"Entitled" is the new music video by Ramones drummer Richie Ramone. The second single and title track from his debut solo album, "Entitled" drips with punk rock attitude, groove and plenty of hooks. Richie explains, "Entitled talks about how hard it is to survive today in a world where the economy has staggered our opportunities. Everyone deserves a chance to become the person they dream about. I'm entitled to more, I'm entitled for sure, I'm not a puddle on the floor."
Richie Ramone penned the Ramones hit song "Somebody Put Something In My Drink" which is included on the album Ramones Mania, the first Ramones album to go gold, as well as "Smash You", "Humankind", "I'm Not Jesus", "I Know Better Now" and "(You) Can't Say Anything Nice". Richie's songs have been covered by new generations of bands worldwide, including Children Of Bodom and Behemoth.
The late Joey Ramone commented, "Richie's very talented and he's very diverse... He really strengthened the band a hundred percent because he sings backing tracks, he sings lead, and he sings with Dee Dee's stuff. In the past, it was always just me singing for the most part."
Richie Ramone joined The Ramones in 1983 and first appeared with the band on their Subterranean Jungle tour; he went on to perform in over 500 shows around the world with the legendary group.
