A few days ago, verse one of this garbage was included in an FR thread. That thread was pulled pretty quickly because the lyrics are just that vile. If you want to find out what young girls may be singing about these days, please look up the lyrics. This crap may never actually get played on any radio station because most of the words will have to be bleeped out. Truly sickening. Billboard celebrates.

Geez, and here I am, old enough to remember when “Relax” by Frankie Goes to Hollywood was considered “obscene” by the BBC.

Cardi-B’s song and video make “Relax” look quaint and only vaguely/harmlessly naughty by comparison.

“And the music video attracted more than 120 million YouTube views...”

Most of those views were probably preadolescent boys doing what preadolescent boys do at that age. “WAP” passes for what preadolescent boys used to do with Dad’s Playboy magazine while hiding under the bed cover with a flashlight.

My teacher back at GA Southern had a subscription to Billboard. I never liked it, because it was all about what was popular, not anything truly musical or artistic.

I DJ'd at the radio station (WVGS - The Voice Of GA Southern), and they had a subscription to Melody Maker, out of the U.K. MUCH more interesting.

And nobody even knows who Casey Kasem was anymore.

This one will probably get yanked as well.

Better to bury our heads in the sand and pretend it doesn't exist while exclaiming, "What's a Cardi B?"

I happened to have read that thread, and then the lyrics.

Xaviera Hollander was classy by comparison.

How much of my tax money goes to people who spend it on this stuff?

Sounds like the “artistic” version of Kamala Harris making her way up the ladder.

Nothing in history is new but in the past song writers at least made an attempt at cleverness. This song is just the modern overhyped version of “Da Doo Run Run” by the Crystals from 1956. “The more things change...”

Wasn’t Cardi B that hard-hitting investigative reporter that Joe Biden chose to do his first interview after popping his head out of the basement last week?

I’ve seen the explicit version of the “WAP” video.

It’s not a “celebration of female sexuality”, it’s more of a modern day minstrel-show.

This song, sharing the same title as the Cardi B opus only with the letters rearranged, was so hated by liberals and welfare state socialists that that bands like the Glenn Miller Orchestra couldn't record it due to opposition from the musicians' union.

In what sense is this “music”?

It is vile dis-civilization.

"WAP" is being heralded as an empowering anthem and visual for Black women who unabashedly take the reins of their own narrative,

Or its simply promoting them to be low IQ whores who will be used for their sex.

I continue to be amazed how far some in society can go claiming black is white, down is up, wet is dry, evil is good - and get away with it.

It should be left up for all to see. It was brutal for Time Warner when Charleton Heston attended a stockholders meeting and simply read the lyrics to “Cop Killer” our loud to a packed room, and let them know they were selling that as a product.

Leave it up and don’t listen to the babies who want it hidden and removed from the site.

Like either of these girls would use “tuition” (from the song).

Know their lyrics? I don’t even know who they are!
