This stupid song has been playing non-stop on the radio and now they give us a fitting music video. Allow me for a second to analyze some of the hypocritical statements from this song.
The songs mission statement is basically this: "They try to copy my swagger...I'm so 3008 and your so 2000 and late. Basically the song is saying that this is the future of music and people borrow from them...trying to steal their style. Well...
The song borrows the following:
1.) Song uses auto-tune which is not new...actually a fad from last year.
2.) Uses the lyric: "Harder, Faster, Stronger" which is so Kanye 2008 and Daft Punk 2001...yeah.
3.) Another Kanye shout out with the line "we got the beat, that 808" hmmm.
4.) Fergie says: "People in the place...if you want to get down...put your hands in the air" a request from 90's DJ's and rappers that to them will never get old.
The lesson here is if you write a song about being a pioneer or how advanced your sound/lyrics are..don't reference things that are no longer now...no less part of the future. Enjoy this dumb song through moving images:
