Oh my frikin god.

I know its slightly old news but she totally sold out.

She looks kinda hot.

First thing I thought when I first saw this clip - well, I felt pretty weirded out - how will little girls and boys take in this clip? I mean, even me a 19 year old felt sexually inadequete! Like, I needed to slut around to be sexy :/ Not really. Yeah I'm exaggerating a tad.

I don't particularly have a formed opinion on this song conceptually, but musically, turn it off :(

Thoughts?

There's something about the song I like, but it's like there's not enough "wow" factor to stop me from getting bored about halfway through the song. It just seems a bit monotonous to me...

Opinion-wise, I'm kinda disappointed that Nelly sold into the "let's make songs about wanting to hook up in clubs" like bazillions of other artists are currently doing. I know she copped a lot for her voice in her previous songs, but it's still major :( One of my favourite parts in the song (the part I actually look forward to) is the end where she's sort of humming a melody in that kinda-not-really-yodel kind of voice, simply because it sounds so much more interesting than the rest of the song! (except for the "I just want you on my team"/"so does everybody else"/"s***" line, that's really good :D)

I liked that line too.

And the way she says "don't get mad, don't be mean"

and thats it.

:(

really? I had no idea he was in it, lol...

In other news, I haven't seen the likes of Justin Timberlake/Ciara/Missy Elliot/Britney Spears/Delta/Usher/a whole bunch of other successful commercial artists in like, ages. Aside from Pink and Christina (who have recently released songs), I'm beginning to wonder if a whole bunch of them like, died or something :S

^ And even Jennifer Lopez! What's with that new song? "zz zz zz zz zz?"

i like the song, kinda sick of it now but i was jammin it a few months ago, i like her album...maybe thats because i love timbaland i don't know....but timbs a TANK now, he used to be a chubby little baby :eek:.

she looks hotter in the 'maneater' video clip, and 'do it' sounds JUST like a madonna song. She's a talented pop artist.

thats ghey i had 'promiscuous girl wherever you are im all alone and its you who i want' as my msn nick a while ago and everyone was like 'lolz chris wtf r u on about u phag' and now heaps of ppl have it in their nicks :eek:

i actually don't mind justin timberlake, he just finished recording a song with T.I it will be on his new album :eek: and the snippet for his new single 'sexyback' doesnt sound too bad :eek:

So? at least she isn't pretending that she is not out for sucess by forming a pastiche (yeah I finished yr 12) example of 70's rock and pretending that not washing is cool.

As for the clip, Nelly isn't that attractive but damn a few sit ups and a bath and damn... I know I'd rather watch her then a bunch of fat girls dance around. Is that what you would prefer. Maybe instead of people bitching they should step and try and be better.

The track itself is fun. I kind of like it.

zen zen zen zen zen, is a calling which has a lil hip hop history permeating throughout it, that's why when people are like 'lolz i love hip hop but LL Cool J is wierd saying 'zzzzz' wat kinda shit is that lolz' and i laugh at them and go lolz im better than you.

'zen x 1000000000' is actually a, well kinda like chant used by afrikka bambatta in his classic 'planet rock' and the beat is sampled from afrikka bambatta - looking for the perfect beat, so the song is kinda paying homage to that album :eek:

great song. way better than that shitty 'i'm like a bird' shit, that's for sure.

maneater is OK except the chorus is kinda lame.

haha yeh i kinda cringe when the maneater chorus comes on, but its grown on me

but i really love the first verse of that song when she goes 'everybody look at me, me i walk in the club u start screa-ming' she looks fucking sexy in that video clip though.

the album is pretty good suprisingly.


BUT HAS ANYONE HEARD HER COVER OF 'CRAZY' BY GNARLES BARKELY...my GOD that is HORRIBLE!
