Ted Nugent on Neil Young: “Stoner Birdbrain Punk”
Ted Nugent slammed the music star Neil Young after releasing his music from Spotify to protest the world famous comedian Joe Rogan and said that Neil Young is a birdbrain stoner punk who delivers misinformation.
As some of these fans might agree, Ted Nugent is one of the most respected musicians in the rock community. He has contributed to the community with his many hits, including 17 solo studio albums and his works under the name The Dukes of Amboy. At press time, Ted Nugent toured and recorded great musicians such as the late Meatloaf, Brian Howeand Charlie Huhn.
On the other hand, Neil Young is a 76-year-old musician who has received several Junos and Grammy Awards. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee has tons of material in his discography. 41 studio albums, 8 live albums, 3 compilation albums, 4 soundtrack albums are some of these releases from the musician.
However, at the end of January 2022, Neil Young issued an ultimatum to Spotify to remove his music from its platform in protest Joe Rogan who gave false information about vaccines during his The Joe Rogan Experience Podcast. After this discussion, the music community was split in two. While some of them argued Neil Young because of his remarks, some of them supported Spotify.
Recently, during his The Night Nuge podcast, Ted Nugent exploded Neil Young. First of all, nugent said about Young that he’s not a huge fan of his but respects what he’s done. After renting YoungNugent said at the end of his sentence that Young is a complete punk.
“Well, Neil Young, God bless him,” nugent said. “I’m sure a lot of people appreciate Neil Young’s creativity, his talents and his creation of wonderful music for those who love this kind of music. I’m not a big fan. I know he has a lot of soul.
“But now that I’ve complimented him on all the positives, the guy is a complete punk.”
Ted Nugent Calls Neil Young “Stoner Birdbrain Punk”
Later then, Ted continued his bad remarks on Neil Young. Branding Neil Young a stoner bird-brained punk, nugent added that it was funny that Young gave Spotify an ultimatum. According to him, Neil made a pretty good decision. He also mentioned Joni Mitchell who next Neil Young on his decision. nugent struck down Mitchell also saying the two musicians talk nonsense.
“If you have done so many mind-altering chemicals throughout your life, then you can proudly say in an instant that you should switch to the free world, but then, in the next instant, be a witness of all the evidence to back up everything Joe Rogan said, what I said, truth, logic and common sense, the hard evidence to back it up, and then claim we’re guilty of disinformation when in fact the bird-brained punk is delivering disinformation,” he continued.
“So it’s a funny moment because he gave Spotify an ultimatum – whatever that great technology is – and he said, ‘If you don’t get Joe Rogan off Spotify, you gotta get my music off Spotify. It’s a nice decision, Neil. Thanks for making it so simple, because Neil Young on Spotify — adios, mofo.
“Now Joni Mitchell is doing the same and, again, God bless her. I can’t stand folk music, but I know there are a lot of people who like that kind of stuff and I salute them and thank them.
“And I appreciate any music that makes people happy and reinforces their American dream, or any other dream they might have. Is there another dream? I don’t think so. The Mexican dream is to fuck the camp and go to America.
“Young and Mitchell say things that are just plain stupid. And again, with all due respect… I’m sure Joni… I’ve seen Joni Mitchell do interviews; she’s a smart girl and she’s literally perfected her musical dreams.
“And on behalf of those people who love this kind of music, I can only salute them and celebrate the happiness that the music of Joni Mitchell and Neil Young has brought them.”
Back on February 4 this year, Ted Nugent had talked about his upcoming shows. Saying there will be no mask mandates, he added that these rules are bullshit.
“Tickets will go on sale tomorrow I think for this gonzo beach party rock and roll concert titled by Ted nugent in Panamá [Florida] April 29, nugent noted. “Write that down. It’s confirmed. There will be no mask mandates; there will be no bullshit.
“And the next night the headliner is my buddy Kid Rock. I’m not promising anything except we’ll beat your ass off, but on the 30th, when Kid Rock is headlining Panama City, the big beach party concert, he’s still playing [Nugent’s classic song] ‘Cat Scratch Fever’ every night, so maybe I’ll stick around and go up there and show him how to play it. It’s a possibility.
