My Pleasure, Miss! contributors (sans Mayowa, miss u xoxo) hopped on a car and drove up to Chicago Tuesday evening to get our fix of some BNGRZ. At first we were all worried if we would get there in time with the rain and the confusion from all the construction… but we made it to the windy city safely. We chugged our PBRs real quick for a quick buzz and entered the Double Door.
Opening acts: Black Holes, Congorock, and Felix Cartal gradually raised the temperature in the Double Door by getting the crowd to start dancing, preparing for the big act. By the time MSTRKRFT came on, the dance floor was packed. MSTRKRFT had a great light show with a green laser light and TV screens placed behind them and on their DJ booth. While chugging down Crown Royal, MSTRKRFT delivered originals (VUVUVU, Work on You) and remixes (Wow [Kylie Minogue], D.A.N.C.E. [Justice]) and caused a dance dance revolution at the Double Door. We were all sweaty and gross, condensation on my camera lens, but that didn’t matter at all. We were having a good fucking amazing time and that was all that mattered.
Have you listened to the radio lately? Sometimes my ears cannot believe what they are hearing.
Example 1
Katy Perry “I Kissed A Girl”
“I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chapstick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don’t mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don’t mean I’m in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it“
WTF SRSLY!? I mean I’m all about gay/bisexual/bicurious rights but seriously! Did she honestly have to write a song about kissing a girl and liking it? But dammit, it’s so catchy! I found myself singing along after I heard the chorus for the first time. && She’s hot.
Example 2
Danity Kane “Damaged” Damaged, damaged
Damaged, damaged
I thought that I should let you know
That my heart is
Damaged, damaged
So damaged (so damaged)
And you can blame the one before
Ok, this song just plain sucks. Even MSTRKRFT can’t make it better. I don’t even want to talk about this song because it is the worst song EVARZZZ. Good job Puff Daddy, or P. Diddy, or Diddy or whatever his name is now.
Example 3
Lil’ Wayne “Lollipop” Shawty wanna li-li-li-lick me
Like a lollipop (Hahaha)
She She li-li-li-lick me
Like a lollipop (I say he so sweet
Make her wanna lick the rapper)
She She lick me
Like a lollipop (And She Do)
She lick me
Like a lollipop
(So I let her lick the wrapper)
Ok, as much as I want to bash this song, I love it (I know, I know) along with the 8 year old girls that don’t even understand what Lil’ Wayne means by “lick me like a lollipop.” It’s catchy and don’t even deny that.
—————————————————————
Alright, I could keep adding to this list, like Usher’s “Love In This Club” but he has a nice body so I won’t. tee heez :P Actually, the terrible lyrics make the song better catchy. They stick to your mind and the next time you hear the song somewhere, you find yourself singing along and shaking that booty of yours.
Here’s some REEEEEEMIXes of the songs I talked about.
Download, take your pants off, and sing along.
You love it.
Proof that Indiana sucks:
We went dancing at the Neon Cactus, aka the “hawtest” bar at Purdue University on Thursdays. Everybody was cutting a rug to radio rap/hip hop. We were immediately out of place because we weren’t wearing our douche bag polo shirts (collars up!) and/or slutty booby tops with leggings and heels but at least we had one thing in common with the rest of the crowd: intoxication. Bitches were twerking to emphasize their badonkadonkz. Brahs were on the prowl, looking for a trashy i mean, smokin’ hot babe to take home for the night.
To make our night a little better and to keep our buzz, we went up to the DJ and requested if he had any MSTRKRFT. DJ replies that he has the Justice “D.A.N.C.E. (MSTRKRFT remix).” We get excited and go back to the dance floor and eagerly wait for the number one hipster song evarzzz. Our song comes on. We go ape shit and get our dance on. However, rest of the dance floor immediately dies. They don’t want dance to this song because 1) They aren’t familiar with the song 2) It doesn’t have any rapping, no hip hop beats. People stare at us like we are some weird creatures from outer space. FOR DANCING TO JUSTICE (MSTRKRFT REMIX)!!!!!!!! WTF!!???
A familiar scene at the cactus. (thx google search!)
Welcome to Indiana. We think your tractor’s sexyyyy.
