Rebecca Black is asking for it now
All right, when this whole Rebecca Black "Friday" thing exploded, I vowed not to post about her because I didn't want to legitimize her attempt at a music career and I didn't want to be mean to a then-13-year-old.
But, she's back. With a new song called "My Moment" and the gloves have to come off.
First of all, this song is bad. Where "Friday" at least had a cheesy, it's so bad it's good, ironic kinda vibe, this song is horrible. It's not catchy. Her voice is amazingly flat. And the production is subpar.
Secondly, the lyrics have this sense of entitlement that I can't stand when it's sung by someone who hasn't earned our respect. She talks about how all the haters are going to be laughing now cuz she's making paper and she's now having her moment. Really??? Last time I checked, your 15 minutes were up. And only extended to 16 minutes because of Katy Perry.
And, finally, the video is so overblown with her own ego, it's sickening. The shots of her hard at work in the studio, learning a dance routine and walking a red carpet? Is she really that delusional to think we buy any of this garbage?
Rebecca Black, you need to fade into the Internet Meme Hall of Fame and just stop trying. Or, at least take some vocal lessons first.
