I'm going to be charitable and assume I am not getting something here. There has to be some degree of self-awareness behind this, but given the trajectory of pop music it's impossible to tell where the parody begins and ends.
 
The whole thing reminds me of M.I.A but with more drugs and budget?

I know M.I.A is her friend so maybe she was inspired by her but she went crazy overboard.
 
Not even joking this song is stuck in my head since I heard it yesterday.

Fuck.

lol.

She looks like she can give good head for sure though. Gotta respect that.
 
No, this song/video is awful. Just bad. If her intention is to release something that people have a negative visceral reaction to, then what is she achieving? She's already as rich and famous as someone with limited talent can be. Why risk alienating her fan base, who is way more dialed in to who she is and what she represents than anyone ever should be? There's no reason for her to "troll" anyone.

you think her fanbase doesn't LOVE this song?

lawl!

i gotta give her props for one thing... she's still dissing Li'l Kim... and not ducking opponents... like some other rappers out there...

drake knows he'll get his ass kicked.
 
Is it possible people were posting the song on facebook along with "omg look how bad this song is"?

I really hope so. The like/dislike bar gives me some hope.
 
is that "stop hammer time" sampled in the chorus?

no. but it is clearly an adaptation of it. and yea, that's on purpose.

I don't get it

Is it suppose to be ironic? nobody could doing this shit and taking it seriously, right?

it's a diss track. a hyperbolic and extreme video about the form, fashion and function of another female rap artist (Lil Kim) who's been ranting against Nikki for some time now. Consider this a mocking reply. No more and no less.
 
Between this, ASS ASS ASS ASS ASS and RACK CITY BITCH RACK RACK RACK CITY BITCH....

Mainstream Hip Hop is truly in a great place.

Well judging by the number of likes versus the number of dislikes on this video against that same ratio on any other of her music videos, I'd say no, the majority of them don't like it. Read the numbers, read the comments. Nothing is pointing to the fact that this is something her fans like.

So Lil Kim won then.

those aren't her fans posting dislikes, my friend. TRUST ME. They're people like us who happened upon the video one way or another. Expect this shit to be on repeat at clubs across the country. Again, 4 million hits in 24 hours should tell you everything you need to know. That shit doesn't come by happenstance.

So Lil Kim won then.

Lil Kim isn't even allowed to compete, for fear her artificial body will fall apart.

90s Lil Kim may have given it a good run, as she could have had BIG write her some crazy verses. But now? Kim is just sad. Attacking her is like attacking the handicapped kid in the Special class because he was talking shit.
 
What I'm talking about is that Kim made Nicki go all way to embarrass herself with this video. From what you're telling me, she trolled Nicki, and Nicki took the bait.

if "taking the bait" means getting 4 million video hits in a day, another hit song that will be in rotation across the nation all year long, and a shitton of subsequent royalties...


...then sure. Nikki took the bait and ran all the way to the bank, while Kim struggles to get even a radio interview at this point.

As for "embarrassing herself", her kookiness is part of her act. The video was perfectly in line with her weirdness/silliness/whatever. Kim just gave her a few million dollars while getting clowned in the process.

Uhhhh...

Was this in response to an actual song/video from Kim or just the general animosity between the two?

the animosity between the 2. but the statement that the song is a hit that will be on rotation at clubs across the nation is a simple fact. sad as that may be. worse songs have certainly been club hits.


read the opening post again.

Well she's right, I do feel like a stupid hoe for making it through 36 seconds of the video. I think I had a seizure.

it's too much for me. but her fans eat this shit up.

Pretty sure that's a sample. Not to be nit-picky, but you know.
it's possible. it sounds kinda funny, though. if sampled, I can't imagine it would have cost them much. I think samples of that kind go for around $2,000? something like that.

Nicki and lil kim are about the same age, and Kim doesnt look bad when her makeup is done right. Hell even with her new face it doesnt look bad without makeup. Its when she puts on clown makeup where she looks horrible.

Kim can always come back.
 
????

Actually, nevermind. There is nothing that I could possibly care about less than the club scene.
fair enough. maybe I misunderstood your question or mistyped. I was simply referencing the 4.8 millions views in 24 hours, as discussed in the OP. If you weren't, consider it simple miscommunication.

Alright, I know most of things were response videos to other songs and shit like that usually. And I don't doubt her fans might but it seriously gave me a headache.

Subscriber module means fans who were subscribed to her on youtube. That's 4 million views. The next highest source of views was facebook, which accounted for 800k views. She has 15 million people subscribed to her FB page and it was posted there. That and a second listing for facbook links (signifying shares) means the 800k was from hers. There is your 4.8 million views. Existing fans simply clicking her new thing to see it once. It's not a small artist going viral because people think it's the shit. It's an already-massively-popular artist releasing anything at all.

It may well be the next huge club hit. Clubs seem dedicated to pushing the worst thing out at the moment and club goers seem dedicated to not giving a shit. All I'm saying is that the record it set is reflective of her popularity and the nature of digital marketing, not an overwhelmingly positive response to the song itself.

Okay now that this hanging communication was cleared up, I'm actually out of here. I don't care to argue about "quality" or some such, I'm just pointing out these facts.
 
What is the world coming to?

I seriously don't know how this song isn't title "STUPID HOW". why the fuck does she say HOW?

My eyes and ears are crying
