As a student of pop culture, I try to be familiar with the latest trends in music. However, I understand that I am out of the demographic for many of the new songs and artists. That doesn't stop me from analyzing lyrics from recent hits. Enjoy!
"Fancy" by Iggy Azalea and Charli XCX
First things first, I'm the realest.
How exactly do you quantify this? Is Izzy really realer than say Steelers WR Antonio Brown?
And I'm still in the Murda Bizness
How is business going? Is there a substantial murder business for Australian-born female rappers?
I'm so fancy
You already know
How exactly would we know this?
I'm in the fast lane
From L.A. to Tokyo
There's a fast lane from LA to Tokyo? Even the fast lane would take a really long time. Maybe she travels by map.
"All About That Bass" by Meghan Trainor
Yeah, my momma she told me don't worry about your size
She says, boys they like a little more booty to hold at night
Mom, really said that last line? That's quite the open relationship between a mother and daughter. Maybe it is a female thing. When my male sons are grown, I can't picture having this kind of discussion with them.
"Bang Bang" by Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj
Bang bang into the room (I know you want it)
Bang bang all over you (I’ll let you have it)
What the heck does bang bang all over you mean? Actually, I don't want to know.
She might’ve let you hold her hand in school, but I’mma show you how to graduate.
To graduate, make sure you study so you get passing grades on tests. In addition, do not violate the attendance policy. Done.
