Idolator

From wire services:

"PopoZão," a Brazilian hip-hop song about oversized female buttocks, died today. It was nine months old.

Originally released by rapper Kevin Federline as a single in January, "PopoZão" was killed when Federline announced that the song would not appear on his upcoming album Playing With Fire. Throughout its short life, "PopoZão"—which implored listeners to "Bring that Brazil booty on the floor; Up, down, all around, work that shit to the funky sound"—achieved notoriety on the Internet, where it inspired numerous parodies. But experts believe nothing was more harmful to the song's health than Federline's own spoken-word introduction on MTV, where he noted that he had written "...a Brazilian ass-shaker. Can I say that? Right on."

The song's demise was mourned in the music blogopshere, where it had been a go-to punchline throughout much of the summer.

"This is the end of an era," noted Scott "Stereogum" Stereogum. "I can only hope Scott Stapp releases another solo record in the fourth quarter."

The song is survived by a video and an eMusic download.
