Presenting the bathetic follow up to “Crank That,” as teen hip-hop phenom Soulja Boy discovers puppy love and evidences some neurological impairment that forces him to shout his trademark “YOOOOOOOOU” uncontrollably over the smooth R&B chorus. If the song’s squeaky, repetitive slow-jam synth-hook is as evil on the first play as “Beautiful Girls” was by the tenth, the mumbly “Soulja Girl” and its grating, demo-quality keyboard patches lack even the old-school ear-pleasing qualities Sean Kingston’s producers got when they swiped the melody from “Stand By Me.” And it’s currently YouTube’s No. 3 most-played clip, so forewarned if you plan on turning on your radio in the next few months.
Soulja Boy – “Soulja Girl” [OnSmash]
“Super soak that ho” is so handy for headlines.
It’s hard to insult the intelligence of unintelligent people, but this song pulls it off.
…once again, a tribute to ringtones everywhere. I guarantee this song, and that other one, were made to sell ringtones. It’s almost polyphonic. Just another nail in the music-today coffin. Ugh.
