THE FALL OF JENNIFER LOPEZ

 
 J Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Jennifer Lopez  has been busy lately. She's been in the studio recording material that will hopefully please both long time fans and newcomers. She dropped a new album and is heavily promoting it.  The specific song that I want to delve into is none other than Booty.


    Booty takes you on a serious journey. J Lo wants you to understand what it's like to be a booty. The lyrics discuss a girl with a mind blowing butt. Subtle sexual themes are used to reference the female. J Lo describes an average club night were  a girl and guy get together and dance the night away. As to where the night leads is to your discretion. Lo enlists two different artists for the song that will surely make you question life.


    Pitbull is on the ignored version of the song. He seriously is captivated by the booty. He goes as far as to call it an Oscar award winning movie star. I cant imagine what he was thinking when he made his lyrics,but I can  assure you that booty was involved.

   Notable lyrics: I wanna take that big 'ol booty shopping at the mall
I wanna pick it up and put that booty in my car
Baby your booty is a movie star
Oscar award winner of them all


   Iggy Azalea is the other artist that J Lo pairs up with. Iggy is on the remixed version of Booty. The video for this version was recently released. Im not even going to bother mentioning what's going on in the video , but I will say that things get weird. Iggy provides self confident lyrics that boost her ego to another dimension. She creates a rally cry for all women to dance to the music. From what I heard Iggy is willing to let people taste the booty....................WTF?


   Notable lyrics: "A girl with the cheeks, put your hands in the air
Then pop, then pop, let them know
See everybody want to get a taste
You know that we got enough to share
But fat big girls with a big
Too faint, did they ever play fair?"



   Overall the song Booty is ridiculous. Jennifer Lopez is scraping the bottom of the barrel now. Her past work is phenomenal compared to this disgrace. The song itself is a club song. I enjoy club songs , but this is just plain terrible. The features alone guaranteed that the song was going to be bad.


Rating: 3.5 out 10

MOTIVATION BY WIZ KHALIFA


Wiz Khalifa has had an interesting career. He started off as a rapper that rapped about smoking drugs and doing "things" with girls. Today he still raps about the same things except now he raps for movies. I never would have thought that Wiz would be rapping for feature length films. There are two songs in particular that I'm talking about.



1. We Own It by Wiz Khalifa and 2 Chainz

We Own It was used in the movie Fast 6. It references a lot of the themes that live within the Fast and Furious franchise. An example of this would be the ride or die mentality. Wiz only hangs out with cool people that drive cool cars on cool roads. He talks about family and how family works together no matter what.  2 chainz is present , but at the same time really isin't. He doesn't make sense. The song itself is a bit corny. You really cant take it seriously. Its a good pump up jam to workout to, but that's pretty much it. I wouldn't recommend playing it in the club or in Da club.

Notable lyrics: " And the same ones that I ride with, be the same ones that I die with"





2. Shell Shocked by Wiz Khalifa , Juicy J, Ty Dolla $ign

Shell Shocked is a shocker to say the least (pun was intended). The song was made for the movie Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Like We Own It it references the theme of comradery. The turtles are brothers that fight crime together. The message is pretty clear. Wiz gives a quick verse about the turtles. He talks about how they fight for the people. The Ninja Turtles don't need the glory they just want to protect people. Juicy J and Ty Dolla $ign  are the biggest anomaly on this song. They bring up things like cars, Rolex's and passing off girls. To say that I was confused is an understatement.

Notable lyrics: " You know I got your back, just like a turtle shell". ( This line was said by Juicy J............................................)


Overall both of these songs are decent workout songs or just something to get pumped up with. Neither possess great lyrics. As much as I'm not a fan of Wiz I will admit that he gets the message of the movies right. He clearly has the stand out verses in both songs. Personally I like We Own It the best. Its not as corny as Shell Shocked, but still isin't worthy of my ears.  If your trying to get that last set in and don't know how you're going to do it just play one of these songs. You might laugh ,but hey at least you smiled.





P.S.


Wiz is capable of rapping well ,but he chooses not to.

TWO SONGS THAT MAY MAKE YOUR EARS BLEED






YMCMB, the self  proclaimed music empire that " runs" music is in full effect right now. Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj are releasing material for their upcoming albums. Both have released a few singles. This blog is about two singles in particular. The two singles that I'm referring to are songs that may make you rethink being a fan of either one of these two.




1. Grindin by Lil Wayne ft. Drake

Grindin A.K.A. Grinding is Wayne's second single off of his unrealeased album, the Carter V. Drake is enlisted to help Weezy fans believe that he's a good rapper once again. The message that Wayne is trying to convey is ever apparent in the song. Lil Wayne is about his grind. There is no room for non grindin. Drake adds on to the message by talking about his haters. The haters clearly get no love from Drake. The beat sets the mood for a brooding and bass booming symphony.  Grindin is one of Wayne's worst songs to date.

Notable Lyrics: " Grindin, grindin, grindin, grindin, grindin, grindin, grindin, grindin"




2. Anaconda by Nicki Minaj

Nicki came out with a bang with this single. Promotion for the song was heavy. The artwork alone made people talk about the song. Nicki knows how to create buzz for her music. Unfortunately, the song isin't worth the hype. The whole song is about guys that Nicki has had relations with. If your with your parents when this song comes on things may get awkward. The song itself is a club song , but even then it's all over the place. Nicki has done much better.

Notable lyrics: " Oh my gosh, look at her butt, Oh my gosh, look at her butt, Oh my gosh, look at her butt.


If I had to choose between the two I would choose Grindin. Anaconda is a bit obnoxious in terms of sound. Both aren't good songs. You can tell that minimal effort was put into the creating them. Hopefully the artists albums have better songs.




P.S.

Believe me is better than Grindin
