. Calling it now.

That's the part that makes me wonder if he's a genius. He described eating a whole plate of lobster in
exactly the same terms he used to describe going pro. And the video clip of him playing basketball was terrible.

YES. My impression is that this guy is straight-up trolling.
He's got a jailhouse-style tattoo of TEXAS.
And yeah, he can't talk with a grill in his mouth. Sounds like one of those Richard Pryor old geezer characters.
Troll. :lulz:
I think the puppet masters are trolling for dollars. Poor Horst doesn't have much of a clue and buys into his Halloween costume persona. Final answer.
OTOH, Texas, especially Houston, IS a thing (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qevc4TmlgDg) in rap/hiphop, for the simple reason that it's SO FUCKING HORRIBLE.

Actually, I have no fucking clue and it's driving me insane. All I know is that 10 years ago he was just a goofy kid that didn't have many friends and nobody could understand him because of his accent/inability to formulate a coherent sentence.

I'm betting on "dumb with good handlers", ie, the other members of his group.

I don't think so, for the same reason I don't think me being able to make a living selling my beads is good luck.

Yeah, but they aren't usually able to create a completely convincing over-the-top alter ego that fucks with people's heads. People like that are discovered, not made -- it stretches the bounds of believability to think that some "handlers" just latched onto a random dumb guy and molded him into a character who can muse rhapsodically about being a baller and eating a whole plate of lobster by himself in the same terms within five minutes.

As I say, I could be wrong.
I hope he's that dumb, though, because the way he appears to be makes me want humanity to survive another generation.

this kid is just a hater cuz riff crossed up his whole team in the 9th grade an then proceeded to having his way wither your mom and sister in the locker room after the game
Wait, whose mom and sister?

More than likely. The other possibility is that he's the kind of guy that can't tolerate the idea of being liked. Self-sabotager.
