Back on the video tip.
Yeah. Not guilty pleasures because of any preconceived notion of what kind of music someone like me should like. No, mostly cause these songs epitomize the uber-slick image that record companies push on people with less constitution and greater impressionability. Plus the misogyny is pretty out of control on all of these, even the one sung by a chick. That being said, shit, I love these jams ... Can't embed cause their parent companies won't allow it ...
JiggaMan don't dig 99% of this guy's stuff but this is the JiggaJam. Like how i did that?
I remember waiting for this to come on the radio back in the day when I had a car with a tape player that didn't work. Circa 2001? I think that's about when this tune came out. Produced by Dre, so it's hard to argue. Video is so contrived though. Can we put a moratorium on videos that follow the "Rich people having party. Urban/poor/different people feel slighted. Urban/poor/different people invade party. Everyone has good time except for one stuckup person after realizing that urban/poor/different people have the BEST parties, The End."
Ha. Yeah, a great example of what "Real Southern Girls" look like. And not exploitative at all. Glad Pharrell got rid of that mustache though. Oh yeah, and in case you forgot, Mystikal is in jail for 6 years for makin' his hair stylist give him a BJ. A true lover of women. Still like that beat though.
