Jimmy Buffet - sellout extraordinare

My mom bought the bastard's new CD and it was playing in the car when we were going to airport this afternoon. My response to the horrible new music was, understandably, what the fuck is this? This abomination of a CD is obviously targeted towards the popularity of pop-country music; he "teams up" with the likes of Clint Black, Kenny Chesney, Alan Jackson, Toby Keith and Martina McBride. There is even a song which sounds amazingly like man of constant sorrow. I can't believe that the man who wrote margaritaville, and cheeseburgers in paradise has now become a sellout pop-country-small-business-suing tool. Fuck you, Jimmy Buffet.

EDIT-
If you're out of the loop on the suing thing, under threat of lawsuit he managed to get a local small business, who's owners were fans of the man, to change the name of their restaurant from Cheeseburgers in Paradise. They changed it to Beef 'n Buns in Paradise. What was the reason for this, you may ask? Why so he could open his own chain of restaurants named, Cheeseburgers In Paradise.
