Kiss Me Through The Phone

[R19]

Rap and R&B are my favorite genres and I have the top local radio station on wayyy too much at home (which is similar to the top rap station in every city thanks to our conglomerate owned mass media) because I don't have XM, my computers, or my iPod hooked up everywhere.

I finally paid attention to the lyrics of Soulja Boy's 'Kiss Me Through The Phone' a little more. WTF????

'Baby I kno that u like me
U my future wifey
Souljaboytellem
Yeah u can be my boonie
I can be ya clyde
U can be my wife
Text me, call me
I need u in my life
Yea all day
Everyday I need ya
And eveytime I see ya
My feelings gets deeper
I miss ya, I miss ya
I really wanna kiss ya
But I can't'

'Baby u kno that I miss u
I wanna get wit chu
Tonight but I can't
Now baby girl and that's the issue
Girl u kno I miss u
I just wanna kiss u
But I can't rite now so baby
Kiss me through the phone'

'Baby I've been thinkin
Lately so much about u
Everything about u
I like it, I love it
Kissing u in public
Thinking nothing of it
Roses by the dozen
Talkin on da phone
Baby u so sexy
Ya voice is so lovely
I love ya complexion
I miss ya, I miss ya
I really wanna kiss ya
But I can't'

'Baby u kno that I miss u
I wanna get wit chu
Tonight but I can't
Now baby girl and that's the issue
Girl u kno I miss u
I just wanna kiss u
But I can't rite now so baby
Kiss me through the phone'

And blah, blah, blah... Then I started thinking about all the AFC, f'd up lyrics in popular rap. It's like a propaganda machine to train and reinforce a completely AFC attitude. And everywhere there is all the convo on here about TV and movies, etc - the same sh1t. The media really sends such a fuvked up message.

Now on to Flo Rida's 'Spin Me Right Round'

'I’m spendin my money
I’m out of control
Somebody help me
She’s takin my bank roll.'

For starters, some of the most solid advice in regards to the music industry is this: If you can get the ladies to listen to it, you will sell records

Women love hearing AFC song lyrics. It makes them feel important, and who doesn't love feeling important? What is more, is it sort of gives them this inner fantasy of being serenaded by some famous guy. After all, if it is possible to have a famous musician whipped, it reinforces the "empowerment" women feel.

Could you see a woman just listening to a song with lyrics like:

"I tricked that ***** good, copped 7 digits
Smoked a stick of them goods, then parked a **** up in her

And I ain't chumpin up nigga, she ain't gettin no dinner
No wine and dine for this girl, cream sauce and a weiner"

HELL NO. You would be surprised to what a woman will listen to, but for an R&B song, the idea is to make something that the ladies can get comfortable to.

Soulja Boy fvcking sucks.

Music today in general is horrible.

I agree with Magickarl's sentiment though.

Soulja Boy and the other sh!tty pop act rappers today know that AFC lyrics appeal to a wider audience than writing decent songs for the real rap fans and thus they will make more money.

Still I can't help but miss the days when Snoop Dogg was putting out quality music as opposed to now as back then he'd sing about "never lovin these hoes" and "b!tches ain't sh!t but hoes and tricks".

Yeah now though his music just plain sucks but again the entire music industry is currently on the downward spiral.

Bingo - the entertainment industry is geared mostly towards women

How about songs where singers profess their undying love? Most are sung by guys: 'Plain White T's - Hey there Delilah'
'Secondhand Serenade - Fall For You'

And the worst song of all: 'James Blunt - You're Beautiful' - talk about putting girls on a pedastal

Can you imagine a song of male empowerment that rivals Beyonce's song Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)? There never will be one.

It's ok though, I really don't care if guys keep falling for this AFC BS - that's their problem


Though I do like the song sung by Cascada: Miracle. It's refreshing to hear a girl sing: 'I need a miracle, please let me be your girl!'

Yeah, not like this is new or some revelation, but really interesting. And I know rap in the last decade has changed more than in the last two. Where there is so much cotton candy pop sh1t. For a while and still is:

rap song = strippers + pole + money + rims + house + whip + jet + shoes + clothes + flowers for the chick?

One of my former managers commented how if you really pay attention to commercials or tv these days more than ever (I don't watch either) they are always slammin' the guys and making the women come off superior.

So maybe this thread can be the Hall of Sh1t for any song that comes out with ultra AFC lyrics... post it up!

 

[Apocalypse Now]

After learning about what makes an AFC/Nice Guy and what makes a PUA/Alpha, I started watching movies and TV shows with a closer eyes, and listening more closely to the music that plays on the radio.

And yes, I noticed a similar trend. Every time love is mentioned, it's total AFC bull****. No wonder most of us grew up thinking that women want you to buy them tons of gifts, pay for their meals, tell them your emotions, and take them on a magic carpet ride.

"I tricked that ***** good, copped 7 digits
Smoked a stick of them goods, then parked a **** up in her

And I ain't chumpin up nigga, she ain't gettin no dinner
No wine and dine for this girl, cream sauce and a weiner"

I'm impressed, bro. Those were same damn good lyrics.
