Music When Blogging Goes Wrong: Meet Aaron Reid

Daddy hooked me up with these Kanye shutter shades!

These days blogs are like G-Shocks, everyone’s got one. Some are good, some are bad. Some are hilariously bad. We recently came across one that fell close to the latter: The Aaron Reid Experience. If the name sounds familiar, you must have caught his episode of MTV’s My Super Sweet Sixteen where he had the 40/40 club filled with complete strangers. If it doesn’t, allow us to introduce you.

Aaron Reid is the 19-year old son of famed record executive L.A. Reid (TLC, Usher, Outkast, Def Jam'big money). His blog is exactly what you would expect from a kid who grew up around rap stars, Bentley drops and iced out watch bezels. It chronicles his “lifestyle,” which includes photos of trips to various islands, celebrity encounters, plans for the future and, of course, videos of Aaron being Aaron.

Then there’s the other stuff: the bragging, the thoughtless thought posts, the odd advice columns. We don’t mean to pick on the young dude, and we have the utmost respect for his pops’ accomplishments, but at 19, A.R. should really know better. So before he continues along this path to Ridicule Road, we thought we’d lend a hand and impart some knowledge on the young blogger, and to bloggers everywhere, about what not to do with their personal blogs. Pay attention.
