Continuing with this thread's recent turn toward "mostly naked girls singing/rapping poorly about sex":

No tengo tiempo, pero soy la puta del momento

Genius.

ooooof

more than ever do not read the comments

Sign me up to take life advice from the guy with multiple face tattoos.

are those face tattoos or did he just get in a fight with an octopus and lose

damn that one really hits all the notes

the world did not need an alt-right el-p biter with HOG written on his face

Great, he's Canadian too.

anti abortion line, cool, is he stealth xtian?

dude was a wrestler

a family member texted me this video yesterday

Ugh I think I hate the comment section that seems like it’s all paid to comment users more but yeah it’s terrible music.

i was flipping thru channels and a song on the radio so toothless and insipid it made me angry. googled some lyrics, turns out it's harry styles. who i had avoided previously, and whose name is ironic because his music is bereft of any style at all

*and heard

Insipid, Lol

Fine Line is a cracking album

this single ensures i will never give it a chance, it's only fair

“Watermelon Sugar” is good!
It’s also this year’s hit but last year’s song.

consider me on team insipid tbh

I made it 25 seconds into that Surf Mesa thing. The original song was horrible, and this is a horrible update.

I don't find Harry Styles charming or appealing at all, really, but he can at least sing. And that song sounds like the musicians were awake while they recorded it, which is a change of pace from 90% of the current pop I stumble across. They should have gone full retro Philly soul with the arrangement, though, because the parts where there are horns and drums are the best parts by about a thousand miles.

that logic is kind of what allowed charlie puth to happen on ilm though

lol it sounds like the musicians were awake but just barely

it's like walmart's marketing department decided to expand into the music biz all mean tested and water(melon)ed down

i'm still laughing at the edgy white rapper with face tattoos and black contacts who goes by the name of "tom macdonald"

irl lol

there is a weird Xtian/Q Anon vibe to all the comments on Tom MacDonald's videos. All this stuff about how he doesn't curse like the evil industry rappers and how he might be "Suicided" for calling out corporate music and the Illuminati. Then there's this:

Why does a self made self respecting man like this reminding me of the outlaws of country like Waylon hank jr and sr Merle haggard and Johnny cash men who didn’t care what record labels thought and sung the songs they wrote and how they felt

Johnny Qash, HanQ Williams Jr., Merle HagQard, and Waylon JenninQs, cheQs out.

Wait, did nobody post the Ian Brown COVID song here yet?

outrageously lame, cloaked in pseudo-progressive set-dressing and middle-class true-american posturing but with all the musical bite and cleverness of a graham cracker

Is justin bieber thing to just repeat the title word as a chorus? I don’t really feel in the mood to relisten to his singles but iirc “baby”, “sorry”, “yummy” and now this one have a chorus where he just repeats 2 syllable words 10x times.

Not really hating on those singles - althought yummy and holy are abysmal - but just noticed that thing. Just like Lady Gaga’s thing is to stutter in her choruses.

feels like cheating maybe there's a separate thread for awful corp music

"digitization meets compartmentalization"

“...to the evils of the world”

That's one for the 'Sincerity' in Music thread.

forgot to post this here... like, surprise, 2021 is going to suck too

even worse was the clean radio edit that replaced "bitcheeeees" in the 1st verse w/ "it's liiiiiiit"

omg, lmao

i would enjoy hearing someone yelling "ayo shut the fuck up" at them like the dude in the chappelle sketch yelling at john mayer

no one is beating David Guetta's I Have A Dream MEGAMIX but that F2020 is very bad indeed

Might as well put this song in here, which to be fair isn't so much terrible as it is kinda lazy and not really bringing anything new to the table:
