Rebecca Black

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>You all should know her by now, she is everywhere right now. All because of a stupid song she made called "Friday" YouTube</a> - Rebecca Black - Friday (OFFICIAL VIDEO) So what do you think of the song and the girl? </p>

<p>Personally, I hate the song. But I don't hate the girl, she is a little kid (13) and most kids that age don't make epic songs. People are sending her death threats, and I think that is going way to far.</p>

<p>And for a CC twist to this, eventually she will fade away, and I wonder when she applies for college, would this be a good or bad EC/recognition?</p>

<p>I agree with you. I like this take on it: [Ridiculed</a> YouTube Singer Rebecca Black Grabs A Mountain Of Bull By The Horns : Monkey See : NPR](<a href=“Ridiculed YouTube Singer Rebecca Black Grabs A Mountain Of Bull By The Horns : NPR”>Ridiculed YouTube Singer Rebecca Black Grabs A Mountain Of Bull By The Horns : NPR)</p>

<p>I completely agree- the song should be attacked, not the kid. What’s sad is that it wasn’t written by a 13 year old…the song points out all that’s wrong with pop music today, but I don’t know how people get the idea that it’s ok to bully a little girl who’s barely a teenager…</p>

<p>Friedegg, friedegg.</p>

<p>I’m thinking that advanced auto-tune could make even the most tone-deaf singers “the next Justin Bieber”.</p>

8

<p>^thing is she can actually sing- not gifted or anything, but she’s far from tone deaf. if you watch her interview on good morning america you can hear her sing, and she’s actually fine. i do hate auto-tune though…(except when used well on youtube ;))</p>

<p>To me the song is no less ridiculous than most mainstream pop music. The lyrics actually make more sense than “I gotta feeling” and the like.</p>

10

<p>I think its a lot worse than mainstream. Its sounds like kidzbop.</p>

11

<p>Lol I actually don’t mind the song, it’s catchy :stuck_out_tongue: And she’s going to my hs next year but I will have graduated by then…</p>

12

<p>^Yeah. She might not be in high school next year. Her career’s kind of taking off. lol</p>

<p>But seriously, she needs to milk this for all its worth and release another song… only this time one with her actual voice (because that’s semi-decent).</p>

<p>She’s got all eyes on her. If she ever wants to get anywhere, she needs to USE the publicity she’s been given. It’s a tremendous opportunity that many want-to-be singers would be begging for.</p>

13

<p>hmm, I think people should cut black some slack. But AU girls is right–she should use this publicity.</p>

14

<p>^^She released Prom Night and an acoustic version of Friday.</p>

<p>I like the song in the "■■■■ this is so ridiculously sucky and stupid that I find it very entertaining :smiley: " way</p>
