Now that Zack thing I can totally imagine he wrote, though idk abt the video

Zack's dad wrote the music and directed the video (there is a credits sequence at the end).

there is a decidedly dope (...) rap in that as well if you didn't watch it all the way through ("they shut down the factory/when they invented Zachary")

idk if a family feels they can blow 2k on a what is essentially a vanity music video instead of on, idk a SAT tutoring class or something,

lol fuck an sat tutoring class, get outta here with that shit!

i did horribly on my SATs and my life turned out okay.

also isn't she 13? she won't be taking the SAT for like 5 years

J0rdan S., Friday, 18 March 2011 18:49 (thirteen years ago) link

honestly, if you've been to a few bar mitzvahs, you'd realize that a family blowing 2k on a vanity music video for a 13 year old really isn't all that crazy

J0rdan S., Friday, 18 March 2011 18:51 (thirteen years ago) link

i didn't have a bat mitzvah. but i did have a college education, and no loans to pay back.

imo ilx should do one of its occasional whip-rounds and get something popping with ark

(my parents have a little money, but they would have never shelled out for something like this. even if it's not *that* expensive.)

i'm not justifying the existence of the video -- all of us made it thru teenage life just fine w/o our own music videos -- but parents can be much crazier

Doesn't it imply in one of those interviews that she's at least a casual showbiz kid enabling her stage parents, doing the talent show and singing group circuit? What's $2000 to them? And those folks already have no shame, so it's hard to embarrass them or make them feel bad. They're already stars in their own minds. My call is that RB is golden until she's old enough to drive (ironically) and get into real trouble.

228 * 16,882,848 = 3,849,289,344 seconds
3,849,289,344 / 60 = 64,154,822 hours
64,154,822 / 24 = 2,673,118 days

teledyldonix, Friday, 18 March 2011 19:27 (thirteen years ago) link

all of us made it thru teenage life just fine w/o our own music videos

Back in my day, if you wanted your own professionally produced music video, you'd get a posse together & head on down to your local amusement park, give the man thirty bucks or so & end up w/ something like this:

i have a video of me in 7th or 8th grade with short lesbian hair and an ugly cardigan, singing karaoke to "paradise city" in front of a green screen. it cost my parents the princely sum of $10.

higher quality of the ABC vid upthread
http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/rebecca-black-dont-think-im-worst-singer-13164800

do rather appreciate that she's humble about her singing capabilities. interview totally fails to address what she's got in the lyrical dept., tho

yeah (kelpolaris), Friday, 18 March 2011 20:11 (thirteen years ago) link

she didn't write the song

from upthread: http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2011-03-17/rebecca-black-friday-and-cyberbullying/

“I didn’t write it at all,” Black said, clearing up a major misconception. “The other song was about adult love–I haven’t experienced that yet. ‘Friday’ is about hanging out with friends, having fun. I felt like it was my personality in that song.”

unplugged version is extremely painful to watch & hear
