A Rapper's Attempt at Respect By Garrett R

***For the sake of fluid argument, I am generalizing all "artists" of this nature as rappers***

Now I will be the first to admit that not every rap/hip-hip or in this case "Electro House" song is total crap. The lyrics are typically vulgar, provocative, and borderline racist...but never have I ever seen a rapper try to justify his words as respectful.

Below I have a very current and very popular (based on how often it is played) song's lyrics...let's analyze a particular line...

"I’m trying find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful"

Wait...really? By saying that you need to TRY AND FIND the words to not be disrespectful immediately points out that your first reaction WAS in fact very DISRESPECTFUL.
And then you (the artist) goes on to say that the words they found were respectful were these:

Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, damn girl
Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, damn girl

Now...just a thought, I'm not sure of the general consensus with women...is "sexy bitch" something that you strive for to feel respected? Just a thought.

PS- Even if this song did not have such twisted, beat around the bush lyrics, it would still blow some giant beans.

David Guetta feat Akon - Sexy Bitch Lyrics

Yes i can see her
Cause every girl here wanna be her…
Ohh she’s a diva
They feel the same and i wanna meet her
They say she low down, its just a roomer and i don’t believe them
they say she needs to slow down
the baddest thing around town
She is nothing like a girl you've ever seen before, nothing you can compare to your neighborhood hoe
I’m trying find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful
The way that booty movin i just cant take no more
Have to stop what I’m doing so I can pull her close
I’m trying to find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful
(Damn Girl)
Chorus
Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, damn girl
Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, damn girl
Yes i can see her
Cause every girl here wanna be her…
Ohh she’s a diva
They feel the same and i wanna meet her
They say she low down, its just a roomer and i don’t believe them
they say she needs to slow down
the baddest thing around town
She is nothing like a girl you’ve ever seen before nothing you can compare to your neighbourhood whore
I’m trying to find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful
The way that booty movin’ I cant take no more
Have to stop what I’m doing so I can pull her close
I’m trying to find the words to describe this girl without being disrespectful
(Damn Girl)
Chorus
Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, damn girl
Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, damn girl
Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, damn girl
Damn You’s a sexy bitch, a sexy bitch
Damn you’s a sexy bitch, A SEXY BITCH
