I Am For The People!: Celebrities
Have you heard Jesse McCartney's new song "Leavin"? After listening to it, I think that it is safe to say that once again Hip Hop culture has pulled another one of Pops outcasts in from the storm. To hear this sweet little boy singing all of these played out Ebonics... actually quite work for me! I love this song! "...that thing you got behind you is amazing...make it rain...walk it out...tell your shorty...to the left..."
All these words are from Hip Hop culture, and even though only the stragglers are still saying these phrases, Jesse McCartney brings it back... straight to the POP culture, and then some!
Now if Jesse's 'beautiful soul' can swoon out a tune made up of mostly Hip Hip lyrics; Can Hip Hop get its dues now? Yes Hip Hop is here to stay; Yes, it is the innovation of all music; And Yes, Jesse McCartney actually said, "Tell your shorty..."
And BTW, has anyone ever seen his episode on 'Punked'? Definitely worth watching.
