50
Cent - “In Da Club”
I dislike this song and its music video
immensely. The song is bad enough on its own. I personally can’t stand rap
because it sounds like someone mumbling inappropriate nonsense to a repetitive
beat. To me, this is exactly what 50 Cent is doing. I can barely understand
what he is saying and the few words I do catch I wish I hadn’t. He also repeats
the same two lines over and over again which quickly gets irritating. The song
isn’t catchy either. I don’t like a lot of other songs like “Call Me Maybe” and
“Teenage Dreams” but they still get stuck in my head. “In Da Club” doesn’t even
manage that. The morals expressed in the song and video are also horrible. 50
Cent states, “I’m in to having sex, I’m not in to making love”. That’s a
terrible and heartless thing to say, and is not an honourable moral to live by.
The video is also 80% provocatively dancing women with very little clothing on.
That is giving girls a bad image and not something I particularly want to
watch. I don’t think 50 Cent should be promoting morals like this. Lastly, I
find the music video ridiculous. It is based around 50 Cent being a specially
designed ‘artist’ created by a team of scientists. This idea could have been
interesting (even though I don’t know what the scientists were thinking) if the
video had consisted of more than him working out and partying with half-naked
girls. There are maybe four shots actually involving the scientists. The
partying and working out doesn’t even make sense because if he is supposed to be a
manufactured singer, then why does he need to be incredibly muscular or good at
sitting down drinking alcohol? I suspect this is because he wanted lots of
shots of himself without a shirt on and an image of being a ‘fun’ guy. The
irritating music, disgusting morals and annoying video all combine to make me loathe
this song.
