Ummm..Exactly! Those are some MuthaF*ckin' Problems...
Okay this is a tough one. I'm just going to come right out and say it.
This song drives me wild every time I hear or see it. Even though the majority of these bad a** videos I'm watching are the only "made for tv" versions (non-explicit) I'm still feeling the urge to dance.Yeah, it's got that appeal. Maybe that's what "mainstream" is all about. Does it make you want to dance? Can you relate? Do you want to hear it again? How about 10x in a row??? Why not! It's THAT good.
I'll probably receive alot of heat for making such a big deal about this track. I mean, we hear this kind of raunchy, crass, point-blank music all the time. TRUE. Maybe I'm coming out of a music coma from years of getting sick of the same ol' over-produced, repetitiously numb mess. Idk. But I gotta stay true to what I feel and not deny it.
Lately I've seen responses regarding the degradation of women through Rap Artists' lyrics. And...I must agree, to some point it feels that way. But I do feel that the words that are seen in that light are given a new meaning when used in a different context. To be called a "bitch" in the heat of anger OR in unwarranted cases which hostility is not provoked, will give a woman or young woman the sense of disrespect. Straight up. But then if you add, that a woman is a "bad bitch" or "bad ass bitch" she may feel extremely empowered and sexy. There's a fine line there.
But to continue with the real message behind the song. For me it's just a bunch of guys telling the world what they love about a woman and in this case, a bad bitch, i.e. the women dancing in the video. What they love to do on a turn't up sexualized meter. What's new?!? It can either be a turn on or turn off.
I Love collabs just for the fact it's allowing the listener to get a taste of different Artists basically come-together and showcase their ability to uniform their own individual styles. It's Awesome. This is A$AP Rocky's second single from his LP, Long. Live. ASAP set to be released January 15, 2013. It features 3 other "in-demand" Rap Artists such as, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and 2 Chainz blazing on the hooks. They all bring their take on their male- machismo they proudly banter and beam, bringing their own styles to one song delivering fire.
The video aint too shabby either in it's entirety, well for my taste. I love the ohhhh.. oooo... and the claps. At the end when the spotlight turns off on each of them to the click- I'm feelin that.
Whatever the reason may be, or however you may view it, every time I hear it I gotta get up! lol.
