Just When You Thought It Was Safe

So Class took the time to listen to that awful mess from Anthony and raised me a Jacquees.

So I’m listening and I’m like…his voice isn’t as bad as Anthony’s.

::the verse starts::

NO! NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!

Candy Rain with a Rihanna reference…

Who is encouraging these people? Why are there multiple terrible, hideous, off-key, raggedy, renditions of this classic????

We’re not going to be great until this is stopped.

Look for the Class & Trash cover of Candy Rain on iTunes!!!  But again, here is the far superior original to cleanse your palette.

 

You Could Have Kept This, Anthony Lewis

Happy Monday!

Have y’all heard this??

 

What you’re not going to do is take a classic R&B jam from the 90’s by a talented group of unattractive mens and turn it into…this.

Like you just took the beat from I’m Different even though it’s less than two years old.

Like you added this horrendous rap.  Like the rapper version of Gia Gunn.

Like you added those HORRENDOUS vocals.  Those thin nasally notes.

But really, this song makes me irrationally angry.  It’s trading on the nostalgic value of two far superior songs with two barely mediocre talents.  The fact that it is getting any airplay really bothers me.  Anthony does not sound good.  Anthony does not add anything to the song.  He cribs the ad-libs and it sounds like it’s killing him to sing the song.

Billy Bang has less talent that J-Kwon and his rhymes are trash.  TRAAAAAASH-UH.

Ugh…BYE ASHY!

Let’s end with the far superior original.

Do you hear the smooth harmonies?  The pleasing production with the funky drum beat?  Did you do the dance instinctively??

Right.
