in real world terms, “a gob” is someone who displays the same cl-ssless showmanship, such as the lead singer of a pub covers band who thinks he’s the greatest thing since barry white but can’t sing to save himself, or a standup commedian who obviously thinks his material is great, when in reality it stinks. badly.
me: this is the worst band i’ve ever seen.
kate: yeah, the lead singer’s a freakin’ gob.

in the early years of u.k. punk to show appreciation for a band the audience would spit on them. this is called gobbing. i think it also carried over into hip-hop culture over seas but ice-t didn’t like getting spit on very much so they were forced to kill the trend.
“hey, stop gobbing on me! i’m not british, you bl–dy -ssholes! i’m a folk artist!”
