Shawnna - Gettin' Some is probably the worst song ever made by mankind. No really, I am not exaggerating at all. If you dont believe me click the play button or the link. Not only that it encapsulates perfectly why I hate hip hop/rap.
Sigh. I wish MTV and all its other forms would just poof. Its like the radio and TV all have this obsession with this shitty rap that really doesn't say anything. It just looks nice. Bunch of guys walking around in expensive clothes and jewelry singing about sex and weed. While tons of women with basically no clothes on dance around them.
Maybe one day there will be a great awakening and everyone else will realize this. I will turn on MTV and see people like Public Enemy in the top spot; while not my favorite group at least they have something to say!
What inspired this post is I have been working on creating a "good" hip hop station on pandora. One of the songs that came up was "Mos Def - Mathematics". It just blew me away over how different that song is compared to ANYTHING you hear on the radio or MTV. It was actually good!! If I were to hear more songs like that I may have to stop hating hip hop.
On a side note if this post attracts some people who know of these socially aware rappers please please email me or comment with the ones you know. I am very new to all this and don't know many right now. Also if you are someone into the MTV style rap, eh don't be mad at me because your music is meaningless. I suggest unplugging for awhile and maybe reading a book? or how about turn on the news for five minutes that would be a good start.
I should note that 50 Cent - Candy Shop is also a contender for the worst song ever.
