“It’s Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday!” It is the obnoxious phrase that constantly stabs your brain every time you hear it and unfortunately, most unfortunately, does not leave your mind.
Don’t get me wrong, YouTube is great but it is also the source of the discovery and expansion of trash that our generation calls music. YouTube in a way is ruining the present generation’s musical tastes. When a video is uploaded to the site and it goes viral, everyone knows about it.
There is absolutely no way you don’t know “Friday” by Rebecca Black. Is this even considered music? Music is supposed to be influential, inspiring and has to transmit a powerful message, like Eminem’s music for instance.
“Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal” “Tomorrow is Saturday and Sunday comes afterwards” What kind of lyrics are these? If making music was just singing random sentences, anyone could become an artist. Apart from the horrible, meaningless lyrics, Black sings in a detestable monotone voice exploited with auto tune.
First of all, an artist should have great vocals, but Black has the worst vocals in history. And to cover up her voice with auto tune is the worst choice she could have made.
In addition to the terrible lyrics and vocals, it is the most abashing music video every uploaded on YouTube. All of the characters are 13 year old kids that simply do not know how to act. There is such an awkward atmosphere in the music video that the viewers howl from laughter.
When they are supposed to “dance”, the kids pulse their bodies and nervously shake their heads up and down and wave their arms like penguins trying to communicate with monkeys.
Consequently, we have Justin Bieber with his hit song “Baby”.
First of all, a 16 year old boy whom puberty abandoned and left him with a 10 year old voice should not be a singer. His voice is so high pitched it is commonly mistaken by a female’s voice. When he supposively “hits the high notes” he squeals like a dying squirrel.
