GIRLICIOUS: Has Music Sunk to a New Low? So Robin Antin, the creator of the Pussycat Dolls has created a new girl group called "Girlicious" (think the Pussycat Dolls, younger, skankier and less talented sisters). I must confess that yes I did watch their reality TV show as they were recruiting the members for this group and yes I did find the show to be mildly amusing and entertaining to watch Although I did strongly disagree with Robin's decision to add a 4th member to this group when all throughout the show she said it was only going to be a 3-girl group
Anywhoo, I just checked out 2 of their music videos on Youtube and my reaction to both were: So this is what the Bratz Dolls look like all grown up. Just who is their target audience supposed to be? Pre-teens? (I hope not) Teens/young women? Horny old men? Here's their videos: Like Me Stupid Sh** Your thoughts on them?

You're spot on with that. They don't dance very well and I can't comment about the songs because I muted the speakers while I watched the videos. I knew better. That said, yeah, preteens will probably be the audience because they're the only ones stupid enough to buy this kind of stuff. Guys might watch the videos but they won't buy a record. It's basically all a big ad. | |

I can assure you it has, no need to watch the videos/tv show to prove that | |

That is some of the worst pop music I have ever heard in my entire life. The beats are like any other horridly insipid pop song you've ever heard, except it's all much worse here. The lyrics are dumbed down to the point where you'd have to render yourself retarded by bashing your skull in with a hammer to find any value in them.
They sound terrible, their dancing is pointless, they have no chemistry together whatsoever, and the songs are the epitome of stupidity. Jesus, it has really gotten to the point where people are pushing songs strongly advocating conformity and brainless innanity. These songs kind of capture just how low the record industry has sunk, and why there is no hope for it. Thank God artists like Reznor have moved away from this sinking Titanic. Fuck this group.

The Spice Girls were never this skanky. That second video is one big lesson in how to strip. | |

Their music sucks, but that's ok. | |

Every thread has a conspiracy theorist. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Co-sign. This group is just wrong on so many levels They really should change their name to Skankilicious or Hookerlicious. MJ L.O.V.E: https://www.facebook.com/...689&type=2 / YOUTUBE: http://www.youtube.com/us...nderSilent | |

Why didn't Prince think of the name Hookerlicious? Well if he sees this video he may just get the inspiration to record a song titled "Hookerlicious" These group o' skanks make Vanity 6 look like nuns, at least they had more class to them Speaking of Vanity 6...from Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanity_6 In 1981, Prince, himself a rising musical star, suggested that his three female friends Susan Moonsie, his wardrobe mistress, Boston native Brenda Bennett, and his personal assistant, Jamie Shoop form a girl group that would be called "The Hookers." Prince's vision was that the three women would perform in lingerie and sing sensual songs with lyrics about sex and fantasy...
I would say that Vanity 6 achieved what Jailbaitlicious can only hope to achieve... MJ L.O.V.E: https://www.facebook.com/...689&type=2 / YOUTUBE: http://www.youtube.com/us...nderSilent | |

I'm sure these girls parents must be proud.
I'm glad Vanity 6 was mentioned because I initially wondered if I were being fair in being critical of these girls, when I grew up liking Vanity 6 and The MaryJane Girls. My younger sister always accuse me of being a "hater" of anything from this generation.....and I will admit a little bias, however everything I just saw and heard on those 'Girlicious' videos just seemed wrong to me. I'm sorry but Skanky and trashy are the only words that seem to come to mind. I am convinced Beyonce's career would not be where it is, if she had dark skin. | |

Sure Vanity 6 was skanky, too, but it was sort of an alternative to what was going on, it wasn't the norm.
Nowadays our biggest pop stars are basically just strippers. My Legacy

Like Me has a nice beat, but yeah I agree they are very skanky looking, especially the second video. I watched a bit of the show cause I liked them for each individual talent and the drama entertained me, but I knew their music would be such a flop anyways. | |

I'm sorry for bumping this back up but again, these videos are just skanky! Was this the goal? I am convinced Beyonce's career would not be where it is, if she had dark skin. | |

I'm ashamed to say I watched the show | |

Their slutiness doesn't bother me but I really wish antares was banned. I hear it on 99% of songs these days. It drives me nuts.
Please, learn how to sing on pitch or stay home. You're not fooling anyone. If you need a vocal producer to sound good you should probably just give up and get a job at Walmart....or in these girls' case...your local strip joint. | |

Anyway, music can't sink any lower than shit hop and this type of act gets all its tools from shit hop. | |

I think you're looking at it all wrong.
It's not so much that music has sunk to a new low as it is that skankiness has risen to a new high. | |
