The purpose of this video is to make the viewer uncomfortable and it certainly does just that- but not in the way that she was intending. The pants that look like an actual vagina come off as really weird and almost creepy. It makes the video hard to watch. She was taking the angle where she wanted to make men uncomfortable so it is more a feminine space but she even made women uncomfortable. When she first spreads her legs apart to show the full pants I was highly disturbed.
I do like the pink background and theme but the pants just ruin it. Then Janelle goes to sing the first line of her song in a baby voice- that is just creepy. She wanted to take a more creative approach with this record but all I see is someone who is desperately trying to be different.
Her first verse is honestly just odd and sets the tone for this song- one that you really don’t want to listen to it.
She sings,
“Pynk, like the inside of your… baby Pynk behind all of the doors… crazy Pynk, like the tongue that goes down… maybe Pynk, like the paradise found Pynk when you’re blushing inside… baby Pynk is the truth you can’t hide… maybe Pynk, like the folds of your brain… crazy Pynk as we all go insane”
What kind of lyric is “pynk, like the inside of your…. baby.” I really don’t understand why that lyric wasn’t changed. It really doesn’t make sense. I don’t know what she even means by “baby.” Like an actual baby or your p*ssy?
The movements that Janelle does in the video are very awkward. They show her staring directly at the camera with wide eyes, which is pretty concerning. Then it cuts to a girl’s head in between her vagina pants. Why?
Then some girl’s underwear says, “I grab back” which references the president of the United States. Trump was caught saying, “I’ll grab her by the pussy” which caused a huge uproar. But why did this video have to make a political statement? I personally think that’s cheesy.
Grimes is also featured on the track and she is not seen in the entire video, which raises questions because she is one of the best visual performers in the game right now. The director Emma Westenberg should have taken more tips from her.
The song is really slow paced and monotone, paired with lyrics that make no sense. This song is certainly a flop. I get the direction they were going with this song but it doesn’t play out like they might have envisioned.
Lil Twist knew what he was doing teaming up with Trippie Redd and Lil Wayne on a this one. He just dropped a new banger titled “Fires and Desires” and I’m in love. When I first heard this it caught me by surprise since Lil Twist hasn’t dropped any heat for a minute LOL. Listen to it below and see if you feeling it!
Lil Pump rolled out another official music video for “ESSKEETIT“. This song reached over 3,000,000 views already in only 12 hours so check it out below and stream the single on iTunes.
She says a scheduling conflict prevented Minaj from coming to the video shoot and Nicki Minaj almost never goes to the video shoots because of their busy schedule. Then apparently Cardi said that Nicki changed the verse to make her look bad. Then Nicki tried to apologize, no one backed her up and the press tried to sway the public into thinking that Nicki was being extremely shady. Nicki was just trying to do Cardi a favor and it blew up in her face. Everyone thought that Nicki lied to them.
Nicki then Tweeted out this addressing it publically:
How can you say someone changed their verse & forget to say Quavo TOLD me to remove my singing part (which I loved) & Atlantic told me to remove your name from my verse per your request? So how were those changes gonna happen if I didn’t “change” my verse? 😩🤣 #NickiDay#ChunLi
She is shown tearing up a little in the video, which makes us all feel bad for Nicki. Honestly, I don’t know why Cardi b wouldn’t give Nicki props. Nicki has been dominating the music scene for eight years and yes, so many other people would die to be on a track with Nicki Minaj.
I’m a bigger Nicki fan than a Cardi fan so these two better apologize to each other before it blows up. Could you imagine a world without a Cardi and Nicki collaboration?
