    Up until a week ago at the Buffalo Bills game (yeah), I had been living in such a pleasant bubble that didn't include this song. I almost made it out of 2007.

    Dear Hip Hop, try harder. Or just get dalas to read your lyrics because it's much more amusing!

    Couldn't agree more. And that piece of crap gets so much radio play.

    you hate line dancing? I, like most of the country never actually paid any attention to the lyrics but now that you've recited the lyrics I feel more than a little stupid and I agree. it is retarded.
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    You know, I suppose people should have fun however they want to, but I do think the lyrics of this song are over the line for how mainstream it is.

  • Loonachic 9 months ago
    AGREED! and i hate the way they spelled that shit. Souldja or some CRAP!
  • Loonachic 9 months ago
    ps. rap is so dead anyway.
  • Elemeno Pee 9 months ago
    You are so not my contact anymore. It's SOULJA, Loona!


    Oh wait, that's right.... you're too busy actually accomplishing real goals to have such useless knowledge. So, uh, right on.
  • Loonachic 9 months ago
    omg. i'm so sorry. ROFL!
  • Tommy Penner 9 months ago
    Rap=2005-2007 as Boy Bands=1998-2002

    Soulja Boy is the new Backstreet!

    if this song wins a grammy, i quit music.
  •  
  • Elemeno Pee 9 months ago
    Ahahaha....

    This song is a perfect example of what the music industry thrives on now. If you shove something down enough throats, people will start to buy into it. Even if it's really bad.


    VERDUGO TELLEM!

    I always thought it said "superman". It's the most annoying song i've ever heard. Believe it or not but it's incredibly easy if you have the tools to produce a sad song like that. :D Happy new year.
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    It does say "Superman" in the chorus, which I only recited once here. That part is the part that most convinces me that someone with Down's Syndrome wrote this song. No offense to people with Down's Syndrome, but you *know* they'd be into a song where they get to pretend to be Superman!
  • DJNewStyle 9 months ago
    To "superman a ho" is to leave your would-be descendants on promiscuous woman's back, use it as an adhesive and stick a bedsheet to it, so as to fashion a cape. After doing so, you must flee and leave her there in her newly heroic state.

    I love that people encouraged their children to sing along to this.

    Sometimes there's an advantage living on the other side of the globe. Never heard or seen this, oh how lucky I am. But on the other hand the musicindustry tortures us with similar songs here and they are sponsoring tv-shows to find "new talents" to perform their "dumb" industrial shit.
  •  
  • Devonte MacGlashan 9 months ago
    I couldn't agree more although I think the song is more a fun/dance song rather than a meaningful lyrical one. I definitely wouldn't say watch out Alanis Morissette!
  •  
  • Saphire769 9 months ago
    hahaha I'm not entirely sure why but the last part reminded me of Beaker on the Muppet Show :D

  • Pirata718 9 months ago
    wow, what a rant, dalas! haha wow i can actually say i have NOT heard that song yet and im really pretty happy for once that school has me leading such a sheltered life. phew. dalas, you are flippin hilarious. :D
  •  
  • Does anyone really know what the lyrics are?

    hahaha


    I like how you read it

    hahaha

    this song makes me die a little on the insides.

    Best part of the lyrics: "local party."

    I love it when rappers randomly delve into grandma-speak.

    i love the fact a successful (popular) rapper can make the most outdated term the new cool thing to say
  •  
  • andre 3000 9 months ago
    I loathe that song with every fiber of my still living being.

    But you reading it made it sound like something Lord Tennyson might write. Bravo!

  • nshack 9 months ago
    At our school we had a controversy because the kids tried to sneak the lyrics onto their "homecoming" t-shirts. It's a white suburban school and they are enamored with this drivel. Also, if you look up some of the nonsensical lyrics in "urban dictionary" you might find some underground meaning, which is even more infantile. This led to hundreds of t-shirts being disposed of at our school, and, of course the song became even more popular. Ouch. I wish I knew nothing about it. Luckily, I haven't seen the dance... Dalas, this is so worthy of a rant.
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    Yeah, when I briefly taught kids they severely depressed me with their bad taste.
  •  
  • LB 9 months ago
    dalas you should be a rapper. or better yet start a channel of videos dedicated to reading ridiculous lyrics of the best worst songs.

  • Nick Gray 9 months ago
    I like the song and the dance! And yes, I thought The Macarena was cool.
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    To each his own! Since you're from Atlanta, you have more reason to like it.

  • William Wilkinson 9 months ago

  • on and on 9 months ago
    I agree soooooooooo so so so much.
    And also, do you know what "superman dat ho (hoe?)" ALLEGEDLY means? urbandictionary it.
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    Whoa!
  • Blake Whitman staff 9 months ago

  • SectionJake 9 months ago
    you the man dalas!
  •  
  • Jacob 9 months ago
  • Alex Itin 9 months ago
    okay that's my first exposure to the song.
    It has a hook, there's no denying.
  • Alex Itin 9 months ago
    now I'm finding it everywhere and finding it annoying after 48 hours of exposure.
  •  
  • Blake Whitman staff 9 months ago
    this reminds me of Idiocracy.
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    Yeah, it reminds me of that also.
  • Elemeno Pee 9 months ago
    Why come?

  • ishan 9 months ago
    my conspiracy elves tell me that it's just a u.s. army recruitment psy-ops program to ploy the youth of our nation into associating "soldier boys" with having a mindless good time.

    soul jah he is not singing about.
  •  
  • Obar 9 months ago
    this song, like most songs played , should not be allowed on public radio...
    they dont let you say fuck or cuntshit on the radio... not because they sound ugly, they dont let you say it cause of their meanings... id rather hear about fucking than "Superman"ing and "supersoaking" any day of the week.
  • Tommy Penner 9 months ago
    This song came on at the bar last night, and as it is, my friend told me what "spiderman"-ing is.

    Yay.
  •  
  • Mark Jensen 9 months ago
    too funny! and i agree :)

  • Giancarlo 9 months ago
    I especially liked the end when you sing, "ee-me me-me my-me mo..." LOL!
  •  
  • uncleboatshoes 9 months ago
    DISAGREE!

    use of steel drum in popular music = awesome for me

    dancing = awesome.

    i would much rather have fun yelling about supermaning hos while bopping around than listening to thoughtful lyrics about feelings 90% of the time.

    the dude was on virb so early (soulja boy). he friended me like the first day. (bonus points)

    it's actually more of a rip of a really good song called "Ain't Gon Let Up" by Lil' Yola aka DG Yola aka Yola Da Great
  • uncleboatshoes 9 months ago
    i also think the dance is much more complicated and hard to do well than the macarena.
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    I think you've defended your affection for this song and dance well.
  • uncleboatshoes 9 months ago
    Well, hey, you gotta crank something!
  • victoria 9 months ago
    let's see that dance!

  • Sean Nelson staff 9 months ago
    yeah utter crap.

    Avril's Girlfriend song is so much better.
  •  
  • eric cwiertny 9 months ago
    I'm so glad I've somehow missed hearing that song... Although, Dalas, your version was pretty "fly"! :-)
  •  
  • Max Lipchitz 9 months ago
    truth.
  •  
  • Dave Koen 9 months ago
    I am so glad I successfully made it through 2007 without hearing this song.

    Favorite part:
    "I got me some bathing apes. Which is a type of clothing if you're not into street slang..."

  • cporridge 9 months ago
    Would you please read some Gertrude Stein in front of some red?
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    If you provide the red. I don't think I have any.

  • DJNewStyle 9 months ago
    the top referring site describes dalas as "soy latte white man"
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    They call me lots of other hilarious stuff in the comments, but overall, they agree!
  • DJNewStyle 9 months ago
    It is good to see that people of all races can band together against shitty music.
  • Peter Martin 9 months ago
    Second reply on the referring site post:

    "pretty sure I buy my weed off of this dude."

    Have to admit that made me laugh violently enough to bring on a coughing fit.

  • zach marsh 9 months ago
    good hip-hop is still kicking in the underground. it's just hiding from the crap that is roaming free in the streets. check out Diverse, he's awesome.

    p.s. - Dalas, your hair is amazing bro. haha
  • dalas verdugo staff 9 months ago
    Yeah, that's true. Thanks.
  • victoria 9 months ago
    heheh... are you saying that about your hair or about good hip-hop?
  •  
  • victoria 9 months ago
    sooooo funny.
    will you show us the dance now??

    I'm happy to say that I have never heard this song. I did however enjoy your video.

    This is exactly why I don't listen to the radio anymore.

  • Colin 2 months ago
    come on, a kid made a song on his computer and a few months later everyone on planet earth is dancing and singing along with it? that's amazing.

    I think that's worth discussing more than the fact that lame trends exist, and managed to exist (yet again!) in 2007.
