DESCRIPTION:
At the 1997 MTV VMAs, Fiona Apple won the award for Best New Artist. After taking the stage, she opened her unprepared acceptance speech with a simple but powerful statement: “This world is bullshit.” Fearful about becoming a part of the music business’ shallow celebrity machine, she used this moment in the spotlight to tell her fans “go with yourself,” rather than modeling their lives after the people they see on TV.

Genius’ “The World Is Bullshit” apparel—a part of The 1997 Collection—positions Fiona Apple’s iconic words alongside other design details from classic 1997 albums like Wu-Tang Clan’s 'Wu-Tang Forever' and Daft Punk’s 'Homework.'
